Weblog Tools Collection My Top 10 Best Wordpress Plugins « John Chow dot Com I get many people emailing me about all the various plugins I run on my blog. The emails come so often that I have decided to compile a list of the 10 WordPress plugins I am running. I also provide links to where you can download the plugins. Sidebar Widget The Sidebar Widget is one of the most useful plugins made for WordPress. AdSense Deluxe The AdSense-Deluxe WordPress Plugin allows you to add Google AdSense or Yahoo Publisher Network (YPN) ads to your WordPress posts.

Collapsable, Foldable, Expandable Category menus for Wordpress: The WordPress category list has a tendency to become unwieldy as the number of nested categories increases. The provided wp_list_cats template tag can display all top level categories, or only the categories within a parent, but does not allow for a collapsible categories list where only the currently active category is expanded to have its children displayed, all others are listed collapsed (folded) to their top-level parent. Fold Category List has been developed to meet that need, implementing the functionality of Fold Page List for WP categories. Internals Fold Category List is based upon wp_list_cats, and list_cats, modified and renamed for this plugin. New in 2.0 (06 January, 2008 — updated to version 2.02 on 09 January, 2008) The “biggie” here is that Fold Category List now supports for WP2.3+, while remaining compatible with previous versions of WP. New in 1.0 (release) onwards (18 February, 2007 — updated to version 1.11 on 20 February, 2007) New in 1.0b4 (28 January, 2006) Usage

Search Excerpt WordPress Plugin | FuCoder.com Abstract Search Exceprt plugin displays text snippets around found keywords, with matches highlighted, in a WordPress search. Download Download: Search Excerpt 1.2 (PHP, 9.8kb, 2006-07-24) Download: Search Excerpt 1.2 (ZIP, 3.3kb, 2006-07-24) Subversion Repository: svn.fucoder.com/fucoder/search-excerpt/ Usage Download the plugin file. About WordPress' searching capability is a bit mediocre at the moment. To have a more functional search, i.e. returning entries in the order of relevance, I think WordPress would need to either try to index the text (which is wha Search Reloaded plugin is about), or utilise MySQL's full-text search functions. To have a more meaningful result display, i.e. returning text snippets surrounding the matches, is however quite easy to achieve. It extracts out the search keywords, scan the content of matched post entries, and display document snippets around the keyword, with that specific keyword highlighted. Demonstration Customisation ... Implementation Okay. Support

Gengo Download Page »WordPress Multilingual Category Tagging with WordPress Category Tagging I do no longer develop this plugin. A new developer has picked it up, and you can find all the latest here: Category Tagging WordPress has a categorization system that lets users categorize posts. However, using categories is no longer state of the art: In the word wide web, tagging is established — and categorizing is obsolete. Tagging is quite different to categorizing since it is based on keywords, for details see Wikipedia’s articles Tags and Folksonomy. For using tags in WordPress, one of the following plugins is recommended: Both plugins offer the possibility to use tags in WordPress and provide additional features such as a tag cloud. However, if you do not need categories at all, why don’t you use the WordPress categories as tags? Category Tagging First of all, let’s summarize what is needed if we want to use tags on a blog: In addition, we could use the tags of each post to display a list of related posts.

Le meilleur des plugins pour Wordpress sur Fran6art.com Et oui, ça fait un bail que je n’ai pas fait une revue de ce qui se passe sur la planète WordPress ( depuis décembre 2008 si mes souvenirs sont bons… , mais j’ai finalement trouvé une “technique” qui me permette de bookmarker tout ce que je trouve et en faire des articles simples et [...] En fin de semaine dernière, je cherchais une solution originale pour afficher les archives sur le site d’un client. Ca m’a permis d’en découvrir certains très originaux comme Snazzy Archives, mais le client a fini par choisir Extended Live Archives.

Depuis ce matin, plusieurs personnes ( merci à elles !
