Site Stuff
News, Updates, etc.
Ok, first things first. I’ve upgraded to WordPress 2.7…have you? For the most part, my plugins still work work without need for an upgrade, with the exception of my CMS plugin. It needs some adjustment to account for the new menu system in 2.7. It’ll still work as intended, it just doesn’t fit in with [...]
Layout Change
Nothing major, but you might notice a new block below on the home page. I added a section (powered by FeedWordpress) to pull in my ride logs from VeLog via RSS. This way, I only have to remember to post them in one place, and they automagically get posted to the blog too. Isn’t Web [...]
Fun With Shell Scripts: autons
Being a freelance web developer, there are many times where I’m moving domains for clients (or more recently, myself), and need to know when the DNS entries change to point at the new version of a site. I could just keep submitting an nslookup request manually, but that requires me to stop whatever it is [...]
We’ve Moved!
I’m sure you noticed that things look a bit different around here. I figured as long as I was transferring the site to a new host (no more 1&1…hello DreamHost!), I’d do some early spring cleaning and spruce things up a bit.
New WordPress Plugin: CMS-Like Admin Menu
Want to run a simple website using WordPress Pages as a CMS, but don’t want (or need) the Post functionality? Want to do the same thing, but have Posts secondary to pages? This is the plugin for you. This plugin rewrites the Admin menu links for Write and Manage to default to using Pages instead [...]
New WordPress plugin: Post Links Redux
I’m working on a theme for a well-known webcomic (sorry, can’t say which yet), and needed the post navigation template tags in WordPress to behave differently. No one could point to an easy way to get them to work the way I needed them to, so I whipped up a quick plugin that changes the [...]
CTC – 1,000 Downloads and Counting!
Many thanks to the WordPress community for pushing my humble little widget/plugin past the 1,000 downloads mark since I added it to the official WordPress plugins browser. As of this morning, it has been downloaded 1,002 times since November 28th. YOU GUYS ROCK!
CTC – Version 3.0 Released!
I’m proud to announce the third major revision of my configurable tag cloud widget has been released this afternoon. The biggest change (and one of the most requested) is the ability to use the plugin without using widgets. It’s been a long time coming, and now it’s here. the other big addition is the ability [...]
CTC Update
Just wanted to give everyone a heads-up on the status of CTC. I’m still working on it when I can, but I gotta pay the bills. I’m hoping for a 3.0 release just after the first of the year. The big new feature in 3.0 is going to be (hopefully) implementing the tag cloud as [...]
CTC – Bugfix Version 2.51 Released
I posted a quickie update this morning to address the tag count function not working correctly. Turns out in doing some code cleanup, I inadvertently left one of the variable names that holds the count using the old name. It has been fixed, and you should get what you’re looking for. As always, you can [...]
