WordPress Plug-ins
Making Links in Posts from iPhone in WordPress
In my last post I was complaining about not being able to add links to posts from my iPhone. I was thinking about it again this morning (among the other limitations of the iPhone) when I remembered “hey, I know HTML”. Yes, that is right, I can hand code the link (oh the horror!).
So here [...]
Mobile Admin Plugin for WordPress is Awsome
It finally happened. Someone came out with a plugin so that you can comfortably blog from your iPhone. Jared Bangs and Dan Cameron put the work in and now I can finally blog from anywhere.
With the plugin I can assign categories, manage comments and a whole bunch of other things also. There are only 2 [...]
Posting a Photo from the iPhone
Well I found out the hard way that WordPress does not support posting photos via their post by email function.
I did a little searching and found the Postie plugin that allows you to do so ( sorry I cannot provide a link - the iPhone doesn’t have a way [...]
Image Manager for WordPress 2.1+
As you know I have been searching hign and low for a Desktop Blog Editor for Mac that works half way decent. I recently tried Ecto but was not impressed.
The biggest item that has been missing from all the Blog Editors is the ability to resize images easily within the post. So instead of looking [...]
Importing and Exporting from WordPress - WPexport Plugin
As mentioned in my previous post I had exported from a wordpress.com blog and imported to a self hosted WordPress setup.
The process was really easy and to be honest I was surprised.
In looking around to see if you could do an import/export from 2 standard Wordpress installs I found that only the hosted wordpress.com blogs [...]
WordPress 2.03 Update Focuses on Performance
I must have been asleep for the last week because an update to WordPress was released and I did not see it until yesterday.
In looking at the release notes it seems that a lot of the changes had to do with performance.
I have installed it here at idano but really did not see any difference. [...]
FAlbum Recent Pictures in Side Bar
I recently got an e-mail requesting how I got the recent photos in my side bar on my The Masters Family blog. This was done with using the FAlbum WordPress Plug-in By Elijah Cornell. I really dig this plug-in and subsequently it is responsible for me having 3 separate Flickr accounts of which 2 are [...]
Nailing Down Slow Performance in WordPress
I have been very frustrated over the last few weeks with the performance of a few of my WordPress web sites. At first I was convinced that it was my web host. I spent a couple of days yelling at them and making them look into the performance of their web and DB severs, switches, [...]
Fixing WordPress Performance Issues with WP-Cache Plug-in
I have been having performance issues over at 2 of my other sites - themastersfamily.net and themastershouse.net which are both run with WordPress. Pages were taking up to 30 seconds to load each. I put several calls into the hosting company that I am with but they did not see any issues on their end. [...]
Formating Fix for the Subscribe to Comments Plug-in
I found a temporary fix for the formatting for the Subscribe to Comments WordPress Plug-in.
I was forced into fixing it because I was trying to implement the plug-in on another web site and the formatting was broken there too.
You need to open the subscribe-to-comments.php file and go to line 36.
