  1. Meta keywords: why I don't use them (by @yoast) http://bit.ly/qNnQDU
  2. I just took the 2011 Wordpress survey. If you use Wordpress, help out the WP team and take the survey too: http://bit.ly/o6KWnS
  3. Great Wordpress plugin for taming an unruly collection of theme files in the Theme Editor area: Pretty Theme Files http://bit.ly/mNoucw
  4. ...functionally, it does the trick. And I'm going to do my best to get Javier to fix the naming issue.
  5. That plugin needs a little reform - it currently creates two new admin menu items called "Widgets" (which is already a WP default item), but
  6. This seems to be a solid solution for creating widgets with "WYSIWYG" editing capability - @marquex's "Widget Entries": http://bit.ly/lsuXHG
  7. Wordpress.com had a security incident on their servers; if you have a blog there you may want to change your password: http://bit.ly/h4uIiQ
  8. @mindfulmerchant Thanks for the #FF mention...how goes the battle? Any recent troubles?
  9. Here's a plugin I've been enjoying recently: WP Email Capture http://bit.ly/MoZWB A nice simple name/email collection tool. Thx @rhyswynne!
  10. This is juicy: 100 Free High Quality WordPress Themes http://bit.ly/dgvto7
  11. @ashleydmullin You don't generally install WordPress on your home computer. You install it on your web server. #wordpress #help
  12. To really get your feet wet with WP plugins, install the WordPress.org One-Click Install plugin (http://bit.ly/dXRSYv)
  13. @JulianMiller Hey Julian, I haven't tried this plugin, but it claims to do the polaroid effect in #wordpress: http://bit.ly/dIpBu2 #help
  14. @Mr_Stezz I've got to catch some sleep, but if you're still struggling later, I can probably find a plugin that will help. Just let me know.
  15. @Mr_Stezz Well, you can always try to find something close, and mutate it into something of your own. Most plugin licenses are fine w/that.
  16. @Mr_Stezz If you're set on hand-crafting the PHP then you're over my head, but there's a plugin for almost everything, and those I know.
  17. @Mr_Stezz Would it be OK if it was a plugin that did it? Can you explain the exact end result you're looking for?
  18. @Mr_Stezz I'm with you so far. Go on...what exactly has you stuck?
  19. @Mr_Stezz What did you need help with? I might be able to help you out.
  20. @DeeshaPhilyaw Great - feel free to @ me if you get hung up in the future. :-)
