This modification allows blog authors to assign a minimum user level required to view each post. The default value is zero (retroactively applied to all existing posts), which means anyone can see the post.

[Continue Reading...]The WP Blacklist hack has been updated to a plugin to work with WP 1.2 and has also had a few new features added such as the ability to ban IPs and the option to directly import entries directly from Jay Allen’s centralized blacklist. Actually, the latter feature was already there but this release fixes some regex incompatibilities between Jay Allen’s list and PHP. You can download the plugin here.
[Continue Reading...]I have released an extensive hack for WordPress 1.2+ to give you post per post Copyrighting ability. You can see more about it over on my blog, and you can also see it running there as well. This feature is very handy for those of us who like to provide content under different licenses.
[Continue Reading...]Redemption in a blog has a really nice (and concise) writeup on setting up Ping-O-Matic to be pinged from your Movable Type installation. If you dont know about Ping-O-Matic already, it is a way to ping a bunch of services (once you update your blog) by pinging their RPC server. More information here.
[Continue Reading...]I redid and reworked the Nicer Archives for WordPress. The archives list can be sorted by date and category and filtered by author and year. All of the functions, as far as I tested, are working. The example archives are here: http://mindfulmusings.net/weblog/narchives.php Download php file from here: http://weblogtoolscollection.com/b2-img/narchives.phps The install is really simple. Just rename the downloaded file to narchives.php and copy it to the root of your blog and create a link from your index.php.
[Continue Reading...]I have started upgrading my blogs to WordPress 1.2 and there might be some disruption in services in the process. Thank you for bearing with me. In the meantime, please check out the new theme/style for my Mindful Musings blog. I opted for a very simplistic, almost MT like look to prove to some of the “designers” that all WordPress blogs do not have to look the same. If there is any interest in that template, I will release the code for distribution. Please let me know what you think.
[Continue Reading...]WordPress 1.2 “Mingus” is out. I am really excited about this release and will be upgrading most of my hacks and my plugins when I get a chance. This blog, as well as a couple of others will get upgraded as time goes on. In the meantime, here is a very small changelog. The rest of the *big* changelog can be found at the WordPress Wiki. That would also be a very good resource for upgrades etc. * Sub-categories: Categories can be arranged hierarchically and infinitely deep. Multiple categories combined with sub-categories gives WordPress the most comprehensive taxonomy system of any blogging software available. * OPML Export and Import: You can import and export OPML to systems like Bloglines or desktop aggregators like NetNewsWire and FeedDemon. * Automatic Thumbnail Creation System: WordPress has a refined upload feature that automatically creates thumbnails any size you want. * Encyrpted passwords and cookies: [...]
[Continue Reading...]For everyone having problems with this hack, I have found a solution thanks to testing from Kitten and Cytoplas (from #Wordpress). Please download the following file: http://weblogtoolscollection.com/b2-img/class-xmlrpc.phps rename it to class-xmlrpc.php and replace the original found in the wp-includes folder of your blog. This file has a bug from WordPress. You can download the new instructions from here: http://weblogtoolscollection.com/b2-img/ljautoupdate12.txt
[Continue Reading...]This is from the blurb on the page – “Your ISP offers you 30MB of disk space, but doesn’t tell you how much space is used! This tool enables you to get a usage piechart from your FTP service, showing which directories are taking the most space, and to drill down into those directories to see which are the largest files. Simply double-click on a pie segment to drill down!” I’ve been using it today to get a better picture of what’s going on with one of my domains, and it’s damned useful! It is not able to look into folders that have very restricted permissions – remember this is looking in from the outside so to speak – and I had to use the remote address as given by my ftp program for it to find the right path in, but it does do what it says. Why can’t [...]
