Reader Vivien writes in: Is there a way to prevent WordPress from inserting the width and the height for images in the new 2.5 media manager? In short, yes, but it requires you to insert some code into your theme’s functions.php file. Fortunately, there is a WordPress filter we can use called image_downsize, which takes in three arguments (a boolean, an attachment ID, and a size string). add_filter('image_downsize', 'my_image_downsize',1,3); All I’m doing in the above filter is setting the filter name, the function to call (my_image_downsize), what priority I want the filter, and how many arguments the function takes. From there, I mimic the function image_downsize in the ‘wp-includes/media.php’ file, but do not return a width or a height. As a result, when the image is sent to the editor, no width or height is present. function my_image_downsize($value = false,$id = 0, $size = "medium") { if ( !wp_attachment_is_image($id) ) […]

[Continue Reading...]If you cannot see, the video, please visit this link: Dashboard Widget Manager – Video Plugin Review Today’s WordPress Plugin video review is of Dashboard Widget Manager by Viper007. Video Summary: Dashboard Widget Manager is a great way to customize the WordPress 2.5 dashboard. The plugin is great for multi-author blogs where each author would like a customizable dashboard. Admin can also set a default dashboard setup. The ability to re-order and customize certain dashboard widgets is a very nice feature. If possible, I’d like to see some extra widgets in the future. Pros: Customizing the dashboard is very easy if you are familiar with widgets. Cons: Minor style issues.

Ajax Edit Comments Part Deux
Ajax Edit Comments, the Digg like comment editor written by Ronald Huereca has undergone a significant rewrite. For those that are familiar with the older versions, you’re going to be in for quite the surprise as Ronald has rewritten the plugin from the ground up. The new version contains an updated interface, numerous backend improvements and a redesigned configuration page. One of the biggest changes I noticed with the new version is that you no longer can double click on the comment text to edit it inline. Instead, you click on an Edit link. After clicking the edit link, you’re presented with a screen similar to this one: Another visual change are the buttons/links that appear underneath every comment. The buttons give you access to edit the comment, moderate the comment, mark the comment as spam or deleting the comment. That comment interface looks little like this: In my opinion, […]
