Updated plugins
Cache Images gives users the option to sideload images that are hosted on other domains to their own site.
eShop is an accessible shopping cart plugin for WordPress, packed with various features.
Mingle Forum allows you to easily and quickly put a Forum on your WordPress site/blog.
WordPress SEO is an all in one solution to search engine optimize your WordPress blog: SEO titles, meta descriptions, XML sitemaps and much more.
The cache images is pretty good. I was looking for it on oct 29 ( http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/q/3442/576 ) so that is why I find it funny to find it here again.
This plugin runs “afterwards” ideally you would want also functionality to have a sideload “immediately” when you edit a post. I have not found a plugin for that yet so this is the best option until now.
Edvard, in a new version (which is announced in this post), there is option for automatic caching (ie. when you save/publish post).
hello!
if the provider of my WP blog said that the theme I downloaded is already SEO optimized, should I still get the WordPess SEO plug-in? just so my blog will have a better ranking in Google 🙂
thank you!
James Huff, you made my day, cTabs and Mingle forum these two plugins are great.
