[Continue Reading...]CowPimp (who is taking donations for a digicam BTW, hint hint) has come up with a sweet way to cache your WordPress pages. I am going to try it out on this blog. From his post This is a plugin for WordPress that caches pages. To use it, you simply install the plugin and turn it on. There is no need to edit your templates. Why would you want to do this? This reduces the load on the PHP interpreter and on the mysql database. It also allows the site to be fully functional even if the mysql database is down. Download the cache plugin here: http://www.cowpimp.com/archives/2004/06/08/staticize-plugin-for-wordpress/
[Continue Reading...]I had seen a couple of “Related Posts” implementations for WordPress and other blogs and they did not really make much sense to me. Once I had the code for contextual searches, the related posts plugin was a simple extension of that search code. This plugin has the following features: -related posts from your own blog, so more linkage -extremely customizeable output -links listed according to relevance -“fuzzy” matching of posts/titles -very easy install You can see an implementation of this on this blog. Just click on the permalink of any entry and look for the titles at the bottom of the post content. Download the plugin from here: http://weblogtoolscollection.com/b2-img/related.zip Download the updated version of Contextual Related Posts.

[Continue Reading...]Anne van Kesteren gave me some code to make intelligent searches inside WordPress and I wrapped it up in a nice install tutorial. Some of the features of this hack includes -text based “fuzzy” searches within WordPress -a nice Google like interface which is very customizeable -search results with decreasing relevance to search topic -trap for words which are less than four letters long, the search then gets routed through the default WP search -“Next results” button which shows the next 10 (or less) results in relevance -very simple installation with no effect on future upgrades Test install is on this blog. Simply search for something from the form on the right. Please post suggestions/bugs. Download the zip file here: http://weblogtoolscollection.com/b2-img/search.zip
