WP 1.5 and LDAP integeration: Wow! Now this is pretty cool and opens up a whole new corporate world of blogging to WordPress. I should look through the java classes that connects to the LDAP servers. This could be useful elsewhere. Thanks Photomatt

WordPress 1.5 User Levels: For those of you that use user levels in WordPress, here is a detailed run down of all user levels in WordPress. It is a wonder how much information is accumulated in the codex already. A search there brings up almost everything you ever wanted to know about WordPress.

WP 1.5 Theme: Neptune: A three column, shadowed WordPress 1.5 theme that catches the eye. Very unlike the minimalistic themes we have been seeing recently.

I am not sure if that was entirely correct terminology. What I am looking to collect are names, links, sources etc of applications that will let you record your voice to MP3 format, connect to your blog tool (Worpress support preferred), create a post with an enclosure (WordPress would just require a link, enclosures created automatically), post it via XMLRPC and upload the MP3 via FTP. A myriad of applications to download and listen to Podcasts are available, then why has this other market not seen much action? If there were such a tool, would anyone be interested in using it (read: I would write one if there was any audience for it)? What about Applescripts? I vaguely remember seeing something about an applescript that would do some or all of the above and more. Please leave me some suggestions. The more important ones will be added to this post […]

Technorati Tags:A detailed writeup on Technorati Tags with lists of tools to use, blog implementation and even a primer on tag spamming. Thanks Sifry

I just released a new theme called ‘NoLimits’ from WPThemes.Info. Check it out !!!

Well, WPBlacklist 2.9 with support for WP 1.5 is here 🙂 The only new feature in this release is the addition of support for running trackbacks and pingbacks thorugh the blacklist. Unfortunately, this release probably will not work with WP 1.2 – I haven’t had the time to test it or to find a means of ensuring backward compatibility. It however does work pretty well against the new trackback spam :p You can download it from the WPBlacklist page

If you are experiencing slow posting in WordPress 1.2 or below (like I did this morning) or get fsockopen() errors from PHP, it might be related to geourl problems. Look under options->Miscellaneous and uncheck the box that says “Use Geographic Tracking Features”. Try posting again to see if the speed has returned. Considering the problems I have had with GeoURL recently, I am quite glad this is out of the WordPress 1.5 core (last I remember from the CVS logs).
