Beta Testing Self-Hosted WordPress Plugins

August 19, 2013 / Tom / 0 Comments

In three previous posts, I’ve mentioned that I’ve been slowly refocusing my own business to focus solely on working with WordPress. This particular focus includes:

Renaming the company
Doing a long, hard search for a support system that I like
Trying to find balance with the WordPress Plugins Repository
And even beginning to offer some online courses

In order to keep this momentum, albeit it very slow momentum, going, I’m looking to begin experimenting with self-hosting WordPress plugins. Specifically, I’m going to be using Auto Hosted.

And much like I did with support systems, I’m going to be evaluating it by actually, you know, using it.

But here’s the thing: I need your help.

Comment Images 1.12.0 Released

August 9, 2013 / Tom / 0 Comments

Earlier this week, I released a relatively significant update to Comment Images that introduced the ability to globally enable or disable comments on posts across the entire site.

Seriously. What if I told you?

Since that release, I’ve received a couple of comments and several emails all of which were asking for a few minor improvements to the functionality so, late last night, I rolled out another relatively significant update to the plugin.

Get An Input Element’s Type with jQuery

August 7, 2013 / Tom / 0 Comments

In a recent project, I’ve been working with large groups of input elements, and the course of action that’s taken depends on the type of element that raises the event.

Since so much of the project uses jQuery, I opted to write an extremely simple plugin that makes it easy to get an input’s type by calling a function on said element.

Comment Images 1.11.0 – Now Available

August 5, 2013 / Tom / 0 Comments

Last week, I had an interesting request for my Comment Images For WordPress plugin:

I wanted to make the default DISABLE so I could turn it ON on the ones I need it, instead of having to go through 200 posts and turn it OFF on 190 posts, that’s all. But if that’s not possible I understand.

Truth be told, this is a scenario that I’ve never thought of, but if you’re someone with a blog who has hundreds (or even thousands) of posts, then being able to disable or enable the feature across the board makes sense.

Retiring WP Audio Player For WordPress

August 5, 2013 / Tom / 0 Comments

With the recent release of WordPress 3.6 and its built-in support for audio files, I’m opting to to halt development on WP Audio Player for WordPress plugin.

Here’s the thing: This has nothing to do with WordPress folding something into core that was once available via plugins and putting a plugin “out of business.”

Mostly, it has to do with my personal preferences and opinion behind the core libraries used in WordPress 3.6.
