SN Post Nav WordPress plugin v1.0 released

October 9th, 2008 @ 7:51 PM

Last night I was working on cleaning a few things up when I noticed that the titles in the post navigation at the top of some post pages were butting up against each other (I tend to have long post titles). Once I fixed it, I decided I may as well turn the code into a plugin in case anyone else finds it useful, so I did :-)

Here’s the description from the projects page:

SN Post Nav is a WordPress plugin that truncates long titles in post navigation on single post pages so the display doesn’t break and the titles fit on one line. You can see it in action on this post.

SN Archives WordPress plugin resurrected

October 8th, 2008 @ 5:53 PM

Since I’m now running WordPress again, I figured I may as well bring my old SN Archives WordPress plugin back to life so I cleaned up the code a little bit and am re-releasing it.

If you’d like to see it in action, check out the archives (hint: click one of the month names). You can find some additional info and the download on the projects page.

Enjoy.

Back to WordPress

September 29th, 2008 @ 7:42 PM

So, I’ve gone back to WordPress a month and a half after abandoning it. What can I say, I’m indecisive :-) Actually, I switched back for two main reasons…

  1. I wanted to turn comments back on.
  2. I wanted to be able use an iPhone app to post if the mood struck.

That being the case, my options were either go back to WordPress or take the time to code up and implement a comment system and the MetaWeblog API; neither of which I have the time to do. So, I guess from that perspective, the choice was easy.

The theme I’m using is a resurrected and updated version of the theme I built back when I first switched to WordPress (late 2005-early 2006). I might end up changing things up slightly, but I’m pretty happy with the result of the update. If you end up poking around the site, I’d really appreciate it if you let me know if you find something broken (or even something you don’t think works like it should). I think I’ve squashed most of the bugs, but I’m sure there are still a few lurking about.
