MaisonBisson And unAPI

October 29, 2007 – 4:48 am

Thanks to Mike Giarlo’s unAPI Server for WordPress. Now if only there were a library catalog built on WordPress, I could probably just drop it in.

Update: bugfix release b2v7 available.
It’s been a while since I released a new version of bsuite, my multi-purpose WordPress plugin. I’d been hoping to finish up a series of new features, but those have been delayed and this is mostly just a collection of bugfixes. This update is recommended [...]

WordPress Plugin: Add To del.icio.us

January 16, 2006 – 9:27 pm

I’m not running it here (only because I’m too lazy), but I was happy to find Arne Brachold’s Del.icio.us - Bookmark this! WordPress Plugin. It puts a sweet Bookmark on del.icio.us link whereever you call this function: <?php dbt_getLinkTag(?Bookmark on del.icio.us?); ?>
Arne also wrote the Google sitemap plugin I use (though it turns out I’m [...]

WordPress 2.0 & bsuite

December 31, 2005 – 10:24 am

Update: bugfix release b2v6 available.
WordPress 2.0 is out and available for download now. I don’t know how the development team did it — I mean with the holidays and all — but here it is. And now I have to admit that I haven’t even played with the betas, so I’ve got no clue [...]

The first thing we all have to agree on is that bsuite is the replacement for bstat. The name change reflects that fact that the plugin is doing a lot more than simply track page loads. The most exciting new feature is a module I can’t help but call [...]

bsuggestive and bsuite Tag Support

November 27, 2005 – 8:45 pm

bsuite, the follow-up to bstat, now includes a module called ?bsuggestive? that recommends related posts based on the current post’s tags or alternate posts based on your search words when you arrive from a recognized search engine.
That is, bsuggestive does two neat things:
First, visitors will see a section in each post with links to other [...]

bsuite_innerindex WordPress Plugin

September 29, 2005 – 7:10 am

[[pageindex]]
About
?Blogging? typically connotes short-form writing that needs little internal structure, but that’s no reason to cramp your style. As people start to explore WordPress’s Pages feature, it seems likely that we’ll need a way to structure content within posts or pages sooner or later. That’s why I’m working on bsuite_innerindex.
It’s a WordPress Plugin that puts [...]

bsuite_geocode Plugin For WordPress

September 26, 2005 – 5:57 pm

I’m a big fan of the WP Geo plugin, but I want more.
My biggest complaint is that I want to insert coordinates using Google Maps or MultiMap URLs, rather than insert them in the modified story editor. So I wrote a bit of code that reads through the URLs in a post, finds the ?maps.google? [...]

bstat Japan!

September 19, 2005 – 6:08 pm

It looks like bstat has been localized for Japan! With that in mind, I’d love to hear from international users about what I can do to make localization easier. There will be some big changes in the transition to bsuite, and it might be a good time to make sure I’m properly supporting WP’s translation [...]
