Another update on the new spam killing

Things were just going too smoothly. I thought my SK2 plugin was doing dandy, catching everything it was supposed to. And it was, though my average daily take has been hovering about 5 or 10 now. What should have been obvious was that I actually haven’t received any comments recently. I finally discovered why: there [...]

Enhanced Views plugin updated

I’ve made a minor update to my Enhanced Views plugin today. This one goes to great lengths to reduce the amount of memory used by the plugin to try to correct an issue with it running out of memory when there are a lot of WordPress categories in use. If you had no problems before, [...]

Image Headlines plugin updated

Since I so rarely update my plugins any more — and please don’t ask me about the core code contribution for the paged posts and comments functionality — when I do update one of them it is cause for awe and celebration. Such is the case for the update I’ve released for the Image Headlines [...]

The Enhanced Views Plugin

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR WORDPRESS 2.0 USERS: This plugin doesn’t work under WordPress 2.0.

A host of plugin updates

Most of my plugins received updates recently, so I figure I’d do a general announcement for those of you that use them. Image Headlines The Image Headlines plugin received a few updates one of which was a long-standing problem with bounding-box calculation, leading to text being cut off at the bottom. It’s recommended that, if you used [...]

“Where the hell are my comments?”

I’m a person that’s usually constantly tweaking my WordPress install. It’s a hobby. There are few things that provide as immediate of a sense of accomplishment as getting some sort of tweak or hack or plugin working and working well. It’s a far cry from my day job which has as its most exciting element [...]
