Subscribe to Comments Share This Mark Ghosh’s comments during episode 39 of The WordPress Podcast recorded live at WordCamp Dallas 2008 about Bad Behavior and high server usage prompted a response from the plugin’s author, Michael Hampton. Automattic CEO and WordPress project leader Matt Mullenweg was a guest on episode 17 of the WordPress Weekly podcast with Jeff Chandler, and during the show, I asked Matt why WordCamp San Francisco, scheduled this upcoming August 16th at the Mission Bay Conference Center on the campus of the University of California at San Francisco, would be only one day instead of two, as it had been in previous years, as well as the overlap between it and the New Media Expo. WP Comment Remix is an entrant into the current Weblog Tools Collection plugin competition and it promises to bring “a plethora of new options and features to WordPress.” Ronald Huereca reviewed it at Weblog Tools Collection Videos. Some of the features it includes are: Reply and quote links for commenters - You can add a Reply link to each comment, which, when clicked, adds “@OriginalPoster”, and links it to the anchor of that comment. Also, clicking the Quote link has a similar action to the Reply link, but it adds the entire comment in a blockquote tag. Comment Ordering - You can choose how you want to order the comments for your readers - By Author name or Date, and Ascending or Descending Either separate or remove trackbacks- You can choose to separate the Trackbacks from the comments and move them to the bottom of the list, or remove them completely Comment Tags - allow your readers (and you) to find comments more easily, instead of having to read through potentially hundreds of comments in a single post to find something specific Mark comments as ‘In Need Of Reply’ - adds a button, similar to the “Awaiting Moderation” button that shows up on the right hand side of the Comments menu link. The new button tells you how many comments are in need of a reply, and when clicked, takes you to a list of those comments.

Expect 2.5.1 within about a month. Beginning with WordPress 2.2 incoming links were changed from Technorati to Google Blog Search. If you’d prefer to revert back or use some other link reporter, find the Incoming Links Box’s “Edit” link in the Dashboard and change it to the RSS feed of your choosing. Issues with “disappearing plugins” relate to the plugin updater’s requirement that plugin authors build in additional functionality to work properly with the updater and submitting it to the plugin directory. Mark Jaquith discusses the genesis of his Comment Inbox plugin. Lorelle chimes in with Comment Ninja, a Firefox Greasemonkey script. We discussed security, including the possibility of an independent review of the core, as well as the direction themes and theme development might take in the future. Matt expressed a desire for improved client-side JavaScript performance. Ronald Huereca asked an interesting question about how developers might store data without creating new database tables. Scott Ellis asked for examples of WordPress being used as a CMS or other unusual uses, and the panel offers up Automattic’s Publisher Blog, Trumors and 71 Miles, amongst others. Rick Ankrum’s question about changes made to the default theme leads to an interesting throw-away comment by Mark Ghosh concerning a possible file integrity-checker making its way into future versions of WordPress. Jill McKeever’s question about image borders and a “word wrap button” stumps the panel. (Did we ever come up with an answer for this?) Someone asks about the future of Sandbox, and the possibility of incorporating its best features into the core. Several themes are discussed, including the Options theme and Regulus. Matt expressed frustration with the way WordPress handles menus as static pages and sub-pages, raising the possibility of choosing which items appear in the navigation menu. Mark Jaquith brings up his Page Links To plugin which allows you to point pages and menus to links outside of your blog’s domain. Matt also expressed frustration with the disparity between the image uploader and inserting an image from within the WYSIWYG editor, and brought up the possibility of an easy “image caption” function. Jeff Chandler’s frustration with the perception of WordPress not being able to withstand the “Digg effect” leads to a minor debate on caching. Matt effectively debunks the issue, blaming bad server configurations and cautioning against reliance on WP-Cache and WP-Super Cache. Mark Ghosh cautions against the use of Bad Behavior for high-traffic sites. © zaphod for The WordPress Podcast, 2008. | Permalink | 7 comments | Add to del.icio.us Post tags: Comment Ninja, Digg, Firefox, Google Blog Search, Greasemonkey, IE7, Internet Explorer, John Pozadzides, Jonathan Bailey, Lorelle Van Fossen, Mark Ghosh, Mark Jaquith, Matt Mullenweg, Options theme, Regulus, Sandbox, Technorati, WordCamp, WordCamp Dallas, wordcampdallas, WordPress 2.5 Feed enhanced by Better Feed from Ozh I’d intended to release this episode during the week of March 30th, days after it was recorded live at WordCamp Dallas, but problems with the recorded audio prevented doing so.
