Github Ribbon Plugin now supports CSS 3 Ribbons

After releasing my Github Ribbon WordPress Plugin, I found that Jeff Balogh created a pure CSS3 version of the ribbons without using any images.

I took his code and encapsulated it into my Plugin and added an option to choose between the old image type ribbons and the new CSS3 ribbons.

The new CSS3 ribbons are really cool and you can see them in action in my blog. The only caveat is that, they don’t work in IE (but who cares ;))

Download

This is an optional update. If you want to use the cool CSS3 ribbons, then you can download the latest version of the Plugin from the Plugin’s homepage or update it using the Plugin installer.

RoloPress 1.5 released

We just released an update to RoloPress, a WordPress-based contact manager which is one of my pet projects.

Enhancements

There were lot of enhancements that went into this release. The following are some of the notable ones.

  • Tags are now supported on the front-end, including inline editing
  • Moved over to WordPress settings API.
  • Consolidated settings area for better admin navigation.

You can read the complete list in the announcement blog post.

Fixes

This release also includes couple of bug fixes which were reported in the forums. Notable among them are

  • “Recent Notes” works better.
  • Phone number / IM field deletion on edit has been fixed.

Plugins

This release also has a couple of Plugins added to the core, which can be activated separately.

  1. RoloPress Import: probably our most requested feature.  You can now import any Outlook CSV file into RoloPress.  We choose Outlook CSV because most contact managers allow you to export in this format.
  2. Google Maps for RoloPress: View a google map of any address in RoloPress. You can see an example on demo.rolopress.com.

Third developer

Another important milestone of this release is that, this release includes code from a third developer apart from me and Steve. The third developer is Mike Whitfield, who contributed the front-end tag editing code. Welcome Mike 🙂

Download

You can download the latest version from the homepage and if you are interested, you can check out the source code at github.

Try it out and if you have any feedback, please post it here or in the forums.

Google Scribe Plugin now has an option to disable it

One of the main complaints I heard about my Google Scribe Plugin is that, certain users found it distracting and wanted a way to disable it.

In the first version of the Plugin, you have to manually disable it for every page load. Now, I have added an option in the comment form, so that end users who visit your site can disable it, if they want to.

This preference is stored in the user’s browser as a cookie and so next time when he tries to comment on any other page/post from your blog it will not be enabled till he enables it.

Download

This is an optional update. If you want the ability to disable it, then you can download the latest version of the Plugin from the Plugin’s homepage or update it using the Plugin installer.

Feedback

Please keep the feedback coming and if you want me to add any new features or find a bug, please leave a comment.
