Here is another small modified plugin that auto-escapes your code, nicely displays line numbers and uses valid XHTML. This plugin is based off of SemCodeFix, and adds many of the features I wanted in my code plugin.

Download:
Wordpress Code Escape

Directions:
Download the file and save it as a .php file.
Upload to your plugins directory.
Activate it.
You may optionally choose to add the following style information to your theme’s style.css.

1. .code_child {
2. font-family:"Courier New", Courier, monospace;
3. white-space:pre;
4. width:90%;
5. background-color: #F4F4F4 !important;
6. overflow:auto;
7. border:1px inset;
8. margin:10px;
9. }
10. ol.code_child li{
11. margin:0;
12. padding:0 !important;
13. line-height:100% !important;
14. margin-bottom: -8px;
15. margin-bottom: expression(5 +"px");
16. margin-left: expression(35 + "px");
17. }
18. Use the following to copy and paste the code.
    .code_child { font-family:"Courier New", Courier, monospace; white-space:pre; width:90%; background-color: #F4F4F4 !important; overflow:auto; border:1px inset; margin:10px; } ol.code_child li{ margin:0; padding:0 !important; line-height:100% !important; margin-bottom: -8px; margin-bottom: expression(5 +"px"); margin-left: expression(35 + "px"); }

This was an extremely quick project to turn spreadsheet data into an XHTML table. The plugin is quite simple to use, just copy some data from a spreadsheet ( or the visible part of an XHTML table) and paste it into a blog post between the tags [table] and [/table] (make sure that columns are tab separated and rows are on their own line). This is a no frills plugin. The first row is used as the column names and is added to a thead tag. Anything can be added to the [table] tag after “table” and it will become the table’s caption. EX [table "This is an example table"]

So this:

1. [table "This is an example table"]
2. gf sfg sfcx dfg
3. asd sd dsfs
4. xcv fds sgdf
5. dfg dfg dfg
6. dfg dfg dfg
7. [/table]

Becomes:

Installation:

1. Copy and Paste the contents of the texbox below into a .php file.
2. Upload and activate.

1. <?php
2. /* Plugin Name: Tabeler Plugin URI: http://anthologyoi.com/plugins/ Description: This plugin allows you to copy data directly from a spreadsheet and paste it into your blog, and will automatically create a table for it.

The Wordpress Access Keys Plugin a allows you to add access keys to pages and categories to improve accessibility of your WordPress website. This works with any page or category list that is called with wp_list pages and wp_list_categories respectively. This plugin works in all WordPRess versions from 2.1 - 2.5.

Screenshot of Admin Panel:

Demo:
The About page on this site has an access key of 6 and the site map has an access key of 3.

Download:
Access Keys version 1.0

Installation:

1. Download the zip file, unzip it and upload to your wp-content/plugins folder
2. Upload to your plugin directory.
3. Activate.
4. Go to the Admin Menu under Manage named Access Keys.
5. Read the instructions.

Use:
Use of this plugin is simple. On the Admin panel it lists pages and categories with a current access key, and in a separate list it lists the pages and categories without access keys. Just add an access key just type an access key in a text box and then click the save button.

I use the future posts a lot. In fact, this post you are reading now was written almost a week before it was posted –actually I used this plugin to post about this plugin, but that is getting off topic. Anyway, if you use future posts a lot also you probably find yourself looking back and forth from your post list to a calendar or recording your future posts on a calendar to avoid having a double post on a single day and then none for three days. On top of that there are the frequent “How many days are in March again” checks.

Well this plugin gets rid of all of that. It adds a simple month-by-month calendar that shows all the months you have future posts for (and the current month no matter what), it highlights the days you have posts for, and as an added bonus if you click a day the Post Timestamp boxes change to that day, month and year (although it doesn’t check the edit timestamp box to avoid accidental changes).

Unfortunately this is only for Wordpress 2.1

The Super Category plugin allows you to have multiple websites running off of one install and one database (one set of tables). The websites can share content if you wish it, and can have different titles, descriptions and themes. This plugin is a true plugin: there are NO HACKS and NO THEME EDITS of any kind. The plugin works with any other plugins and themes that use Wordpress’ built in APIs, and features modular functions that can even make other plugins that use custom queries work also.

If you find a problem with the plugin please let me know what happened using as much detail as possible. Unfortunately, I cannot currently ensure every plugin works with this plugin, so please let me know which ones don’t work. I will try to have a fix within a few weeks.
