Have you tried contacting the owner of the site? They’d know!
I have on a couple of sites I have seem with these features. And non have replied. Maybe it is fear of competition – even though I am not looking to set up a template type site like this owner.
I was just hoping that someone on the forums would be able to look at it and go ” Oh, yeah that is x, y, and z plugins.”
They may, but it would just be a guess. And you’ll probably have to wait a while for an answer, because most of the volunteers here who could answer such questions are few and far between.
I’d say your best option – if the owner won’t answer – is to search yourself. wp-plugins.net has a bunch of them. but you can also google for wordpress plugins (with the specs you need), and you’ll get a bunch. The codex also has a list of WP Plugin sites to look through.
Hi doodlebee,
I’m the owner of the site above. Thanks for noticing. Here’s what we are using:
post image plugin to load the little thumbnails on the homepage
post star rating for the entry rating system
get recent comments for, well, recent comments
sideblog for the short entries on the side.
we also use a few other plugins for backend management, but nothing too fancy. oh, and some custom fields for the downloads.
cheers
