The opt-in front page plugin lets you add posts to your front page on an opt-in basis, rather than remove them on an opt-out basis. Upon activating the plugin, only posts within the category with a slug of ‘blog’ will be displayed on your front page.

Note that the opt-in front page plugin de-facto enables you to use WordPress as a multi-blog platform:
- Set the default category’s slug to ‘blog’
- Create one category per user, or topic, whatever (your ‘blogs’)
- At your option, use the front page to opt-in all posts from all blogs, or as a separate blog with the more important stuff only

I've just downloaded and installed this plug-in. I love it! Only I get the following error:
WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax near '' at line 1]
SELECT COUNT(ID) FROM
WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax near '' at line 1]
SELECT COUNT(ID) FROM
Is there a workaround for this, please?

Does this change my rss feed? Does rss output all entries, or just the front page entries?
Posted 7 years ago #
just the page entries at the moment
i've plans to change the rss feed in the next version as well.

this page is generating lots of 404s. would a moderator be so kind to correct the initial url to:
yes, thats the problem i have too!
it probably doesnt match with 1.5.1 someone should modify that script :)

Is this working with 1.5.2? It doesn't seem to do anything. Also, can I edit the file so that it call using a custom slug with another title? I tried it both ways, but neither did anything.
Thanks!!!

the plugin fallbacks to no behavior if no posts qualify

The answer to my own question is yes. I changed the cagegory name, and now that is my front page. I guess it took a minute or so for my server to update...maybe I am to spoiled! Thanks for the great plugin!

This plugin is the holy grail for me, been searching for a long time for this kind of thing! However, when I set it all up my home page simply displays;
'Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mysql_real_escape_string() in /home/sites/site177/web/wp-content/plugins/sem-opt-in-front.php on line 134'
can anyone help?

Is it possible to opt-out a category? I have my wordpress blog set up with multiple categories and i'd rather have just one that I can choose to opt out.

you can use an asides plugin to opt stuff out. when you'll eventually decide to opt out a second and a third category, however, you'll curse yourself for not having decided to opt stuff in instead.
