WP-Blocks

Description

WP-Blocks a simple plugin designed to help you edit discrete bits of template content via the WordPress admin interface. A good example would be your sidebar bio, footer copyright notice or a simple events listing. It’s not intended to be tied in with posts and pages like some other plugins.

Here’s what you need to know:

  • WP-Blocks can be accessed via the Settings menu in the WordPress admin (I may move this in time)
  • The plugin requires PHP5 (apologies to those on PHP4)
  • I have developed and tested this plugin on WordPress Version 3.0 and above
  • It “should” work on earlier versions, as far as I know I haven’t used any brand spanking new API calls
  • Every “block”, whether visible or not will incur a database query so use of a caching plugin is encouraged
