This plugin has been retired. No further development will occur on it.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

The Opt-In Front Page plugin lets you add posts to your front page on an opt-in basis, rather than remove posts on an opt-out basis. This allows you to manage any number of asides categories.<\/p>\n\n

In short, only posts in your \"Blog\" (or \"News\") category will appear on your front page and its RSS feed when you use this plugin.<\/p>\n\n

It changes your main category's url as relevant, and it fallbacks to normal blog mode when no 'blog' (or 'news') category exists or when the latter is empty.<\/p>\n\n

You can safely change your \"Blog\" or \"News\" category's name after it is created: The opt-in front page plugin looks for the category with a slug of \"blog\" or \"news\".<\/p>\n\n

If no posts can be found in the blog or news category then all posts will be displayed.<\/p>\n\n

Auto-installer<\/h4>\n\n

Please note that Opt-in front page automatically creates\/fills in the needed main category when it activates. You can always browse Posts \/ Categories to delete it.<\/p>\n\n

Help Me!<\/h4>\n\n

No further support is provided.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Upload the plugin folder to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n
  3. Create a WordPress Category called 'Blog' or 'News'. You can safely rename it afterwards -- what really counts is a slug of 'blog' or 'news'.<\/li>\n
  4. Set the Front page displays setting under Settings->Ready to 'Your latest posts'.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
