In reply to: BLOG:CMS vs. WordPress(on the default template, curious ones should have a look at Dotclear, a French blogware engine (don’t know if it’s available in english) : installation wicked easy as WP, and default templates really clean and pretty) (have a look at http://hisyh.xaleo.fr/ or http://www.zuckonline.com/dotclear/index.php, default templates used there)

In reply to: Automatic excerptA tricky (maybe impossible) plugin idea could be to generate the excerpt from guessed keywords (most frequent words, excepting a predefined list containing “the, of, it …)

In reply to: [Req] “Keywords” field in the Post formBleh, forget it. This is exactly what the almighty “Custom field” can deal with.

In reply to: Statistics: how important are they to you?I’m not as much interested by statistics than by knowing if something I’ve written has a good chance of being read in the future, i.e. googled (mostly concerning code snippets in various language I post on my blog). So I wrote my own version of a “hit counter”, which keeps tracks of the number of page displays, direct hits, direct hits coming from Google, and even the number of times the Googlebot crawled that page 🙂

In reply to: The best designed WordPress powered sitesHmmm, I do not particularly agree with Matt about a few sites in his list 🙂

In reply to: Help me choose photo gallery plugin/script. . .… and nothing can beat Gallery’s awful HTML rendering : templates + CSS + “hard coded” in the PHP itself. What a mess, man.

In reply to: Random element in CSSandrisig : yes, I think too. I think I’ll go to something I wanted to do for a long time : use a server-side CSS file, ie wp-layout.php instead of .css, that would be a lot easier 🙂
Thanks all anywayForum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Random element in CSSHmm, actually I think it’s not even a .CSS but a php problem :
<body>
<img src="random.php />
<img src="random.php />
<img src="random.php />
</body>
This always loads the same picture :/

In reply to: BLOG:CMS vs. WordPressDidnt know about this blogware, and from what I can read on the Feature pages, it looks pretty good and seems to have a lot in common with WP. One thing I’d like to know, just being curious, is how it compares with WP on a MySQL and CPU matter. One thing it seems totally owned at by WP is the community though, which is IMO part of the important features of a blogware.

In reply to: Help me choose photo gallery plugin/script. . .I can at least suggest my point of view 🙂

In reply to: How to insert Javascript in a postall this seems pretty useless since WP has a built-in email obfuscation function.
However a much simpler way to still use javascript is to use a function like :
function mailto (who,where,what) {
if (who == undefined) {who = "ozh"};
if (where == undefined && who == "ozh") {where = "planetozh.com"};
if (what == undefined) {quoi = ""};
location.target="_top";
location.href="mailto:"+who+"@"+where+"?subject="+what;
}
Then replace all your standard mailto links with :
mail me
or

In reply to: Minimalismyou can also remove some closing tags(p, h1, h2, h3, em, strong, …), which will unvalidate, but who cares when it’s for a benefit of more than six hundred bites !!1

In reply to: If you post code in your entries…Just tried the highlight plugin (which is available and documented here) : this is almost perfect, it still lacks ability to prevent WP to modify text (converting quotes into prettier quotes, eating backslashed and so on)
