Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Plugin: Related Links by Category] Fix for duplicatesHey thanks, I knew about this but I wasn’t sure if it was considered a bug or not. I’ll fix this in an update soon.
I don’t know why this would be occurring. Since the plugin just lists pages, it doesn’t make any calls within WP that are even close to editing the background. I think the problem is with another plugin, maybe you have something influencing the CSS?
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: Related Links by Category PluginGlad to see that you like it. It’s such a simple idea, but I’m surprised nobody ever made a plugin like it before.
I think you should be able to use
widget_RLBC()and have it output the same way it would as a widget.I might be able to add an excerpt to the post, although the plugin was originally designed to be a list of posts. I’ll see what I can do for that…
Forum: Everything else WordPress
In reply to: Ideas Forum/Communication ChannelsWhat I really don’t like about the ideas forum is the fact that it’s the same highest rated ideas and then the newest ideas. If it’s more than a few days old, there is no way to access it, as far as I know, and it just gets lost in space. Nobody can comment on it, rate it higher, or have any say on its future. I think the Ideas forum should be a full-featured bbPress, where you can browse ideas by type, and be able to view ALL of them, old and new. Then there’s Kvetch, where some of the things that pop up are complaints from older versions of WordPress that were fixed/updated quite a while ago. I say throw that out completely.
What I think would get more people involved is a few pages on the site (not necessarily in the codex) that explain HOW to get involved. I have wanted to help in the WordPress project for a few months now, since I understand PHP for the most part, but I don’t really understand things like the ‘Hackers Mailing List.’ Trac was hard enough to figure out. If you just wrote out some more instructions, more people like me would probably be a bit more motivated to join the project.
The UserVoice idea sounds good if it could be implemented.
