Nice Navigation creates good looking expand/collapse-menus for WordPress blogs/sites
Yes, a new plugin/widget for WordPress now again. This one is a quick and dirty version, but it seems to work pretty good. Please give it a try and let me know how – and if! – it works for you.
It looks something like this…

Simple History is a new history plugin for WordPress
Yes (but no ”Oops!”), I did it again: I created a new plugin for WordPress. I’m really starting to get the hang of this now 
.
This time it’s a history/change log/audit/recent changes-plugin called ”Simple History”. Just take a look at this screenshot and you will get the hang of it:
It fits perfectly on your dashboard – or on a separate page, if you prefer that – and it shows you the most recent changes that has been made within WordPress. What articles have been created, modified or deleted? What attachments have been uploaded, modified or deleted? And so on. It’s a pretty good plugin to have on websites where several people are involved: ”Has someone done anything today? Ah, Sarah uploaded the new press release and created an article for it. Good. Now I know.”
And it’s a beta version!
I don’t want to start to sound like Google here, but the plugin is in beta. Until it’s available on wordpress.org (I’m waiting for ”approvement”) you can find the plugin here: http://eskapism.se/code-playground/simple-history/
Good start for my CMS-enhancing plugins for WordPress
Recently I released my first WordPress plugin ”CMS Tree Page View” to help manage WordPress installations with many pages, mostly seen on ”CMS-like” installations/websites.
So far CMS Tree Page View have had nearly 6.000 downloads, and my introductory screencast have had almost 2.500 views on YouTube. I have also recieved an overwhelming amount of positive feedback from users. Just look at these wonderful quotes that I have revieved in blog comments or through Twitter:
”Wonderful plugin that makes handling pages in WP much much easier.”
”Excellent!”
”Oh my Goodness, I needed this plug in so bad. Thank you, thank you, thank you”
”I love this plugin”
”What a great plugin! Works like charm …”
”Awesome plugin.”
”Awesome! Thank you, CMS Tree Page View is a huge help in organizing ”
”Extremely useful for large sites.”
Personaly I must say that I no longer can use WordPress without CMS Tree Page View. I simply depend on it! It’s just that good, that simple, and that effective. A cornerstone in any WordPress CMS installation for me in the future.
Shortly thereafter – but after a lot of work – I released my second plugin ”Simple Fields” to further extend the CMS capabilities of WordPress. Simple Fields gives WordPress the ability to add almost any kind of content to a single post. Just as with CMS Tree Page View, I can no longer use WordPress without this plugin. Yes, it’s just that good too!
So far Simple Fields have had nearly 600 downloads and I have received pretty much positive feedback. Not as much as with CMS Tree Page View, but I think that’s OK: Simple Fields is a far more complex plugin, targeted at advanced users, and it requires WordPress 3. So when WordPress 3 is released I expect the number of users and downloads to raise.
Anyway, with this blog post I just want to say ”thank you” to all you users out there who download my plugins and give me me positive feedback. You make me wanna keep on doing this!
Då var det dax för ny cykel igen då
Tro det eller ej, men för några veckor sedan blev min cykel stulen. Igen! Detta var nummer tre som blivit stulen i Stockholm. Den här gången blev jag knappt upprörd. Bara en svag känsla av besvikelse infann sig.
Dom senaste två cyklarna har varit av modellen Skeppshult V (och Skeppshults dåliga webbplats är fortfarande så pass skapad att jag inte kan länka direkt till cykeln – skäms på er!) och tyvärr måste jag säga att jag inte varit så nöjd med dom. Dom har krånglat, låtit illa, varit osköna att cykla på, haft dålig utväxling och så har dom dessutom ingen framlampa som standard. Därför var jag lite sugen denna gång att köpa en annan Skeppshult, en Arc Bas t.ex. Men i försäkringspappret jag fick idag står det att jag kan hämta ”Varan Skeppshult V” och med tanke på att det är ett stort och styggt försäkringsbolag så utgår jag från att förhandlingschansen är minimal. Men jag ska försöka ändå. Håll tummarna!
Ps. Hade jag haft råd hade jag givetvis köpt en Pilen igen. Ds.
Update: Men jo! Det gick igenom: Länsförsäkringar säger OK till att jag plockar ut en annan modell. Happy happy, joy joy. Nu måste jag bara spara ihop pengar till självrisken på 1.500:-….
Rightzoom for OS X lets you maximize your windows – Windows style!
A friend of mine who recently switched from Windows to Mac was very annoyed: clicking on that green button in a window in OS X didn’t maximize the window. It just resized. Very annoying, he thought, and started googling. And he found something good: Rightzoom.
With Rightzoom enabled, whenever you click the green button on your windows, they maximize. Very nice indeed. Best of all is the option to only enable the maximize function if you hold down the option key while you click. This is the way I prefer.
For me, this is definitely a keeper.
