CMS Tree Page View recommended at WordCamp Australia
Troy Dean of Video User Manuals did a presentation at WordCamp Australia called ”Better WordPress For Clients”. About 16 minutes in the talk he recommends my WordPress plugin CMS Tree Page View for managing pages in sites with more than 10 pages. Thanks for telling Australia, Troy! 
Add notes to Gmail and sync with SimpleNote with this Raplet for Rapportive
Since yesterday I can add notes to all my emails in Gmail. And each note is also stored in SimpleNote, so I have access to each note in Gmail, SimpleNote and in desktop apps like Notational Velocity.
This functionally is something I’ve missed for a long time:
Every day I get emails with for example todos. ”Please fix these 5 things on this website”. Ok, cool. But how do I keep track of my progress in completing the tasks in this email? I used to create a todo-note in SimleNote. Fine. It works. But I loose the connection to the message in Gmail. So I used to paste the URL to the gmail message into the note. Fine. Works too. But what if I am in Gmail and looking at the email? Then I must search SimpleNote to see if I have any notes there for this specific message. Ok, it’s starting to get cumbersome. So I thought that ”Hey, can’t I use the same note in both SimpleNote and Gmail?”. And thanks to Rapportive and it’s Raplet-system it turns out that I actually could.
It’s great btw. Feels like magic. Works like magic.
Some screenshots of the Raplet in action:
The note as it looks in Gmail
…and the same note in the SimpleNote web app
..and the same note in Notational Velocity
WordPress 3.1: more CMS than ever
This week has been all about the new WordPress release: 3.1. It is a great release and some of the new features that I really like are the new add link popup that easy let’s you choose among your existing pages and the writing interface that now features a lot less panels than before (something I’ve been bothered by for a long time).
Also, as Matt says: ”With the 3.1 release, WordPress is more of a CMS than ever before”.
These words from Matt feels very good for me since most of my plugins for WordPress focus on extending it’s CMS functionality.
So: WordPress 3.1 + CMS Tree Page View + Simple Fields + Simple History = a heck of a CMS!
Jag har blivit en programköpare
Lika bra jag kommer ut ur garderoben: jag har blivit en person som köper datorprogram. Länge har jag hängt på forum och på the pirate bay för att få tag på fulla versioner av program, men efter att jag själv börjat skriva plugins till WordPress så har jag insett att man måste belöna de personer som sliter för att göra något bra.
Själv blir jag överlycklig så fort någon bloggar, twittrar eller donerar pengar till mina projekt och plugins. Så jag kan bara inte vara sämre själv och därför är min policy framöver att allt jag använder regelbundet ska jag betala för eller donera till.
Följande program och tjänster är några av de jag hittills köpt:
- AirFoil
- Spotify
- TotalFinder
- Dropbox
- Coda
- Simplenote
- Little Snitch
- Memories
- Changes
- MoveAddict (fast ersattes snabbt av TotalFinder som fick stöd för att flytta filer)
- flattr.com
- Voodoopad (dock ersatts av Simplenote numera)
Hello 50 000 downloads of CMS Tree Page View
My WordPress-plugin CMS Tree Page View just reached over 50,000 downloads. It feels like a magical number.
I’ve also got a total of 44 ratings and it looks like all of them are five stars. More magic!
The next magical number would be 100,000, and then it’s time for big celebration. This time? Small celebration. Maybe a nice latte and some chocolate? Aaaah rewards…
