ezLogin version 0.2

Saturday, October 28th, 2006

This version of the [tag]plugin[/tag] adds a last argument for display of the text you desire when registration to your site is disabled in the admin. E.g. you could say ‘no more reg.’ or ‘registration disabled’…etc.

When users are logged in additional display of when (days ago) they were registered is also added. Head over there for a copy.

ezlogin(10,' username',' password',' enter','howdy ','checkout','no more reg.'); } ?>

ezCount Plugin

Friday, October 27th, 2006

This [tag]plugin[/tag] is an all in one plugin putting together various smaller plugins by Anders Holte Nielsen, his plugin project page is here. Again I have used these for quite a while and found it tedious of copying and pasting 6 plugins from folder to folder and activating them one by one. Now all six (he has total of 7 in fact, I dropped the one for number of characters in posts) smaller plugins become one. I have only one to activate and using it at sidebar or footer is a lot easier.

In the past I have to do this in the sidebar

  • users registered
  • posts here
  • words in all posts
  • categories
  • users have made comments
  • comments so far

With ezCount plugin I can do this for a typical sidebar display

ezCount('','wordcount',' words here');
ezCount('
','usercount',' users registered');
ezCount('
','usercommentcount',' users commented');
ezCount('
','msgcount',' posts');
ezCount('
','commentcount',' comments posted');
ezCount('
','categorycount',' categories'); } ?>

To use it at footer, I can

ezCount('This blog has ','wordcount',' words ');
ezCount('in ','msgcount',' posts ');
ezCount('and ','categorycount',' categories, ');
ezCount('there are ','usercount',' users registered ');
ezCount('','usercommentcount',' of them have commented ');
ezCount('with total ','commentcount',' comments'); } ?>

Just see them at my sidebar and footer as illustration.
