Responsive Design and Mobile Plugins for WordPress
So your site doesn’t look quite like you wanted on your iPhone. This article explains some of the options to transform your WordPress site into a mobile-friendly site.
LastPass
LastPass is an online password manager and form filler that streamlines and secures your online accounts. Multiple computers and multiple browsers? No problem.
Kindle Convert
I’m a writer and I promote writers and their work. I’m old school (pen and paper) so the thought of a Kindle was horrifying. Here’s why I’m a convert.
Hana Code Insert
Do your posts’ fancy HTML code (or embeds or movies or JavaScript) get mangled when you–or worse–someone else, opens your WordPress post in the Visual editor?
Category Icons
Finally, with the help of the Category Icons plugin, I can designate certain posts in a list to have an icon.
BackupBuddy
I’ve been looking for years for a good backup solution for WordPress. I finally found it: BackupBuddy.
An Editorial Calendar Plugin I Love
The WordPress Editorial Calendar plugin shows your posts in a visual calendar-view format that lets you see what’s scheduled to go live and when.
Styles with Shortcodes for WordPress
Shortcodes independent of the WordPress theme? With a little button to put the code into your post area? Whoa.
WordPress.com or WordPress.org? What’s the difference?
WordPress.com or WordPress.org? Simply put, with wordpress.com, you’re renting, with wordpress.org you own.
Widget Logic
So you want that widget on the home page, but not on any other pages? Done. The Widget Logic plugin lets you choose where you want what when.
Genesis Featured Posts Widget
I had used the Genesis Featured Page in a widget, but then I realized it really needed to be a Featured Post. “Aha, what do we have here in the widget area? Genesis Featured Posts!” Lucky me.
Gravity Forms
I’ve been through Contact Form 7, I’ve been a longtime fan of cforms, but there was one feature none of those had that I’ve been holding out for: conditional form fields. Enter Gravity Forms.
Genesis Simple Edits
This plugin lets you edit the three areas in any Genesis theme: the post-info (byline), the post-meta, and the footer area. Normally, you’d have to get into the PHP files, find the right spot to edit what you’re looking to do, save, upload, check, oops, edit, save, upload, check. Now it’s all in the WordPress admin: click, save, done.
12,000 emails per month to a list of 2,000 subscribers — completely free
MailChimp, my preferred newsletter/mailing list/mass emailing software, just upped the ante: you can now use their service, completely free of charge, for your mailing list of 2,000 subscribers and send 12,000 emails per month.
