Comment & Post Plugins

  • I’ve changed my previous hacks into plugins for use with 1.2.
    https://mtdewvirus.com/wp-hacks/

    • Comment Plugger
      Gives a list of that last people to comment on a post, with a link to their site if they provided one.
    • Comment Word Count
      Outputs the total number of words in all comments.
    • Most Commented
      Retrieves a list of the posts with the most comments.
    • Post Count
      Outputs the total number of posts.

  • I use a few of them, so that’s me busy for a while !
    Thank you! ??

    All done ??
    (Though a note for others maybe .. remove the hack before activating the plugin. If you don’t – like me – you get a conflict and have to change the my-hacks using ftp. No biggie though.)

    With the hack, I had commenters names displayed horizontally after the Comments link.
    Using the plugin, they are listed below it.
    I have managed to undo the listing part, but I can’t see where the carriage return is being generated that stop the names being listed on the same line as the link.

    I went to your site to check it out, but it looks as if you have the plugin turned off.

    Okay, figured it ??

    Thanks for these, a nice way to integrate stats and use these on other pages then index.php.

    podz,
    What was the problem? Might help someone else along the way.

    I can get the commenters on one line, and I have added a nbsp to be displayed after a hyperlinked name, but aftertrying to get the same (so commenters names are spaced) with a non-linked one, all I am getting are errors.
    Here are the last lines of the plugin:
    if (!empty($commenter->comment_author_url))
    $output .= 'comment_author_url . '" title="' . $commenter->comment_author . '">' . $commenter->comment_author . ' ';
    else $output .= $commenter->comment_author ;
    }
    echo $before . '' . $output . '';
    }

    podz,
    I think what you need is some CSS with right padding. Here is the CSS I’m using:
    .feedback {
    text-align:right;
    font-size:xx-small;
    padding-bottom:10px;
    }
    .feedback ul {
    margin-left:0;
    padding-left:0;
    display:inline;
    list-style:none;
    }
    .feedback ul li {
    display:inline;
    padding:0 2px 0 2px;
    border-left:2px solid #c96;
    }
    Crow,
    I’m almost positive it can…I’ll take a look at it.

    MDV – many thanks ?? Works great !

    Crow,
    The new version has that option now. ??

    Wow, that was fast.
    I really appreciate that. Thanks!

    Your welcome…it was a piece of cake.

    Um, question.
    It works like a champ, but I’m not finding where to change the excerpt text color in the style sheet. The text is black on an almost-black background.
    What tag name is the excerpt text looking to for its color?

    Thread Starter Nick Momrik

    (@mtdewvirus)

    There isn’t any specific CSS being used, it just uses whatever is setup currently in your CSS…so it depends on where you are using it and what the color is set to for that “place”. I went to your site to take a look but didn’t see it running with the excerpts anywhere. Are you going to use it on the sidebar under Recent Site Entries?
