Write Asides

  • I’m trying to figure out a way to make a new page under the Write column (figured this part out) which automatically chooses the aside category. Basically, I go to “Write Asides” and I am taken to a page with the same form as the Write Page one, except, the default category is now the Asides category.

    Any idea how to do this? I’m not much of a php programmer so can’t really think of a way to do it myself. Messing around with it didn’t really yield any results. Possibly do this via a plugin?

  • Why on earth would you want to do that, rather than just tick the right checkbox under categories for the category you’ve chosen to be your asides category?

    because, usually i’m posting in a hurry. Making it one less step would just make it a bit easier. Plus, I have a dozen or so categories (well 69 to count them all) since I used to use them as tags rather than categories (don’t ask)

    Sorry, but I still don’t see how it’s “one less step” and AFAIK making any sort of customizations to the wp admin would take a level of genius that I’m sure I don’t have, and by your own self-proclimation, think you might not have either…

    I’d just make a new category, and maybe make THAT one your default, so that you won’t have to worry about checking boxes when you write – if the 5 seconds is really that much to bear…

    argh, but the 5 seconds are too much to bear. Try finding the sideblog category from 97 different categories! Alas, It is possible via a plugin system (don’t say it isn’t, because it is) and any help in the regard would be appreciated.
