After finding a couple of strange bugs, and ensuring the system is ready for Wordpress 2.8, USecureX 0.2 is finally released.  It contains just minor bug fixes, and also removed the static reference to wp-content for those of you that have changed your WP directory structure.  As always, let me know if you run into anything and need some help.

Most if not all of my plugins will work in 2.8 without any modifications, but I am running double checks as fast as I can just to be safe.

          

It has been a little while, but I have released BookX 0.3.   It is not a huge change, mostly a couple of bug fixes, but also verified complete compatibility with the upcoming version 2.8.  So Enjoy!

          

MultiX is a lightweight script to allow for the seamless administration of multiple Wordpress websites that can reside on different servers and databases.  This plugin is a way for those of us that need to administer multiple Wordpress websites but don’t have the luxury of having all those sites on the same server or database.  I have a lot of Wordpress sites I admin for people and am getting more every day.  It is a complete annoyance to have to re-login to each and every one of them, so this plugin makes it to where a trust relationship is set up, and viola, now you can move back and forth at will.

Features

◊ Easy to setup and install
◊ Secure random trusted key method of authentication

          

BookX 0.1 is finally released.  BookX creates an easy way to give your site visitors a peek at your recommended books.  Using only ISBN numbers, it gets the information from Barnes and Noble (http://www.bn.com) and stores the information locally to both speed up the response time, but also to not bog down their servers with repetetive requests.  BookX creates a widget for your sidebar, a list view, and detail view, all customizable from the easy to use admin interface.

Features

◊ Uses only ISBN to fill in all the important information about your books
◊ Creates a Detail Page View, List View, and a Widget all from the same plugin
◊ Each view is totally customizable from an easy to use admin interface
◊ Lots of controls over the look and feel of the generated code through the admin interface
◊ Stores most (just not the image) of the data on your server for fast results and better control

          

ThemeX 0.5 is now ready for download and installation.  Here is the change log:

• Fixed bug #27

Just a bug fix, squashing the last known one.  It was a tough one to track down but thanks for bearing with me.

          

ThemeX 0.1 has been released. Its release coincides with the new look(s) and feel of this website.  There are actually two themes that alternate from a day theme and a night theme based on the time of day.  It is all automatic thanks to the ThemeX plugin.

ThemeX is very easy to use, easy to install, and is hosted/updated via WordPress so it will let you upgrade automatically through the admin interface.  If you have any questions or concerns, just let me know.

          

WineX 1.0 is offically out.  It is only a minor change due to CSS changes in the administration panel of WordPress 2.7.  However, if you have already upgraded to 2.7 and want the WineX panel to look right, head on over to the WineX page and download 1.0.

          

Due to my recent injury and subsequent free time, I am VERY bored. I work a lot, just because of nothing else to do at 3a, but still, that gets old, especially since I don’t want to be a programmer/techie, I happen to love the team development aspects of management.

Well, as my team can attest, I have been pretty grouchy, mostly due to the snails pace at which my treatment is moving, but also the boredom. My father, did suggest to try and play a game he and I loved from back in the day of when computers had turbo buttons and DOS was the bomb. He was right (man that hurt to admit), and it was (is) a great game and a lot of fun. So, off I ran to download Red Storm Rising. Since it is an old DOS game, I also had to get a DOS Emulator called DOS Box. You can download both from this post, as I don’t think it is fair for you to have to jump through a bunch of stupid hoops on some of those download sites just to get it, so feel free to download them here instead. If you are also so inclined, it is a great book too.
