Table Of Contents Discussion Resumed
Yesterday I’ve posted about the pros and cons of basing WordPress plugin functionality on JavaScript. Now Ted has written a follow up article responding to mine, from which I’ve got the slight impression he might have mistaken my post for a critique of his plugin, which it definitely wasn’t meant to be. Besides, there are also some clear misinterpretations of my arguments in his post. Here I’m taking the time to hopefully correct both aspects. Read more >>
WordPress PlugIn Tech Foundations – PHP vs JavaScript
This post elaborates on the sense and nonsense of technology choices for a WordPress plugin implementation. It compares two diametrically different technological foundations, PHP vs JavaScript, for WordPress plugins.1 Read more >>
- Of course, every WordPress plugin will ultimately contain at least some administrative portions of PHP code in order to hook into WordPress. I’m referring to the main computing though, and whether it takes place in PHP or JavaScript code. [↩]
TOC Malfunction Rumors Disproved
There have been rumors that SEO Table Of Contents wouldn’t work properly on long pages with more than 12,500 characters. I just made a functional page with 29,837 (!) characters and a TOC, wich proves the rumors wrong.
Check it out, see for yourself: the TOC Test With Looong Text.
TOC Boxes Is SEO Table Of Contents
Yes, here is another release of the plugin formerly known as TOC Boxes, bringing some cool changes along.
Go get it at wordpress.org. It’s worth upgrading. 🙂
Placing a TOC In The Sidebar Revisited – First Aid For Naughty Themes
Some time ago, I wrote a tip about placing a TOC in the side bar. As it now turns out, this tip does not work on all themes. Here’s why, and what you can do about it.
TOC Boxes 1.5.2 Release (Artem’s Rib)
Hi everybody! I haven’t posted anything for a while now (been busy traveling and working), but I’m back with a new version of TOC boxes.
Table Of Contents In The Sidebar
Hackadelic TOC Boxes work in the sidebar as well. Out of the box. You can see a live demo on my blog by going to a post’s single view: The TOC box appears at the top of the left sidebar.1 This post here is a good example.
How I did it? Read more >>
- At least it’s at the top at time of this writing. I may move it in the future to another place, or remove it all together. [↩]
TOC Boxes 1.5.1 Release
I am releasing a new version of TOC Boxes. It fixes two subtle but annoying bugs.
TOC Boxes 1.5 With Auto-Insertion
Finally I got around to finish this new major release of my TOC Boxes plugin, with a bunch of long wanted new features.
Actually, there are so many new features and improvements, that I decided it deserved to fast-forward to version number 1.5. Hence the “unofficial” name of the release: Warp 3.
Overall, the plugin now provides a bunch of settings, partly related to existing, partly to new features.
Download it as usually at wordpress.org, and find out in the rest of this post about the exciting new features and improvements. Read more >>
TOC Boxes 1.2.1 Resolves Conflict With Nofollow Reciprocity
The other day I installed the Nofollow Reciprocity plugin… and Bang! – another plugin conflict saw the light of day: On multipage posts, exactly at the second page the TOC boxes got entirely messed up.
Since I do not really use the multipage feature, I only noticed today, while working on, and testing,1 new TOC Boxes features. It took me a while to figure out that there is no bug in the TOC Boxes code, but a conflict stemming from somewhere else. Once I realized this though, it wasn’t hard to guess where the conflict comes from. After deactivating “Nofollow Reciprocity”, everything went back to normal.
- Aye, I test all the way long while I develop! 😉 [↩]
