TOC Boxes 1.5.1 Release
I am releasing a new version of TOC Boxes. It fixes two subtle but annoying bugs.
Insights About Insights – And How I Fixed What Its Author Couldn’t
Somewhere between its version 0.4 and my WordPress update to 2.7, the Insights plugin stopped working for me. At least, it stopped working on my hosted blog. But it still worked on my local test server.
And when I say “It stopped working”, I really mean it. No matter what search mode I selected, be it “Images”, or “Videos”, or anything, it always showed me search results from my blog only. [toc class=toc-right]
Weird stuff indeed…

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 >>
Recent Guest Comments Widget – Who Needs It?
I implemented a slight variation of the WordPress built-in recent comments widget that only shows comments from people other than me, so that it’s in conjunction with my “I wrote” / “You wrote” sidebar titles. It’s already in place here on my blog.
The current implementation is very specific to my site, and would need further work to make it generally usable – work that I’d be ready to invest if there’s enough public interest.
Drop me a note if you think this widget would be useful to you, and you would like to see it download-ready on wordpress.org.
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! 😉 [↩]
Sliding Notes 1.4.1 Released
A minor update of Sliding Notes is out.
The release provides a workaround for a weird cross-browser issue on some themes, like the one reported by Magnus.
Download it as usually at wordpress.org.
TOC Boxes 1.2 With Multipage Support Released
I’m proud to announce that, thanks to Sascha’s hint, TOC-Boxes now support multi-page posts.
Download it as usual at wordpress.org.
TOC Boxes 1.1.1 Released
A minor update of my TOC Boxes plugin is out. Besides fixing some small glitch, it adds the CSS class toc-anchor to the generated named anchors.
These anchors are inserted into the post to serve as link targets for links in the TOC box, and are (usually) invisible. The change mainly affects themes with unusual CSS styling for anchors in general, such as mentioned in my discussion with Daniel Nautré.
How To Auto-Collapse TOC Boxes
I’m writing this article in response to a question I’ve got recently, the answer to which I believe will be of general interest.
And the question is:
How to make automatically collapsed TOC boxes.
