The No Feed WordPress Plugin and the One Search WPMU Plugin have been updated to work with WP 2.7 and WPMU 2.65, respectively. The No Feed plugin adds the ability to disable RSS feeds. The One Search WPMU Plugin allows users to search multiple blogs in a WPMU installation.

Death By Random Blogging

Jason Ungos — Sat, 25 Oct 2008 03:08:07 +0000

Hats off to the non-professional bloggers out there that keep their blogs fresh and alive! For me, it’s yet another day night to resuscitate this blog with some of the hidden gems in my dusty drafts trove. But I won’t venture there quite yet. For this post, the question to answer is, "What have I been up to?"

Let’s see…

Coding WordPress and WordPress, and using WordPress
Silverlight, C#, and .NET experimentation
Map mashing and AJAXifying
Prettying people up and just making them look good (Photoshopping and Marketing)
Wondering if I’ll ever be able to backup 20GB worth of data online, and
Entertaining some new business partnerships
Lots of fun traveling

Stay tuned for more!

New Subversion (SVN) Setup

Jason Ungos — Mon, 18 Feb 2008 05:29:23 +0000

There’s been a lot of interest in the One Search plugin I recently released. To allow people to play a little and see where things are at, I setup subversion and a way to browse the code. So far only one project is up there, but I’ll probably be adding more.

Subversion is a development tool to manage changes in code. Unless you’re a developer, or just generally curious, it’s not going to be all that interesting to you. If you do check things out, don’t forget to give some feedback.

One Search WPMU Plugin Available For Download

Jason Ungos — Fri, 08 Feb 2008 05:56:17 +0000

Version 0.1 of the One Search WPMU Plugin is now available for download. I’m making it available so you can use and abuse it. Try it out and let me know how it goes for you.

Remember, this is beta (uh, more like alpha) software and has been barely tested. It works with:

WPMU 1.3.3
MySQL 5.0
PHP 5.2.5

As you use, it please let me know what version you’ve been able to get it running on. I appreciate any feedback that can improve the plugin.

Multi-Blog Search Plugin

Jason Ungos — Wed, 06 Feb 2008 08:09:06 +0000

I’ll be releasing a search plugin for WordPress MU. It’s doing the job, but I would love a few others to test it. If you’re interested, leave me a comment or email me.

Why another search plugin?

Well, this one is written specifically for the WPMU. There are a few plugins that already do this, but they all require some kind of core file hacking, running some back-end cron job, or modifying the default templates. I wanted something that was completely plug-n-play.

If you had an ideal global WPMU search plugin, what would be on your wishlist?

Updated: No Feed Plugin

Jason Ungos — Fri, 01 Feb 2008 02:55:32 +0000

I updated the No Feed WordPress plugin this week. It now accurately issues a “404 Error Not Found” for disabled feeds. It will also correctly display your default 404 template.

Get the update.

Attachment Category Updater WordPress Plugin

Jason Ungos — Wed, 30 Jan 2008 18:39:07 +0000

When you add an attachment to a WordPress post, the attachment inherits the post’s categories. However, future changes to a post’s categories are not reflected in the attachment. The Attachment Category Updater WordPress plugin fixes that.

This can be beneficial for tag or category searches, and even for custom attachment archives.

If you use it, let me know!

No Feed WordPress Plugin

Jason Ungos — Wed, 30 Nov -0001 00:00:00 +0000

I came across a thread in WordPress support about someone needing to remove all feeds. There was no need for password protection or limited access. They just needed the feeds deleted. Download the plugin that will remove all feeds.

I’d agree that simply deleting the feed-* files would be sufficient and acceptable. However, whenever I hack (or remove) core files, I add extra work for myself when it comes time to upgrade. The added work comes in remembering to delete those files with every upgrade.

The solution? A plugin. WordPress has a great framework for plugins. And that’s why there are so many great ones. So here it is… The No Feed WordPress Plugin.

If you use it, let me know!
