Blog Plug-ins

The following is a list of plug-ins that might be useful:

• Table of Contents - http://www.evanscode.com/wordpress-table-of-contents-plugin/ - not needed, toc created 09/03/08
• Table of Contents - http://scott.yang.id.au/code/toc-generator/ - not needed, toc created 09/03/08
• Post template - http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/post-template/ - installed 09/02/08
  • In order to use this plugin you first have to create a post template. There should be an option to do this in Write > Post Template. After a template is created, in order to create a post using a template you must go to Manage > Templates and select the box corresponding to the template you would like to use for your new post. This is not setup as intuitively as it could be because I cannot find any way to select a template from the Write section. This means that our authors will not be able to use templates. I will investigate custom permissions settings.
