Install BumpIn Socialbar or chat widget for your wordpress and give an interaction mechanism to people visiting your website and draw more traffic to your website using bumpin Hotspots(See http://www.bumpin.com). Following are some features of BumpIn plugin.

Multi IM Chat: Now you can chat with your buddies on Gtalk, MSN, Yahoo, AOL from a single platform, and invite them to visit your blog.

Twitter: This feature lets the visitors show your twitter feeds at your website.

Facebook Fanpage: Now you are able to integrate your fan page (of facebook) to your blog. Your visitors have the flexibility to see your fanpage right on your blog.

Facebook Recommend: Your visitors can recommend your blog to their friends on facebook.

RSS: This feature lets your visitors read your blog's rss.

Share: Now your visitors can share the link of your blog with their friends on Facebook, Twitter, Buzz , MySpace, Digg and Delicious.

Instantaneous availability: The new widget is available for you to embed on your website right away after selecting a theme and filling a small form.

A conventional ShoutBox: A feature that really helps you tapping into conversations on the website you just entered into. Alternatively the main window act as a ShoutBox where your visitors can leave messages.

Embedding Options: BumpIn chat widget can be embedded in a variety of ways on your blog - Facebook-Style chat bar, Side Panel chat, Embedded chat.

Added Features: User login/signup option, Page/Website level shoutbox, Advanced web based Admin Control Panel, Chat Moderation with Name Protection and IP banning

Cross Browser Compatibility: BumpIn chat rooms and widgets are compatible with all major browsers.

Smooth Transition within a website: The new widget remembers you and your conversations while you surf through different pages on a website. So you don't have to worry about staying on a page while chatting. Besides you dont miss a message as you are properly notified about them on browser/tabs

Better interaction options (public & private) for your visitors: With the seamlessly integrated ShoutBox you can participate in public discussions as well as share your interest in Private one-to-one chat (which remembers your conversation even if you refresh of change to some other page in the same website).

Page level user availability: This one is my favorite. The chat widget shows page level users as well as website level users. Its extremely interesting as most of the websites (web 2.0 or older, content based etc.) have clear segmentation between the hosted content. This helps your users to reach out exact people for fruitful interaction as they know who is interested in the same content they are.

Bumpin Hotspots: The feature currently appears in BumpIn Sidebar (which can be reached by going at BumpIn website). This is important if you plan to have this widget on your website. We have plans to enhance this feature even more so that it can be more helpful in promoting related website as per user trends.

Logged In Users: From version 3.2 onward, logged in users are detected and their nick name is set in the chat widget automatically.

We would recon that the bloggers (specially) and other sites like forums/content driven sites (generally) to try it out, this can add significant social element.

You can feature, sort, and set the status (Hidden, Pending, Public) of testimonials. We even allow you to have a form so your users can submit testimonials right on your website. Best of all, they are marked pending and require your approval before they go public!

We allow you to display a random number of testimonials on your websites sidebar, using either our widget, or this tag (<?php collision_testimonials(); ?>). You can also have a testimonials page, where you display all your testimonials. We allow you to feature testimonials and set the order in which they are displayed! You truly have full control with our plugin!

Our plugin is highly configurable via our settings page. You choose how many testimonials are displayed, the prefix/suffix for regular testimonials, featured testimonials, and you can even have a different prefix/suffix for your testimonials page.

A few features: - Manage your testimonials. (Add, Edit, and Delete! Yep, full CRUD!) - Highly configurable via our graphical interface. - Set number of testimonials to display. - Configure the testimonial prefix and suffix. - Collect the following information for each testimonial: Name, Location, Testimonial, and Website. - Set status of testimonial to "Public", "Hidden", and even "Pending Approval". This allows you to hide a testimonial rather then deleting the testimonial from the database entirely. - Display all public testimonials on a testimonials page, using our testimonials page tag. (<!-- collision_testimonials_page -->) - Allow visitors to submit testimonials through a web form. Just add this tag to the page where you'd like the submission form to appear! (<!-- collision_testimonials_form -->) - Feature testimonials. - Choose who can manage testimonials. - And so much more....

1.3: Works with altered table name. WordPress 2.9.2 compatible.

Mass Custom Fields Manager (MCFM) is a plugin I wrote in order to help people who use WordPress to manage their post's custom fields with ease. If you don't want to spend your time editing each and every single post's custom fields to the same value or you want to delete/update specific posts you don't have another tool that let's you do that.

You can choose posts by category,ID,custom field value,tags (since v1.0) and more and with a click of a button manage their custom fields. You can also choose tags that if a post is saved having that tag, it will automatically get a specific custom field with a specific value (Added in v1.0).

WordPress Page Tree  (2010-03-15)

Creates a expand/collapse tree for showing all your pages on your site or in your administration pages panel. [read full description]

Do you have a WordPress site with lots of pages in a hierarchical structure? Are you trying to use WordPress like a "real" CMS? Then this plugin is for you!

Page Tree gives you a much-needed overview of your pages in the admininstration panel using a common expand/collapse menu, which lets you navigate your page structure like a folder tree in Windows Explorer.

Now you can quickly and easily find the page you want to edit using the expandable tree view, and also get an admin view site map of your complete site.

The page tree is displayed in the WordPress administration panel, under your regular "Pages" menu. See the screen shot for a better understanding of how it works.

If you want, you can use the sidebar widget to show the page tree on your site. Or you can use the pagetree shortcode to display the tree anywhere you want in your site. Finally, you can also use the pagetree_public() function to display the tree in using your templates.

SEO No Duplicate  (2010-06-10)

This plugin helps you manage your search engine duplicate content, by setting your post page’s canonical to the permalink. [read full description]

This simple plugin helps you easily tell the search engine bots the preferred version of a page by specifying the canonical properly within your head tag.

Why would you do such a thing? Simply because many black-hat SEO folks abuse duplicate content to gain search ranking and search engine try really hard to detect and penalize them. The last thing you want to do is present yourself as an SEO spammer to search engines.

WordPress 2.9+ includes rel="canonical" header settings by default but the feature only works properly on singular posts (not category or archive pages). So for example:

The second page of your homepage should actually have its canonical URL set to: "http://example.com" instead of "http://example.com/page/2"

Using this plugin solves the above issue in WordPress 2.9+.

WP-Optimize  (2010-01-08)

This plugin allows you to clean up your wordpress database and optimize it without phpMyAdmin. Also renames any username. [read full description]

WP-Optimize is a wordpress 2.7++ database cleanup and optimization tool. It doesn't require PhpMyAdmin to optimize your database tables. It allows you to remove post revisions, comments in the spam queue, un-approved comments within few clicks.

Additionally you can rename any username to another username too.

Now Multi-Lingual.

Translators are welcome to send their Translated Files to be included. Contact me at http://wwww.ruhanirabin.com/contact/

Features:

  • Remove the wordpress post revisions
  • Remove all the comments in the spam queue
  • Remove all the un-approved comments
  • Rename one username to another username, it's designed to rename default "Admin" user to something else
  • Apply mysql optimize commands on your database tables without phpMyAdmin.
  • Display Database table statistics. Shows how much space can be optimzied and how much space has been cleared.

How this could help you?

  • Everytime you save a new post or pages, wordpress creates a revision of that post or page. If you edit a post 6 times you might have 5 copy of that post as revisions. Imagine if your post or pages are long and big. It is a huge number of bytes thats on your MySQL overhead. Now WP-Optimize allows you to optimize and shrink your posts table by removing not necessary post revisions from the database. As example, if you have a post which is approximately 100KB data and you have 5 revisions of that post, the total space wasted is about 500KB. And if you have 100 posts similar to it, you have 50MB database space wasted.
  • Similar to the scenario described above, there might be thousands of spams and un-approved comments in your comments table, WP-Optimize can clean and remove those in a single click
  • WP-Optimize reports which database tables have overhead and wasted spaces also it allows you to shrink and get rid of those wasted spaces
  • Wordpress doesn't allow you to rename existing username which could be a security issue because your default wordpress admin username is "admin", if you read my Wordpress Security guide article, you will know the risks involved. WP-Optimize can rename any existing username to other name

WPtouch automatically transforms your WordPress blog into an iPhone application-style theme, complete with ajax loading articles and effects, when viewed from an iPhone, iPod touch, Android, Opera Mini, Palm Pre and BlackBerry Storm mobile devices.

The admin panel allows you to customize many aspects of its appearance, and deliver a fast, user-friendly and stylish version of your site to iPhone, iPod touch, Android, Palm Pre and BlackBerry Storm visitors, without modifying a single bit of code (or affecting) your regular desktop theme.

The theme also includes the ability for your visitors to easily switch between the WPtouch view and your site's regular theme.

Now Available: =WPtouch 2.0 Pro!= Totally re-written top to bottom, with a slew of new features, including support for themes!

Speak Your Mind

WPPG uses Nofollow Free, which means your author link CAN be dofollow :

  • Please keep all comments on-topic and relevant to the original post.
  • Your author link default has the nofollow attribute, after you have submitted 5 comments it will be changed to dofollow permanently.
  • Use your normal name as anchor, you probably weren't born with the name 'Cheap Hotels' ...
  • The moderators of WPPG reserve the right to remove comments we feel do not adhere to these guidelines or are not in the best interest of WPPG.
