I spent a little bit of time (when I wasn’t working) over the last week and turned that little script I mentioned in the last post into a full blown wordpress plugin with a working settings page and everything! This is my first plugin, but I did test it quite a bit. Obviously, if you run into any issues in using it, do not hesitate to contact me by leaving a comment on this post. Read the rest »
