WebspaceWorks Resources

Wordpress
During the course of transitioning the Webspace Works website to run off Wordpress, a number of plugins were developed to provided some necessary additional functionality.
Pages describing each of the plugins, as well as access to downloadable files, may be accessed through the links in the righthand sidebar, or via the summaries below.
Both the fold_page_list and fold_category_list plugins were originally developed under WP1.5, but have since been used successfully in the newer WP2.0+ series.
All plugins are provided under the terms of the GNU General Public License.

Content Extract
This is a simple wordpress plugin that provides some greater control over the automatic generation of extracted summaries of posted articles. Full details are provided on the support page.
Fold category list
Wordpress plugin for folding, collapsing, expanding (however you wish to refer to it) complete category navigation lists to just the top level categories, and then expanding only the sub-hierarchy for the current page. Includes a means of including a long and a short category description, with a view to using the short description as “tooltip” text on category links.
