Yongfook’s Instant Google World Map Plugin
Yongfook.com
Has released a handy WP plugin that allows for the instant creation of a Google World Map to, in the author’s own words:
- If you blog on the road, keep track of where you blogged from.
- If you review a restaurant / art exhibition / concert etc, show us where you are talking about.
- If you are blogging about something that can be related to a specific place (e.g. a past holiday, something that caught your eye in the news) you can put it on the map.

Vito Tardia
Improves on an existing plugin which allows for easier inclusion of static html pages in your WP blog.
Romantic Sunset Theme
Maike W Design
The site’s in German, but a nice WP theme is a nice WP theme. The name says it all Romantic Sunset-sunset header image, burnt oranges for a color scheme. Two column, right hand side bar, with some subtle background graphics.
PlazesMap plugin version 0.2
tijs.org
A new and updated plugin to map, using Google Maps, your Plazes-a new online concept of tracking Plazes, network places, so to speak.
Trackping Separator Plugin
Perspectives from cubicle
Can’t quite figure out if this is a recent update or not, but looks like a useful plugin nonetheless. Allows to seperate out easily via plugin your track/ping backs from your comments. Does require quite a bit of template hacking, but probably for those who would most benefit from the plugin in it’s not that big of a deal.
Drunkey Love
Drunkey Love
A new and updated WordPress theme. Simple, clean two column, right hand sidebar with some CSS fun for the header. Looks easily modifiable for that “unique” look without all the work.
External links, and Google analytics
Semiological
Has been quite busy, releasing two more plugins- external links, which highlights any external links with an icon and internal class, as well as a Google Analytics plugin. Advertised as a superior choice to the ones currently offered, and based on his track record, I believe him, a reliable way of adding the new stats package easily to your WP blog. While your there, check for updates to other Semiological plugins.
Moving Site within Domain
So I moved the site from a subfolder to the root. With the help of the codex, I was easily able to move the site to root, with no problems. Go into your admin area, change the options for the site address, move your files, load the site, done! But alas, I couldn’t load my Pages. I went in and changed the permalinks, twice, but alas, I couldn’t load my Pages. So, I copied the page under edit, deleted the page, and created a new page with new title. Still wouldn’t load. Figured it must be .htaccess issues, that it was trying to load a page from the subfolder still, so I deleted the file, uploaded a new, blank text file, renamed it to .htaccess, reset the permalinks, Pages load. So if the problem ever happens to you, now you know how to fix it.
