WordPress Bangla Date Plugin

Yesterday I developed a plug in for wordpress users. Using this plug in you can display all the dates for your posts and comments in Bengali. So download the plug in from the following link, place it in plugins folder and enable it from “plugins” menu in wordpress administration panel. You are done.

I have released under Ekushey. Thanks to Omi Azad for the work.

WordPress Blogrolls Importer - Opensource

Today I developed this tool to import wordpress blog rolls as XML document. You know when you export data from wordpress.com that doesn’t include the blog rolls data. So if you want to keep a backup of your blog rolls, you can use this tool to import your blog rolls data.. This one is developed using PHP and Curl

You can doewnload it and see the code in action here

Opensource WordPress Blogrolls Importer

The trick is lying here –
;

    

    $ch = curl_init();

    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, “./login.jar”);

    

    

    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);

    //curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE);  // this line makes it work under https

    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,“{$url}/wp-login.php”);

    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);

    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION,1);

    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, “log={$username}&pwd={$password}&&redirect_to=wp-admin/link-manager.php&wp_submit=”);

    

    $buffer= curl_exec ($ch); // execute the curl command

    

WordPress Plugin for Bengali WordPressians (?)

Ah ya, let me call you WordPressian if you are a wordpress fan. Last night I developed a small plugin for bengali wordpress users. If you install this plugin you will be able to write in Unijoy, Phonetic and Plain English mode. You will get three buttons as shown here

Then you can type Unicode on se,ecting either UniJoy or Phonetic

And you can write english anytime by clicking English button or pressing Control+C

Thats it. I will release this plugin under Ekushey.org by Tomorrow

Another Idea which I wonder if I could manage time for - wordpress desktop

I am planning for another wonderful wordpress blog theme which will simulate a desktop look-n-feel for all wordpress. For example there will be a start button, a my blog posts menu like my documents, search like run menu and so forths. I wonder if I could manage time for it….

Turn your wordpress Blog into a full fledged CMS

Hopefully you know that my second book published few weeks ago from packt publishing. I wrote abput several topics from beginning to master your wordpress blog. One of the chapter, I told how you can customize your wordpress blog into a full fledged CMS by modifying the code. Dont worry, you need not to be a pro for editing this code.

Packt is giving you the facility to freely download this chapter. Goto my book website at http://www.packtpub.com/wordpress/book and download the chapter.

I got a cool idea - Now developing this wordpress plugin

After getting the solution for sending message to MSN contact I got another cool idea. I can easily develop a small plugin for wordpress using which people will be able to subscribe to any blog with their MSN address. and When that blog will update, that plugin will automatically send new post URL to those subscribed MSN addresses.

Whoa!!

I have started developeing this cool plugin for wordpress.

My second book has been announced - WordPress Complete

after working for couple of months, the book has been announced this week by packt publishing. i am very happy with the cover designed by helen. you can see the cover and read about the book by clicking here
