WordPress 3.4 & iOS5
Well, I can’t see a great deal that’s new in WordPress 3.4 for the iPad. The Add Media tab does now have an From Computer pane but, for time being, it just includes a link to the mobile apps page.
WordPress App
I’ve been trying out the WordPress iOS app and I can’t say that I’m impressed. The post editor is so stripped back that it’s almost useless. If you want to post status updates via your iPhone, I can see how it might be useful but that’s about it.
Ravelry WordPress Widget
I stumbled across the Ravelry API page & the Progress Bar code last week and immediately thought “That would make a great widget”
. Someone did create a WordPress Progress Bar plugin about 4 years ago but it has never been updated. Also it still required site admins to add some JavaScript to their sidebar or pages manually.
So I decided to create a plugin widget that you just needed to drag & drop into (say) a sidebar. Of course, then I decided to see what else I could build into the widget as well as the Progress Bars and decided that a list of FO would also be nice.
WordPress Themes
I’ve now got 10 WordPress themes listed at wordpress.org!
I think I’ll give them a rest now and stick to making new themes available on Quirm.net.
