SexyBookmarks & Tr.im

April 23, 2010 | Published in: Out of the Blue | Tags: , , 1

Just a notice to users of the brilliant http://www.sexybookmarks.net/ plugin by shareaholic – If you use tr.im (as I have on a few client sites) be aware tr.im has ceased operation so you may see errors on your blog or in your source code; it screwed up the background and headings on one of my blogs.

To fix, go to sexybookmarks options, switch services in the “Which URL Shortener?” box, and tick the box to reset all short urls. Once done, your blog should return to normal.

I have had some requests asking me to improve the WordPress Download Monitor documentation, so I decided to write (and maintain) this post explaining the ins-and-outs of configuring and using the plugin. Hopefully it will help you guys use the plugin, and also reveal more of its power and flexibility.

Don’t forget, if you love download monitor please make a small donation and/or rate it on the wordpress plugins directory. I also appreciate your contributions to the development of the plugin, so feel free to email me any code or your suggestions. Your support is very welcome!

JQuery Curvy Corners 2 Early Beta Available

I have uploaded a beta of JQCC2, based on the beta version 2.0 of the official script. This now includes support for jQuery 1.3.

There are still many optimisations to make and tests to perform, but the examples included in the zip work in IE6, IE7, Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and (excluding the CSS selector feature) Opera. My version does differ from the official script; mainly the fact that boxes are not fixed width/height.

If you find bugs, want to contribute fixes, or want to help extend the plugin please leave your comments.

Finally, special thanks to Terry Riegel, Cameron Cooke and Tim Hutchison who made the original CurvyCorners script; they did all the hard work!

Update: Beta 2 uploaded
