My first WordPress plugin – Link Library
I have been using WordPress as the engine behind my web log for almost a year now and find it’s been getting better all the time. However, there was one little piece of functionality that was missing for my needs, a way to create a link page from the data I entered in the links section of the admin area. I wanted to display links with large descriptions, a list of all link categories at the top of the page and a way to replace the description with the notes field since the notes field is longer and is contents are not displayed in the links admin page.
After looking around, I decided to create my own plugin to fill in the functionality that I needed. Version 0.1 of the Link Library for WordPress 1.5 is now available on the official WordPress plugin site. To see the plugin in action, take a look at the newly revamped links section on the site.
If there is anything you would like to see that is not there, feel free to drop me a note.
