An Alternative to the BlogRush widget

[ses5909]

Our own SarahG has written a pretty cool plugin that really maintains the great concept of the BlogRush widget, yet it only shows posts that you put in your RSS feeds.

It's the What others are saying (http://www.stuffbysarah.net/blog/2007/09/25/new-wordpress-plugin/) plugin. It looks pretty nice and I will have to check it out on one of my blogs.

Thanks for the mention Sara :)

I only wrote it for my own site (like most plugins start) then someone else suddenly blogged about it calling it a plugin and I thought I'd better learn how to do one of those!

I've yet to test it on 2.3 but will get that done this week.

I know what you mean about plugins, but they can do wonders for your site, If you want help on where to submit it and promote it that can help your traffic, let me know.

[SarahG]

Sure, thanks for the offer. Once we get the admin page done and a couple of other uses for it I'll give you a shout. :)

Why not offer the plugin here for download so we don't have to go to another site to download it. :bigsmile:

SarahG, please let me know once the Plugin is out and compatible with 2.3 :D

[SarahG]

Just for you adalante I've upgraded my blog to 2.3 and it works fine :D

[ses5909]

Nice. I still need to upgrade!

[SarahG]

Just thought I'd update this thread to say that I've now released a new version complete with an admin options page so there's no editing of the plugin file :)

Now... what can I do next?! :D
