I've had a couple people say "If anyone has suggestions, I will build some plugins..." Well - for those of you who said that - I am taking you all up on your offer.
Hopefully the plugins that Mike and I have made will be of help along with our plugin codex
Here is a small list I sketched up as ones I want to develop, but I don't have the time. If anyone needs an additional hook or two to make their plugin work, let me know here.
1. Disqus.com Comments
- Integrate Disqus.com comments into pages
2. Ad Manager
- Ability to upload image, text and a link
3. Hide email PHP Function
- http://www.maurits.vdschee.nl/php_hide_email/
4. Flickr gallery integration
5. Twitter Integration
- A plugin to auto-tweet when a new page is created
- A plugin that lists recent tweets of the user via the API
6. HTML version of sitemap
- Could reuse some code that is in /admin/sitemap.php
7. OpenID Login
- Replace GS login system with OpenID
8. Facebook Connect Login
- Replace GS login system with Facebook Connect
9. Add to .htaccess
(use file_get_contents() function to read contents then write a new combined version back to the server)
- A plugin to create affiate links
- A plugin to add 302 redirects for when old sites get moved to the new GS page structure
- A plugin to add the Perishable Press 3G Blacklist to your root level .htaccess file - http://perishablepress.com/press/2008/05...blacklist/
10. Sample content for theme developers
- Maybe not a true plugin, but something like this would be extremely helpful - http://snipplr.com/view/8121/html-test-p...tyle-guide
11. Regenerate thumbnails - /data/thumbs/thumbnail.*
- Recreate all thumbnails for images in /data/uploads/. Use the values stored in gsconfig.php
12. SEO Pack
- Add a new custom field that separates the page title from the title within the page (whats between the H1 tags)
- Add other robots related meta tags (no-index, etc.)
13. Search Function
- Either use google custom search or create function that looks in all XML files within /data/pages/ (although this could be taxing on your server)
14. Syntax Highlighting
- Integrate syntax highlighting into the editor
15. Amazon S3
- Create auto-backups to a specified S3 account
16. Maintenance Mode
- Check for an existance of a file (maybe install.php since it gets deleted as soon as setup is complete) and show a simple "Down for Maintenance" page.
17. Concatenate CSS and JS scripts
- For both the user theme and the admin area
18. jCart Integration
- It doesn't need mySQL either! - http://conceptlogic.com/jcart/
19. Bigger and Badder Contact Form
20. Custom Themes with Custom Hooks & Plugins
- a-la Themeatic and Hybrid for WordPress=
