WP Display Header

This plugin lets you specify a header image for each post individually from your default headers and custom headers.

Description

It adds a meta box in the post edit screens with the header selection. If no specific header is specified for a post it will fall back to the default selection. There is no change of template files necessary as this plugin hooks in the existing WordPress API to unfold its magic.

WP Approve User

Adds action links to user table to approve or unapprove user registrations.

Description

This plugin lets you approve or reject user registrations.
While a user is unapproved, he/she can’t access the WordPress Admin.

On activation of the plugin, all existing users will automatically be flagged Approved. The blog admin will never experience restricted access and does not need approval.

WordCamp Berlin 2010

Status

On July, 3 2010 this year’s WordCamp Germany will take place in Berlin. Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend, since I’ll be writing my final exams at that time. Nevertheless I wanted to contribute, and so you’ll find a banner in the sidebar, explicitly inviting you to have a look and educate yourself.

HolidayCheck Blog Network

With the HolidayCheck Blog Network, I used the new multiuser functionality WordPress included in Version 3.0. Since I am operating from a subdomain I had to go with the subdirectory install for the other blogs. Using the Domain Mapping Plugin for MU, I am able to run each blog on its own subdomain. The domains point to the root WordPress installation – the plugin takes care of the rest.
Before the blog network was available, I had to hack tweak the wp-config.php file a bit to determine which top level domain is requested and have it set the right database prefix and locale. Now this isn’t necessary anymore and I can maintain plugins, themes, users etc. centrally, which reduces the maintenance overhead a lot.
