Sticky-Fields, a WordPress plugin to save and retrieve fields

You can now edit custom fields (content you use the most) from within the administration, such as a headline, proverb or phone number.

You retrieve a field content in your PHP template like this:

global $stickyfield;
echo $stickyfield->field['name-of-your-field'];

With this plugin, you don’t need to modify your templates each time you want to update some hard-coded text.

G-map, a WordPress plugin to display Google maps

Would you like to display a Google map like this one within your posts or pages?

It’s really easy with this plugin. Activate G-map, enter your Google Maps API key (get it from there: http://www.google.com/apis/maps/signup.html), add a new address. The Google magic should return the latitude and longitude of your spot: copy / paste and save.

Call your map with this code:

[MAP: %your map name%]

Et voilĂ !

Plugin available for free (GPL license) from this link:
G-map 1.0-beta (tgz)
G-map 1.0-beta (zip)

ALEW, advanced layout plugin for WordPress

I’ve started to write this plugin to have a greater control over some layout features in WordPress. I’ll add more functions as I feel a need for new features or get any suggestions.

Download links:

ALEW 1.1 (tgz)

ALEW 1.1 (.zip)


alew_teaser ( [string min_height [, string max_height [, string more_link_text [, string allowable_tags]]]] )


This function may replace the_content() when you want to display only the teaser. alew_teaser(), in a same manner, will force WordPress to display the part of the post (or page) above the quicktag <!–more–>. the_content(), on the contrary, lets WordPress choose on its own whether it should display the teaser or the full content.
