Plugins
Anti-Spam
- Akimset
- Filters out spam-link comments based on their content
- reCAPTCHA - disabled - there were accessibility issues
- Requires users to copy a distorted word before they can comment
Metadata
- COinS Quicktags Button
- In the non-WYSIWYG editor, can be used to build a basic COinS tag. This has been abandoned in favor of the generator at http://generator.ocoins.info/.
- unAPI Server
- Provides information about articles. Useful for Zotero users.
Presentation
- SyntaxHighlighter Evolved
- Post syntax-highlighted code.
- C4LJ Custom the_author()
- Replaces the text returned by the_author() with the value of the "author" custom field. Necessary since articles are entered by their editors, but we want author information to appear on the articles and in the syndication feeds.
- C4LJ Permissions
- Lets authors see pending posts.
- C4LJ Remove Parents
- Remove parent directories & "category" from category permalinks.
URLs
- C4LJ Remove Parents
- A customization of http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/remove-parents/. Prettifies category URLs so that issues appear at
http://journal.code4lib.org/issues/issue1instead ofhttp://journal.code4lib.org/issues/issues/issue1. - FeedBurner FeedSmith
- Redirects the main feed and the general comments feed to FeedBurner
Workflow
- Issue Manager
- Enables one-click publishing of new issues, and prevents articles from being published until their associated issue is published.
- Role Manager
- Allows creation of custom roles and editing of roles' permissions. Used to create the Reviewer role, which can read Private articles, so that authors can see their articles before publication, and to prevent editors from publishing articles on accident.
Upgrading
These fixes were necessary for WP < 2.5, but should not be needed any longer.
Save the <div>s
Edit wp-includes/js/tinymce/tiny_mce_config.php, around line 25.
$valid_elements = '-strong/-b[*],-em/-i[*],-font[*],-ul[*],-ol[*],-li[*],*[*]';
"Submit for Review"
Edit wp-admin/includes/post.php. After line 71 (in version 2.3.3) add:
// START FIX
if ('publish' == $_POST['post_status'] && !current_user_can( 'publish_posts' )) {
$post =& get_post( $post_ID );
if ('publish' != $post->post_status)
$_POST['post_status'] = 'pending';
}
// END FIX
Issue Manager Plugin
To Publish an Issue
- Assign timestamps to the articles in the order you want them to appear on the page (newest timestamps go at the top of the page)
- Go to the Issue Manager page in the "Manage" tab.
- Click "Publish" next to the category for the issue you want to publish.
- All "Pending Review" articles with the given category (that don't also have an "unpublished" category) will be published, with the timestamps updated to about now, retaining the order established earlier.
To Prevent Early Publication of Articles
- Go to the Issue Manager page in the "Manage" tab.
- Click "Unpublish" next to the category for the issue you want to keep unpublished.
- Any published articles with that category will revert to "Pending Review" status. Any new articles you attempt to publish will instead be set to "Pending Review".
Google Code Repository
The theme and plugins used by the Journal are available via Google Code. Some of the plugins are described on Jonathan Brinley's blog.
