Plugin updated: My Favorite Posts

Freebies, WordPress Plugins Oct 10, 2008 1 Comment

Because of popular demand I recently updated the favorite posts plugin I created a while ago. Since I do not have much time to spare, I wasn’t able to include all features that were suggeste by my readers, but I could implement two that were highly demanded:

  • The plugin comes with widget support now
  • You can display other peoples favorite posts now (for example on an authors page to display his or her favorite posts)

To take a glimpse how it works you can create an account on my wordpress test installation.
If you like the theme presented there head over to themeforest and download it for a small fee.
Plugin Download is, of course for free, here.
