I have been thinking of putting together a new WordPress plugin. I have category magic and it is doing a good job. There are some some modifications I need to do with it as I have noticed a few things it could do better and more efficiently, but I really want to create a new plugin. I am looking for suggestions for a new and interesting plugin. Is there any WordPress functionality you are looking for? Anything that could be interesting to do? I was thinking about something with tags that are built into the newest WordPress version, but any ideas would be appreciated.

category magic is interesting but I think you could expand it to do something more powerful. search multiple categories. imagine a sidebar with the categories listed and next to each you have a checkbox. underneath you have a ‘search checked categories’ button that returns only posts that belong to all those categories.
What do you think?
let me know if you think it is interesting.
That is interesting. It would be a good idea for a new version of a search plugin. Basically, it would take the search output and then only display the categories that are checked.
I found a plugin that associates pages with categories at stuff.yellowswordfish.com/page-category-plus/.
I have been looking for a plugin that would take the first picture from a page or post in a specific category and/or child-categories to display sort of a thumbnail gallery index or photo directory for the category and the pages beneath (child-pages). The thumbnails would be linked to the page/post that the photo is from.
I have no programming experience except for college courses that briefly touched on this. But I have been looking in to writing it myself. If you could write this I would very much appreciate it because it will take me a while to climb the learning curve to do this on my own.
Anyway, thanks for any feedback …
