Expanded Category Magic Thoughts

As I have mentioned before, I am doing a redevelopment of my Category Magic Plugin. I have reworked a lot of code and write I am in the testing phase. I have made some enhancements to the general structure of the plugin in order to make it flow better. I didn’t just stop at making the code flow better.

WordPress has made some changes along the way and the big addition has been tags. That means new features and tags are the biggest one when it comes to Category Magic. New changes I made in the code also include support for tags. I have listened to suggestions here and I decided to make sure that they was support for excerpts and full posts in the code.

All of this has introduced a brand new problem. As I prepare to release it, should I release it all as updates to category magic or should I just make the simple changes to Category Magic and release another plugin titled Expanded Category Magic, or something to that effect?

I’d love to hear some advice. Right now I am looking at having the new changes available for download within a couple of days of the release of 2.7. Now’s the time to make your voices heard.

RSS Content Generation

I have finally started work on a new project. It still is in its beginning phase so it’s not ready for public download yet, but I can’t stop gushing about it. It’s an RSS Content Generation Script for WordPress.

Basically it works by pulling in feeds from across the internet and making them into posts that can either be put inside a WordPress database or can be created as stand alone flat files. This will work alongside the new enhancements I am making to Category Magic. I know there are these type of scripts out there, but none have the simplicity that mine has.

I think that this will be a unique script and I am considering selling the script, but maybe I will just ask for donations for further development.

Need WordPress Plugin Suggestions

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.
