Thanks for the list always looking for ideas from other schools for our own sites.

Still works for me. I didn’t see it on the list of plugins for 2.5 at the time of this writing, but I installed it anyway and it seems to work. I even added the new “My Universe” page at the top a couple days ago and it works great. Remember when you create a page you need to add a new command that is links_to and then the value is the complete web address including http:// works for me….maybe a theme thing?

Sorry Simon most of these themes I’m using are not portable to Wordpress MU. Hopefully some day as WordPress MU is on it’s way to releasing Version 2.0.

Does Page_Links_To still work for you? I found that in 2.5 it stopped working. Of course, there was no warning.

We’re never really done with our blogs, are we? I like that part of them; that we can always improve on them. I really like the functionality of 2.5. I don’t post from there, as I have a couple of different blog editing apps that I use instead, but everything else is handier. I’m glad I upgraded right away.

You’ve got a nice set of plugins here that I haven’t heard of; I’m going to add this one to my del.icio.us links list (http://del.icio.us/rickscheibner) and come back and check it out later when I have more time. Thanks for posting these!

Are you kidding. This site is just a big playground for me. Always things to add things to move around, new looks, etc. With WordPress release a major update about every 8 months or so it keeps you on your toes. But that’s a good thing. Continue to push myself to learn more coding, think about design, etc.

It relieves me to hear you say “the site is always a work in progress.” Lately, as I discover new widgets, gizmos, –I find myself wanting to change my site, improve it, make it better, rethink how I’ve organized my content and navigation.

I love your portfolio. I’m currently leading my students through their own portfolio creations, trying to improve my own as a model for them. Tackling the portfolio, as we’re discovering, can be daunting. It’s a bit like Spring cleaning: the deeper into you get, the messier it becomes, and temporary disorder seems to be a natural byproduct of the process.
