An interesting blog plugin came to my attention recently that enable the blogger to go into some of the WordPress functions and tweak them. Some of the features of this plugin include:
- Remove “nofollow” from comment author links
- Remove “nofollow” from comment body links
- Open external comment links in new windows
- Open external post links in new windows
- Show post excerpts (instead of full content) on archive pages
- Add “nofollow” to the “Register” and “Login” links
There are more features available listed on the download site. WordPress Tweaks blog plugin can be downloaded and quickly installed with little drama. One of the convenient things about a plugin like this is that it performs several jobs and may even enable you to remove two or three plugins that you have used in the past.
With the update of WordPress to 2.5.1 it may well be time to check each of your blog plugins for updates. While you are at it double check to see whether or not you really need that plugin.
Blog plugins are everywhere and just occasionally you come across one that can do the job of two plugins. One less blog plugin means your system will run just that touch faster.
