Have you tried the Socializer plugin for wordpress yet? Remember what Socializer does? It is just a wordpress plugin for easy social bookmarking.

Well now I have found even a better one - OnlyWire.

Just like socializer, OnlyWire allows users to submit your articles and web pages to multiple social bookmarking engines at once. The main difference between these two tools are, OnlyWire is a lot better because it can automatically bookmark to 15 updated social bookmarking sites.

Here is the list of those 15 sites: Backflip, Blinklist, Blogmemes, del.icio.us, Feedmelinks, Furl, Linkroll, Looklater, ma.gnolia, Maple, Markaboo, Rawsugar, Shadows, Simpy and Wink.

How to Setup OnlyWire?

1. Register at OnlyWire for a FREE account.
2. Login and Submit the username and password of the social bookmarking sites.
3. Save your ID & password
4. Drag a Drop your OnlyWire bookmark link in your browser’s toolbar.
5. Now you can use the link to bookmark your site using OnlyWire.
6. Go to the page that you would like to bookmark, then click on the OnlyWire link on browser’s toolbar. Depending on your link type (standard or frame), it will open a new page or frame header.
7. Now enter your tags and comments, then submit.

All your previous tags will be recorded. Your page title and URL will automatically be inserted. You can also select your choice of social bookmark sites to be used. By default all of them will be preselected.

I think this is a must have tool for all bloggers in today’s blog network arena!

Many of you like to put a lot of social book marking buttons at the bottom of every post in your blog. It is rather messy if you do not control the number of buttons. So I figured that Socializer might be a good solution for your blog.

Socializer is all-in-1 social book marking button for your wordpress blog. It replaces all the social bookmark buttons (such as digg, simpy, Del.icio.us, Technorati etc.) with only one Socializer button. When a visitor clicks on that button, it will lead him straight to a huge list of social bookmark database (44 sites). There, your visitor can bookmark your page at their choice of social book marking site.

Socializer claims that the submission is completely manual. The only downside of the script is, you will have to open 10 new windows if say you want to bookmark a page in 10 social book marking site.

I just converted a clients blog from a MyST Blogsite hosted solution to WordPress. There were 950 posts in 6 categories and there were a number of tags and URL & in the posts that didn’t validate W3C for the XHTML 1.0 strict doctype.

So I had one of my coders code up a plugin that changes “&” to “&” and changes other tags so the posts are all W3C compliant.

Here is the Post W3C Complier Wordpress Plugin download.

Well I guess this is WordPress Plugin day. I noted the other day in in my Long URLs Break Layout post that long URLs break tabled layout. The Tabled layout I was having problems with wasn’t was in WordPress so you will see in the Long URLs Break Layout post I had to change the font to a large font to make my point.

Well that is because I had Jim Wigginton’s Force Word Wrapping plugin installed. AsyoucanseeJimspluginwhichpreventslongsentancesconstructedlikethisfrom horizontallystretchingthepage. But the forced word wrap is calculated for the default font size.

As soon as you increase the font size lines don’t word wrap correctly. See the below example.

As noted in my Long URLs Break Layout post you then apply an “overflow: hidden;” style to the line to hide the overflow. Like the following line.

Here is the download for Jim’s Force Word Wrapping WordPress plugin.
