Comment on Virtual Multiblog for WordPress by Stephen R

Tim G — See the previous comment. Yes it still works with current versions of WordPress. This site still runs on VMB.

The core system is very stable, and pretty future proof. It takes a significant, low-level change to WordPress to break VMB. In fact, in the history of VMB I don’t believe I’ve EVER seen a change in WordPress that broke VMB for existing installs.

As for future development, I’m not sure when, if ever, the single login change will happen. That almost warrants an entirely new plugin — it’s more than a minor feature, and I like VMB’s stability born of simplicity.

Comment on WordPress Plugin: Graceful Pull-Quotes by Stephen R

Erico — The pull-quote is placed at the top of the *parent* of the span. So if you have an HTML paragraph, and the span is inside that paragraph, the pull-quote will be placed at the beginning of the containing paragraph. (The paragraph is the parent of the span).

So it sounds as though you have the span outside of any paragraphs, and thus the pull-quote is being placed at the top of the Post Div, or something like that.

Make sure the span is inside a paragraph and that should fix your problem.

Hi!
Thank you for a the great Pullquote plugin.
Today I have a second quote right at the end of my text and it insists in moving up to the beginning of the story (where I already have the first pullquote, not nice). The ending quote moves up even if I erase the first one.
I thought the pullquotes where anchored to the text area where they belong. May I convince my quote to stay at the end of the text?
Best regards from Sweden

Hi Stephen,

I have been checking WordPress plugin development articles and tutorials for the last three days and I can say that yours are among the best ones. Especially this array tip was extremely helpful for my plugin which will have many options.

I’m trying to get this working, but no luck so far. Would love to get an answer to the question of whether this works with WP3.x since so-called multisite has been added to the base functionality. I especially like the idea that long term you’re aiming at trying to achieve a one-signin-for-all solution.

Are we still in development with this?
