Favourite WordPress Plugins

Anyone know of a plugin to strip all post titles regardless if they've been entered ?

It's for auhiphop.com. As you can see I've got a small duplicate issue.

I notice you still have the problem. Are you sure it's not a theme/template issue?

Just been having a look to see what's out there at the moment and found a couple of plugins/themes that look alright.

Formidable Pro: Alternative to Gravity Forms with lifetime pricing (as opposed to Gravity Forms' annual payment... unless you bought it early)

TVC Toolset: Build complete Wordpress Sites without coding. Lifetime licence available for $295.

Ultimatum Theme: (Newish) drag and drop theme with lifetime member option for $125.

Have you found any others?

Also just stumbled across Elegant PURL for personalising landing pages to your database.

this is a good thread but perhaps we should now split it into "free" and "paid" plugins, i think that would be valid, what do others think?

I use Skin Login

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/skin-login/

It changes the logo and few other cool options.

I don't see a reason to.

just love'n this ubermenu
http://wpmegamenu.com/ , just $16, but has a world of features I haven't even got anywhere near just yet.

so I thought i'd show you a site i'm using it on, still in dev mode.

http://www.aztecproducts.com.au/

scroll over the top nav " products "

you can create title and not have to link to them which has always been a pain in studiopress.

VideoZen is a great plugin for self hosting video. It makes use of VideoJS, Zencoder & AWS.

In other words it encodes the video for streaming, converts it into multiple formats optimised for desktop, mobile etc and then uploads it to Amazon cloud hosting before finally rendering it in HTML5 with Flash fallback.

By VideoZen, put Self hosted video on your WordPress or WordPress multisite, be as simple as activating the plugin, get an account at Amazon S3 and Zencoder, upload a video in Media and put a simple WordPress shortcode in a page or post.

When the page or post is viewed, the plugin will build everything you need with all the videos formats needed to be reproduced in any browser, tablet or mobile from Amazon S3. And with Flash fallback.

The Plugin also supports subtitles type VTT, which are the standard HTML5 . Just have to upload it to WordPress media with the name that indicate you the plugin and will be automatically inserted into the video.

Works perfectly.

creating columns in WP pages, there's a few around but i've been using this one recently and its very simply

https://wordpress.org/plugins/wens-responsive-column-layout-shortcodes/

it adds an icon to your text editor and sets up your columns automatically, all you do is tell it how many columns you want

might ask a 'short codes' question , when i recently changed hosting i uploaded a site that was using shortcodes and the content was lost, i had to redo the lot (a voting website) Is this normally the case with shortcodes ?? Love to know

Doesn't happen to me, it might be better to open a thread as it will get messy with opinions

Hey guys,

You've provided some great plugs in there, I will need to look at wordfence further.

My contribution, which hasn't been listed(or I may have missed it).

Contact form DB - https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7-to-database-extension/
Save a copy of form submissions to the database, I use this as a back up in case webserver can't deliver mail, or clients are good at losing mail .
I use it with contact form 7 all the time, but looks like it also supports gravity forms as well.

Antispam Bee - https://wordpress.org/plugins/antispam-bee/
pretty much like akismet, but you don't need to register to use it.

Add from server - https://wordpress.org/plugins/add-from-server/
Allows you to upload files via FTP and then "add from server" adds it to wp's media library.

Media Library Assistant - https://wordpress.org/plugins/media-library-assistant/
A more detailed way to manage your media than the usual media library.

Hope you find some of these useful.

Chris.

Gravity does that by default.

Easy Bootstrap Shortcodes is a handy plugin.

Regenerate Thumbnails is also good to have.

But without a doubt, my favourite plugin is ACF.

Also, not a plugin but is anybody else using Roots.io? It's made WP development almost enjoyable
