Wordpress Blog for Apple Iphone

Apple iPhone is actually making such a big hit that even wordpress is having its script available for iPhone users. Users will actually be able to upload photos, edit post or write a new post with an iPhone or iTouch. You will be able to update either Wordpress blogs hosted at your own server or Wordpress.com blogs.

This is actually pretty useful for Malaysian users since WiFi is easily available in a lot of some cafes, malls, KFCs and all Starbucks in Malaysia. People could actually blog on the move with picture taken from iPhone

I am actually hoping that iPhone 3G will be here at Malaysia, but I guess it would be long and Digi would be the last provider I am hoping could get the contract.

If you are currently holding an iPhone or iTouch. Go on to http://iphone.wordpress.org/ to find out more about the application.

Worpress Easy Uploader Plugin

WP Easy Uploader was created to make the life of WordPress bloggers easier by allowing an Administrator to add plugins, themes, and any type of file to WordPress directly from inside WordPress. You no longer have to load up an FTP client just to try out that latest plugin or to upload a text document for people to download.

Current Features

  • Upload any type of file to either the standard Uploads directory (just as images do when you are creating posts and pages) or to a path of your choosing.
  • Manual paths are automatically created if they don’t exist.
  • Easily upload plugins directly to the plugins directory and theme files directly to the themes directory.
  • You can select to have archives automatically extracted to their destination. This means that plugins and themes will be taken care of for you, but it also means that you can zip up a large set of files and upload them quickly into a folder on your site. Currently zip, tar, gz, tar.gz, tgz, and tar.bz2 archives are supported.
  • Options for overwriting existing files, renaming the fle if a file with that name already exists (or if overwriting fails), removal of the archive after file extraction, and forcing extracted files to be contained in a folder.

Planned Features

  • Customizable permissions to allow for users with privileges below Administrator to upload files. My idea is for Administrators to have full access to all the uploader’s functionality while people below Administrator won’t have access to upload themes, plugins, or to manual paths and won’t be able to overwrite files or extract archives.
  • If the above is implemented, I’d like to provide a menu of options for tailoring what minimum access level is required to access each function.
  • Also if the first item is implemented, I’d like to add logging in order to keep track of who uploaded what and when. This would be useful for keeping track of anyone (such as a contributor) who is using the file space inappropriately.
