I created a small scratch-an-itch plugin called WP-Requre-Auth a while ago. Its purpose is to disable access to a Wordpress blog if a user is not logged in. I am guessing the download statistics for this niche plugin will not exactly skyrocket, but now it is at least findable.
The Trac site is still available for [...]

Download WP Require Auth at Wordpress Plugins
Posting from the Wordpress app for iPhone
I am posting this from the Wordpress for iPhone app! Version 2.1 is great with everything one could want, except one thing.
For some reason, the wordpress app lacks a widescreen mode, which to me is astounding, given that the app is designed for, well… writing.
The blog has been very quiet for some time now as [...]
WP Require Auth plugin released
WP Require Auth is a plugin for Wordpress which makes it mandatory to be logged in before viewing any page. It is just a matter of downloading and unpacking the plugin as usual and activating it in the Plugins page in Wordpress. There is currently nothing to configure.
Head on over to the WP Require Auth [...]
Require login to view a Wordpress site
On a Wordpress site I have setup, I needed the ability to require user authentication before allowing anyone to view the website. To do this, just add the following snippet to the theme files:
get_currentuserinfo();
global $user_ID;
if ($user_ID == ”)
{
header(‘Location: wp-login.php’);
}
Now you will be greeted with the Wordpress login [...]
Who turned off the light?
So I have once again changed the theme for this site, because I just don’t have enough things to do already. I started out with the Hemingway theme and changed the color scheme, fonts, layout and some other things.
As a result, some things will definitely be broken for a while until I fix everything up. [...]
Trying out the Disqus comment system
I am trying out the Disqus comment system after hearing about it in lots of places. All old comments on this site should be synced up now, and it should just be to start using it!
It should make for a much better commenting system, while we wait for a new Wordpress version with similar features [...]
Fixed Articles plugin for Wordpress
I am a big fan of the Articles plugin by Alex King. The plugin has sadly stopped working in the last couple of Wordpress versions. I have modified it to work with the current version (2.7), and you can download the modified version below.
You can see the articles plugin in action in my articles page. [...]
Wordpress Twitter integration
If you have followed this site for a while, you might have seen some Twitter integration being done here lately. I use two plugins for the integration:
TweetSuite
Twitter Tools
TweetSuite is responsible for announcing new posts to Twitter and to display “tweetbacks” in the posts. This part is not that integrated yet, but I will work integrating [...]
Wordpress 2.7 released
Wordpress 2.7 was recently released, and now even I have made the upgrade! If you follow my blog, you probably know that I just love Wordpress (even with the bugs in Safari), and with the 2.7 upgrade it has gotten even better!
The whole admin backend is completely rewritten to among other things make it faster [...]

Almost exactly a year ago I tried out the Disqus commenting system with great success. Since then, Wordpress has gained built-in support for nested comments and other cool features available in Disqus at the time. That was the incentive I needed to stop using Disqus and revert back to Wordpress a while ago.
Since then, Disqus [...]
