WP-Cats, Now With jQuery

October 26th, 2007 7

This is a pretty pedestrian way to break a month’s silence, but the [0.2 version of WP-Cats](http://uwmike.com/wordpress/wp-cats/) is out. I’ve rewritten the JavaScript so that I’m no longer completely ashamed of it; the closures are a lot cleaner now, and it makes extensive use of [jQuery](http://jquery.com/) for DOM manipulation and bits of animation.

There’s also a cool new feature where if you add a category to a particular post, you can double-click the plus-button on another post to add the same category to that one. This could be handy if you’ve created a new category and want to quickly go through and tag a bunch of posts with it.

In this release, I made a really serious effort to remove dependencies on Wordpress code, especially on the WP admin panel markup. Using jQuery offers greater flexibility regarding what can be conveniently used as JavaScript hooks, and this time around the main hooks are all inserted by a filter, hopefully making the overall system much more tolerant of future upgrades. Oh, and it all works on Safari now.

Discussion

When I use your plugin, I can’t see the “add” and “minus” option in the post manage tab as the pictures in your blog( the only different from my original tab is that a post id was added before the categories). Can you check that for me?

I used WP2.3, and thought that you might use WP2.31, so I upgraded my WP. But this problem was not solved.

Sorry, the options appear now, thought I don’t know why.

I tried to do a similar thing, but obviously the WP guys changed the output on the post management page to list the categories with no hook provided. Spotted out any way already, Mike?

Hey Mike,

just incase youre still planning to make a 2.5 version, I’d like to inform you that I included inline cat management to my plugin: http://www.schloebe.de/wordpress/admin-management-xtended-plugin/

Just so you know.

My inexperienced friends commonly address resume writing services privately, which most can invent correct resumes. They investigate that well-progressive experts use fresh declarations and useful information point-device. They are precisely interested with terminations. I secret I shall go this extraordinary guide; because I believe that they prepared writers privately help me.
