New blog feature – Post Rating System

TheCuso — Wed, 23 Jul 2008 15:41:27 +0000

I’ve just installed a new WordPress plugin that allows users to rate the posts, displays the total number of votes and the average rating for each one.

WP-PostRatings will hopefuly help me to select the topics or videos you like more and will be a great tool for upcoming competitions and contests.

Now it’s time to dive in the archives and start rating the good old posts, i will blog the top rated ones every once in a while so now it’s your chance to exhume the best videos, articles and interviews.

Do you want to be featured again in the front page? Tell your friends to rate your videos.

What do you think about this? Leave a comment and click any number of stars.

WordPress 2.5 and new blog features

WordPress 2.5 upgrade
I’ve just upgraded the blogging system to wordpress 2.5 and it works like a charm.
The install process was really easy using the WordPress Automatic upgrade plugin and I didn’t have any problems with it, takes like 10 mins to download and replace the files but it is worthy.
It has a lot of new features and the dashboard got a nice redesign, check it out if you are already using wordpress or download it for free if you are still a blogger/blogspot user.

Avatars in your comments
If you want to use an avatar in your blog comments you have to go to Gravatar and sign up for yours for free.
A gravatar, or globally recognized avatar, is quite simply an avatar image that follows you from weblog to weblog appearing beside your name when you comment on gravatar enabled sites.
The good thing is that whenever anyone clicks on your avatar or name they’ll be redirected to any url at your choice.
If you dont have a blog or a website you can use your youtube channel, myspace or facebook account or whatever you want, so the more you comment the more exposure you get.

Entrecard Widget
This is mostly for bloggers. Entrecard is a free 125×125 banner exchange system that im testing on top of the sidebar. Every day a new blog ad will show up there. If you have a blog or you plan to do one I would highly suggest you to give it a try because it is driving me a lot of incoming traffic every day.
