kReese.net in 2010
January 18th, 2010 by Kristopher ReeseAfter spending a majority of the last few months of 2009 working on updating my site to make it easier to update, I finally caved in and decided to use WordPress instead of programming my own site. It took me a while to cave in simply because of the enjoyment I get from programming my site. But by using WordPress, I saved time with coding so that I can focus on schoolwork and content on the site. I look forward to finally getting more time to write on the blog rather than having to program new information.
Using WordPress has its advantages! Here’s a list of plugins that I’ve used on this version of the site:
- Akismet (Spam) – created by Matt Mullenweg
- Clean-contact (Contact Form) – created by Monkey Tree Labs
- Delete-Revision (Revision Management) – created by gohsy
- EG-Attachements (Document Library) – created by Emmanuel GEORJON
- Google XML Sitemaps (Site Map Generator) – created by Arne Brachhold
- ICS Calendar (Events Calendar) – created by Daniel Olfelt
- Multi-level Navigation Plugin (Main Navigation) – created by PixoPoint Web Development / Ryan Hellyer
- Recent Posts – created by Nick Momrik
- Sticky Menu (Secondary Navigation) – created by ericdes
- WP-Cache (Page Caching) – created by Ricardo Galli Granada
- WP-DBManger (Database Management) – created by Lester ‘GaMerZ’ Chan
- WP-Syntax (Code Syntax Highlighting) – created by Ryan McGeary
- WP Photo Album (Photo Albums) – created by Rubin J. Kaplan
Despite this, there are a few plugins that I had to create myself. This includes plugins for editing a Curriculum Vitae and creating document repositories. The theme itself was created by me specifically for kReese.net. As these plugins and themes become more stable, I will link to these through my website.
