Realizing that a lot of our fellow Plonistas are blogging with WordPress, I thought his post would have some relevance. We recently upgraded to WordPress 2.7.1. If you’ve been lax about moving from 2.6.x to the latest version, you should take a few minutes to make the change! The new admin interface is very pleasing to the eye, and provides more intuitive interactions as well.
We also stumbled upon a great little Word Press Plugin: Code Snippet; theoretically it’s outdated, but it is working fine in our install. For those who post code snippets, I’d strongly encourage you to take a look at this plugin. With a simple wrapper, you will have well formatted code with syntax highlighting write within your blog post.
Example
if getattr(self.context, 'getText'): lst.append((num_brains and div_start or div_start2) + self.context.getText() + div_end)
*unfortunately, the syntax highlighting doesn’t get pushed over into planet.plone.org….so…a bit less effective than I originally wanted it to be.
