Tip #6 : Enhancing WordPress administration: Whenever I update a WordPress blog I think how overly complicated the ‘Write Post’ page is. There are lots of different pieces that you could use - most of which I have never had cause to touch. The post linked to suggests using Clutter Free to improve matters and, having installed this plugin, I am impressed. The ‘Write Post’ page is now so much more simple.
From the same set of tips I also added WP-AddQuicktag, which allows me to add some more quicktags for the chunks I html I often use. The code, as linked to, needs a small edit to make it work on all update/edit pages. Edit the line:
if(strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], ‘post.php’) || strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], ‘page-new.php’) ) {
to be:
if(strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], ‘post.php’) || strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], ‘page.php’) || strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], ‘page-new.php’) || strpos($_SER VER['REQUEST_URI'], ‘post-new.php’) ) {
