Hacked WordPress Plugins

Sometimes I feel the need to hack a wordpress plugin to do something slightly different to the original purpose.
Whilst I do sometimes provide information about the hacks I perform, many people don’t take action and use the code fragments to use their own hacked version. This can be for a number of reasons, and looking at php code for the first time can be quite scary.

Thus I am going to start providing hacked copies of the plugins from this page.

  • Hacked Plugins will still be under their original license
  • The distributed plugins should not be looked on as a branch of the original
  • In general I will not be providing support for the plugins, though I don’t mind answering the odd comment or request
  • I will publish the changes I have made
  • No guarantee of future updates in line with the original releases
  • Some plugins have update notifications – currently I intend to leave those “as is”, thus you would be notified of an update in the original, not the hacked version.

I am making these hacks for my own use, thus the changes I make will only be enough to identify the plugin as a hacked version, and provide the functionality I require.

Antisocial

Hacked version of the Sociable plugin that includes nofollow on all links.
Other than name, the changes are similar to the changes detailed here .
All filenames and folders are identical to original, and they probably cannot co-exist.

This distribution now includes the Stumbleupon fix and TwitThis added by Jemmille.

This distribution now has support for Sphinn

Please be aware of the bugs with Sociable and WordPress 2.2.1 – it works when you are saving preferences, but it doesn’t look like it does.

This plugin remains for historical purposes, but could be looked on as obsolete
