WP Plugin: PR, Alexa, Compete, Technorati rank buttons – all in one

by Ades on May 29, 2007 in Scripts, WordPress with 12 Comments

Jon’s Showoff Rankings plugin for WordPress shows the rank buttons for Google’s PageRank, Alexa, and Technorati as shown to the left. There is also “Compete” button, which is retrieved from http://snapshot.compete.com‘s data.

There is also similar script at http://www.showoffrankings.com which is not a WP plugin, but a normal javascript that you can enter in your blog. It does the same thing. I think it’s still a Jon’s site.

It’s a nice plugin, it allows me to see the ranks without checking it manually. I am using it on the right side.

adesguestbook sign page

AdesGuestbook is a FREE php/mysql guestbook that I have developed back in 2004. It’s a CSS based guestbook that uses single css file for the look and feel. Therefore customization is very easy. You can also easily integrate it to any PHP page using < php include > tags. Here is an example of integration: Non-integrated version and integrated version.

In the new release CAPTCHA has been integrated into the sign page. Admin Area has been also modified to make the editing of the messages easier (edit and delete buttons have been added beside every entry). Next release will have RSS subscription and more features for admin area. So stay tuned!

So far it has been downloaded 11,710 times (as of today). You can download the new version here or go to script details page at my site.

phpAdsNew is now OpenAds.org

by Ades on March 20, 2007 in Scripts with No comments

One of the most popular ad management scripts phpAdsNew has been rebranded as OpenAds. Good news is that, it will still stay FREE! (Open Source)

Google Adsense click-tracking integration
OpenAds now allows you to track your AdSense ads, previously phpAdsNew could only show the statistics for displaying the AdSense ads, but now it has the ability to track the clicks. OpenAds does not actually modify the HTML since that would be in violation of the Google AdSense terms and conditions. Instead, Google AdSense ads are automatically detected and handled as a special case using some clever Javascript techniques.

People at OpenAds say: “The developers behind Openads are the same people who brought you phpAdsNew, phpPgAds and Max Media Manager products. phpAdsNew users can rest assured that their favourite product – as Openads 2.0 – will receive continued support and planned development in the years to come.”

Well, that’s good to know! www.openads.org

Yshout! is a AJAX+CSS+PHP based shout-box script. It is XHTML compliant and very easy to install. Here you can see the working demo. The name of the script looks like as if it is from Yahoo! Maybe the author wants Yahoo! to acquire this script, maybe? http://yurivish.com/yshout/

Krugle is a search engine for programmers, it contains almost all programming language codes. Programmers can find and review source codes, also save and share it with others.

So next time if you are developing a new script you might want to search Krugle first, you can get the code and modify it according to your needs. www.krugle.com

Script for displaying any website’s screenshot – Free

by Ades on September 10, 2006 in Screenshot Takers, Scripts with 10 Comments

Using the following script you can display any site’s screenshot in your html, similar to the one above. This is particularly useful for directory sites that want to show a screenshot along the listing details. Replace the url with your own. If you want to use this in your directory script then you should replace the url with your directory url variable, example: $URL

<img src=”http://msnsearch.srv.girafa.com/srv/i?s=MSNSEARCH&r=http://www.adesblog.com” align=absmiddle border=”1″ width=120 height=90>

As you might know Alexa.com also provides a similar service, but they charge $0.0002 / thumbnail shown (i.e. $0.20 per 1,000 thumbnails). For more details see http://aws.amazon.com/ast

Nice Javascript Gallery Script – Identical to Flash

by Ades on September 5, 2006 in Scripts with 6 Comments

Couloir.org uses a nice photo gallery that is programmed in javascript. It has all the features of a flash script, like preloading features and nice rollover effects that are normally not seen in javascript scripts. However these days we are seeing more advanced and usable javascripts, I have reported one such script here previously.

The author of Couloir.com was nice enough to provide the code for javascript photo gallery at this page, or you can directly download the script here.

Ohloh.net – open source projects directory

by Ades on July 17, 2006 in Online Tools, Scripts with No comments

Ohloh.net is a directory for open source projects. It collects software metrics from a variety of sources including the projectâ€™s source code and the software development infrastructure used by the projectâ€™s development team. It’s especially good if you want to see the activity on the project, whether the project is still being developed if yes who are the developers contributing the most to the project. It shows the activity in a graphical representation.

Lightbox JS is a nice Image Preview Script created by Lokesh Dhakar. It loads the larger view of the image in the same window instead of pop-up window that many of us use. It has a nice look and a loading feature while the image is being loaded.
