tpflanzMemberHi! I just discovered WordPress Helpers today and I love it! I’ve already been able to remove/delete a dozen snippets and plugins!
I watched the demo on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYSUDvodWxI&hd=1), but the plugin is pretty self-explanatory, as it is.
Here are a few feature suggestions that expand upon some of the options already available in WordPress Helpers. I tried to only include suggestions that I believe are similar to current features:
- More control over excerpt – I use Advanced Excerpt (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/advanced-excerpt/) to control my excerpts. I love the option to complete a sentence/paragraph and allow some markup, while removing other. I think these options would be awesome in your plugin!
- Allow login with username or password – I use WP Email Login (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-email-login/) for this currently.
- Stop people from commenting using an email address that is already registered on the website – This is useful to make sure users are logged in, to remind them they already have an account. Currently, I use Impostercide (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/impostercide/)
- Hide trackbacks and pingbacks in comments – Almost as annoying as getting a ping back email when I mention my own website is seeing trackbacks and pingbacks in my comments section. I currently use Hide Trackbacks (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/hide-trackbacks/)
- Login page modifications – Change login page image, image title and image link URL. Currently, I use Custom Admin Branding (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/custom-admin-branding/)
- Change admin area footer text – I use Custom Admin Branding
- Mail Options – I use a combo of SB Welcome Email Editor (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/welcome-email-editor/) and WP Mail Options (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-options/)
Thanks for this great plugin!

SteveKeymaster@tpflanz– Great list! Thanks for the ideas.
We might integrate some of these features, but definitely not all. Some of these plugins just have too many features for Helpers. For example, though it might be a good idea to change the email address and name that comes from WordPress, we wouldn’t add all the extensive features in wp-mail-options.
FYI “Hide trackbacks and pingbacks in comments” is already in Helpers.

tpflanzMemberIs this the setting in – Discussion Tab >> Trackbacks / Pingbacks >> Self Pings >> Disable
If so, thanks! It ‘s not completely clear that ALL trackbacks and pingbacks are removed from comments.

SteveKeymasterThat setting is only for Self Pings. If you want to disable them, I believe this is a core setting under DISCUSSION. Uncheck “Allow link notifications from other blogs (pingbacks and trackbacks) “
