The AlexKing.org website has been a sought after site for WordPress fans just because simply put, the site is just too useful. From WordPress theme designs to plugins… I’ve hit that site many times over. Now a lot of you would agree that googling “WordPress plugin” would eventually result in the AlexKing.org site as part of the top ten list. One plugin that I loved was the Alex King’s Popularity Contest WordPress plugin.
Recently, we at BloggingPro.com recieved a tip from plugin developer Jake Bohall of GrapeThinking regarding a version of Alex King’s Popularity Contest that he’s developed that displays the most popular post that’s RELATIVE to the post that’s currently displayed. He ventured the term “smarter”, tough words … but it probably is. I remember I once was looking for a widget that can do that. If i’m in a section of the blog that talks about gardening, I would want the popular posts of gardening as well now would I? :) I think this is an awesome addition for the general blogging public. While Alex King’s version rocks… this one… well, err… hip-hops!
Jake Bohall’s version is compatible with WordPress 2.5 or higher. Have a looksie and download to try it out. Just don’t forget to tell us what you think too ayt!
Peace.
