New WordPress plugin: Post Links Redux
I’m working on a theme for a well-known webcomic (sorry, can’t say which yet), and needed the post navigation template tags in WordPress to behave differently. No one could point to an easy way to get them to work the way I needed them to, so I whipped up a quick plugin that changes the way these tags work. For more information and to download a copy, please visit the Post Links Redux page.
Also, I added a new menu entry to the navigation links at the top of the page. If you’ll notice, there’s now an entry for “wordpress” up there. If you click on this link, it will take you to a page that lists all my publicly-released WordPress extensions (plugins, widgets, themes, etc). There are only two entries on that page at the present (CTC and PLR), but there are more to come (including my first public theme for WordPress)…stay tuned… 🙂

This was my response to this post on Reddit.
"A game, really?"

How does one respond to that? Better yet, how does one respond to Death? Not death, as in the end of life. Death as in the (un)living embodiment of the hereafter.
I'll say this, it's been a hell of a ride!
When I created my plugin many years ago, I never thought it would be come so popular. I figured I'd get a few downloads here and there, but as of this afternoon, it's been downloaded 97,586 times...that's amazing! It also makes what I'm about to say even harder.
