As the title said, anyone know an ads plugin that can generate some kind of short code from ads script we enter, so I can use it anywhere I like? It's kinda like contact form 7 behavior.
Basically this is what I need:
1. I create the name/category of the ads (or some kind like that)
2. I type the ads script into that name/category.
3. the plugin then generate some kind of short code.
4. I can place those short code anywhere in the theme/file.
Most of ads plugins that I know doesn't freely let me place an ads, usually limited to before post/after post/certain page, etc.
WP Traffic Tools allows for widget placements, inline placements, and custom placements:

I want to achieve something like this: http://curatorsofsweden.com with DRUPAL
Here different people post over the same twitter-Account for one week. The Twitter-stream is published on the Website and you can also „time travel“ via the archive to see what which people posted in which week/days.
I want to achieve the same with DRUPAL and with a Twitter AND Instagram Account (and maybe FB too). My Idea is to import those streams with the feeds-module to treat the posts as DRUPAL-content. This way is more flexible to work with the content afterwards. But how to "automatically" map this to different users (or maybe treat a user as own content-type instead of normal DRUPAL-user?)?
What modules - or combination of modules - would you use to realize this? Im open for any suggestion!
Thanks

Edit the view/config page of the feed to include a "user reference" using terms or taxonomy. This might require using a custom hook_form_alter to tweak it a bit.
I'm pretty sure this is basic but it's been a couple of weeks I'm struggling.
I'm building a video game news type of website with Wordpress and I would like the "game sheet" to work in the same way the WordPress plugin page works (here is an example: http://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress/ )
The idea would be to have a page for each game and then this page would pull out content in each tabs to display different content:
News would be articles with the game name as a tag
Screeshots would be images from the media manager I would have tagged with the name of the game
Game review and user voting in the sidebar
etc...
Again, this seem to be a very basic taxonomy/custom post type system but I just don't know where to start and I can't find the right words to explain it to do a proper google search.
Thank you for your help.
What you need is to create a "custom post type". In other words, something like a post, but with more / different fields. I suggest you use the plugin: "custom content type manager".
After you create the custom post type you need, you will only have to create a page / post the summarizes the custom content you have built. For that you will also use the same plugin.
I have a page that shows search results containing pages that matched the search criteria. All of the pages returned are the same type of page (e.g., a person's profile). I want to add a star rating system to it so users can rate the profile.
I've tried adding a custom page attribute and updating it using the output rating helper but that didn't work. It looked like it worked but when I refreshed the page it just went back to whatever the rating was set to originally.
So, I added the "Page Ratings" add-on (https://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/page-ratings/) and installed it. There are supposed to be 2 blocks associalted with it. I'm assuming the list block is the one I need in my case. However, when I go to the page and try to add one of those blocks to my area I don't see them listed. Does anyone know how to use this add-on? There is barely any documentation for it.
You do realize this is a "pay for" application? As such, most of the Developers that do charge for their add-ons are very responsive. Not to push you away from here, but if you have a problem with the installation, payment, etc. Really should be addressed by the Developer.
I'm attempting to port a Wordpress widget plugin to a Blogger gadget, and finding them extremely different worlds. What the WP widget does is:
In the admin interface (provided by the widget object's form() method), it displays a list of the posts in the blog for the blog owner to select from, saving this as a widget setting.
In the widget display (provided by the widget object's widget() method), it displays some content linked to the post that was selected.
This seems to be bizarrely difficult behavior to replicate in a Google Gadget. The questions I wind up having are:
As far as I can tell, Blogger barely has a concept of an admin interface, and certainly none that would manage widgets. It seems like I need to deploy admin and user functionality through the same gadget display; am I correct about this?
I can get at a list of blog posts easily enough, but how in the world do I create a setting that's global to the widget instance instead of specific to the user viewing it? I get the vague impression that that may be possible through OpenSocial in some way, but damned if I can figure out how.
Have you already checked the links: https://developers.google.com/blogger/docs/gadgets/gadgets_for_blogger and https://developers.google.com/gadgets/docs/basic ?
They should have enough info for the item no 1.
Please note: With recent addition of dynamic views it seems like you need to hack stuff in order to make your gadget work when dynamic views are enabled (see this article). Perhaps they'll improve that in the future but the last blogger gadget announcement related to dynamic views was in feb 2012 dynamic-views-update-3-gadgets.
For the item no 2, I am not sure either. Maybe they'll add that in the future.
I'm new to wordpress. I have to create a one page template for my site and show a subscribe textbox on it with my own custom style. Later, I will use it to send monthly newsletters. What can be the simplest way to do that? I saw into some plugins like newsletter, subscribe2, but they are complicated and I don't know how to integrate them with my text box. They just provide some sort of widget to show on sidebar. Any tutorial or simple plugin? Please help!
You basically have three options:
a. Use a web-hosted syndication service as per the below. (Easiest to configure)
b. Install some sort of newsletter sending plugin for WordPress. (More control, but more configuration)
c. Use a web-hosted newsletter service like Constant Contact (Expensive and Ugh.).
Try using Feedburner with email subscriptions -- see: http://howtotechtips.blogspot.com/2008/05/create-feedburner-email-subscription.html. You sign up, supply your RSS feed's address, then copy-paste the resulting code where-ever in your template you like. Then, whenever you write a new post, your subscribers are sent an email.
Subscribe2 complicated?
You can do auto-download/install from the administration area, you literally only have to config a few options.

Maybe it's just me, but the screenshots certainly make the plugin appear to be very straight-forward.

If you are not heavy with subscription list. Then a good option can be using the MailChimp email subscription with its free option.
You can just install the plugin and place a function called mailchimpSF_signup_form() into your template's right place. And beautify it with your own CSS.
Or in Post or pages' HTML using the shortcode [mailchimpsf_form]
They also have widget to be added dynamically. How to use it?
Create a free account at MailChimp.
Create a list there.
Create an API key there
Go to your MailChimp options page http://yourwordpress.tld/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=mailchimpSF_options
Insert the API key there.
Select the list you want this subscription to be linked to.
There you are!
