I've developed my own Wordpress theme and I wanted to give users the ability to subscribe to my blog.
I have the typical Post RSS and Comment RSS options that come with Wordpress under the META section of the sidebar, but I also wanted to give my readers an option to just input their email address and press a button to "subscribe".
I know this is possible since I've seen many many blogs that use this, and if needed I can list some here. But I'm not sure if this is a plugin or a widget or what-have-you.
If you know how to implement this functionality into a Wordpress theme please let me know.
Try this plugin:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/subscribe2/
When i wanna add a new functionality to my WP sites, i always start by googling plugins. I mean if the solution already exists, that means less work for me, right? ;)
There are enough newsletter plugins in the plugin directory. You shouldn't add such code into your theme; this is really a plugin job, and your users may choose another one than yours.
This plugin is very useful if you are using feedburner http://feedburner.google.com/ for feeds.
This will open a popup to your visitor for subscriber

You can try with https://wordpress.org/plugins/jetpack/ it's so helpful plugin for email subscription option on WordPress site.

I would like to know how to disable the Easy-Fancybox plugin from opening the images on a specific page. The images on the page below are instead using a filmstrip lightbox from a purchased plugin called 'Photo Gallery'. I require the Easy-Fancybox plugin elsewhere around the website though.

I'm running a self-hosted Wordpress site, and I'm about to change the homepage layout from a blog to a more magazine-type format.
I know that some users will prefer to still see the old format, and I'd like to offer this as an option - for visitors to be able to select a second index.php (for instance index-blog.php) as their default homepage for the site.
I assume cookies would allow this, but if that's not possible, perhaps logged-in users would have that ability?
I can't seem to find a plugin that would help with this, so I'd really appreciate any tips - as well as advice on how having 'two' homepages might affect SEO.
Thanks in advance!
You can do this programmatically see this link. You should also create a child theme for your main theme see the codex for how to do that.

You can’t use plugins in wp.com blogs. First check Appearance>Widgets for useful sidebar items. There’s a lot that can be done with Text widgets, which accept html (but no javascript or flash).

Most WordPress.com users won’t find a Plugins tab in your dashboard. We include and configure the plugins for you, so you don’t need to worry about them.
Hope this may help you!!!
I would like to know which WP plugin should I choose to allow every user who come to my page to add a post to my page form the frontend.
He just click on a button add a new post or something like that. Than a form appear and he inserts the title and uploads an image.
After that its published as a post.
Is there a solution like this available for WP?
Thanks in advance.
From what I know, there is no existing plugin doing it as you need. Even if it existed, I wouldn't recommend it's use for security reasons; it is hard to follow every uses and make sure visitors would post the way you want.
You are definitely better to code it by your own, and it's quite simple using the wp_insert_post function. This function will work anywhere you put it inside Wordpress (no need to build a plugin from scratch), so a simple form with validation would make it.
Hope it guides you on what you're looking for.
I would like to get some ideas what's the best way to implement/integrate a Email Subscription Form for a wordpress theme i'm building. The form I'm referring is similar to this (www.babyyu.com) and (smashingmagazine.com).
Thanks!
Have you checked out some of the existing plugins at http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ ? There are quite a few available that do what you are looking for.
I asked the same question here:
Adding email subscription to Wordpress theme
Maybe between the two of us we'll be able to get a proper answer.
#jswat: Could you please elaborate on the appropriate plugins to download. Yes we know Wordpress has a lot of available plugins and we know the site to find them. But I believe a better answer would be to list the plugins that would accomplish this functionality.
Thanks
