Social Bookmarks Features Request

The Social Bookmarks Bar was the first plug in that I created for WordPress. Since then, I have developed more plug ins (not yet available for download) and therefore my knowledge of the WordPress API has improved significantly.

I am planning a major revision of the plugin and I have my personal list of features but I would really welcome requests. I intentionally do not publish my current features list as I want to see from your request whether I am moving to the right direction.

Even if a feature has already been requested please post it again so that I can see how many people want it.

So fire away in the comments below!

Update: Version 3 of the plugin is now available. Thank you for your comments.

Hi Apostolos..

I’ll go ahead and post a message on my weblog directing my readers here also. There may be a few other bloogers that frequent my site, that are using your plugin. You may also want to leave a message in the Worpress plugin forum.

1. I would like the social bookmarks bar to only show-up on my posts, not on all of my other pages.

2. I personally like the plugin with the bookmark choices as you have it on this page, except that I would like to see Rojo replace My-Tuts.

3. I like having the 10-choice bar, but would also be happy with a 12-choice bar, with maybe a “Pluck-It” bookmark or “Squidoo” or “Raw Sugar”.

4. I think another user had a good suggestion about reducing the spaces between the bookmarks, making them closer together.

5. If possible, include a feature so each individual blog owner could pick and choose which bookmark to add when installing the plugin, and then have the ability to easily change them.

5. Of course, XHTML compliance would be nice, if easily possible.

6. Each bookmark would open in a new window, so you could continue to read posts, but have the easy option of cutting and pasting, without having to back click.

Just some thoughts. Thanks for allowing the feedback.

Mike

6. How ’bout this idea? Create a separate Social Bookmarks bar plugin for use only in the side bar. It would have all of the bookmarks available, with one click access, but could be sized smaller (just 6-8 across), but with 3-4 rows down.

I’d like to see;

a button for Google bookmarks, Rojo, Pluck, and remove mytuts as it points to another domain name now.

Could we have more Bookmarking sites please? And the ability to customize the list of sites would be great.
