Changing Hosts Soon
May 16, 2008 – 10:43 amI am in process of moving all my Musterion.net files to a new webhost. If things look funky, just try again in a little bit. Hopefully the move will be fairly painless.
Coming back around?
May 15, 2008 – 10:58 amWell I may resurrect this site some. I had pulled out of blogging for a few months and recently made a return at my main site Seek the Holy. With a new version of WordPress out I played with it and instantly dislike it, so my main blog was resurrected using Movable Type. But I miss a few things about WordPress, not the least being my ESV plugin. So I may move back to WordPress. This blog would turn into a general tech blog, probably just containing posts about the plugins.
On the plugin, it appears to partly work with WordPress 2.5.1. I need to do some fixes so that it can work for those wanting to make the changes happen when saving a post. Other than that, it and Tippy appear to work fine.
If you want to try something else out, however, the Logos folks have written RefTagger for use with any website. They have a WordPress plugin available but because of the way RefTagger works no plugin is required, just a tweak to your page heading.
New WordPress ESV and Tippy Plugins
December 8, 2007 – 12:10 pmAnnouncing WordPress ESV Plugin 3.2.1 and Tippy 2.0.1. Both updates contain minor bug fixes. There was a problem with IE users that the tooltip set to display on hover would fail to display. I try not to growl at Microsoft too much, but the problem was with IE failing to recognize valid CSS and Javascript. The change should work now, at least with IE 7. Any IE 6 users out there, please let me know if it fails to work.
There were a couple of other minor glitches that were my own fault.
I’ve had one report of a strange problem that I haven’t yet been able to track down. One user reported that when he installed the plugin he no longer had access to his admin tools. I have not been able to duplicate the issue. Has anyone else had the problem? Please let me know what version of WordPress you have installed, whether you installed both Tippy and the ESV Plugin, and what web browser/browser version you were using. Thanks!
Edit:
I’m sure you all can find them, but I forgot to link to the plugin pages:

Announcing WordPress Bibleref Plugin 1.0
June 21, 2007 – 9:31 amI’ve released the first version of my Bibleref plugin. From the plugin page:
The Bibleref plugin will search your posts for any Scripture references and will wrap them in <cite> tags with the intent that this will make it easier for web search engines to find Scripture references being discussed in your blog.
This kind of modification is called microformatting. A discussion on Scripture reference microformatting can be found at The Semantic Bible.
At this time, the plugin will only look for references not already wrapped in tags. If you manually link your Bible passages to something like the Bible gateway, the plugin will not cite those references. In the future I will consider modifying the plugin to automatically handle references within links.
Download and get more information at the Bibleref plugin page.
