After upgrading WordPress from version 2.0.5 to 2.3.3, I did some experimenting with the “post autosave” feature. The autosave feature uses some crafty ajax to automagically save your post every 2 minutes (120 seconds by default). Below the post-editing field, you will notice a line of text that displays the time of the most recent autosave, similar to the following:

How to change the time-interval for the WordPress Autosave feature While experimenting with the autosave feature for this post, I discovered how easy it is to change the default autosave time interval. In WordPress 2.3 (and probably 2.2 and 2.1), open the wp-includes/script-loader.php and edit the instance of 120 (seconds) to something more appropriate. Don’t get too crazy though, or you might get a nasty email from your host. Here is how the interval-setting code appears on line #43: 'autosaveInterval' => apply_filters('autosave_interval', '120'),

Theme Integration st_related_posts(); : Display an list of related posts (must be placed in WP Loop) st_tag_cloud(); : Display a color (dynamic) tags cloud. st_the_tags(); : Display current tags post. st_meta_keywords(); : Display meta keywords, generated from tags. Use only on your header blog. st_related_tags(); : Display an list of related tags, useful for tags navigation st_remove_related_tags(); : Display the list of remove related tags from current view, useful for tags navigation

Related Posts : st_related_posts() With this functionnality, you can show related posts on your post. Is related posts which have at least one common tag. If you don't wish to show related posts, but use them inside the loop, use st_get_related_posts() function. Usage: <?php st_related_posts(); ?> Default Usage:

Tags cloud: st_tag_cloud() With this functionnality you can show a color tags cloud created dynamically. If you don't want to show it, but use it, use st_get_tag_cloud() function. Usage: <?php st_tag_cloud(); ?> Default Usage:

Yesterday had a quick look at podPress, the premier plugin for podcasting. It has a small incompatibility with the new Post Revisions feature introduced in WordPress 2.6. PodPress seems to be in the middle of a large update. I’ve used the “experimental” version (8.9) of the plugin and emailed the proposed fix to the authors, however for the more impatient here is the patch: view plaincopy to clipboardprintfunction post_edit($post_id) {      GLOBAL $post;      if($this->justposted) {          return;      }      $this->justposted = true;        if ( isset($_POST['post_ID']) && (int) $_POST['post_ID'] )          $post_id = (int) $_POST['post_ID'];        $this->settings_item_save($post_id, $_POST);  }   function post_edit($post_id) { GLOBAL $post; if($this->justposted) { return; } $this->justposted = true; if ( isset($_POST['post_ID']) && (int) $_POST['post_ID'] ) $post_id = (int) $_POST['post_ID']; $this->settings_item_save($post_id, $_POST); } It goes in podpress/podpress_admin_class.php, around line 51. What it does is to make sure the custom post meta fields used by podPress are attached to the actual Post, not one of the revisions.

I finally patched core program post_new.php to disable autosave for a “new” post and the problem went away. Do not know if this will help you or not. My patch for v.2.3.1 follows. Newer versions might be around the same location. Edit the file wp-admin/post_new.php WP v2.3.1 and insert “//” (without the quotes) at the beginning of this line (currently line 8): wp_enqueue_script('autosave'); Save and upload the file post_new.php, and the WordPress autosave features is now disable.
