Introducing Moopost ver .8
Since I’ve been having so much fun integrating moo.fx into wordpress I thought how much fun it would be to integrate it into posts.

Due to so many different ways of constructing a theme it took a bit of work to get going but in the end I think it’s a quick handy little plugin that works straight out of the box with no errors.

Anyways to install this plugin all you need to do is upload the moopost folder into your plugins folder and then activate it. It should work flawlessly. If it doesn’t it’s mostlike the way your theme formats the post title. If you take a look at the index.php file inside your theme folder you want the_permalink to be called first in the post for this to work the best.

Also since this includes an image (which due to not being set for a specific theme isn’t the best image but I like it. It is however a png using alpha transparency so it will look great in firefox, safari, and IE 7 but will look terrible in IE 6 and earlier. Anyhow if you want to change it there is also an included gif file but that image isn’t really suitable for production usage. Feel free to make your own image and replace it.

The plugin has been tested with both the standard 2 themes included with wordpress (default and classic). As I install new themes I’ll check and update with bug fixes. In the mean time feel free to let me know if you have any errors or questions.

Make sure to use the theme switcher on the sidebar to see it switch between the themes and still work perfectly :D

    Chris,

    I’m having issues using this post and other moo.fx scripts in it. i.e. I have an accordion effect on my “skills” page and lightbox on my “portfolio” page, but they are rendered useless with Moopost. Have any idea, b/c this is a good plugin?

    You should be able to alter the css to display a different icon to the stretch div when stretched is visible.
    I had intended to add that in to the released version but didn’t have a chance to at the time.
