Wordpress Cascading Drop Down Menu Manager

I managed to break free for 30 minutes and wrap up a small bug in the WordPress Menu Creator. As it stands we are at version 1.0.2 which is only a maintenance release to fix some issues when using widgets in conjunction with the menu manager.

Version 1.0.3 is actually the one I’m most eager to see production ready as we are adding in a jQuery feature that allows you to change the sort order of menu items by simply dragging the field to the position you desire. I’ll also add in a new feature where it can be used in WordPress MU sites allowing an administrator to deactivate the “DELETE” feature for menus. Several people have reported that when using our product with WordPress MU that some users delete their menu’s causing errors in the rendered template.

The WordPress Menu Creator will also be updated to take advantage of WordPress 2.7 and the automatic update feature now in beta. Chances are we will release the OpenRealty Guides and WordPress Guides at the same time since they share similar core code features for structure and the updates underway will be applied across each of those FREE products.

You can download WP Realty and WP Menu Creator in the WordPress extensions directory. WP Realty was transferred to the EZPro Realty project and WP Menu Creator was developed for The Brokers Edge. OR Menu Creator will also be a free product of The Brokers Edge.

Hammered by a few emails I wanted to drop in and just make a brief blog post about the status and pending feature in the newly released EZPro Realty fork. Its done! But not fully released as of yet and two key features are yet to be added which is happening as I understand right now.

I’d like to show you the EZPro Realty installation Interface in this video and I promised NOT to reveal the admin interface as of yet but its nice.

Here is the newly designed admin interface which follows pretty much the same path as the OpenRealty one but its dressed up a bit and a new step will be added for IDX type sites.

The osCommerce Templates - NOPE

Switching people from osCommerce to ZenCart

Hey I’ve had several people ask me why I dumped all the free templates I had over on template trader and the reason is I’m not doing osCommerce templates anymore in part because osCommerce is not the ideal shopping cart for today’s market. osCommerce was written at a time when PHP3 and PHP4 was still around quite heavily and search engine optimization was a buzzword among only very few web professionals. Because of this I’ve decided to support ZenCart.

ZenCart better handles the compliance issues with design and is much easier to build SEO friendly shopping carts. There are many open source shopping cart solutions but ZenCart seems to be one of the most actively supported. If you need custom, then contact me, otherwise it will be a while until I can publish the oscommerce templates for zencart.
