New version of Seth Godin WordPress plugin

Jump to Comments

Five months ago I created a WordPress plugin to implement a marketing principle taught by Seth Godin. He said good marketers “treat returning visitors differently than newbies”. The plugin has been one of the most popular features on my blog.

Today I upgraded the plugin to version 1.3, adding a feature that allows the welcome message to be displayed permanently if desired.

    If you’re a Seth Godin fan, you’d probably be interested to know that he is coming to town to promote his new book. Here are the details:

    Hi!
    This is a great plugin and I’m anxious to start using it!

    Quick question though - I have an “Asides” category which displays short posts in my sidebar. If I use this plugin, it sees those as posts just like the rest of my posts and puts the message above them - which of course comes out all wrong because it’s in the sidebar and the message was never meant to be there so it’s not formatted for the sidebar.

    I’ll have to look into how the “Asides” are looped a little more to figure out why it does this. However, a neat (as in simple for the user) fix for this would be if this plugin could exclude a category of posts to put the message on. Just a thought.

    Thanks again!
