 Coupon Creator
The Lowdown.
I had a client in need of offering a coupon that could be printed for her services. This simple plugin does just that. You create the coupon and the freemium version creates a nice simple ciupon of you want fancy get the pro version. Once created you can add it as a short code to the landing page after signing up foir an email list then it is also emails out for them to use from thier email or phone.

Meks Smart Author Widget
The Lowdown
Was hard to find a good plugin to display the author info and customize it a bit, this might be a great one for developers. I had to replace what we were using on the old wpplugins website and this is what I settled on to display the info about myself and Mracus. The biggest problem I faced was I wantd to only display our info consistantly across the website and most plugins wanted to cahnge the info on a perpost or page basis per autor. This turned out to be pretty nice.

WooCommerce PDF Invoices & Packing Slips

The Lowdown:
One of the strangest things about Woocommerce is the lack of a simple function such as printing invoices and packing slips. This plugin solves that in a great way by creating a PDF you can download or print. Simple yet effective andsolves a major issue.
Rating 5 Dragons.

John’s discussion this week about a project.
 
The launch of the new WPPLugins Ato Z website. This one was a challenge due to how I moved it from a stand alone wordpress to part of a WPMU website. It is the first Live component in the soon to be launched WPSupport.ca network of websites. The biggest challenge was getting everything moved over and finding replacement plugins for the ones that would not work in an MU environment.
 
So lets talk about the challenges of moving to MU and should you do it.
 
 

Plugins Overview:

John’s Plugins:  Coupon Creator – 4, Meks Smart Author Widget – 4, WooCommerce PDF Invoices & Packing Slips – 5
Marcus’ Plugins: Homepage Scheduler – 4, Simple BMI Widget – 3, SEO External Links – 4
