I’ve added two new checkbox plug-ins. ((I’ve also added a third plugin, which will mean more pingbacks will be registered, but it means I have to register “Alas” with Technorati. In order to do that, I need to put this link in a post temporarily: Technorati Profile<\/a>. Just ignore that link, please.))<\/p>\n

The first is a “subscribe to comments<\/a>” plug-in (I’ve had this one before, but it got dropped at some point and was never restored). This is one I’ve found useful when I’ve left comments on a blog that I don’t visit often.<\/p>\n

The second is the Comment Rules WordPress Plugin<\/a>, which Daran of “Feminist Critics” created by modifying an already-existing plugin. ((The already-existing plugin Daran modified was Comment Policy WordPress Plugin<\/a>, by George Notaras.)) Here’s a picture of the new plugin at work:<\/p>\n

Because this notice appears right by the comments box – rather than dozens of screenfuls of comments away, which is where the old notice appeared — I think this should limit or eliminate the problem of non-feminists forgetting about the rule in the longer threads. It’ll also take some burden off of the moderators to enforce the rule, since I think the checkbox requirement will make it more self-enforcing.<\/p>\n

Many thanks to Daran; especially considering his idealogical aversion (to put it mildly) to feminism, it was extremely generous of him to make this plugin at my request.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
