2.5 beta 1 and AutoComic

So I’ve released a beta of 2.5 — don’t install it on a production server, all the usual beta warnings, etc. One feature that I’m excited about in 2.5, that I didn’t mention in the previous post, is called “AutoComic,” and I thought I’d take a moment to share a little information about it. One of the [...]

What I’m working on for 2.5

Hi, everyone. stripShow 2.5 is nearing completion, and I thought I’d update you on what I’m working on. These are some new features: The Add Comics page is going away. This is a part of my ongoing project to integrate more tightly with WordPress. Now, you can set comic options, upload comics, etc., from the Add [...]

Facebook compatibility

At the request of a user, I’ve been exploring ways to integrate stripShow with Facebook. Rather than reinvent the wheel, I think the best thing to do would be to see if I can integrate sS with one of the existing WP plugins that allows Facebook posting. I’m testing WordBook now.

RoleScoper

I’m having a lot of fun playing with a plugin called RoleScoper. This is pretty cool — it allows you to create your own WordPress roles and exercise fine-grained control over what users can do. It allows you to restrict content, for example. How might this affect webcomics creators? Well, let’s say you want to sell [...]

stripShow and WordPress MU

I’ve been curious recently about WordPress MU — a branch of WordPress that allows multiple blogs to be run from one installation. Seems to me like using stripShow with this software would be useful — you could be your own DrunkDuck or Keenspot, for instance. So I downloaded a copy of WordPress MU, and installed stripShow [...]

Gallery: Life’s a Witch

Zelda Johnson is just your average suburban hausfrau, struggling with parenting, dieting, housework, and all the problems of modern life. Except, of course, for the fact that Zelda is a practicing witch (complete with pointy hat and black robes) whose friends include fairies and werewolves. Life’s a Witch, a lighthearted look at fantasy characters integrating into [...]

About stripShow Sandbox Options

One feature I may have overlooked from the announcement of stripShow 2.1 is one some users may find confusing. I thought I’d mention it here for clarification. stripShow Sandbox now has an Options page. Here it is: Here, you can configure a few options for the stripShow Sandbox template, without having to edit your child theme’s files.  [...]

stripShow 2.1 released!

I’m inordinately pleased to announce the release of version 2.1 of stripShow, the all-in-one solution for running a webcomic on WordPress! New features in 2.1 include: COVER YOUR SHAME! If you happen to draw a comic that is sometimes just nasty, filthy, disgusting… well, we don’t judge. But sometimes people shouldn’t be browsing that sort of thing [...]

Old forum posts are back!

Because I’m a little obsessive about thoroughness, I spent the day (yes, the whole day) figuring out how to get all the old forum users and posts into the new forum. The good news is, it worked! Now all the old support issues and announcements are there for all to see. If you had an old [...]

New Forum

I have created a brand-new forum for stripShow support… well, OK, not totally new. All the posts and user accounts are still there. But now it’s located right here on this site. So if you have any support questions, feature requests, or other concerns, come in and post about it! Oh, and yeah, I know right [...]

    While I don't maintain stripShow for a living, I wouldn't say no to a little donation, if you think the plugin is worth it...
