WP Plugins
Although I’ve been aware of its exisistence, I’ve never really perused the Wordpress Plugin Database to see what goodies are on offer. The only plugins I currently use are Akismet to stop comment spam and wp-cron/wp-cron-mail to permit posting by email.
If you have a Wordpress weblog, do you use any plugins and, if so, what are they?
Ooh, yes, oodles of them.
As well as Akismet, I use Footnotes, FlickrRSS, Markdown, SRG Clean Archives, Time Zone, WordPress Database Backup and three little specialist ones that I’ve written myself. Oh, and the Text Filter Suite for automatically labelling acronyms and converting to Pirate-speak on International Pirate Day.

The best anti-spam comment filter I’ve found is “Did You Pass Math?” at http://www.herod.net/dypm/ . Requires the commentor to do a simple addition problem (like 4+2) before submitting their comment. My spam instantly went down from something like 30-40 per day, to about 1-2 every few weeks.
