WordPress plugin review: The Holy Scripturizer 1.8.3

The Holy Scripturizer 1.8.3 automatically creates links to Bible verses, and a lot more. I prefer this program to a similar program, WP-Bible 1.7.10

WordPress Plugin Review: WP-Bible 1.7.10

WP-Bible 1.7.10 is easy to set up and performs exactly as advertised.

WP-Bible 1.7.10
Author: Matej Nastran
Plugin websiter: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-bible/
This plugin finds Bible references in your posts and pops up a box with the actual text from the Bible. You can choose any of 38 different translations in 14 languages that are available at BIBLIJA.net. This plugin performs exactly as advertised and works as if by magic. Most users of this plugin will be thrilled with it. On my website, however, I found the program to be rather too much of a good thing. Specifically, I use a lot of Bible citations in the text of my posts. So as I navigate the page with my mouse, I tend to detonate those text boxes right and left. The result is rather cluttered. I wish I had the option of clicking, rather than mousing over, the citation in order to pull up the Bible verses. Again, this shouldn’t seriously detract from a good plugin that performs amazingly the task for which it was designed.

My rating (out of 5 stars): ★★★★★

wordpress logoWordPress is blogging1 software designed to be flexible and expandable. K_Line Christian Online is an example of a WordPress blog.

Background

ibm pc xtAd hoc and hack: Before blogging software, I designed my websites the old fashioned way. Each page was created by hand, using various programs to assist in writing the HTML code. The result was crude. Adequate in it’s day, but laughable by today’s standards. Occasionally you still run across a web site of this ilk. Not pretty! The problem with adding content in this kind of system, is that there is no system. Each change to the website necessitates jamming something new in the mix. It’s not easy to sort or organize. The more content you have, the messier the whole site tends to get.
