The ArchivePress plugin is now a reality:  we have just released a new Version that is working quite good.

It is still a Beta Version, but there are really only few minor bugs and the Admin Area has been completely redesigned and developed using the “WordPress style”: in this way the use of ArchivePress is now really intuitive and easy to learn.

If  you want to know more about the ArchivePress core, please  read this post or the Project Documentation,  because today I would like to properly introduce the ArchivePress Admin Area:

  • The Menus
    • The Main Menu

This is the ArchivePress main menu:  it allows you to access to the plugin Adim Pages.

    • The Favorite Menu

We have also added  some shortcuts to make things fast!

  • The Dashboard

As you can see there are TWO dashboard Widgets: the first one is  a Summury about the plugin status; the second one shows the Plugin Logs.

  • Add/Edit pages

This is an example of an “Add/Edit” page. As you can see to make things faster and easier you have to fill just 2-3 fields and the plugin will fill the others for you. Anyway if you would like to change some settings you can simply open the “Advanced Settings” area and tune your Feed as you prefer!

  • Show pages

And finally and example of a page the shows Post Feeds (or Comment Feed, or Authors or Logs,…). These pages have been developed to seems part of the WordPress Core: a part for the graphics in fact, you can discover

  • The Page Info, which contains usefull information about the current Page
  • The filters and the Search fields, which allow you to find the content you are looking for
  • The Bulk Actions and the Line Actions, which are one of the most powerfull thing of the WordPress Admin Area

Still reading??? Go and Downaload the new ArchivePress Plugin Version and let us know how is working!

  1. I was still reading, great stuff– however, the download link to Google Code is 404- better would be link to the Google code download area than a specific file

  2. I love the conception of this pluign, and quite franly I can instantly see a variety of uses for faculty and students archiving the work they are doing on the blogging platform we are using (umwblogs.org). I really dig the browse authors, tags, posts, etc. feature.

    I installed it on two separate WPMu 2.9,2 installation and tried to run it fro there but continually get DOM errors. I attached the screenshot of the error. Is this plugin compatible with WPMu? I could see why you might be avoiding it given the merge, but I also don;t know if anyone esle has it running there.

    Here is the link to the error reports I am getting on UMW Blogs:
