Default Your Best Wordpress Plugins

Since a good majority of us are using wordpress on at least one of our sites, I thought this would make for a good post. I just discovered a YouTube plugin that makes posting videos very simple, and it allows you to change the border colors and size with one click.

A couple other of my favorites are

Mobile/PDA Plugin:

I think Brandon's got most of mine already ... but here are a few more I find useful:

Akismet - Great at blocking spammy comments on your posts.

SEO Title Tag - Lets you define the title content for every blog post and category. Really helps with SEO if you can get it right.

Google Sitemaps - Essential as far as I'm concerned. Pretty much the first plugin (after the All in One SEO that I install!)

Related Posts - Lists a a few related posts.


Has anyone found a decent 'Playing Card Generator' for WP? I've messed around with a few but they have been pretty tempromental when it comes to displaying correctly.

Any thoughts appreciated though!

Yeah mate top thread. I had to ask around a bit to get the plugins I use. I'd be very interested to see what everybody else likes to use. Thanks for the input Brandon. I'm checking some of those out as we speak. Great value.

I'm not a guru at all with Wordpress, so there might be better options that do the same things, but here are a list of ones not already mentioned that I use some places:

Execute PHP - Allows USE of PHP code in posts, also allows divs and spans to be used etc which otherwise wordpress has a habbt of changing to paragraphs etc.

IP2Nation
- used in Geo Targeting both content and templates

Math Comment Spam Protection - I get TONS of spam on some sites so this with akimet combined elminates like 95% of it - still pleanty I need to go through from actually human spammers though.

Periods in Tilte - If you want to name "post Pages" .html or .php or event .wtf or anything else you can think of this does the trick allowing periods to be used in Page slugs.
