Amazon Product In a Post Plugin
Is used to to quickly add a formatted Amazon Product/Item to a post or page by using just the Amazon product ASIN (also known as the ISBN-10).

What can you use it for? With this plugin you can:

  • Add any Amazon product or item to an existing Post (or Page).
  • Monetize your blog posts with custom Amazon Product and add your own Reviews, descriptions or any other thing you would normally want to add to a post ? and still have the Amazon product there.
  • Easily add only the items that are right for your site.
  • Add the product to the TOP of the post content, the BOTTOM of the post content, or make the post content become part of the product layout

My Quicktags
This a basic quicktag addition for “two” quicktags that I needed for my plugin and then some. But anyway its a html encoder and an easier way to generate shortcode for my MP3 Player Plugin for Wordpress.

Final Thought

I hope you enjoyed this weeks plugins and that you maybe try a few out. I would like to know any feedback you have concerning these plugins.

Certainly some creative plugins in the list this week, the Yout Tube plugin is pretty sweet, all though I really don’t have a use for it.

I am really interested to see how “Reliable Twitter” outputs the twitter updates. The plugins which I tried earlier didn’t had much styling in which I am not too good to do it on my own. Crossing my fingers to see if “Reliable Twitter” is better than those I tried earlier.

Also, Amazon Product in a post would have been superb thing if it have been made automatic ;)

@Robin – I have the same thinking as you. I try and keep my plugins between 20-25, no more than that.
