Scrippets 1.0

September 8, 2008 News, Scrippets

There’s now an official Scrippets plug-in for WordPress, available [here](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-scrippets/).

It’s been working well in the test sites we’ve seeded it to, but if any issues come up in its wider release, plug-in creator Nima Yousefi will be able to send out one-click upgrades. ((WP’s ability to keep plug-ins current is an underheralded godsend.)) So if you’re running a WordPress blog, by all means check it out.

There’s also now an official site at [Scrippets.org](http://scrippets.org), with forums for reporting bugs and tracking progress on other incarnations of Scrippets. Nima’s already whipped up a plug-in for bbPress, and Matt2000 has a version for Drupal in development. If you’re a coder with experience in one of the other blogging/forum platforms, consider this your call to adventure. ((You’ll definitely want to check out Nima’s scrippetize function, which does all the text transmogrifications through arcane-but-universal regular expressions.))

This site uses a Live Comment Preview plug-in that has been hacked to approximate the final scrippet formatting. We’re checking with the original plug-in author to get his okay to distribute a scrippet-friendly version. A similar JavaScript-based solution may be the best option for sites like Blogger that don’t allow traditional plug-ins. Stay tuned.
