The Holy Scripturizer

Hi, I’m petervcook, there were a couple of features I thought would make great additions to Scripturizer, so I contacted LO and asked if I could join the project to give the additions back to the WordPress community.

Scripturizer 1.8 was released today. The big new feature is rollover tooltips, your users can now see the ESV version of the verse just by rolling their mouse over the reference, no need to click. It also sports an easier installation process and streamlined admin interface.

Here is a full list of features:

• Added rollover tooltips
• ESV Show/Hide links can now be used even in the default translation links to another translation
• Show/Hide links changed from [+/-] to [show]
• Easier installation
• Streamlined code & smaller file size
• Redesigned Admin Panel to match WordPress 2.5
• CSS Code moved to an external file
• Added support for periods and endashes in the reference (ex. John 3.16–17)

This new version requires WordPress 2.1 in order to use all the features, while basic functionality will still work in WordPress 2.0.

Thanks to Chris
, who has his own great ESV WordPress plugin, the regular expressions in Scripturizer have received the first round of much needed updates. The latest code allows the Scripturizer to parse references that span multiple chapters, such as Genesis 2:1-4:5.

Thanks Chris for sharing your work!

I’ve been playing around with a new feature which allows users to reference the CCEL version of the Westminster Shorter Catechism, and I’d like to get some feedback.

If you are interested in trying out the new feature, download Scripturizer Dev 1.6 and use either of the following two reference formats in your posts:

• WSC 1; WSC 64; etc…
• Westminster Shorter Catechism 99

Let me know what you think . . . Like? Dislike? (O come on, I know there’s got to be some Presby bloggers out there!

Also let me know if you find any bugs.

Thanks to Dave for pointing out the bug in the Open New Window option. Download 1.5a for the fix.

The latest stable release of the Scripturizer WordPress plugin is Scripturizer 1.5, which is available in the download area.
