A month ago today, I made my first plugin available to the general public: Alt Link Text. This was a simple plugin that made it easy to link to Pages in navigation menus using link text different to the page title.
User feedback has been very good, but it turns out that there are lots of similar things that people would love the plugin to do as well. Suggestions for extra features include making link title attributes editable, providing a way of excluding links from page menus, and making it easy to add rel=”nofollow” to links, etc.
These are all great ideas, so I’ve added them to the plugin.
Now that the plugin does much more than let you specify alternative text for your links, the name “Alt Link Text” doesn’t quite seem to cover it. What the plugin now does is add a range of options to the dashboard that make Page lists configurable. So future releases of the plugin will be called “Page Lists Plus”.
You can download Page Lists Plus for testing now.
