Features that are finalized right now for the next release of OneClick:
- Installation from ZIP file URI (this was a no brainer)
- Integration with wp-plugins.net db. I cannot integrate with wordpress.org’s db because there’s no XML file. There are other plugin databases available but they’re not extensive enough, and I don’t have too much free time. When I say integration I mean, you see the name, description, author, version, and a cute “Install” button which means you don’t even have to leave your dashboard to install stuff.
- Integration with themes.wordpress.net. See screenshots and install any one you like from right within your dashboard.
- And finally, the coup ‘de grace: A firefox extension to go with it. That’s right. Like a theme or a plugin you’re too anxious to try out? Right click on the zip file URL and with one click…
firefox plugin?!?!?! maybe you could talk to the creators of fireuploader. they could interegrate wordpress in it too! they already have facebook, myspace, picasa and flickr!
its not such a good idea to have another addon or to write it from scratch isnt it?
writing a simple firefox plugin isn’t too hard. In fact, the extension is quite simple. All it has to do is know the author’s blog site by default, and if he decides to do it on a zip file, [path to blog]/admin.php?ocaction=install&ocoption=plugin&ocpath= and then it’s a piece of cake.
it’s gonna be too simple to write
no as a user and addon hunter, am not interested in having a addon soley doing one job. when You CAN intergrate and thus increase popularity of a worth addon adding your nifty feature into fireuploader and thus getting popular yourself. why are going to write a seperate one?
the firefox extension doesen’t upload anything specific, it just calls a formatted url.
