Addressbook Plugin

A simple address book plugin. View addresses in the admin back-end or embedded in a post or page.

A simple address book plugin.

You can view and edit addresses (names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, etc.) in the administration interface (under Manage > Addressbook or as its own top-level menu item), or embed a read-only list of addresses in posts and/or pages.

Addressbook features:

  • Gravatar support for both address lists;
  • hCard microformat support in the address list.

Still to come (hassle me if you want these now):

  • Import/export to a bunch of formats;
  • Firefox Operator addon scripts to export external addressed into Addressbook;
  • Pass various options to the <addressbook /> element, to sort and limit and whatnot;
  • Templates for the address list display;
  • Photo upload (probably over-ride the Gravatar, and show a note that there is a Gravatar?);
  • Custom fields;

Installation

Upload the addressbook directory to your /wp-content/plugins/ directory ;

Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress;

You can embed a list of your addresses in a blog post or page by putting <addressbook /> wherever you want the list to appear. The HTML generated by this conforms to the hCard microformat standard, which also means that you can fine-tune the appearance of the list via your theme’s stylesheet. The default presentation is pretty boring.

Upgrading

There is no need to de-activate and then re-activate Addressbook to upgrade.
