Hi, I am currently working on my website (amongst a gazillion other things going on), and am wondering what plugins everyone is currently using and implementing on their sites.
I know this was covered a couple of years ago, but thought it could be time to start another thread.
Heres my list.
Akismet - Used by millions, Akismet is quite possibly the best way in the world to protect your blog from comment and trackback spam. (Just started playing with this)
All In One SEO Pack - Out-of-the-box SEO for your WordPress blog. Options configuration panel
Blog in Blog - Create a blog within a blog using a category, post_type or tag. This plugin basically shows selected posts on a page using shortcodes.
Collision Testimonials - With this plugin you can easily add, edit, and delete client testimonials for your website. Your users can submit testimonials and with your approval they will instantly be displayed on your website.
Download Manager - Manage, track and control file download from your wordpress site
Easy Table - Create table in post, page, or widget in easy way.
Email newsletter - Sometimes you want an easy way to e-mail all the people who registered, commented on the website, now it's as easy as installing this plug-in.
Google Analytics for WordPress - This plugin makes it simple to add Google Analytics to your WordPress blog, adding lots of features, eg. custom variables and automatic clickout and download tracking.
Grunion Contact Form - Add a contact form to any post, page or text widget. Emails will be sent to the post's author by default, or any email address you choose.
Jetpack by WordPress.com - Bring the power of the WordPress.com cloud to your self-hosted WordPress. Jetpack enables you to connect your blog to a WordPress.com account to use the powerful features normally only available to WordPress.com users.
Lazy SEO - The Lazy SEO plugin will help automatically optimize a site for SEO best practices using a specific set of keywords and locations. (Just started to play with this one)
Newsletter - Newsletter is a cool plugin to create your own subscriber list, to send newsletters, to build your business.
Provide Support Live Chat - This plugin allows adding Provide Support Live Chat button or text link to your website. It can be added as a widget to your website sidebar, or placed to a fixed position on your browser window, or added directly to your posts or pages with help of shortcode.
SI CAPTCHA Anti-Spam - Adds CAPTCHA anti-spam methods to WordPress forms for comments, registration, lost password, login, or all. This prevents spam from automated bots. WP, WPMU, and BuddyPress compatible.
Simple contact form - Simple contact form plug-in provides a simple Ajax based contact form on your wordpress website side bar. User entered details are stored into database and at the same time admin will get email notification regarding the new entry.
SK Testimonials - Testimonials plugin that uses the core WordPress functionality to store and display plugins, loosely based on the feature set of the unsupported ltw_testimonials plugin.
WordPress SEO - The first true all-in-one SEO solution for WordPress, including on-page content analysis, XML sitemaps and much more.
WP-Table Reloaded - This plugin allows you to create and easily manage tables in the admin-area of WordPress. A comfortable backend allows an easy manipulation of table data. You can then include the tables into your posts, on your pages or in text widgets by using a shortcode or a template tag function. Tables can be imported and exported from/to CSV, XML and HTML.
So what else do you use? Also are there any good widgets people could recommend?
