Today, I'm going to go over how to display code on your WordPress site using a Snipplr plugin and a snippet of your choice, I'll also be talking about some of the cooler features of Snipplr.

Wordpress Plugin: Are You Sure?

Wordpress Plugin: Are You Sure?

Today we are releasing a new and very simple Wordpress plugin we think you will all enjoy. The plugin is named Are You Sure? and it was created to prevent any accidental postings. If you have used Wordpress for any amount of time, I am sure you have accidentally pressed the 'Publish' button before you were ready to publish. Sure, you can go back and change it, but chances are your RSS readers and anyone browsing the site already have seen it. Are You Sure? uses some simple Javascript when the Publish button is clicked and confirms that you do indeed wish to publish the current content. Read on to download and for instructions.
