Re: WordPress Plugin - Italicize FIRST, dangit!
Ryan,

The plugin will only replace FIRST in all caps or F.I.R.S.T. (also in all caps). Any instance of "first" or "First" will be ignored.

Re: WordPress Plugin - Italicize FIRST, dangit!
Hello again,

Just thought I would pop in and post that I released 1.1 of this plugin... it applies the filter to the_excerpt too.

New download link: http://cl.ly/47GS

Old one is now obsolete.

-JD

Re: WordPress Plugin - Italicize FIRST, dangit!
Is it possible to put this on Github, or Google Code so people in the community can add more FIRST centric things as needed in Wordpress?

I'm not sure what kind of things are needed, but I'm sure someone can think of somethings.

Italics isn't used for the name of organizations. Who italicizes Coca Cola or McDonalds?

Re: WordPress Plugin - Italicize FIRST, dangit!
FIRST actually italicizes it on their own website, and somewhere there are guidelines on doing so as well

(look at this page: http://www.usfirst.org/aboutus/content.aspx?id=880 -- lots of italicization)

Edit: Top of page 18: http://www.usfirst.org/uploadedFiles..._MAR262010.pdf

Re: WordPress Plugin - Italicize FIRST, dangit!
@Boydean
Sorry, missed your post.

I would be happy to get this up on Google Code sometime soon. Maybe we could call it the "FIRST Essentials Pack for WordPress" or whatever... just some cool features geared towards FIRST team websites.

Maybe even throw an options page to disable features they don't want activated... sounds like a fun little project.

-JD

Re: WordPress Plugin - Italicize FIRST, dangit!
I am having some issues with images that have FIRST in the alt part of an img tag. Anyway to disable it from trying to "attack" images, haha?

Bump... How can I prevent the plugin from trying to add <em></em> tags within the alt portion of an img tag?

Re: WordPress Plugin - Italicize FIRST, dangit!
Great plugin!

I have one suggestion:

+ add logic to check to see if "FIRST" is inside a <tag> - don't italicize in that case
