Howard needs Wordpress/CSS/maybe Javascript help with Vlog interface design
August 24th, 2007

I need someone to do something that requires knowledge of Wordpress and (probably) CSS and (possibly) Javascript. I want to launch a Wordpress vlog that uses a different format than the usual vlog. I want to enter my info via Wordpress (I can use a different blogging app if it makes it easier to do this) and have the embedded player show up in the thought balloon and the explanatory text show up in the speech balloon, with thumbnails from the three most recent entries showing up in the boxes on the side. I’m paying for this myself, so I’ll need a bid that doesn’t put me into shock.

Expression Engine might be a better app for this, but a WP whiz should be able to do it.

My first thought was that you can place the vlog in a ‘thought balloon’ category with the text in a ’speech balloon’ category then use related posts plugin to tie them together in the archives. It’s not hard to show posts from select cats on any page of your choice. Someone with PHP programming experience might find a cleaner way to make it happen so you don’t have to double post.

Try connecting with Ben Bleikamp (Bleikamp.com). He did the custom WP design for ProBlogger.net.
