Hi Bjorn! I pushed my edits to a github repository here: https://github.com/tarmot/wp-cc-plugin/tree/tarmo-mods

The plugin is still named according to the original License, so it will conflict with it and cannot be published on WP codex as it is. But you should be able to give it a go.

Hi Tarmo,

I'm a WordPress plugin developer myself and I'm willing to help out. For

instance with testing. Do you have your code somewhere online, like

Github or some other place where we can check it out and perhaps send

patches / pull requests?

grtz

Hi all,

I'm new to the list, but did check the archives back at least 2 years

and did not see any mention of this. So here goes:

There's a Wordpress plugin that is listed in the CC

wiki: http://wiki.creativecommons.org/WpLicense

However, WpLicense hasn't been updated since 2007. It's well done,

since it still works. However, it is very limited in its

behavior. Does anyone know if there's already people looking at

resuming development of that plugin?

What I've needed is a plugin that works for a multi-author blog, where

each author may have a separate license in use, and where certainly

the attribution generated in the CC license should reflect each post's

real author.

The best plugin I've found is License, which also is outdated and a

bit buggy: http://wordpress.org/plugins/license/

I've updated it myself to work better in non-US contexts and fixing

bugs. It allows for a default CC license for the blog, a default

license for each author, and post-specific licenses that override

those defaults. The widgets and short codes display correct

post-specific author names in the RDF and HTML.

I'm planning on publishing my fixed version of "License" to the

Wordpress codex. But I'm wondering what the best approach would be in

terms of WpLicense and what others are planning or wanting to do.
