I’ve been heavily involved with WordPress for a couple years now and it has been fun to watch WordPress grow in popularity. Blogs have started to devote more time to covering WordPress and new blogs specifically focused on WordPress have been sprouting up everywhere. As a result, there is a lot of great work being produced. Here are a few WordPress posts that I really enjoyed:

• Top 10 WordPress CMS Plugins - I wouldn’t be surprised to start seeing more WordPress plugins designed specifically for CMS functionality.
• 63 Essential WordPress Hacks, Tutorials, Help Files, and Cheats - This site was lucky enough to have several posts featured here and there is a bunch of other great works here to look through.
• WPDesigner explains how to style individual posts using the post ID. This is an older post, but one I just discovered and I think it goes a long way towards showing you how to style individual posts. This is a great method to improve specific posts that are important to your blog such as an eBook you released, a download page of some sort, etc.
• Sizlopedia explains how to easily post using the WordPress Bookmarklet. I would guess most people are aware of the bookmarklet, but may not know how to put it to use.
• Another classic post by WPDesigner, this one explains How to Display a WordPress Login Form In Your Sidebar. I’m not sure how many people want to do this, but I suppose for a blog with several regular authors this could be useful towards the bottom of your sidebar where it wouldn’t bother your readers.
• Performancing provides a WordPress hack explaining how to build a photo or movie gallery.   This is something I’ve never really had an interest in doing, but some of you might have.
• Miriam at WordPress Garage explains how to make the WordPress editor stop changing your code.  It has never really bothered me, but I see a lot of people complaining about the code formatting that happens automatically.
