News 5 Comments

Our WordPress plugin, upPrev, the New York Times-style jQuery-animated previous post flyout box, has been updated to version 1.4. Here are the major changes:

  • Fixed incorrectly shown number of WordPress posts (incorrect mysql query),
  • Resolved jQuery compatibility issue,
  • Improved stylesheet mechanism. One external global stylesheet + embedded one for a custom animation. Additional css selectors for easier modification.
  • Modified settings page,
  • Ability to add thumbnails and excerpt (lots of users requested this!),
  • Custom notification for pages with a shortcode [upprev]Sample Text[/upprev],
  • Disabled PHP errors notification for a javascript file.

Check it out on this page (by scrolling down) and then use the plugin update feature on your WordPress site or download a new copy from the WordPress repository!

WordPress Plugin – upPrev: NYTimes Style “Next Post” jQuery Animated Button

News 153 Comments

Our expert jQuery programmer, Grzegorz Krzyminski, has created a WordPress Plugin to emulate the “Next Post” buttons you see once you scroll to the bottom of New York Times web articles.


UpPrev has been updated to V1.4. There’s a boat-load of changes, so you should update accordingly. Subscribe to our RSS feed to learn when additional updates occur.


New York Times “Next Post” Animated Button Examples

Just like the NYTimes button, upPrev allows WordPress site admins to provide the same functionality for their readers. When a reader scrolls to the bottom of a single post, a button animates in the page’s bottom right corner, allowing the reader to select the next available post in the single post’s category (the category is also clickable to access an archive page). If no next post exists, no button is displayed.

The plugin’s only current option is choosing a fade-in or a fly-in animation.

It’s absolutely beautiful. I love Grzegorz’s work and I invite you to download the plugin in the WordPress repository.
