TextImage

TextImage 0.2 for Wordpress is ready for release, as soon as I write some updated documentation.

It uses the new to let you turn arbitrary blocks of text into images.

You could use it to hide specific from automated filters or robots, while keeping the rest of your post visible to search engines.

This is the first post with the new and extremely useful

Well, OK, it is still pretty basic. The only change is that everything between <textimage> and </textimage> gets turned into an image. It still uses the settings from the plugin options page, so all your images will look alike. Here’s another example:

These may change and there may be others. Please suggest your favorites.

Basic as it is, in my opinion this change makes the Textimage plugin far more potentially useful.

Note: if you’re editing your posts with the online Wordpress editor, you need to use the Code tab to insert the tags. If you see the tags like this:

<textimage>This is supposed to be an image but isn’t</textimage>

you have created your tags on the Visual tab. Go back and edit on the Code tab. The changes you need to make will be obvious.

Many thanks to David Tames for the comment that suggested this.
