Project Dolphin Wordpress Plugin released
by Evil Overlord in Web Design/WP in the early evening on July 25th, 2005: 5 years ago

Hmm… looks like the dolphin.twistification.net site is dead. It’s mirrored at http://www.project-dolphin.nl/ but that site doesn’t allow this sort of scripting apparently… or at least, all of my stuff is broken.

Honestly, I don’t have time to try to fix it, so I’m just gonna note that it’s borked at the top. Sorry for the trouble.

Download Opera

This is my first attempt at any sort of coding, so please forgive me if it isn’t elegant.

Shortly, this plugin will retrieve and display stats from a Project Dolphin user account. No modifications to base WP code are needed.

Project Dolphin is a database of keystrokes. Users can download a very small program onto their computer which will then keep track of the number of keystrokes. The program is quite small and can be set to automatically load up at startup and pulse automatically or manually. Optionally, users can join a team and “compete” against other teams from around the globe. Currently, there are over 53,000 users. Registration is free.

Download the Wordpress Plugin Zip file

Tested with WP 1.5.x and WP 2.0.

I. INSTALLATION:

1. Find Project Dolphin userID number - you MUST be registered with Project Dolphin to use this plugin.

Go to http://dolphin.twistification.net/

Find your user page (easiest way is to search for your username - IE, my username is “tylerwillis” so I type that into the searchbox and then click on the result)

Your user page should have a box detailing what place you are in, and a listing of your recent pulses.

Once on your user page, look up at the address bar to see something like this: http://dolphin.twistification.net/profile.php?uid=2207

The number you want is at the end of ?uid=

In this case, the number is 2207 (IE, the number for tylerwillis).

2. Insert userID number into “dolphintwistification.php”

Open file with Wordpad.

Directly below the header information, you will find two lines like this:

// EDIT YOUR USER ID - find your number by looking up your username at dolphin

$uid = “2207″;

Replace the 2207 number with the number that you found at your profile page.

SAVE. Close file.

3. Drop file “dolphintwistification.php” into /wp-content/plugins/ folder.

4. Login to your wordpress dashboard, go to plugin management screen, activate.

II. USAGE (briefly):

4 functions are:

< ?php dolphinkeys(); ?>

< ?php dolphindate(); ?>

< ?php dolphinrank(); ?>

< ?php dolphinstats(); ?>

There is also a fifth function listed in the readme, but it would not fit on this posting space.

III. EXAMPLES (briefly):

Examples are listed in the included readme.txt.

This page will show you active examples of the code included in the readme.

Please feel free to leave questions. If you like the plugin, leave a comment/trackback.

    Hello,
    Just wondering if anyone could help. I did something stupid and started my blog using a numerical archive system, and now I'd like to change it so that the post title is part of the URL for SEO reasons. Is there any Wordpress plugins that anyone knows of that could switch it without sending Googlers to invalid pages? Maybe some sort of redirector to the correct page?

    Thanks.

    Camron,
    I know what you’re talking about, but I don’t know an answer to it. I think that eventually the numerical pages will get out of google’s system, but I’m not sure about that.

    Try asking at the wordpress forums or at the site of one of the main WP developers.
