Firefox and WordPress. Seems like these two fan favorites should mesh together as well as peanut butter and jelly, however – finding add-ons for Firefox to help you with your installed version of WordPress (or your WordPress.com blog) is not an easy task. So let me take the pain away this holiday season and share with you 10 awesome tools that will turn Firefox into WordPress’s little helper.
- Screen grab to WordPress! – This addons ads to Screen Grab! by allowing screen captures to be uploaded to Wordpress (2.5+) blogs
- One-Click Installer for WP – Install plugins or themes on your self-hosted WordPress blogs with a single click (needs the related WP plugin to work; not intended for Wordpress.com) .
- Wordpress.com Sidebar – Get quick access to your wordpress.com account from your browser sidebar.
- MMD WordPress.com Extension – This extension adds a tiny statusbar panel that shows you your blog hit count for your WordPress.com blog.
- Blog This in Windows Live Writer – Adds a button to Firefox which starts a new Windows Live Writer blog post prepopulated with content and title from the current web page. Blog the whole page, or just selected snippets.
- WordPress Helper – The Firefox extension WordPress Helper helps you working with Wordpress by providing useful help and tools.
- WordPress Post – This extension lets you post the text you select in your browser directly to your WordPress blog.
- easyComment-a-Blog – Filling out Blog Comment Forms automatically with ease.
- Deepest Sender – Deepest Sender is a client that will allow you to post to blogs from directly within Firefox. It is primarily a LiveJournal client, although it supports Blogger (GData) and WordPress (metaWeblog) too.
- DashBlog – lets you quickly collect videos, images, text/quotes, songs and screen-captures from any web page and publish them to your blog (word press, blogger/blogspot, tumblr) and/or twitter.
