Free as in Time

I’ve got a client who’d like a guestbook for his WordPress site. In the world of WordPress, what this amounts to is creating a page called ‘Guestbook’, adding a bit of text to encourage people to comment on the page, and then enabling comments for the page. Presto! One guest book.

There can be a bit more to it, though. In putting this together, I came across these two pages. The first walks you through creating a template for the guestbook page and making some changes to closer mimic the guestbooks of old. The second is for a plugin which aims to automate those same steps.

Enjoy!
