Thanks a ton Behrooz. The plugin is live on infonary.com as well. To see it in action just search for some common thing.

@Neo: Included your requested feature to strip links in the new version.
@Pranay: Check the new version, I included cURL to retrieve data, it’s faster and more reliable.
@Dheeraj: Update your plugin, new version includes the file caching.

Hi,

That is fine, I could help you in that as well.

If you share the stand alone version i could use it as it is.

Sorry for the late reply.
I normally do not give priority support for my open source scripts. The code needs a bit of adaptation to WP because I wrote it for the stand-alone version of the plugin. It may take a few days as I am very busy right now.

Actually i need the plugin badly

Where would I be able to download a copy of the version that uses file caching?

I have posts running into several thousands, so database caching is an issue. Infact, i had to disable the plugin as it had added around 4000 rows to the wp_options table.

Could you please share the file caching version.

Thanks. Yes, I have also developed a version that uses file caching. But I believe the data in transient cache is not that much as it expires as you set it, and the good part is that it uses WP’s way of dealing with data, so there’s no need for worrying about having spacial caching classes or write permissions on server folders, etc.

Hi,

Amazing plugin, however it is caching all entries into the wp_options table and hence bloating the database.

I am using it on http://www.infodugout.com. Is there a way to cache into some folder instread of the WP_OPTIONS table?

[...] WP-WikiBox allows you to get a Wikipedia article summary for a keyword in any language, inline with your posts and pages, with a simple shortcode. [...]

I think that your excerpts are not actually excerpts, they could be the first n words of your post or the before < -more-> part. WP generates code for shortcodes wherever he finds it, and Wikibox does not have an option now not to be included in the home page. My advice would be adding the wiki function to your single pages where you want it and send the keywords to it by custom fields.
