Fixing Now-Reading’s Admin Menu

I like using Now-Reading to track what books I’m cur­rently read­ing, have read and want to read on my web­site. Unfor­tu­nately the plugin’s author has been too busy of late to update the plu­gin and one of the recent updates to Word­Press caused Now-Reading’s admin menu to break (when using the sin­gle menu option).

Now-Reading Tweaks

I use Rob Miller’s excel­lent Now-Reading plu­gin to track all the books I’ve read and am read­ing here at Cof­fee­Bear. After my recent site upgrade I decided to tweak the sin­gle book tem­plate for my library. I noticed that the lat­est ver­sion of Now-Reading allows you to note who read a given book on multiuser […]
