I noticed a bid on RAC named Install WordPress Plugins – About 35 or less
, I just wonder if a WordPress Blog need so many plugins installed. and here is the requirement,

I have a wordpress 2.6 installation and would like to add many plugins. I’m looking for someone who can start working on this today or tonight, preferably with yahoo messenger or msn messenger. I will sign up for services as needed, when needed.

Some of these are redundant. That’s ok, because I’d like to experiment with them and see what I like the best. I’ll need advice if they are incompatible. I’d also appreciate advice if you can think of a better replacement for any of the plugins. Please also give advice if you believe a plugin is not needed. It’s very possible my comments are wrong because I’m misinformed – relying on old information, etc. Part of this job is giving me solid advice.

Please mention your experience with wordpress, and examples if you have them.

Here are the plugins I’d like installed, with the link, and notes below the link when needed. I’m trying to group things that seem related.

Please ask questions if you have them, and like I said, please be available to work on this very soon, and also let me know your experience with wordpress. Also, please confirm that you can use yahoo or msn messenger for communication.

I didn’t place a total for the bids, because I was thinking this might be right above or below $100 or so. I’m willing to pay more based on experience and speed and capabilities.

Here is the plugin list. Btw, the primary reason I want to use a chat program for communication is to keep things moving if possible. If you have a question or need me to sign up for a service for a plugin to work, I want to do that fast so we don’t hold up the installations here.

1.) WordPress Super Cache
We’d also like to speed it up / modify it with the following – http://www.askapache.com/htaccess/hacking-wp-super-cache-for-speed.html
————————————————

Ping Stuff
2a.) MaxBlogPress Ping Optimizer

2b.) PingPressFM
2c.) No Self Pings
3.) WordPress Automatic upgrade

I’d like to add this plugin, but do not want to upgrade wordpress at this time.
4.) WordPress Wassup Plugin
5.) Feed Footer WordPress Plugin

6.) WP Tags to Technorati
7.) Google XML Sitemap generator
8.) Meet your commenters
9a.) WP-EMail
9b.) CommentMailer
10a.) The Cross-Linker Plug-in for WordPress
10b.) RB Internal Links
I’m not sure if this one will conflict with the Cross-Linker plugin above. If it does, we probably want to keep the Cross-Linker.

Adsense Tools (view all before installing any)

11a.) MightyAdsense
This will also require the_excerpt_reloaded plugin so excerpts can be used. It can be found here – http://guff.szub.net/2005/02/26/the_excerpt-reloaded/ Here’s more info on that – linked from Mighty Adsense page as well – http://mightyhitter.com/mightyadsense-41-and-the_excerpt-reloaded.html There may already be a built in soluition, since this was posted back in 2006.
11b.) Adsense Deluxe
This may not work with the adsense plugin above. We might need to talk about which is better. If we can install both and test them by enabling one or the other, we’ll probably want to do that.
11c.) Easy AdSense

This one may be the most up to date adsense tool, and I appreciate that it enforces the 3 adsense block rule. Adsense will be the primary revenue for this site, so this is important. There will probably be an adsense block on the left sidebar as well, so it will be best if the rule is enforced that way. If not, maybe we can make the limit 2 blocks – knowing there will always be another in the sidebar.
12.) SourcedFrom
Content Tools
13.) BackType Connect Plugin
14.) WP-Sticky
15.) Broken Link Checker
16.) DoFollow Plugin
17.) PHP Code Widget
18.) Get Recent Comments
This will probably go in the left sidebar.
19.) SEO Super Comments
20.) All in One SEO Pack
21.) Embedded Video
22.) Insights
23.) Zemanta
24.) Follow Me Social Media WordPress Plugin
We want to put this in the sidebar on the lower left.
25.) SocioFluid
26.) OpenID
27.) WP-Gravatar
I have heard that gravatar support is built in for WP 2.6. Does the built in function do what this plugin does? If not, we want it.
28.) WP-Cumulus
29.) Mobile Plugin Needed, or we’ll use the method below.
Or maybe we can use this method – http://www.labnol.org/internet/design/how-to-create-mobile-phone-optimized-blog/2132/

I think it is a interesting requirement about PDF and ebook, so I quote it here,

Many computer users have thousands of digital photos (aka pictures, images) and so, they need a tool like ACDSee or IrfanView or XnView, this is, a Photo/Picture/Image quick/rapid viewer/browser/explorer <=> Rather than manually click on each picture to launch a new instance of a viewer (what would be thousands of loads), this tools allow an extremely rapid, easy and comfortable viewing, sparing a lot of clicks, time consumed, CPU/RAM loads.

My project is not about photos, it is about eBooks/eArticles… I have thousands and thousands of PDF, CHM, DJVU, RGO, PDB files, and I need to see them rapidly (to delete the junk, and store the good ones). Well, I cannot imagine myself loading on Adobe Reader 10000 times, nor Microsoft hh.exe (Windows CHM Viewer) nor WinDjView (DJVU Viewer) nor RepliGo nor iSilo… Thus, I need something like ACDSee/IrfanView/XnView but for PDF, CHM, DJVU, RGO, PDB; rather than photos (such as JPG, GIF, TIFF, BMP)…

My idea is NOT to build an app “from zero”/”from scratch”; my idea is to build an easy/simple app which acts as a “front-end”/”wrapper” to launch automatically instances of already-built viewers. So, I attach the portable versions of the viewers:

Foxit PDF Reader(as PDF viewer)
WinDjView (as DJVU viewer)
xCHM (as CHM viewer)
RepliGo Viewer (as RGO viewer)
iSilo (as PDB viewer)

It is bid on RAC, and if you have interesting, you can try it, Document File Viewer

I just finished a bid from RentAcoder, the title is “Web service (C#) to digitally sign PDF documents”, it is a private bid, the requirement is,

Buyer needs a C# web service that will digitally sign a PDF created using ITextSharp.

The PDF will be already created and would be updated with a digital signature by the new web service. The web service would take as parameters the name of the document and some user authentication information (user id and password). The web service would validate the user id/password and sign the document digitally with a self-signed certificate.

The signature that appears on the document will be either an image of a signature or a unique text field like Sergie.Norwinski.123456.

The web service will also return a numeric return code and return message indicating success or failure.

The web service should also add the success or failure status to a SQL Server 2005 database. The database already contains the stored procedures to authenticate user identity and log the status of the request; the new web service simply needs to execute them.

Buyer will provide the self-signed certificates that are to be used by the web service.

And the buyer said,

Steven was an absolute delight to work with. He was very timely with his deliverables and the code provided worked as intended and was easily integrated into an existing application.

He was extremely flexible, accomodating, resourceful and has a great sense of ingenuity and creativity. Great C# skills and exceptional PDF and iTextSharp knowledge.

The pitfall of this bid, need parser PDF and get the x and y coordinates from the special given text, for example, get the x and y coordinates of “Signature/Credentials:” and put the signature after it, get the x and y coordinates of “Date Signed:”, and put the date string after it, but by default, iTextSharp does not support it.
