Useful Plugins

YellowPencil is probably the easiest way to style your WilCity directory. If you need to change the color of a button, the font style of the footer, the padding of an element or anything else that you would usually do through a CSS code, you can do it 100% visualy with this plugin, without losing time trying to identify the CSS name with the browser inspector, and without any coding.

A file manager for WordPress Media Library. It allows you to organize all your images into folders, which makes it much more easy to locate any image in the future. You can create folders for example like: Blog, Listings, Events, Directory Structure, etc.

Sometimes we need to replace images in our directory. In the usual process, we upload the new image, edit the page where it belongs to replace it and finally delete the old file. With this plugin, we get a new option in Media Library called “Replace Media”. With this option, we just choose the new file, that automatically replaces the old one and updates all the pages where it appears. We can choose to keep the old file name or change it to a new one and, also very important, we can replace images uploaded by other users while keeping it’s author (very usefull, when you need to replace the large files your users uploaded to their listings for smaller versions).

When your users submit their listings, sometimes they also submit very large images, images in the wrong format, etc. Sound familiar? So, sometimes you need to download all the images a user submits, in order that you can correct them and upload them again. In the WordPress native Media Library, it’s only possible to download 1 image at a time. With this plugin, you can select multiple images and download them all at once (the plugin generates a ZIP file with all the images you need).

This plugin allows you to switch to another user in order to see their dashboard, messages, etc.
