The strange little box in the sidebar is now fixed.<\/p>\n

I’ve written my first WordPress plug-in.<\/p>\n

As you can tell, it generates a date in Shire Reckoning. I’ve done this before<\/a>, but as a BASIC program. Now I’ve rewritten the program in fairly simply .php code.<\/p>\n

Interested parties may download the plug-in here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

How does one call the plug-in? I inserted the following code into my sidebar.php file:
\n<?php shire_reckoning(); ?><\/code><\/p>\n

It can take two arguments\u2013’auto’ or ‘now. Now will give you the current date in Shire Reckoning. Auto can be used to replace the_date<\/code> function with shire_reckoning('auto')<\/code> in your WordPress loop if you want to have your blog\u2019s dates given in Hobbit terms.<\/p>\n
