Blog-in-Blog allows you to use the WordPress platform for it’s CMS features, but still have a blog page on your site. Posts selected by category, post_type, tag or any combination thereof, can be used to feed the ‘special’ blog page, and can optionally be hidden from the home page. 
You can have more than one category hidden from the homepage (not post_types or tags).
You can also use this plugin to show posts on the same page from different categories, post_types or tags, but in several different blocks and using different layout templates.
If you find this plugin useful (especially if it gets you out of a fix in a commercial setting), please feel free to leave feedback via the donate button.
I am grateful for those people who have already bought me a beer 🙂
Important: In previous versions of the Blog-in-Blog plugin you might have edited bib_post_template.tpl. If you are upgrading, we will copy this to a textbox so you can edit the template from the plugin page. The bib_post_template.pl file is no longer used and may vanish in a future release.

Blog-in-Blog

As a whole, the new WordPress Admin panel is organized fairly well, however when it comes to editing posts or pages quickly without having to open each post or page in a new tab or window, it isn’t a very efficient process. For those who are using WordPress as a CMS, it’s important to be able to manage contents easily and quickly. That’s what this plugin helps to do.
It adds some icons to the posts/pages management panel with AJAX-driven CMS-known functions like toggling post/page visibility, changing publication date and title without having to open the edit screens or reload the page, plus changing page order with drag’n’drop, inline category management and inline tag management, plus much more.

<h4>Notes on changing page order via Drag’n’Drop</h4>
Since Version 1.0 it is possible to change page order via drag’n’drop. Currently it’s only possible to drag top level pages, that means only those pages with no parent pages. It is planned to make it possible for child pages, though.
