<p>Media2Layout facilitates the dynamic inclusion of media library artwork into predefined places in your site’s theme.  It creates named positions (by default “campaign” and “header”) which can be assigned a media item per each Page.</p>
<ul>
<li>Adds an admin menu item under Themes to edit your Position names</li>
<li>Adds a dropdown control when editing Pages to select the images for each Position in that Page</li>
</ul>
<p>To insert the images into your theme, just add a bit of PHP code to your theme in the appropriate spot, for example:</p>
<pre><code><?php Media2Layout::banner('foo');?> </code></pre>
<p>For the position named “foo” this would print an  tag for the media assigned to the Foo position of the current page (or print nothing if no media is assigned to that position).  Currently it wraps the  in a</p>
<p><</p>
<p>div> with class “media2layout_[position-name]”.</p>

<p>Cornerstone makes WordPress practical for <strong>any type of site</strong> by enhancing its content management capabilities.  Too long have we had to resort to hacks like using categories in menus to build a pseudo site structure (you know what I’m talking about).</p>
<p>Cornerstone enhances your WordPress site in several ways.  One of the most useful features is one that allows WordPress to be used for sites that go beyond just blogging– <strong>Posts in Sections</strong>.  Create a section, add posts to it, they show up when visitors navigate to that section.  Simple as that.  It really is, but because you’re awesome <a href="http://archetyped.com/know/how-to-organize-posts-in-sections-in-wordpress-with-cornerstone/" rel="nofollow ugc">here’s a tutorial on how to do it</a>.</p>

Cornerstone

I found the idea of this plugin quite useful so I was tempted to give a five star rating. But the permalink function is not fully configurable and does not work without trailing slashes which in some cases might be wanted. 
Since I found that a central part of the task the plugin should be used for is not functional I only gave it a 3 stars rating.



Does its job but breaks permalinks
