Narwhal Microblog adds a minimal front-end posting form on any page with the shortcode, [narwhal]. It’s meant for short updates or microblogging.
The form submits without refreshing the page and then redirects to the post that was created. If you don’t quite like this behavior, check out the FAQs.
Unlike other front-end forms that have you type out the title, post content, and tags separately, this plugin takes an original approach by using a special format. Think of it like using markdown in a way (if you’re familiar with that). Once you commit the format to memory it makes posting updates even faster.
What you type into the textarea is:
(Title in parentheses) 
Content on a new line with any word #hashtagged.
Example:
(This is an amazing title) 
But, the #content is even better!
The above would create a post titled, “This is an amazing title,” with “content” as a tag.

This plugin integrates the <a href="http://terrifically.org" rel="nofollow ugc">Terrific concept</a> into WordPress and is based on <a href="https://github.com/rogerdudler/terrific-micro" rel="nofollow ugc">Roger Dudler’s Terrific micro</a>. 
Views as well as partials were removed from the integration, use WordPress functionality (templates/template parts) instead.
<h3>Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Create a new theme or add a structure to your active theme to be able to use Terrific micro in your project</li>
<li>Provides you the option to cache and minify the concatenated styles and scripts for production use</li>
<li>Provides an interface to create new modules and skins based on file templates</li>
<li>Inspect mode to get an overview of the modules on a page</li>
<li>Option to use WordPress’ own jQuery</li>
</ul>
<h3>Usage</h3>
You can render a module in your template files using the ‘module’-function, e.g.:
<pre><code><?php module('TeaserBox'); ?>
</code></pre>
You can provide more parameters to the function to control the output:
<pre><code>module(Module Name, Module Template Name (optional, default: null), Skin Name (optional, default: null), Additional Attributes (optional, default: array()))
</code></pre>
As this function is part of Terrific micro, you’ll find a more detailed description <a href="https://github.com/rogerdudler/terrific-micro" rel="nofollow ugc">on Github</a>.
You can flush the Terrific cache manually as well as start the inspect mode via the admin bar (see screenshot).
The plugin automatically includes WordPress’ own jQuery version as the first script file. You can disable this option in the admin page and include your own jQuery or Zepto version in the assets.json as usual.
There’s not much to know about the integration, I recommend you to let the plugin create a new theme to get an idea on how things could be done.
