Just a simple project that prints random quotes anywhere on a wordpress page. Essentially it is just a custom post type that includes the quote and the author. A single function call returns the random quote which can then be displayed wherever you like on your pages.
To use the plugin just add the quotes using the WordPress admin interface on your site. Then to get the quotes to display on the site, call quote_dispaly_random() to display a default styling or the quote_random() function which will return an associative array with both the content, author and date in it. For more details see <a href="http://www.jasonernst.com/projects/quotes/" rel="nofollow ugc">www.jasonernst.com/projects/quotes/</a> for more details.
Update: As of version 1.05 it is also possible to use the widget system to display a random quote. You can style the quote by creating css for the “quote” class.
The reason why this format was chosen, was to create the most flexibility for use in a template. It is easy to stick these inside of a div or apply css styling to it.

This plugin easily outputs an advent calendar for your chosen year (e.g. 2013). 
In the current version one entry consits of a title and a featured image, that’s all!
Therefore the plugin provides the following functionality:
<ul>
<li>A custom post type called “Advent calendar entry”</li>
<li>A bulk creation utility to create 24 Advent calendar entries with one click. Each one is automatically scheduled 
for 1. – 24.12.</li>
<li>A shortcode which outputs an Advent calendar overview. You can use it with [advent-calendar year=”xxxx”], i.e 
for 2013 it would be [advent-calendar year=”2013″]</li>
<li>As long as an Advent calendar entry is not published the entry will not be clickable in the Advent calendar overview. 
After automatically publishing (make sure your WordPress virtual cron is running probapbly) the entry will be clickable 
and viewable.</li>
</ul>
Fits perfect for any website to release exclusive picture content on the 24 days before christmas.
