WordPress
WordPress is an open source blogging tool, that has been more broadly described as a "state-of-the-art publishing platform" and a content management system (cms).
Adding Microformats Support to WordPress
Become familiar with existing wordpress-support for microformats. Then:
Themes
There are themes available for WordPress that feature microformats support out of the box.
- Sandbox theme or any Sandbox-based theme derivative will include hAtom, hCard, and xoxo.
Plugins
Specific microformats can be integrated into the WordPress functionality through plugins.
- See plugins tagged microformats on the official WordPress plugin repository for a sampling.
- Blog Summary produces an hAtom-enabled list of recent entries via shortcode.
TinyMCE plugins
If you use the TinyMCE plugin, consider also installing the following:
- TinyMCE hCard - adds a [1] icon in your tinyMCE toolbar that provides a form for creating an hCard contact.
- TinyMCE hCalendar - adds a new [2] icon in your tinyMCE toolbar that provides a form for creating an hCalendar event.
