Remove inline uploader from WordPress — a plugin

After installing WordPress 2.0, I found the inline uploader began to get on my nerves. I don’t use it, and I wanted rid of it. I was going to write a plugin to remove all the unnecessary crap that comes with WP 2.0, but I don’t understand the source code well enough to do it smoothly.

This plugin is super-basic, I mean it’s really, really simple, but it does what I want, so I’m pleased with it.

Current version: 1.0

To install it:

  1. Download the .txt file: beingmrkenny.co.uk/files/remove-inline-uploader.txt
  2. Change the file extension from .txt to .php
  3. Upload to your wp-content/plugins folder
  4. Activate it in the normal fashion

And that’s it. It’s a simple little fix, but there you go.

If you’re after something a bit more substantial, try Filosofo Old-Style Upload Plugin which restores the “Upload” page that was found in WordPress prior to version 2.0. I think his plugin and mine work quite well together ;)
