Make Wordpress default to pages, not posts

For a few sites, I've used WordPress as a CMS, and if you're using lots of pages and few posts, the default menu arrangement is a little leftwards. So here's a simple plugin that makes WordPress default to creating Pages (not Posts) when clicking the "Write" menu, and list Pages (not Posts) when clicking the "Manage" menu.

That's all it does. Download it and use it: xb Pages Are Default

http://birdhouse.org/blog/2007/06/26/links-or-bookmarks/ there's a poll going on over at birdhouse.org on this very topic. my vote is cast with the above plugin, which does away with horrid "blogroll" and gives back nice traditional "links". mostly :)

Oops, I lied, that's not all

Oops, I lied, that's not all it does. It also changes "Manage Blogroll" to "Manage Links". Blogroll is a horrid term that should be long gone by the time you read this message.
