In my previous post 5 Essential Plug-ins for WordPress I listed some pretty basic ones that I wouldn’t put a WP site live without.

This next round-up is a list of useful but not really essential plug-ins.

Many thanks to Grandad for suggesting most of these:

1. Subscribe To Comments by Mark Jaquith

Subscribe to Comments is a robust plugin that enables commenters to sign up for e-mail notification of subsequent entries.

2. WP Ajax Edit Comments by Ajay, ronalfy

WP Ajax Edit Comments  allows users and admins to edit comments on a post. Users can edit their own comments for a limited time, while admins can edit all comments.

3. WP Super Cache by Donncha O Caoimh

This plugin generates static html files from your dynamic WordPress blog. After a html file is generated your webserver will serve that file instead of processing the comparatively heavier and more expensive WordPress PHP scripts.

4. WP-SpamFree by Scott Allen

An extremely powerful WordPress anti-spam plugin that eliminates blog comment spam, including trackback and pingback spam.

5.  TinyMCE Advanced by Andrew Ozz

Enables advanced features and plugins in TinyMCE such as insert layers & tables (let’s face it, we still sometimes need tables!), add your own CSS  *.
