Steps are really not that difficult to follow but there are some that are more knowledgeable when it comes to these that’s why they add more ways to make those plug ins work faster than the usual.

A very good set of precautions to take, not just on Wordpress but any platform with a varied ecosystem (yes, I'm looking at you, Magento. And you, Textpattern...) .-= Chris´s last blog ..Hello world! =-.

Nick, they used to have one … but they had some issues with hackers wiping them out and last I checked blog was still not restored. Once they get back into action, you should find plugin on their blog.

Hi Alex,

I discovered your blog this morning on Bloggingzoom.com. I have since been clicking through the site and finding wonderful information and lots to think about.

I started building by blog 2 years ago and wish I had the knowledge I have now.

As for plug-ins, I don’t install any that I haven’t read about in a blog like yours and seen pros and cons. I’m not very tech savvy so I use caution to avoid trouble spots. Most plug-ins I’ve installed successfully, and I always get a thrill when the plugs install properly.

I am looking for a simple easy to install plug-in for social networks. I don’t like installing into the blog template since I wouldn’t know how to fix any problems,
is there one that works like the bloggingzoom plug-in?

Love your blog.

Nick

Alex,

Through this post you have open eye to new way of testing plugins.

Thanks.

Most often I trust the plugin author that he knows what he is doing. And if a bug slipped in, for sure there will be a fix. James's last blog post..Laure Manaudou Naked Pics And Video

@ Marisa – you are correct.

@Krishnan – well in my opinion plugins are a necessary evil or a blessing, depends on how you look at it. I Like them because they greatly extend functionality but I also install many to try and then remove …

I’m not much of a plug-in guy, but I do have a few plug-ins in my blog which I think are necessary. Before I install a plug-in, I ask myself this question – is it really essential for my blog? If the answer is yes, i try it out. Fortunately, so far I haven’t had any problems but for the one created by bad behavior, which you helped out.

“it is your blog and when something is broken – it is up to you to fix it ” – Tell me about it. )

WP is releasing its 2.4 version on January 2008, or so I’ve heard.
I am using 2.3.1

Backing up your database is certainly an essential prerequisite before upgrading! Better safe than sorry.
