Show image as background to text. You can't really calculate the width
reliably in JS because margins are not taken into account by any of
clientWidth, offsetWidth or scrollWidth, so we don't force a minimum
width if the user is using shrink to fit.
This results in a margin-width's worth of pixels being cropped. If the
user is not using shrink to fit then we expand the header.

I recommend you check out <a href="http://wpmu.org/things_to_remove_from_wordpress/">Part 1</a> and <a href="http://wpmu.org/4-things-you-should-remove-from-wordpress/">Part 2</a>.</strong> </p><div style="width:610px"><a rel="lightbox[65881]" title="Another 5 Things Your WordPress Site Doesn't Need" href="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Simplify-WordPress-Remove-Junk.jpg"><img width="600" alt="Things you should remove from your WordPress site" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Simplify-WordPress-Remove-Junk.jpg" height="400"></a><p>You should remove as much junk as possible from your WordPress site</p></div> <p>The last couple of articles on this subject garnered plenty of interesting responses and suggestions from our readers, which I thought warranted a third post in the series. </p><p>So here we go with yet another 5 things that you can remove from WordPress, all in the name of making your site faster, simpler and more secure. </p><h2>1. Your WordPress version number</h2> <p>This is a handy WordPress security tip, procured from our very own Mason James. <sub><em>(Thanks for doing my work for me)</em></sub> </p><blockquote><p>Having your WordPress version number output by the wp_generator() function could have a negative impact on your site's security. </p><p>Making your WordPress version number available (as it is by default) can make it easier for hackers to use a known weakness in that version. The easiest way to get rid of this is to add the following to your theme's function.php:</p></blockquote> <pre>remove_action('wp_head', 'wp_generator');</pre> <h2>2. Zip files from theme and plugin uploads</h2> <p><a rel="lightbox[65881]" title="Another 5 Things Your WordPress Site Doesn't Need" href="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Clean-WordPress-Remove-Unnecessary-Things.jpg"><img width="300" alt="Make your WordPress site cleaner and simpler" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Clean-WordPress-Remove-Unnecessary-Things-300x215.jpg" height="215"></a>If you upload themes and plugins to your WordPress installation manually, you'll be left with a bunch of .zip files sitting around on your server. These are just dead weight and there's no need to keep them. Get on in there and do a bit of housekeeping. </p><h2>3. The 'Tools' menu</h2> <p>In the left sidebar of your dashboard. You ever used it before? Me neither. </p><p>Unless you have some specific reason for keeping it around, the Tools menu is one more piece of dashboard clutter you can safely get rid of. </p><h2>4. The 'Links' menu</h2> <p>Another less-than-useful dashboard menu. Granted, the links in question point to some very important information resources. </p><p>But anyone with a more than a passing familiarity with WordPress knows all these sites already. Unless you're a total WP newbie who's still learning to walk, you're probably never going to use the Links menu. </p><p><strong>To remove both the Tools and Links menus from your WordPress dashboard, open the <em>functions.php</em> file in your Theme editor and paste the following code:</strong> </p><pre><!--?php add_action( 'admin_menu', 'my_remove_menu_pages' ); function my_remove_menu_pages() { remove_menu_page('link-manager.php'); remove_menu_page('tools.php'); } ?--></pre> <h2>5. Any widgets that you're not going to to use</h2> <p>For your own personal WordPress site, useless widgets are just a waste of space. For a client's site, they're a potential headache waiting to happen (if your client decides to do a little widget experimentation without really knowing what they're doing). </p><p>Take a long, hard look at that group of widgets, and bring down the axe on anything that's not relevant or useful to the website. </p><p>Removing available widgets from the dashboard entirely is a fairly advanced procedure â€" check out <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Dashboard_Widgets_API#Advanced:_Removing_Dashboard_Widgets">this page in the WordPress Codex</a> for further info. </p><h2>Got anything to add to the list?</h2> <p>If you can suggest anything else than can and should be removed from WordPress, that we didn't cover in <a href="http://wpmu.org/things_to_remove_from_wordpress/">Part 1</a> or <a href="http://wpmu.org/4-things-you-should-remove-from-wordpress/">Part 2</a>, please let us know in the comment sections below. </p><p style="text-align:right"><sub><em>Image credits: <a href="http://www.bigstockphoto.com/image-1429918/stock-photo-goodbye">Goodbye</a> and <a href="http://www.bigstockphoto.com/image-408293/stock-photo-businessman-throwing-trash">Businessman Throwing Trash</a> from Bigstockphoto.</em></sub> </p></div> <br> </div> <div class="footer"> feedly. feed your mind. <a href="http://www.feedly.com">http://www.feedly.com</a> </div> </div><div><br><br>Sent from my iPhone</div></content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1603969415183389192/posts/default/1785356644669509394'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1603969415183389192/posts/default/1785356644669509394'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://builtbybeck.blogspot.com/2011/12/another-5-things-your-wordpress-site.html' title='Another 5 Things Your WordPress Site Doesn’t Need'/><author><name>BuiltByBeck</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16941503412261525740</uri><email>Brad@builtbybeck.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1603969415183389192.post-3317843135699711564</id><published>2011-12-31T13:01:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-31T13:01:43.558-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#kind' term='http://schemas.google.com/blogger/2008/kind#post'/><title type='text'>HACKED!

When he had it on his own site, it received 30 views. When he put it on SlideShare, 22,000 discovered it. </p><p>The moral of the story is pretty clear: pollinate the web with your content.

Check out this article on <a href="http://fitzvillafuerte.com/using-color-psychology-for-effective-business-marketing.html">color psychology in marketing</a> for further info. </li><li><strong>What kind of photos and graphics will you incorporate into the site?</strong> It's important that your color scheme matches your images, and vice versa. Photos can actually be a great source of inspiration when it comes to choosing colors for your site. </li></ol> <div></div> <h2>How many colors should you use?</h2> <p><a rel="lightbox[66142]" title="How To Choose a Great Color Scheme For Your Website" href="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Picking-colors-for-web-design.jpg"><img width="225" alt="Pick a color scheme for your website" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Picking-colors-for-web-design-300x300.jpg" height="225"></a>This is a hugely debatable question, but a good number of designers <strong>recommend using only 3 main colors on your website</strong>. The more colors you use, the harder it becomes to keep them all in harmony and create a balanced, consistent look for your site. </p><p>As a starting point, you could try following the <strong>60 â€" 30 â€" 10 Rule</strong>, which has been used by interior and fashion designers for many years and works equally well in web design. </p><p>The rule specifies that you should pick three different colors and use them in ratios of 60%, 30% and 10% respectively. </p><ul> <li>The 60% will be the primary color of your site and set the overall tone of your design. </li><li>The 30% should contrast with the 60% to create a visually striking effect. </li><li>The 10% is an 'accent color', which should complement either your primary or secondary color. </li></ul> <p>In conventional design wisdom, it's safer to make either the 60% or 30% a 'neutral' color (white, gray, beige, black and so on). This gives you the maximum number of options when choosing your other two colors, because neutral elements will generally "go with anything". </p><h3>Shades and tones for greater variety</h3> <p>Remember also that you have a certain amount of room to move within each color. In many cases, you will need to diversify your palette beyond your three basic elements. Rather than add a fourth and fifth color to your site and risk spoiling the design, try different shades and tones of your existing colors instead. </p><p>By lightening or darkening tones in certain places, you can create distinction without upsetting your harmonious three color balance. </p><h2>Free tools to help you choose a color scheme</h2> <p><a rel="lightbox[66142]" title="How To Choose a Great Color Scheme For Your Website" href="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Choose-colors-for-your-website.jpg"><img width="200" alt="How to choose colors for your website" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Choose-colors-for-your-website-200x300.jpg" height="300"></a>Fortunately, there's plenty of assistance available when it comes to choosing your website colors.

It's a relatively simple splash plugin that still gives you a number of nice options. </p><p>The WP Splash Image plugin allows you to <strong>display images, videos, or html code</strong> as your splash page. You can also set the plugin to start and end on chosen dates, set it to automatically disappear after a certain number of seconds, or you can let it remain until the user either clicks on it to go to your chosen page, or they or exit out of it by clicking on the X in the corner or on the webpage behind it. </p><p>Take a look at a few examples. </p><h2><strong>Image Splash</strong></h2> <p><a rel="attachment wp-att-66242" href="http://wpmu.org/make-a-splash-with-this-wordpress-splash-page-plugin/picture-splash/"><img width="647" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/picture-splash.jpg" height="508"></a> </p><p>&nbsp; </p><p><strong>Settings</strong> </p><p>You can take a look at some of the settings here. </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-66243" href="http://wpmu.org/make-a-splash-with-this-wordpress-splash-page-plugin/settings-5/"><img width="645" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/settings.jpg" height="715"></a> </p><h2><strong>Video Splash</strong></h2> <p>You can also choose from a number of video sites to display a video as the splash. The video sites include <strong>YouTube, Yahoo, Dailymotion, Metacafe, or any URL for a flash video</strong>. </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-66244" href="http://wpmu.org/make-a-splash-with-this-wordpress-splash-page-plugin/video-splash/"><img width="646" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/video-splash.jpg" height="448"></a> </p><p><strong>Video Code</strong> </p><p>If using the video splash, then make sure you insert only the <strong>code </strong>into the box and not the complete URL. For example, if the video's URL is the following: </p><pre><a href="http://youtu.be/-pXBP_EI9Yo">http://youtu.be/-pXBP_EI9Yo</a></pre> <p>Then you would only insert the last part (the code for the video): -pXBP_EI9Yo </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-66245" href="http://wpmu.org/make-a-splash-with-this-wordpress-splash-page-plugin/video-code/"><img width="646" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/video-code.jpg" height="538"></a> </p><h2><strong>Splash vs Pop Up</strong></h2> <p>The difference from the splash effect that this plugin offers and a pop-up is that the image or the video never actually "pops up." It is present from the beginning. It may be a small difference, but personally, I find that less annoying. It seems to me that popping up on a visitor can be like sneaking up on them from behind, and therefore more annoying. </p><h2><strong>Free, Easy Solution</strong></h2> <p>There are more sophisticated splash solutions out there, but there's a good chance you will need to pay for them. So if you looking to test out some splash effects, or you don't need something overly sophisticated, then this plugin might be just what you're looking for. </p><p>You can download the .<br> </p><p>&nbsp; </p><p>Photo: <a href="http://www.bigstockphoto.com/image-15033359/stock-photo-fresh-lemon-dropped-into-water-with-splash-isolated-on-white">Fresh lemon dropped into water with splash isolated on white</a> from BigStock </p></div> <br> </div> <div class="footer"> feedly. feed your mind. <a href="http://www.feedly.com">http://www.feedly.com</a> </div> </div><div><br><br>Sent from my iPhone</div></content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1603969415183389192/posts/default/6622334391368071928'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1603969415183389192/posts/default/6622334391368071928'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://builtbybeck.blogspot.com/2011/12/make-splash-with-this-wordpress-splash.html' title='Make a Splash with this WordPress Splash Page Plugin'/><author><name>BuiltByBeck</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16941503412261525740</uri><email>Brad@builtbybeck.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1603969415183389192.post-8001622427199633756</id><published>2011-12-31T12:58:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-31T12:58:02.756-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#kind' term='http://schemas.google.com/blogger/2008/kind#post'/><title type='text'>Free WordPress Tutorials â€" Recommended by The WPMU Community</title><content type='html'><div></div><div> <style> BODY{margin:1em;font-size:11pt;background-color:#FAFAFA;background-repeat:repeat;line-height:1.2em;color:#444;}a{color:#183d79;}table{font:inherit;}.source{padding-top:.2em;padding-bottom:1em;color:#444;}.source a{color:#inherit;}.article{padding:.5em;background-color:#eaeded;color:#444;-webkit-border-radius:5px;margin-top:1.5em;line-height:1.4em;}.header{padding-top:.4em;padding-bottom:.1em;font-size:16pt;font-weight:bold;}.footer{margin-top:1em;color:#444;} </style> <br> &nbsp; <div class="article"> <div class="header"> <b>Free WordPress Tutorials â€" Recommended by The WPMU Community</b> </div> <div class="source"> Published on <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Wpmu-Wordpress-Mu-PluginsThemesAndNews/~3/6DMmYKh16eY/">The WordPress Experts - WPMU.org</a> | shared via <a href="http://www.feedly.com">feedly mobile</a> </div> <div> <p><a rel="lightbox[66422]" title="Free WordPress Tutorials - Recommended by The WPMU Community" href="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Free-WordPress-Tutorials.jpg"><img width="300" alt="Learn WordPress with these free tutorials" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Free-WordPress-Tutorials-300x199.jpg" height="199"></a>Last week we rounded up a list of <a href="http://wpmu.org/learn-wordpress-for-free/">10 free resources for learning WordPress</a>, and asked our faithful readers to help us expand on this with some recommendations of their own.<br> As expected, we got some great suggestions from our friends in the WPMU community.

Pretty much all of us have embedded a YouTube video or Google Map, you might have embedded a Slide share presentation or a tweet. But there are embeddable tools and applications out there that are beyond the day-to-day standards. They can improve your blog by improving the way that content is displayed or increasing interactivity. I've been playing around with a few of them. Here are ten of my favourites. </p><h2><a href="http://http://answergarden.ch/">Answer Garden</a></h2> <p>Answer Garden is a minimalistic feedback tool that you can embed in your blog or website. You can use it for feedback, brainstorming or even for creating a simple poll. You can choose whether to allow your visitors to only submit one answer (like I have below â€" useful for polls) or submit unlimited answers (useful for brainstorming). </p><p> </p><p><small><a href="http://answergarden.ch/20522">What is your favourite embeddable web tool?…</a> at <a href="http://answergarden.ch">AnswerGarden.ch</a>.</small> </p><h2><a href="http://www.xtranormal.com/">Xtranormal</a></h2> <p>Xtranormal lets you create fun movies that you can upload to Youtube and embed in your site. You can sign up for an account for free or you can grab a Pro account. You can embed straight from Xtranormal or you can publish to Youtube and embed from there. The free account is fairly limited but it's still possible to make a cool video, like this one I made just for you (includes swearing!): </p><p><a style="font-size:14px;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.xtranormal.com/watch/12796516/the-trials-of-a-wordpress-plugin-developer">The Trials of a WordPress Plugin Developer</a><br>by: <a href="http://www.xtranormal.com/profile/7493373">spmckeown</a> </p><p> </p><h2><a href="http://www.wallwisher.com/">Wallwisher</a></h2> <p>Wallwisher is a fun tool for brainstorming, making announcements, taking notes and asking for opinions. It's really easy to get started with and embed in your blog or website. </p><p> </p><h2><a href="http://www.toondoo.com/">ToonDoo</a></h2> <p>ToonDoo is a fun tool for making cartoons for your website or blog. If you're like me then you have absolutely no talent when it comes to drawing. Long-term readers of <a href="http://wpmu.org">wpmu.org</a> will remember some of my crappy cartoons.

A free 360 cities lets you embed images in your personal blog â€" if you want to use them for commercial purposes you'll have to upgrade to a Pro account. Here's a 360 cities image of the Cathedral near my house. </p><p><br><a title="panorama photos of Canterbury Cathedral, interior, door to Choir on 360cities.net" href="http://www.360cities.net/image/canterbury-cathedral-interior-door-to-choir">Canterbury Cathedral, interior, door to Choir</a> in <a title="panoramic images from England" href="http://www.360cities.net/area/england">England</a> </p><h2><a href="http://www.dipity.com/">Dipity </a></h2> <p>Dipity is a fun tool for making timelines. You can set the up yourself and then invite people to contribute to them. As well as having a standard timeline like the one below you can create flipbooks, lists and maps. I've made a WordPress timeline with all of the WordPress releases.

Below is one of the popular slideshows made on PhotoPeach. </p><p> </p><h2><a href="http://kwout.com/">Kwout </a></h2> <p>You can use Kwout for quoting websites. Just install the addon and then you can grab areas of websites and embed them in your blog. What makes Kwout so useful is that it creates an image map of the area you have taken the screengrab from. Check out the image below from our G+ account. If you roll your mouse over the image you can click on any of the links. It even works on video! </p><div style="text-align:center"><img usemap="http://wpmu.org/#map_ufmz6t94" alt="https://plus.google.com/113918261231562979642/posts" src="http://kwout.com/cutout/u/fm/z6/t94_bor.jpg" width="600" style="border:none" height="273" title="WPMU.org - Google "><br> <map name="map_ufmz6t94"> <area href="https://plus.google.com/stream" alt="" coords="50,31,147,43" shape="rect"> <area href="https://plus.google.com/stream" alt="" coords="196,13,233,36" shape="rect"> <area href="https://plus.google.com/photos" alt="" coords="234,13,271,36" shape="rect"> <area href="https://plus.google.com/me" alt="" coords="271,13,308,36" shape="rect"> <area href="https://plus.google.com/circles" alt="" coords="308,13,345,36" shape="rect"> <area href="https://plus.google.com/games" alt="" coords="345,13,382,36" shape="rect"> <area href="https://plus.google.com/113918261231562979642/posts" alt="" coords="241,125,293,152" shape="rect"> <area href="https://plus.google.com/113918261231562979642/about" alt="" coords="293,125,346,151" shape="rect"> <area href="https://plus.google.com/113918261231562979642/photos" alt="" coords="346,125,406,151" shape="rect"> <area href="https://plus.google.com/113918261231562979642/videos" alt="" coords="406,125,464,151" shape="rect"> <area href="https://plus.google.com/113918261231562979642" alt="" coords="302,168,356,180" shape="rect"> <area href="https://plus.google.com/113918261231562979642/posts/4312xiAv132" alt="" coords="374,168,465,180" shape="rect"> <area href="http://wpmu.org/daily-tip-view-unlimited-number-of-posts-at-once-in-your-admin-area/" alt="" coords="319,191,599,203" shape="rect"> <p style="margin-top:10px;text-align:center"><a href="https://plus.google.com/113918261231562979642/posts">WPMU.org â€" Google </a> via <a href="http://kwout.com/quote/ufmz6t94">kwout</a> </p><h2><a href="http://www.voki.com/">Voki</a></h2> <p>You can use Voki to add a talking avatar to your website.

They thought they were on Big Bob's Blog, and now they're seeing a logo for something called WordPress. Even worse, when they click it, it even takes them to a place called WordPress. What the …? Where is Big Bob? </p><p>Not to worry. There are a number of simple plugins that will take care of this problem for you. </p><p>There are some fairly complex plugins that I've seen that will change nearly everything about your Admin areas, including the logo on the login page, but many people just need a simple solution to do this one simple thing. </p><p>Below are three plugins that will get the job done for you, changing the WordPress logo for your logo. </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-66800" href="http://wpmu.org/how-to-change-the-wordpress-login-logo-to-your-own-custom-logo/mylogo-login-page/"><img width="641" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/mylogo-login-page.jpg" height="700"></a> </p><h2>1. Uber Login Logo ()</h2> <p>The first option, the "Uber Login Logo" is so simple, it should be called the "Uber Simple Login Logo." It's so simple, in fact, it doesn't even have a "Save" button on the Settings page. Just upload your logo and it's done. It automatically links your logo to your home page, so you don't even have to worry about that. You'll probably spend more time looking for options and buttons that aren't there than you will actually getting your login page changed. </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-66801" href="http://wpmu.org/how-to-change-the-wordpress-login-logo-to-your-own-custom-logo/uber-login-logo/"><img width="641" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/uber-login-logo.jpg" height="389"></a> </p><h2>2. Customize Admin ()</h2> <p>The second option is slightly more sophisticated than the first, but not by much. It has a spot to upload your image, and a place to insert a URL for where you'd like the image to link to. There are a few other options on the page, but if you're just looking to change the login logo, then the first two are all you will need to worry about. </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-66802" href="http://wpmu.org/how-to-change-the-wordpress-login-logo-to-your-own-custom-logo/customize-admin-vanderwijk/"><img width="642" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/customize-admin-vanderwijk.jpg" height="343"></a> </p><h2>3. Admin Customization ()</h2> <p>The final plugin has the most options. It will let you change other elements such as the backend favicon, the dashboard widgets, update notices, and the admin footer text.

One fine day the curious client decides to experiment with all those shiny knobs and buttons in the WordPress dashboard. Within a few minutes they've broken their site, and they get straight on the phone to blame the whole mess on you. </p><p>Many developers try to avoid this unfortunate scenario by restricting the client's options to a bare minimum. </p><div style="width:610px"><a rel="lightbox[66949]" title="Stop Your Clients From Deactivating Important WordPress Plugins" href="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Disable-plugin-deactivation.jpg"><img width="600" alt="Remove the deactivate link from WordPress plugins" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Disable-plugin-deactivation.jpg" height="400"></a><p>Stop right there, client!</p></div> <p>If you build WordPress sites for a living, you probably have an arsenal of core plugins that you use on all (or at least most) of your projects. </p><p>If these plugins are vital to the functioning of your site, you sure as hell as don't want your client deactivating them by accident, and then sending you a barrage of abusive emails because their site has gone belly-up. </p><h2>Disable plugin deactivation in WordPress</h2> <p>You can entirely remove the option of deactivating plugins in WordPress, to safeguard all your hard work against the wandering fingers of an unsuspecting client. </p><p>To get started, add the following code to the <em>functions.php</em> file of your WordPress theme. </p><pre>add_filter( 'plugin_action_links', 'disable_plugin_deactivation', 10, 4 ); function disable_plugin_deactivation( $actions, $plugin_file, $plugin_data, $context ) { // Remove edit link for all plugins if ( array_key_exists( 'edit', $actions ) ) unset( $actions['edit'] ); // Remove deactivate link for important plugins if ( array_key_exists( 'deactivate', $actions ) &amp;&amp; in_array( $plugin_file, array( 'wpmu-dev-plusone/plusone.php', 'plugin-folder-name/plugin.php', 'plugin-folder-name/plugin.php' ))) unset( $actions['deactivate'] ); return $actions; }</pre> <p style="text-align:right"><sub><em>Thanks to <a href="http://www.wpbeginner.com/">WPBeginner</a> for the snippet.</em></sub> </p><p>You'll need to change the array of $plugin_file for each of the specific plugins that you're targeting here. The format is <em>plugin-folder-name/plugin.php</em>. </p><p>As you can see in the example above, I'm targeting the Google + plugin from WPMU DEV. The plugin file is called <em>plusone.php</em>, and lives in the folder <em>wpmu-dev-plusone</em>, which is in the <em>wp-content/plugins</em> directory on my server. </p><p>This code also removes the 'edit plugin' option, which is very unlikely to be used in any constructive manner by your client. If you want to keep the 'edit plugin' option for whatever reason, just remove that section of code from the snippet. </p><p><strong>Hey presto â€" the 'deactivate' and 'edit' links are removed from your important plugins, and you've got one less potential headache to worry about.</strong> </p><h2>Got any more suggestions for 'client-proofing' your WordPress projects?</h2> <p>Please leave a comment and let us know about any tools and tricks you use to secure your sites and stop clients messing everything up. </p><p style="text-align:right"><sub><em>Image credit: <a href="http://www.bigstockphoto.com/image-1242630/stock-photo-construction-stop-isolated">Construction Stop Isolated</a> from Bigstockphoto.</em></sub> </p></div> <br> </div> <div class="footer"> feedly. feed your mind. <a href="http://www.feedly.com">http://www.feedly.com</a> </div> </div><div><br><br>Sent from my iPhone</div></content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1603969415183389192/posts/default/5711220210996456271'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1603969415183389192/posts/default/5711220210996456271'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://builtbybeck.blogspot.com/2011/12/stop-your-clients-from-deactivating.html' title='Stop Your Clients From Deactivating Important WordPress Plugins'/><author><name>BuiltByBeck</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16941503412261525740</uri><email>Brad@builtbybeck.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1603969415183389192.post-2144524291206481153</id><published>2011-12-31T12:56:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-31T12:56:03.373-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#kind' term='http://schemas.google.com/blogger/2008/kind#post'/><title type='text'>Making The Most Of The WordPress.org Website</title><content type='html'><div></div><div> <style> BODY{margin:1em;font-size:11pt;background-color:#FAFAFA;background-repeat:repeat;line-height:1.2em;color:#444;}a{color:#183d79;}table{font:inherit;}.source{padding-top:.2em;padding-bottom:1em;color:#444;}.source a{color:#inherit;}.article{padding:.5em;background-color:#eaeded;color:#444;-webkit-border-radius:5px;margin-top:1.5em;line-height:1.4em;}.header{padding-top:.4em;padding-bottom:.1em;font-size:16pt;font-weight:bold;}.footer{margin-top:1em;color:#444;} </style> <br> &nbsp; <div class="article"> <div class="header"> <b>Making The Most Of The <a href="http://WordPress.org">WordPress.org</a> Website</b> </div> <div class="source"> Published on <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Wpmu-Wordpress-Mu-PluginsThemesAndNews/~3/BrOSBXo7Kwo/">The WordPress Experts - WPMU.org</a> | shared via <a href="http://www.feedly.com">feedly mobile</a> </div> <div> <p><img width="250" alt="WordPress" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/wordpress.png" height="249">The WordPress crew are a generous bunch. Many people (myself included) occasionally lose sight of the fact that we are using a completely free and open source piece of software. Yes, <a title="Matt Mullenweg" href="http://ma.tt/">Matt Mullenweg</a>&nbsp;isn't doing it all for charity, <strong>but we've got a lot to be thankful for</strong>. </p><p>Not only do we have the awesome WordPress platform to work with, we also have a fantastic resource in the form of the <a title="wordpress.org" href="http://www.wordpress.org/">wordpress.org</a> website. I hadn't fully explored the site until recently, and was pleasantly surprised by the wealth of useful information within. </p><p>So let's take a look! </p><h2><a title="wordpress.org blog" href="http://wordpress.org/news/">The Blog</a></h2> <p>Like any self-respecting website in the modern age, <strong><a href="http://wordpress.org">wordpress.org</a> has <a title="wordpress.org blog" href="http://wordpress.org/news/">its very own blog</a></strong>. A fairly&nbsp;tight-knit&nbsp;group of WordPress experts (including Matt Mullenweg himself) post around once per week. Most recently, as you might expect, Matt published <a title="WordPress 3.3 "Sonny"" href="http://wordpress.org/news/2011/12/sonny/">a post on the WordPress v3.3 update</a>, complete with a funky video. </p><p>If you have an interest in WordPress (and if you're here, I'm going to guess that you do), <a title="wordpress.org blog" href="http://wordpress.org/news/">the wordpress.org blog</a> should be on your radar. </p><h2><a title="Showcase" href="http://wordpress.org/showcase/">Showcase</a></h2> <div style="width:545px"><img width="535" alt="Showcase" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/showcase.jpg" height="411"><p>Two of the sites highlighted on the Showcase today.</p></div> <p>Seeking inspiration? Look no further than <a href="http://wordpress.org">wordpress.org</a>'s very own <a title="wordpress.org Showcase" href="http://wordpress.org/showcase/">Showcase</a>. Sites are rated by WordPress users based on their "implementation and use of WordPress", so there is no particular bias. </p><p>Not only that, they are categorized by type (e.g. standard WordPress, multisite, BuddyPress, and so on) and tagged â€" if you are looking for inspiration in a particular field, <strong>you can customize your search accordingly</strong>. For instance, if you were working on a corporate site, you could&nbsp;<a title="Business Blog Showcase" href="http://wordpress.org/showcase/tag/business/">check these&nbsp;out</a>&nbsp;for inspiration. </p><h2> &amp; <a title="Themes" href="http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/">Themes</a></h2> <p>I'll only touch on these two areas briefly as you would have to call your home the underside of a rock to not be familiar with them. Having said that, the themes and plugins sections on <a href="http://wordpress.org">wordpress.org</a>, although not without their faults, are without a doubt <strong>the best resources on the web</strong> when you're looking to customize your WordPress site. </p><h2><a title="Ideas" href="http://wordpress.org/extend/ideas/">Ideas</a></h2> <p><img width="230" style="border-width:1px;border-color:black;border-style:solid" alt="Lightbulb" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/lightbulb.jpg" height="240">Plugins and themes can be found in the <a title="Extend" href="http://wordpress.org/extend/">Extend</a> section of <a href="http://wordpress.org">wordpress.org</a>, as can <a title="Ideas" href="http://wordpress.org/extend/ideas/">Ideas</a>. <strong>Now we're getting into the true spirit of open source collaboration.</strong> Here you can make suggestions for improvements to WordPress, and other users can vote on your suggestions. </p><p>The ideas with the highest votes are taken into strong consideration for future updates. <strong>If you have ideas as to how WordPress can be improved, here is your outlet!</strong>&nbsp;For instance, check out <a title="WordPress drag &amp; drop upload" href="http://wordpress.org/extend/ideas/topic/wordpress-drag-drop-upload">this little suggestion</a>…sound familiar? </p><h2><a title="Kvetch!" href="http://wordpress.org/extend/kvetch/">Kvetch!</a></h2> <p>Who doesn't love to complain? I'm British, so I absolutely love to do it, but usually by muttering under my breath or writing a really terse letter. That'll do the trick. </p><p>So I can't help but love <a title="Kvetch!" href="http://wordpress.org/extend/kvetch/">wordpress.org's anonymous complaint feature</a>. <strong>Just drop "what ails you" into the box and Kvetch it!</strong> </p><h2><a title="Mobile" href="http://wordpress.org/extend/mobile/">Mobile</a></h2> <p>I dare say that the majority of WPMU readers use&nbsp;smart phones. What can I say â€" you're the technologically enlightened type. The team at <a href="http://wordpress.org">wordpress.org</a> recognize this and are working very hard to produce genuinely useful and usable apps for smart phones and tablets. </p><p>I personally use the WordPress app for iOS whenever I am away from my laptop â€" <strong>its features have come on in leaps and bounds recently</strong>. </p><h2><a title="About WordPress" href="http://wordpress.org/about/">About WordPress</a></h2> <p>If you are interested in learning a bit of history and also getting a better idea of where WordPress is heading, <strong>you should check out the <a title="About WordPress" href="http://wordpress.org/about/">about section</a></strong>. It is hard to believe that the world's most popular CMS has only been in existence for a few years. </p><div style="width:310px"><img width="300" alt="Codex" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/codex.jpg" height="195"><p>The humble codex has come a long way...</p></div> <h2><a title="The WordPress Codex" href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page">The Codex</a></h2> <p><strong>This is the holy grail.</strong> I don't know what I would do without <a title="The WordPress Codex" href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page">the WordPress codex</a>. It is to WordPress what Wikipedia is to the world (and Wikipedia helped me get my degree â€" you've gotta love that). </p><p>It's got you covered on everything from a basic introduction to WordPress, to plugin and theme development.&nbsp;If you have a question, there is a pretty good chance that it has already been answered here. And if not, I know where you can head next… </p><h2><a title="The Forums" href="http://wordpress.org/support/">The Forums</a></h2> <p>The word comprehensive is somewhat obsolete when it comes to the WordPress forums. At today's count, there are nearly 2,500,000 posts on a multitude of topics â€" from <a title="Installation" href="http://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation">installation</a> to <a title="Meetups" href="http://wordpress.org/support/forum/meetups">meetups</a>. That right folks â€" nearly 2.5 <strong>million</strong>&nbsp;posts. That's a whole lotta information for you to sift through and get the answers you need. </p><h2>One Last Thing…</h2> <p>The folks at <a href="http://wordpress.org">wordpress.org</a> seemingly aren't happy enough with what they're offering at the moment and are working on an update. If you're interested in helping them out, <a title="wordpress.org survey" href="http://wordpressdotorg.polldaddy.com/s/wordpress-org-site-survey">just fill in this simple 5 question survey</a>.

Unfortunately, some don't â€" even some you pay a pretty penny for. </p><p>&nbsp; </p><h2><strong>The Solution â€" Automatically Limit Max Width of Images in WordPress</strong></h2> <p>Just put this into the bottom of your style.css file. <em>(Appearance &gt;&gt; Stylesheet: style.css)</em> Or even better, put it into a custom.css file â€" this way it won't get overwritten if you update your theme. </p><pre>img {max-width:98%; height: auto;}</pre> <p>This tells WordPress to make the maximum width of the image 98% of the space available in your content area. (Of course you can change this to whatever percentage you'd like.) It then tells WordPress to adjust the height of the image and keep the original aspect ratio. This way you don't get stretched out images. </p><h2><strong>The Result â€" Before and After</strong></h2> <p>This first screen shot is of a very large image in a blog post.

We're not talking about partially private here. We're talking about a blog that's completely off the grid except for those who have access. </p><p>I'm sure there are several ways to set one up. This way seem simple enough. It only takes three easy steps. </p><h2><strong>1. Private Only Plugin ()</strong></h2> <p>Install and activate the Private Only Plugin. There isn't a lot to this plugin. It will automatically re-route all visitors who aren't logged in to a login page. And from there, either they know the magic password or they don't. </p><p>This plugin also allows you to upload your own logo on the login page if you like. </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67423" href="http://wpmu.org/how-to-set-up-a-wordpress-private-blog/login-private/"><img width="626" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/login-private.jpg" height="469"></a><br> </p><h2><strong>2. Disable RSS Plugin ()</strong></h2> <p>Although the Private Only plugin above does a good job of keeping front-door visitors out, unfortunately it leaves your RSS feed completely wide open. This means that people can still read everything that goes on by accessing your site's feed. </p><p>This plugin will take care of that. </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67418" href="http://wpmu.org/how-to-set-up-a-wordpress-private-blog/disable-rss-2/"><img width="626" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/disable-rss1.jpg" height="250"></a> </p><h2><strong>3. Block Search Engines</strong></h2> <p>For good measure, it probably wouldn't hurt to block search engines just in case. You can do this from you Privacy settings page: Settings &gt; Privacy &gt; "Ask search engines not to index this site." </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67424" href="http://wpmu.org/how-to-set-up-a-wordpress-private-blog/privacy-settings/"><img width="626" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/privacy-settings.jpg" height="226"></a><br> And that should do it.

You will only need to make a new category template file for the categories you would like to change. </p><h2><strong>How to Make a New Category Template</strong></h2> <p><strong>Create a New File</strong> </p><p>You will need to go into your theme's folder on your server to make your new category template. </p><p>Go to wp-content &gt; themes &gt; (your current theme). You should see a file there named category.php. </p><p><em>(<strong>Note:</strong> Some themes do not have a file named category.php. If that's your case, look for a file named archive.php.)</em> </p><p>To make a new category template, create a new file and name it "category-(name).php"&nbsp;where (name) is the name of your category. </p><p>For example, say you want to make a category template for your "Food" category. Name the new file: </p><pre style="padding-left:30px">category-food.php</pre> <p>(<strong>Note:</strong> You are really naming the file according to your category "slug." Unless you changed the slug to something different when you set up your categories, it should be named exactly the same as your category. If your category has more than one word, you will have hyphens between the words â€" e.g. Breakfast Food = breakfast-food, and so your category template would be named category-breakfast-food.php.) </p><p>&nbsp; </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67799" href="http://wpmu.org/how-to-create-a-unique-wordpress-category-archive-page/creating-new-file/"><img width="625" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/creating-new-file.jpg" height="258"></a><br> </p><p><strong>Copy Your Original Category File</strong> </p><p>Probably the easiest way to create a new category template is to start with the same information that's in your original category file. So open up your original category.php file. (In many systems you will need to click "Edit" to open it). Copy the original file and then open your newly created file (e.g. category-food.php) and paste everything into that new file. </p><p>You can then change the new file to suit your purposes for your Food category. You can give it new styling through your stylesheet, you can include or delete functions, etc. </p><p>&nbsp; </p><p><strong>An Example</strong> </p><p>For a quick example, I will add a line of text to my new category-food.php file that I created. </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67800" href="http://wpmu.org/how-to-create-a-unique-wordpress-category-archive-page/new-cat-template-text/"><img width="626" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/new-cat-template-text.jpg" height="260"></a> </p><p>After saving it, this line of text should appear only on my Food Category archive page. And taking a look at it, it does. </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67801" href="http://wpmu.org/how-to-create-a-unique-wordpress-category-archive-page/new-cat-template/"><img width="625" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/new-cat-template.jpg" height="450"></a> </p><h2><strong>New Category Template Pages</strong></h2> <p>You can change your new templates to look however you like â€" giving them completely different styles or making them "behave " in a completely unique way. You're only limited by your imagination. </p><p>Photo: <a href="http://www.bigstockphoto.com/image-2732801/stock-photo-be-unique">Be Unique</a> from BigStock </p></div> <br> </div> <div class="footer"> feedly. feed your mind. <a href="http://www.feedly.com">http://www.feedly.com</a> </div> </div><div><br><br>Sent from my iPhone</div></content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1603969415183389192/posts/default/6483149956479071002'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1603969415183389192/posts/default/6483149956479071002'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://builtbybeck.blogspot.com/2011/12/how-to-create-unique-wordpress-category.html' title='How to Create a Unique WordPress Category Archive Page'/><author><name>BuiltByBeck</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16941503412261525740</uri><email>Brad@builtbybeck.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1603969415183389192.post-2129368753858054734</id><published>2011-12-31T12:53:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-31T12:53:23.313-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#kind' term='http://schemas.google.com/blogger/2008/kind#post'/><title type='text'>7 WordPress Time and Date Plugins to Keep Your Site Ticking</title><content type='html'><div></div><div> <style> BODY{margin:1em;font-size:11pt;background-color:#FAFAFA;background-repeat:repeat;line-height:1.2em;color:#444;}a{color:#183d79;}table{font:inherit;}.source{padding-top:.2em;padding-bottom:1em;color:#444;}.source a{color:#inherit;}.article{padding:.5em;background-color:#eaeded;color:#444;-webkit-border-radius:5px;margin-top:1.5em;line-height:1.4em;}.header{padding-top:.4em;padding-bottom:.1em;font-size:16pt;font-weight:bold;}.footer{margin-top:1em;color:#444;} </style> <br> &nbsp; <div class="article"> <div class="header"> <b>7 WordPress Time and Date Plugins to Keep Your Site Ticking</b> </div> <div class="source"> Published on <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Wpmu-Wordpress-Mu-PluginsThemesAndNews/~3/wkqbuSJLhYg/">The WordPress Experts - WPMU.org</a> | shared via <a href="http://www.feedly.com">feedly mobile</a> </div> <div> <p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67886" href="http://wpmu.org/7-wordpress-time-and-date-plugins-to-keep-your-site-ticking/2012-big/"><img width="625" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/2012-big.jpg" height="635"></a> </p><p>As a new year approaches, thoughts naturally turn to the subject of time. And so in that vein, here are seven WordPress plugins that revolve around the time/date theme. </p><h2>1. WP Scheduled Themes ()</h2> <p>Do you have a special theme you'd like to display on New Year's Day? Will you be sleeping in instead of attending to your site? </p><p>No problem. Enter the WP Scheduled Themes plugin. </p><p>This plugin lets you schedule a change in your site's theme on whichever day you'd like. It also lets you set an end date for the theme. One other nice function is that it lets you set up this schedule to occur yearly. So if you regularly switch to a certain theme at certain times of the year, you can set it up once and have your site change at just the right times. </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67888" href="http://wpmu.org/7-wordpress-time-and-date-plugins-to-keep-your-site-ticking/schedule-theme-settings/"><img width="634" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/schedule-theme-settings.jpg" height="330"></a> </p><h2>2. Dynamic Dates ()</h2> <p>The Dynamic Dates plugin lets you insert shortcodes to automatically create user-friendly dates on the fly. </p><p>For example, let's say you had a meeting every Sunday. You could insert a shortcode that would automatically let a visitor know the actual date of next Sunday's meeting. </p><p>&nbsp; </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67891" href="http://wpmu.org/7-wordpress-time-and-date-plugins-to-keep-your-site-ticking/dynamic-dates/"><img width="631" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/dynamic-dates.jpg" height="563"></a> </p><p>This is a relatively simple example, but you can get more sophisticated with it if you like. In order to see different types of options, you will need to read the instructions on the WordPress plugin page (there is no settings page for the plugin). </p><h2></h2> <h2>3. Auto Future Date ()</h2> <p>This plugin allows you to randomly automate publishing future posts within certain parameters. For example, you can tell it to publish a post between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. anywhere from one day from the last published post on the site to five days from the last published post on the site. </p><p>This is good for bloggers who write a lot of posts at once but then want to space them out. </p><p>&nbsp; </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67892" href="http://wpmu.org/7-wordpress-time-and-date-plugins-to-keep-your-site-ticking/auto-future-date/"><img width="631" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/auto-future-date.jpg" height="746"></a> </p><p>&nbsp; </p><h2>4. Date/Time Now Button ()</h2> <p>This plugin adds a "Now" button to your publish screen that lets you change the publishing time of&nbsp;a post, page, or comment to the current time. </p><p>This is a handy plugin for anyone who does a fair amount of editing on posts, pages, or comments and would like to republish the page at the current time and date (as opposed to leaving it published at the original time and date). It's also a nice feature for reconfiguring scheduled posts to be published at whatever the current time and date are. </p><p>In the example below I scheduled a post to publish at 10:32 p.m. (22:32). I then hit the "Now" button and it automatically changed the time for the current time â€" 2:32 p.m. (14:32). </p><p>&nbsp; </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67893" href="http://wpmu.org/7-wordpress-time-and-date-plugins-to-keep-your-site-ticking/now-button/"><img width="632" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/now-button.jpg" height="609"></a> </p><p>&nbsp; </p><h2>5. Magic Dates ()</h2> <p>This handy little plugin lets you use shortcodes to calculate the number of years from a certain year and insert that number into your text. </p><p>For example, let's say you wrote something last year that read, "He has 12 years experience in his field." That's fine, but now it's a year later, and so he has another year of experience. Enter the Magic Dates plugin. </p><p>See an example of it in action: </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67894" href="http://wpmu.org/7-wordpress-time-and-date-plugins-to-keep-your-site-ticking/magic-dates/"><img width="631" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/magic-dates.jpg" height="662"></a> </p><p>&nbsp; </p><h2>6. Hetjens Expiration Date ()</h2> <p>This plugin adds a meta box to your visual editor page that allows you to set the post to expire. When the post expires, it is moved to the trash.

Or, you can do it for only one or two categories to really mark those off as different. </p><p>When you assign a category an icon, the image that you've chosen will show up all over your site whenever a post from that category is present. </p><p>Before we get into the code, let's take a look at how these icons might look on your site. </p><h2><strong><br> Music Category Example</strong></h2> <p>Let's say you have a category for music, and you want to assign that category an icon. Although you could assign every category an icon, you choose to only assign the Music category an icon. (Maybe you're a musician, and you know that a lot of people come to your site for your take on music. But you write about other things too. In order to help people easily identify the music posts at a glance, you include your icon to help them out.) </p><h2><strong><br> Front Page</strong></h2> <p>When not every post gets an icon, you will see only icons on Music category posts in places like the homepage of your site. </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67576" href="http://wpmu.org/spice-up-your-wordpress-site-by-giving-categories-their-own-icons/front-page-posts-icons/"><img width="630" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/front-page-posts-icons.jpg" height="646"></a> </p><p>&nbsp; </p><h2><strong>Category Page</strong></h2> <p>Of course on your Music category archive page, all the posts will be music posts, and so each one will have an icon associated with it. </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67577" href="http://wpmu.org/spice-up-your-wordpress-site-by-giving-categories-their-own-icons/music-category-archive-page/"><img width="630" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/music-category-archive-page.jpg" height="669"></a> </p><p>The Music category page will even get an extra little icon up in the corner (or wherever you position your icons to be.) </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67580" href="http://wpmu.org/spice-up-your-wordpress-site-by-giving-categories-their-own-icons/category-archive-top-right/"><img width="629" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/category-archive-top-right.jpg" height="323"></a> </p><p>&nbsp; </p><h2><strong>Single Page Post</strong></h2> <p>You will also see your icon show up on your single page post. </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67581" href="http://wpmu.org/spice-up-your-wordpress-site-by-giving-categories-their-own-icons/single-post-page/"><img width="630" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/single-post-page.jpg" height="629"></a> </p><p>&nbsp; </p><h2><strong>How to Do It</strong></h2> <p>The code you need is very simple. You will only need a line of CSS styling. </p><p>When you have the URL of your icon (make sure to size it so it's not too big â€" I used 60×60 pixels for mine), go to the Stylesheet for your theme. (Appearance &gt; Edit &gt; Stylesheet â€" style.css) </p><p>Place the following code in your stylesheet and save it. </p><p><code>.category-music {<br> background: url(<a href="http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/musicman60.jpg">http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/musicman60.jpg</a>) no-repeat top right;<br> }</code> </p><p> As you can see, all you need to do is name your category and then style it, using a background image. You can do this for any category. Just put ".category-" and then put the category slug (in this case it's "music"). </p><p>Unless you changed your category slug when you set your categories up, it should be the same name as&nbsp;your category. </p><p>And that's all there is to it. </p><p>&nbsp;

One of the more obviously practical ones is the ability to choose how a browser should open the link (in a new tab, in the same tab). </p><h2><strong>Images with Links</strong></h2> <p>Another nice feature is the ability to include an image to be placed alongside of the link. Unless you specifically style your links for large images, then typically you will want to use a very small image, something along the lines of a favicon. In the example below, I used a 16×16 favicon. </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67837" href="http://wpmu.org/daily-tip-develop-richer-more-personal-wordpress-blogroll-links/link-with-image/"><img width="624" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/link-with-image.jpg" height="366"></a> </p><h2><strong>Define Relationships with XFN</strong></h2> <p>An interesting feature that may be less obviously practical is the ability to provide extra information about your relationship to the site or the person you are linking to. This is done in conjunction with XFN. XFN stands for <a href="http://gmpg.org/xfn/">XHTML Friends Network</a>. </p><p>You can attach information to the link that says, for example, whether you are a personal friend of the person you are linking to, whether you are related to the person, whether the person is a co-worker, and a lot more. </p><p>This information is not obviously visible to a visitor of your site. It is meant to be read by machines (i.e. computer programs that map out social connections). How is this valuable? Well, at the moment it might not be so valuable for the average user, but the idea is to eventually create a more social web where you can define relationships and connect with people in a way you might on Facebook or LinkedIn â€" without having to be on Facebook or LinkedIn. </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67838" href="http://wpmu.org/daily-tip-develop-richer-more-personal-wordpress-blogroll-links/link-settings/"><img width="624" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/link-settings.jpg" height="611"></a> </p><h2><strong>Beefier and Better Links</strong></h2> <p>If you haven't checked out the Links section of your blog in a while, you might give it a fresh look.

Turn on any 24-hour TV news station and you will be bombarded with all sorts of information flying at you from every corner of the screen â€" newscasters talking to you, infographics appearing, photos popping up, and the ubiquitous "news crawl" of stories, scores, stock prices, and more swimming along the bottom of it all. </p><p>But here's the thing â€" we're used to it. And because we're used to it, anything less can sometimes look stale or boring. </p><p>And so if you'd like to give the sense that your website is as current and information-rich as a 24-hour news station, it might help if you borrow some of their tactics. </p><p>One such tactic that is easily achieved is the "news ticker" or the scrolling crawl of stories that you see running along the bottom of the screen. </p><p>The following five plugins can give you a personalized news crawl for your site based on your own content (and in some cases others' content if you like). </p><h2>1. <strong>Vertical Scroll Recent Post ()<br> </strong></h2> <p><span style="text-decoration:underline">Main Features</span> </p><ul> <li>Widget-ready or add directly to theme </li><li>Control number of posts to display in the scroll at the same time </li><li>Control max number of posts to display </li><li>Control which categories posts come from </li></ul> <p>&nbsp; </p><p><span style="text-decoration:underline">Potential Drawback</span> </p><ul> <li>One issue is that long titles tend to overlap onto the next title down the list. This can be fixed by controlling the height of the titles on the settings page; however, you may end up with more space between your titles than you wish. </li></ul> <p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67853" href="http://wpmu.org/5-wordpress-scrolling-ticker-plugins-to-liven-up-your-site/vertical-scroll-front/"><img width="638" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/vertical-scroll-front.jpg" height="527"></a> </p><p>&nbsp; </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67854" href="http://wpmu.org/5-wordpress-scrolling-ticker-plugins-to-liven-up-your-site/vertical-scroll-settings/"><img width="638" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/vertical-scroll-settings.jpg" height="609"></a> </p><p>&nbsp; </p><h2><strong>2. Post Scroll Excerpt <strong>()</strong><br> </strong></h2> <p>From the same plugin author as Vertical Scroll Recent Post plugin above, this plugin works the same way except it includes excerpts along with the titles of the posts. </p><p>The overlapping issues in this plugin are more easily controlled than in the Vertical Scroll Recent Post plugin because the increased amount of space needed for the excerpts makes each title and snippet appear in a more evenly spaced manner. </p><p><span style="text-decoration:underline">Main Features</span> </p><ul> <li>Widget-ready </li><li>Control number of posts to display in the scroll at the same time </li><li>Control max number of posts to display </li><li>Control which categories posts come from </li><li>Control excerpt length </li></ul> <p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67855" href="http://wpmu.org/5-wordpress-scrolling-ticker-plugins-to-liven-up-your-site/post-scroll-excerpt-front/"><img width="637" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/post-scroll-excerpt-front.jpg" height="603"></a> </p><h2><strong>3. Post Title Marquee Scroll <strong>()</strong><br> </strong></h2> <p>From the same author as the first two plugins, this widget-ready plugin scrolls recent posts titles horizontally. </p><p><span style="text-decoration:underline">Main Features</span> </p><ul> <li>Control the direction of the scroll </li><li>Control style â€" color and font </li><li>Control style of "splitter" â€" the dividing symbol between titles </li><li>Control number of posts </li><li>Control post categories </li><li>Short codes for posts and pages </li><li>Add directly to theme (or use widget) </li></ul> <p>&nbsp; </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67856" href="http://wpmu.org/5-wordpress-scrolling-ticker-plugins-to-liven-up-your-site/post-title-marquee-scroll-front/"><img width="636" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/post-title-marquee-scroll-front.jpg" height="414"></a> </p><p>&nbsp; </p><h2>&nbsp;<strong>4.

News-Ticker <strong>()</strong><br> </strong></h2> <p>The News-Ticker plugin gives you a number of nice options. It's one potential drawback, depending on what you're looking for, is that it presents each item one at a time instead of in a continuous crawl. In other words, the first item will completely leave the screen before the second item appears. </p><p>Especially if you are using excerpts with your items, however, that may not really matter much. </p><p><span style="text-decoration:underline">Main Features</span> </p><ul> <li>Display recent posts, most popular posts, most commented posts, or specific posts </li><li>Display RSS feeds </li><li>Filter by category </li><li>Control number of posts </li><li>Control excerpt length </li><li>Control ticker speed </li><li>Control ticker height (scroll left, right, up, down; fade in; etc.) </li><li>Control ticker animation </li></ul> <p><span style="text-decoration:underline">Potential Drawback</span> </p><ul> <li>No widget </li><li>One item at a time â€" not a continuous crawl </li></ul> <p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67859" href="http://wpmu.org/5-wordpress-scrolling-ticker-plugins-to-liven-up-your-site/news-ticker-front/"><img width="635" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/news-ticker-front.jpg" height="433"></a> </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67860" href="http://wpmu.org/5-wordpress-scrolling-ticker-plugins-to-liven-up-your-site/news-ticker-settings/"><img width="636" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/news-ticker-settings.jpg" height="763"><br> </a> </p><p>Photo: <a href="http://www.bigstockphoto.com/image-24664553/stock-photo-stock-market-tickers-abstract">Stock market tickers abstract</a> from BigStock </p></div> <br> </div> <div class="footer"> feedly. feed your mind. <a href="http://www.feedly.com">http://www.feedly.com</a> </div> </div><div><br><br>Sent from my iPhone</div></content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1603969415183389192/posts/default/845739364141623818'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1603969415183389192/posts/default/845739364141623818'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://builtbybeck.blogspot.com/2011/12/5-wordpress-scrolling-ticker-plugins-to.html' title='5 WordPress Scrolling Ticker Plugins to Liven Up Your Site'/><author><name>BuiltByBeck</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16941503412261525740</uri><email>Brad@builtbybeck.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1603969415183389192.post-7654084183162147447</id><published>2011-12-31T12:43:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-31T12:43:43.966-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#kind' term='http://schemas.google.com/blogger/2008/kind#post'/><title type='text'>Konstantin Kovshenin: Snippet!

What if you wanted to have a shortcode work in your header, for example? </p><p>Putting a regular shortcode in your theme's files will not work as it would if you put it in a post or a page. But there's a way around that. </p><p>Simply insert your shortcode into the following line of code, and place it where you like. </p><pre style="padding-left:30px"><!--?php echo do_shortcode('[my-shortcode]'); ?--></pre> <p>Of course you will need to substitute [my-shortcode] for your actual shortcode. For example, I placed my category counting plugin shortcut above in my header like this: </p><pre style="padding-left:30px"><!--?php echo do_shortcode('[catcount]'); ?--></pre> <p>Actually, I made it part of a complete sentence like this: </p><pre style="padding-left:30px">The total number of categories is <!--?php echo do_shortcode('[catcount]'); ?-->.</pre> <p>The result looks like this: </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67945" href="http://wpmu.org/daily-tip-how-to-insert-shortcodes-into-a-wordpress-theme/shortcode-3/"><img width="628" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/shortcode.jpg" height="301"></a> </p><p>And that's all there is to it.

If you do not have Cpanel, you will need to navigate to your database via the system you have. You may need to contact your webhost if you run into problems. </p><p>* It's recommended that you back up your database before proceeding. </p><h3>1. Login to your account on your server / your Cpanel Admin area.</h3> <h3>2. Access your database(s) via phpMyAdmin (found in the Databases section of Cpanel)</h3> <p>&nbsp; </p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-67925" href="http://wpmu.org/how-to-change-your-wordpress-username/phpmyadmin-3/"><img width="627" alt="" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/phpmyadmin.jpg" height="199"></a> </p><p>&nbsp; </p><h3>3.

Bring your friends.</div>Stuck for ideas on how to make your blog more interactive and user-focused? How about letting readers submit their own content and vote on the stuff the like?<br />With a couple of plugins, you can quite easily transform your blog into a mini-social bookmarking site, in the style of <a href="http://digg.com/">Digg</a> or <a href="http://reddit.com/">Reddit</a>. You'll need two basic components to put this into action:<br /><h2>1. Front end posting</h2>You need to make it as simple as possible for people to submit content to your site. This means front end posting: allowing your readers to contribute to your blog without having access to your dashboard.<br />Check out this list of <a href="http://wpmu.org/8-wordpress-plugins-that-enable-posting-and-editing-from-the-front-end/">8 WordPress plugins that enable front end posting</a>, and decide which one best suits your own requirements.<br /><h2>2. Post voting</h2>The second ingredient in your social bookmarking experiment is post voting functionality. You need to give your readers the ability to rate content on your site.<br /><a href="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/WordPress-social-bookmarking-site.jpg" rel="lightbox[65665]" title="Daily Tip: Create Your Own Social Bookmarking Site With WordPress"><img alt="Add social bookmarking plugins to your WordPress site" height="199" src="http://wpmu.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/WordPress-social-bookmarking-site-300x199.jpg" width="300" /></a>The <a href="http://premium.wpmudev.org/project/post-voting-plugin">Post Voting Plugin</a> from WPMU DEV adds a sleek 'thumbs up/thumbs down' voting button to your blog posts.<br />You can also add a 'top voted articles' widget to your WordPress site, which allows readers to see the most popular content, as chosen by your audience.<br />On the back end, you can view a range of voting statistics and see how different posts have fared in the long term.<br />Get content and get votes â€" that's really all you need to create your own little piece of the social bookmarking movement.<br /><b>Have you implemented something like this on your own WordPress site?

Maybe they’ll find it with the help of social media.<br /><br /><a name='more'></a><br /><br />Savvy job seekers already know that they can search for jobs via Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn, but that typically involves a company-by-company search. Now the U.S. Labor Department is trying to make things easier. Last week, the Labor Department announced a partnership with Facebook to launch a <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/socialjobs?sk=info">special page</a></span>. It will bring together the job-search services of the National Association of Colleges and Employers, the DirectEmployers Association, and the National Association of State Workforce Agencies. Many of these services are often below the radar of people searching for jobs.<br /><br />This is novel collaboration acknowledging the fact that a social media network could play a central, coordinating role in helping people find jobs. At a news conference on October 20, Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis indicated there are 14 million people out of work, but some 3 million job openings are available in the United States.<br /><br />Marne Levine, Facebook’s VP for global public policy, <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/technology/2011/10/facebook-labor-department-job-seekers.html">said</a></span> the new page is “a free, online job fair that can be accessed seven days a week, day or night. Our labor market is changing, and so should the tools that are used to find these jobs.†Levine said the company would support the effort by making public service announcements on Facebook, concentrating on the ten states where unemployment remains highest.<br /><br /><h3>Consolidated Resources</h3><br />The Facebook page includes a variety of resources consolidated in one place, as well as the ability for users to share stories about how the Social Jobs Partnership helped them find a job. After just a few days, the Social Jobs Partnership page already had over 11,000 fans, a promising sign that the service is gaining early traction.<br /><br />In addition to launching the Facebook page, the “Social Jobs Partnership,†as it is called, will conduct in-depth survey research about the ways in which job seekers, college career centers, and workforce recruiters are using the social web. It will also explore and develop systems where new job postings can be delivered virally through the Facebook site at no charge.<br /><br />The partnership plans to distribute educational materials about leveraging the power of the social web to recruiters, government agencies, and job seekers. Eventually, the partnership will expand to Twitter, LinkedIn, and other social networking sites, according to Labor Secretary Solis.<br /><br /><h3><b>Lessons for Marketers</b></h3><br />There are some intriguing lessons for online marketers to learn from this major initiative:<br /><br /><ol><br /><li><b>Facebook is as much a portal as a page.</b> Marketers typically think of Facebook as a medium for single-company usage. However, social media could be all the more powerful if symbiotic marketers were to collaborate and take advantage of strength in numbers. The Social Jobs Partnership is a good example of several organizations with a common purpose coming together to form a portal-type page that achieves a unified goal.</li><br /><li><b>Competitors can cooperate.</b> Some of the organizations working together in the Social Jobs Partnership may have competed with each other in the past, but unemployment is a compelling problem. It’s something all of these groups can rally around. In a tough economy, rules have to be re-evaluated. It is not inconceivable that marketers may find themselves in situations where they need to practice “co-opetition,†working side by side with competitors so that everyone can gain from a collaborative effort.</li><br /><li><b>Social media can make big things happen quickly.</b> The Social Jobs Partnership is not an insignificant initiative as it’s spearheaded by a federal agency. In the past, such an initiative would have likely taken a long time to get off the ground. But with social media, even the Labor Department can be nimble. This is something for marketers to keep in mind when they want to get the word out rapidly about a new product, service, or marketing campaign. Social media is ideal for doing just that.</li><br /><li><b>Feedback is an aspect of social media marketing that should not be overlooked. </b>I don’t know how many people will actually take the time to tell their stories about finding a job via the Social Jobs Partnership Facebook page. Giving job seekers the option to do so shows that the Labor Department recognizes social media is a two-way street. Encouraging feedback suggests that sponsoring organizations care about job seekers and want to hear about their successes. This may seem obvious, but many marketers still make the mistake of treating social media as a uni-directional media outlet instead of a medium whose real power is in active two-way dialogue.</li></ol><br />Many Americans are pointing fingers at a dysfunctional government that doesn’t always seem able to help solve pressing problems. That’s why it’s encouraging to see this kind of innovative use of Facebook by the U.S. Labor Department in an effort to reduce the unemployment rate.<br /><br /><div><h3>Related Posts:</h3><ul><li><a href="http://www.revenews.com/online-marketing/a-fresh-look-at-linkedin/" rel="bookmark">A Fresh Look at LinkedIn</a></li><li><a href="http://www.revenews.com/community-engagement/linkedin-quietly-stays-in-the-mix/" rel="bookmark">LinkedIn Quietly Stays in the Mix</a></li><li><a href="http://www.revenews.com/social-networking/do-fameounts-numbers-tell-the-whole-story-when-it-comes-to-popularity/" rel="bookmark">Do Famecount’s Numbers Tell The Whole Story When It Comes To Popularity?</a></li><li><a href="http://www.revenews.com/internet-strategy/new-data-analyzes-use-of-facebook-and-twitter-for-advertising/" rel="bookmark">New Data Analyzes Use of Facebook and Twitter for Advertising</a></li><li><a href="http://www.revenews.com/affiliate-marketing/visa-scores-big-with-world-cup-social-media-campaign/" rel="bookmark">Visa Scores Big With World Cup Social Media Campaign</a></li></ul></div><div><br /><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/%7Eff/ReveNewsOnlineRevenueBlogs?a=Ch0gHL2T01Y:zUnWWWZikT0:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/%7Eff/ReveNewsOnlineRevenueBlogs?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" /></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/%7Eff/ReveNewsOnlineRevenueBlogs?a=Ch0gHL2T01Y:zUnWWWZikT0:63t7Ie-LG7Y"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/%7Eff/ReveNewsOnlineRevenueBlogs?d=63t7Ie-LG7Y" /></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/%7Eff/ReveNewsOnlineRevenueBlogs?a=Ch0gHL2T01Y:zUnWWWZikT0:dnMXMwOfBR0"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/%7Eff/ReveNewsOnlineRevenueBlogs?d=dnMXMwOfBR0" /></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/%7Eff/ReveNewsOnlineRevenueBlogs?a=Ch0gHL2T01Y:zUnWWWZikT0:7Q72WNTAKBA"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/%7Eff/ReveNewsOnlineRevenueBlogs?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" /></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/%7Eff/ReveNewsOnlineRevenueBlogs?a=Ch0gHL2T01Y:zUnWWWZikT0:D7DqB2pKExk"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/%7Eff/ReveNewsOnlineRevenueBlogs?i=Ch0gHL2T01Y:zUnWWWZikT0:D7DqB2pKExk" /></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/%7Eff/ReveNewsOnlineRevenueBlogs?a=Ch0gHL2T01Y:zUnWWWZikT0:YwkR-u9nhCs"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/%7Eff/ReveNewsOnlineRevenueBlogs?d=YwkR-u9nhCs" /></a></div></content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1603969415183389192/posts/default/573420668008549059'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1603969415183389192/posts/default/573420668008549059'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://builtbybeck.blogspot.com/2011/11/help-wanted-social-jobs-partnership.html' title='Help Wanted â€" Social Jobs Partnership Opens on Facebook'/><author><name>BuiltByBeck</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16941503412261525740</uri><email>Brad@builtbybeck.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1603969415183389192.post-3431947485088112090</id><published>2011-11-06T00:12:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-11-10T00:07:38.388-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#kind' term='http://schemas.google.com/blogger/2008/kind#post'/><title type='text'>New Themes: iTheme 2 and Bold News</title><content type='html'><a href="http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2011/10/18/new-themes-itheme-2-and-bold-news/">New Themes: iTheme 2 and Bold News</a>: <br />If you are doing a great job on your blog and posting regularly, sometimes important posts fade away from the home page.
