WordPress Tutorial: Managing WordPress Auto-save and Post Revision Control

by Teli Adlam

WordPress Revisions Example One of the hot new features of 2.6 is post/page revision management. This is a splendid feature for multi-author blogs because it allows you to see what was changed in a post, by whom and when. Unfortunately, this is a bit overboard for single author bloggers who truly don’t need to keep a running tally of every single revision.

Since WordPress developers didn’t disable this feature by default or provide a distinct option under Settings, it will require a bit of file editing or installation of a plugin to properly manage.

WordPress Hosting Review

by Teli Adlam

It’s no secret that I’ve been using the WordPress blogging software for a while and in that time, I’ve gone through a number of hosts as well. Since “Who do you recommend for WordPress hosting?” is a frequent question, I figure it would be a good idea to address it in a blog entry.

Rather than tell you my top pick, I’ll list a few of the hosts I recommend with a short review of each and let you decide which one best suits your needs. Initially, I had planned to split the list into “Recommended” and “Not Recommended”, but due to its length, my server pitched a conniption fit and I’ve had to drop an entire section. (Don’t worry, I’ll do a follow up entry on the hosts I don’t recommend later.)

Now, without further ado, the hosts I recommend in order of recommendation… Continue reading »

Now, before I veer too far off topic, this is just a quick update on what’s going on with the WP Affiliate Guide; a side project geared towards affiliate marketers who would like to use WordPress to manage their websites. Continue reading »

Comment Paragraphs: One Jumbled Mess

by Teli Adlam

Something I see more and more of as I peruse the blogosphere is comment paragraphs without any padding or margins added. Don’t these bloggers know that white space adds to a website’s readability? But, then again, it’s not entirely the blog author’s fault–it’s the theme designer’s. Continue reading »

Buy Blog Comments: Buyer Beware

by Teli Adlam

Buy Blog Comments

Caveat emptor is the only thing that applies when dealing with the Buy Blog Comments service because you will not get what you paid for. Let me back up and explain.

Last year, a new service was announced. Basically, this service was akin to paying people to manually spam blogs on your website’s behalf in order to build back links. The service’s creator, Jon Warass, vehemently denied the comments would be anything but legitimate. That was later debunked when I managed to track down a few of the allegedly "high quality" comments and they turned out to be little more than gibberish.

Well, that discussion lead to a heated debate with one commenter about the viability of such a service and whether I had a right to badmouth them without actually using their service. In essence, giving them a review without actually experiencing their services first hand. I concurred with this commenter.
