5 Useful WordPress Posts

Date June 20, 2008

Sorry, I’m running a little late on my links post today. I have to say thanks to Phil for inspiring me on what category to use for these links.

Checklist for Setting up WordPress - Phil has been building Wordpress sites like crazy for quite awhile now, and lucky for us, he’s distilled his knowledge into a checklist. Great list Phil, Thanks!

A Rule of Thumb for Categories - Here’s another Gem from Phil. On  our Drupal site, I’ve had to create categories by hand, which makes for far fewer categories then what you see in most WordPress blogs. Phil shares his rule of thumb on categories, and why it’s his rule.

WordPress: The complete post install checklist - Like they say about checklists, you can’t have just one. Well, maybe that’s chips or something, but you get my point. Might as well have a couple of check lists, it always helps to have another’s perspective.

9 Easy Ways to Secure your WordPress Blog - This time, a list about security. This list tells you how to lock it down a little more.

3 WordPress Security Tips I learnt from Matt Cutts - Well, I didn’t learn them from him, but the author of this article did, and I learned them from him. Knowledge transfer in action!

      Mike,

      Thanks for the comment. Those other links look very helpful as well. I’ll have to check them out. I need to beef-up my security measures for sure.
