I do not really know what’s going on much. Something bad happened. Anyway, I was more curious on how, a WordPress password protected post, get indexed by Google.

And so she spoke:

1. apologies to all the folks who requested for the password for my password protected posts today.. i’m afraid i had to remove them because there is an error with my wordpress theme that only allows the password to be used once. strange thing, that is. oh well. i guess i’m just not meant to rant under cover :\ (Source: Quaintly)

Seems like WordPress password protection can be foiled by a lousy theme.

Nothing wrong with WordPress itself I guess. On a side note regarding password protected posts, no one should ever trust a piece of software too much. Security flaws get reported now and then and software is something that has the right to be released with flaws. Software is a faith-based product, consumers use software knowing that there are bugs and have faith that the developers would fix it as quick as they can.

 

I prefer to place my uploads into /media/ instead of the default /wp-content/uploads/

So I changed it, but the link is always incorrect for some strange reason:

WordPress uploads files to wrong folders

WordPress uploads file to /media/ but continues to link my images to /wp-content/uploads/. To resolve this issue, specify the folder path manually like I did. Somehow the problem is gone. I wonder if it’s a bug or what.

Before the WordPress 2.6 upgrade, WordPress 2.5 was handling this just fine. Meanwhile, you can learn more about a WordPress 2.6 easter egg.

 

version 2.6 of WordPress.org is now available, almost a month ahead schedule. Version 2.6 “Tyner,” named for jazz pianist McCoy Tyner, contains a number of new features that make WordPress a more powerful CMS: you can now track changes to every post and page and easily post from wherever you are on the web, plus there are dozens of incremental improvements to the features introduced in version 2.5.

Get it now!

If you have Google Gears:

Google Gears saves some JavaScript in your local computer so that you don’t have to download them again and again when you launch your editing interface. The great advantage to it? You basically can click on the Insert Link button and the dialog box appears with no wait no fuss.

The above, in my opinion, is my favorite new feature of WordPress 2.6. That said, Uzyn, hello Uzyn, time to migrate back to WordPress, haha5…

 

This is one pretty cool feature - Post revision in Wordpress 2.6:

It makes post collaboration a reality. It probably won’t be that useful for single author blogs such as this. (Image and new source: mdwaffe)

 

Just saw this at WordPress hosting page. I supposed they sort of recommend these hosts and Media Temple is the second on the list.

MediaTemple

“Hosting that’s ready for traffic spikes. Start your new blog on a clustered hosting platform that’s ready for you to hit the big time. Whether you reach the front page of Digg or get an unexpected shout-out on Oprah, your blog will always be available. Get started right-away with our WordPress 2.5 one-click installer and enough high-speed storage and bandwidth to run a blogging empire.”

If you have to reading my blog, you probably know that I am not too happy with Media Temple these days.

I lost a lot of faith in them when they have storage issues. Sometimes I can’t reach my own blog. But I got really mad when they claimed that my databases are overloaded or something. (more…)

 

Just saw this in WordPress when it tries to auto save and I wonder what happened:

Did I do anything wrong? If there’s something wrong, it’s that I post too much today.

 

WordPress powered and Django inspired.
Love and elephants come after.
