Pinterest

Pinterest is super hot right now – it’s the fastest growing social networking site on the web.

Millions of users have already been “trained” to use Pinterest in a certain way.

So by using this new “Covert PinPress” theme you are tapping into all that buzz – and it will really give your blog a boost.

People are much more likely to spend more time on our site, read your content and click on your links.

And perhaps more importantly – your social sharing stats and traffic will go through the roof as people re-pin, like and  comment on your posts.

MULTI SITE LICENSE!

There are a few other Pinterest themes out there. But the best one (second best now), doesn’t even come close to doing what Covert PinPress does.

And yet they will still charge you big bucks for a single site license.

With Covert PinPress you get unlimited multi-site and developer’s license include at no extra cost.

And the Covert PinPress theme is available as a WSO right now and it’s still dirt cheap.

However it is a dime sale, so the price does go up with every order!

I recommend that you check it out now – it’s really good – and you’d want to get in before the price goes up!

No More Jetpack!

If it looks too good to be true, it probably is.

It was.

Automattic.com “locked-on” to one of my JetPack-using sites, firing thousands of requests, and resulting in my hosting account getting suspended. I’ve had to remove it from ALL sites, just in case.

Not Impressed! 🙁

P.S. This happened some time ago, I’ve just realised that I hadn’t mentioned it, and I don’t want to give the impression that JetPack is working fine – it’s NOT!

Better WP Security – So Secure It Doesn’t Let ANYONE In! | Internal Server Error

Better WP Security (BWP)

I’ve been using this plugin for ages without any problems.
Until Now.

TWO of my sites went down with mysterious “Internal Server Error” messages.
Even the usual URL/license.txt routine generated the error, so it was clearly not a WordPress problem exactly.

I actually went as far as logging a support ticket with Unlimited Web Hosting, but I was already suspecting the htaccess file.. Sure enough, there was an error (a missing word) in there, caused by BWP.

I corrected this, and it’s sorted.

So, here’s how to fix this problem:

  • FTP (or file manager) into your site.
  • Open .htaccess
  • Look at the bottom end of the file.
  • There will either be a missing command (you can’t miss it – it’s obvious), or a chopped-up word. Again obvious. Insert the magic word (it’ll be the same as the line above or below it), or correct/delete the chopped-up word.
  • Save the changes.
  • Access your site.

Essential WordPress Plugins (Updated)

Why Use Plugins?

WordPress is immensely powerful straight out of the box, but it’s possible to add pretty much ANY functionality you want, and it’s usually for free.

OUR Favourites

This is a list of the TOP Plugins we use at q292u.com. Others may not agree.
They are in no particular order.

Right Now..

This is an UPDATED version of an updated version of an earlier post. There are SIGNIFICANT changes, as WordPress is such a moving target.

Here’s The List:


AKISMET

ESSENTIAL anti-spam system. Free to non-commercial users.
Filters out unwanted (spam) comments automatically, and provides stats on what it’s doing. ESSENTIAL.

WORDPRESS SEO (YOAST)

We now use this in preference to All-In-One-SEO-PACK. Allows us to tailor in-post SEO far better. Also handles Sitemaps. ESSENTIAL

BETTER WP SECURITY

Plugs all the holes we could find. Also handles backups. Excellent! ESSENTIAL

ADROTATE

Handles advertising on your site. Very comprehensive. Individual ads are created and then made into groups. You can then position the groups as widgets, in posts and on pages. Ads have start and end dates, and tracking can be switched on or off. Better than maxbannerads. ** The latest version has had features removed due to a “premium” version. Avoid this version. STRONGLY RECOMMENDED

WP AUTO TAGGER

Automatically adds relevant tags to your posts as you create them, based on post content. It’ll find tags you hadn’t thought of. STRONGLY RECOMMENDED.

AUTO POST THUMBNAIL

Automatically sets the “Featured Image” attribute of the post, based on the content. STRONGLY RECOMMENDED

HYPERCACHE

Excellent caching plugin, creates static version of all your posts and pages as they are created. Far better than SUPERCACHE. ESSENTIAL if you use a lot of plugins, or have a lot of visitors.
Get the “Clear Cache” Button plugin as well.

EXCLUDE FROM NAVIGATION

Some themes automatically add all pages to navigation menus. This is how to stop it. Adds a checkbox in the editor. ESSENTIAL.

SMART 404

Attempts to redirect 404 errors to relevant pages based on search query, and URL requested. Reduces bounce-rates. ESSENTIAL

Google Analytics (YOAST)

This adds Google Analytics tracking code to all your pages and posts, so you can keep tabs on everything. You need an analytics account. ESSENTIAL.

YARRP (Yet Another Related POsts Plugin)

Thsi is the best of it’s kind- Adds related posts links to your posts. Essential for internal links. ESSENTIAL

STOP SPAMMERS REGISTRATION

Blocks spammers from ever registering. Uses blacklists, etc so they can’t post. Nice. STRONGLY RECOMMENDED

COVERT SOCIAL CONTENT

We use this instead of FEEDWORDPRESS, due to performance issues. NOT FREE!
Strongly Recommended

COVERT SOCIAL BUZZ

Generates Likes/Tweets/etc. Not Free. Strongly Recommended.

WP SOCIAL POPUP

Pops up Social Links on accessing the site. Generates Likes/Tweets/etc. Strongly Recommended.

SOCIAL LOCKER (FREE Version)

Excellent! – Locks up content until the user tweets, likes, g+1 or whatever. STRONGLY RECOMMENDED.

WordPress Database – Bulk Delete Users

Bulk Delete Users

I had 1000 spammer registrations from the same 2 domains.
Here’s how I got rid of them all, in seconds..

From the PLESK database “Web Admin”:

Delete the users..

delete FROM wp_users
WHERE user_email LIKE ‘%@domain.com’

** you could use ANY criteria here – I wanted rid of two specific groups of spammers..

Now-> Delete Orphaned Usermeta

** BACKUP YOUR DATABASE FIRST!

NB: you COULD try the “Bulk Delete Users” Plugin, but it tries to delete them one-by-one. On my shared hosting, it times out and is effectively useless, which is why I’m using SQL at the backend.

Please note: You should NEVER leave your tables with the default “wp_” prefix. Or have a user called “admin”, or a user with id=1. That’s just for start!

WordPress Database – Delete Orphaned Posts

Delete Orphaned Posts

After manually using SQL to delete users, you can be left with (potentially a lot) of posts which now belong to users who simply don’t exist. You don’t want this, it wastes space and clogs things up.
There are two solutions to this:

  1. Delete the Orphaned Posts
  2. Assign them to another user.

I’m going to use option1, as I deleted those users for a reason – Spamming!

From PLESK or CPANEL database web admin:

Delete Orphaned Posts

DELETE
FROM `wp_posts`
WHERE post_author NOT
IN (
SELECT id
FROM wp_users
);

NONE of my tables have a wp_ prefix!

Now DELETE ORPHANED POSTMETA..

** BACKUP YOUR DATABASE FIRST!

Please note: You should NEVER leave your tables with the default “wp_” prefix. Or have a user called “admin”, or a user with id=1. That’s just for start!

WordPress Database – Delete Orphaned Postmeta

Delete Orphaned Postmeta

After deleting posts using SQL, you will be left with (potentially a LOT) of orphaned postmeta records. You don’t want that! It wastes space and clogs up site performance. Get rid!

From PLESK or CPANEL database web admin:

DELETE
FROM wp_postmeta
WHERE post_id NOT
IN (
SELECT ID
FROM wp_posts
);

** BACKUP YOUR DATABASE FIRST!

Please note: You should NEVER leave your tables with the default “wp_” prefix. Or have a user called “admin”, or a user with id=1. That’s just for start!

WordPress Database – Delete Orphaned Usermeta

Delete Orphaned Usermeta..

After using SQL to bulk-delete users, you’ll be left with (potentially a lot) of orphaned records in the “usermeta” table. You don’t want that. It’ll just waste space and clog things up.
After deleting 1000 user records, I had 20000 orphaned usermeta records – you get the picture..

From PLESK web admin, or similar:

delete FROM wp_usermeta WHERE user_id NOT IN (
SELECT ID
FROM wp_users
);

** BACK UP YOUR DATABASE FIRST!

Please note: You should NEVER leave your tables with the default “wp_” prefix. Or have a user called “admin”, or a user with id=1. That’s just for start!
