WP Super Cache plugin comes highly recommended but unfortunately the WP Super Cache Settings are not always straightforward. I shall not go into the technical details of what a cache plugin does for your WordPress site. (Honestly, I couldn’t get into the technical details even if I wanted to!)

My mini bloglovin post today is short and sweet. As part of verifying this here is truly my blog, (and ahem, to tell you to love blogloving and follow me with Bloglovin) – I have to show you this link: Follow my blog with Bloglovin as part of the verification process. “What is Bloglovin you say?” I […]
External links in new window or not?
August 8, 2013 by Leave a Comment
I had no idea that there were such strong feelings over this seemingly innocuous topic of whether to open external links in new window (or tab). This controversy was brought to my attention by Abbey Wilkins of Pretty Good Design. (Thanks Abbey!) Since then I have read a number of articles on this topic (some […]

Right off the bat, I declare my love for Genesis and I boastfully declare that the Genesis links below are affiliate links. It doesn’t mean I love Genesis because I am an affiliate but rather I love Genesis Themes so much, I HAD to be come an affiliate. Did you hear me? LUUUURVE Genesis Themes […]

I have been getting random (and suspicious) WordPress User Registration. When that happens, you will get an email notifying you.

Genesis WordPress Theme is one of the top two premium themes for WordPress. The other is Thesis. In WordPress Theme can affect Plugins Needed, I explained how a theme can help me minimize the number of plugins I need. I thought one day I would be choosing Genesis WordPress Theme or Thesis.

Comment Author link to Open in New Window
Comment Author link in WordPress, by default, opens up in the SAME WINDOW. That is such a No-No! Your visitors leave your site as soon as they click the Comment Author’s link!
