As you may have already known, WordPress 2.7 introduces a lot of new features, among them are the hierarchical comment system, a brand new admin panel, and most interesting (for me) the ability to make a post “sticky”. This concept of sticky posts is not new, in fact it’s been around quite a while in [...]

Firstly, I’d like to show off a bit: hey I’ve caught up with the crowd, now both of my sites (this one and Thica.net) are upgraded to WordPress 2.7 - well, let’s hope that it is not prone to new vulnerabilities. The most significant change is the admin section - for the first time in [...]

Hi everyone! It’s been a while… yes I know I’m feeding up your ears (or eyes) with this same old same old greeting, but I’ve never been a good speaker.

And I wasn’t watching the election neither (I know that Obama won however, through some stories on [...]

As you may know, I’ve just written my first WordPress plugin some days ago. You guess it, one of the most important steps to popularize a software is preparing a good readme file.
