Latest Update Between 23rd December 2009 and 5th January 2010

WordPress Automatic Plugin was tested on my blog to be working for versions 2.9 to 2.9.1.

Latest Update Between 28th June 2009 and 15th November 2009
WordPress Automatic Plugin was tested on my blog to be working for upgrades from 2.7.1 to 2.8 and also from 2.8 to 2.8.6.
Bug Fixes:
WordPress auto-upgrade just missed out the wp-tinymce.js.gz file under “wp-includes\js\tinymce” and it has caused all the problem.  As a result, WYSIWYG TinyMCE editor will not be usable after using the auto-upgrade feature.
To fix the problem, download a release copy of WordPress 2.8 and locate the file wp-tinymce.js.gz under the wp-includes\js\tinymce of the release copy.  Upload this file to the same directory on your server and the problem will be solved!  :)
The original solution was located finally reported and posted on the WordPress support forum, “2.8: WYSIWYG editor not working in Firefox 3.0.1
Latest Update: 23rd February 2009
The latest WordPress Automatic Upgrade Plugin version 1.2.5 must be used in this upgrade from WordPress 2.7 to 2.7.1.

Latest Update: 12th December 2008
Wordpress Automatic Plugin was tested on my blog to be working for upgrades from 2.6.5 to 2.7!

Update 27th November 2008:
Wordpress 2.6.5 Is Now Released!

Here’s a little video on the new amazing features available since WordPress 2.6:

Upgrading WordPress used to be a 3 hour pain for me.  Fortunately, you can do so with this amazing plugin I’ve discovered – WordPress Automatic Upgrade.

Using this plugin, I’ve managed to complete the full upgrade (backup+installation) today, from 2.5.1 to 2.6 in under 5 minutes!  That’s a whopping 97% time saving (not to mention mental stress too)!

I’ve tested it on a mockup installing on my home machine before giving the green light to go ahead with my blog.

Based on my own success, I highly recommend this plugin if you want to save some time.

Caveat: Please be sure to make adequate backups before using this plugin (although it can do decent backups for you as well)

Latest Update:

Automatic Upgrade Works for me on 2.6, 2.6.1, 2.6.2, 2.6.3, 2.6.5 and 2.7, 2.7.1 upgrades.

Dear WordPress Comrades,

If you’ve been searching for ways to spice up your WordPress installation, learn a few tricks and amaze your visitors, then you’ve landed onto the right place!

Hundreds of thousands of people uses WordPress CMS daily and it’s not difficult to see massive amount of support for the blogging platform. The series of pages over here aims to share what I have personally learn about the software and how you can benefit the many tricks and tips that I have quietly disclosed.

Many bloggers attempt to keep their blogging secrets in their pockets, and that is not the way to massively expand an open-source community.

On the other hand, I have to agree that certain propiertary technologies and scripts should not be shared, or at least to be paid for before you can take advantage of that. This includes certain themes and plugins that are developed for commercial purposes.

Here in WordPress Hacks, I’ll attempt to chart as many open-sourced scripts, plugins and techniques as possible and keeping the paid ones to the minimum.

On the right hand side, I’ve included a table of contents with links to static pages for topics on various WordPress Hacks that I’ve discovered.

These hacks should work for most people. If in case they are not working for you, kindly drop your questions or comments related to in that topic. Hopefully, through the power of the open community, someone can point you to the desirable answers.

Thanks a lot for dropping by and happy WordPress hacking!

Note: We are still in the process of adjusting the content for the topics in these pages. Thanks for your patience and do keep checking back!

It’s no secret that I’m a fan of responsive themes. Knowing that your WordPress blog will look just as good on a tiny mobile screen as it does on a huge desktop screen is one of the most important factors of design to me, especially in today’s age where mobile device usage is growing so rapidly.

Sadly, there aren’t many responsive themes out there, but Responsive Plugin aims to change that. Once released, Responsive Plugin will make any theme scale perfectly on any screen size. There is no de...


WPTavern: VoodooPress Celebrates 1 Year Anniversary By Giving Away T-Shirts
by Jeffro
4 Feb 2012 at 12:00am

WordPress community site VoodooPress has recently turned one year old. To celebrate, they are giving away VoodooPress branded T-Shirts. They come at the cost of providing the site some social love by clicking on any of the social media icons on the site. Small price to pay for a chance at a T-Shirt. Congrats to the VoodooPress team and I hope the second year is better than the first!

Just imagine how powerful one would be if they wielded a GPL voodoo doll.
