By using the P3 plugin, you can narrow down anything causing slowness on your site. What we say: It can take a few for the scan to run so just go get another beer and you’ll be fine. This give some ver nice information on what is or may be causing an issue on your site. I ran it on mine and discovered a plugin that was running slow and slowing down the site turned it off since it was not essential to improve loading time. Rating: 3 Dragons   Lazy Widget Loader             Version: 1.2.3             Author: itthinx (Karim Rahimpur)             Last Updated: 132 days ago             Requires WordPress Version: 3.0 or higher             Compatible up to: 3.3.1             Downloaded: 2,114 times             WordPress.org Plugin Page »             Plugin Homepage » What they say: The Lazy Widget Loader plugin provides lazy loading for widgets to improve page loading. Use it on slow widgets, especially those where external data is loaded, like widgets from Facebook, Twitter, AdSense, ... What this plugin basically does is to postpone loading the content of those widgets you choose, so that their content is loaded after the main content of the page that is displayed. You can choose which widgets should be loaded like that, by default the plugin does not “impose” itself on any widget. You may also choose to display a throbber while the content of a widget is loaded. What we say: Simple install no setting except a box to remove data if you deactivate it. Then simply go to the widgets in question and apply the plugin. I tried this plugin on my own site in the hopes I could improve an issue I have been having with extended virtual memory use and excessive resource use. Seems to have improved it a bit..

This is a special episode of the WordPress Plugins from A to Z Podcast, this contains the audio from my presentation at WordCamp Victoria 2012. In an effort to help folks understand the simplicity of  WordPress this presentation is called WordPress 101 and discusses how and what you can use WordPress for and what to look for during all your initial setup of your WordPress install. While WordPress has its famous 5 minute install it still take a little bit past that to get it completely up and running. So enjoy the presentation and you can view the slides from the presentation here. Unfortunately some of the questions are a bit hard to here but I did try to repeat them to make them clear for the recording. WordPress101 pptView more presentations from John Overall.

So did the SOPA blackout do any good? I sure hope so. Not one to rest on my laurels too long I am launching a new site to go with this great podcast, the site is ready for preview by those who listen to this podcast so please check it out. WordCamp Victoria went well I will have the audio up from my talk there soon. Matt made a video appearance and well Matt you need a haircut... Shout Outs: Thanks Manny For your inspiration for this weeks plugins.. List of interesting sites that run on WordPress: World of WordPress News and other interesting WordPress related posts: Genesis 1.8 dropped today SOPA seems to have stalled if it is not dead anyway. List of Plugins: -----Johns Plugins------- Comment Plugins: While there are numerous plugins for enhancing comments I will be focusing here on plugins to manage comments. Facebook Comments for WordPress 3.1.3 Version: 3.1.3 Author: we8u Last Updated: 271 days ago Requires WordPress Version: 3.0.4 or higher Compatible up to: 3.1.4 Downloaded: 302,906 times WordPress.org Plugin Page » Plugin Homepage » What they say: This plugin integrates the Facebook commenting system (new, old or both) right into your website. If a reader is logged into Facebook while viewing any comment-enabled page or post, they'll be able to leave a comment using their Facebook profile. What we say: This one necessitate creating a FaceBook app, so if your not real comfortable with the idea of monkeying around best to give this a pass. They do however give some decent instructions on how to create the app so if you can read and follow instructions you might give this a try. The problem I have with this plugin is the total loss of control of my data, make no mistake comments on your website are part of your data and part of what help search engines index you. If however you like minimal work to maintain your comments this is great for you. Rating: 2 Dragons - due to work involved in setting it up. Disqus Comment System 2.70 Version: 2.70 Author: Disqus Last Updated: 51 days ago Requires WordPress Version: 2.8 or higher Compatible up to: 3.2.1 Downloaded: 561,888 times WordPress.org Plugin Page » Plugin Homepage » What they say: Disqus, pronounced "discuss", is a service and tool for web comments and discussions. Disqus makes commenting easier and more interactive, while connecting websites and commenters across a thriving discussion community. The Disqus for WordPress plugin seamlessly integrates using the Disqus API and by syncing with WordPress comments. What we say: First you will need to go to http://disqus.com/admin/register/ to create an account for your website if you do not already have one. A bit of a pain but seems pretty easy. Again it take total control away from you on handling your comments, it does give you some ways to moderate the comments but they are pretty much the same as in WordPress. They would however like you to upgrade your free manager to a paid one that would include things like analytics and theme editor.. My questions is why do this when you can have all the same control directly in WordPress. Rating: 2 Dragons due to work involved in getting it up and running.

Welcome to 2012 the end of time or so it would seem according to the talk heating up on the web.. I have actually been monitoring the terms Mayan Calendar for a couple of years with google alerts as I have an interest in that ancient civilization. It had been real quite up until about a month ago and just this last week they started coming in like crazy (pun intended)... I discovered what is missing in that new admin menu is quick links to items such as add new plugin, and the master list for posts and pages. And I realized that I had to throw out Akismet and Hello Dolly again.. very irritating. And now has WordPress.org been slow the last few days guess everyone is updating.. Shout Outs: A belated happy new year and welcome to the Year of the Dragon.... And this is out to you Manny for your patience in waiting for the podcast and all our other fans who thought we had disappeared. Marcus says hello to Russ Hayes who will be talked about a bit more on an upcoming show with a premium plugin he will be releasing. Check out more of Russ’ work at gpscraper.com .

Add the shortcode in a post or page, and use the arguments to query based on tag, category, post type, and many other possibilities (see the Arguments). I've also added some extra options to display something more than just the title: include_date, include_excerpt, and image_size. What we say: I found this to be a very simple plugin that solved my need to display post excerpts on a static page using short code so I would not have to mess around creating a unique template for just one page. Rating 4 dragons Gravity Forms Directory & Addons Version: 3.2.1 Author: Katz Web Services, Inc. Last Updated: 87 days ago Requires WordPress Version: 2.8 or higher Compatible up to: 3.2.1 Downloaded: 24,922 times WordPress.org Plugin Page » Plugin Homepage » What they say: Turn Gravity Forms into a Directory plugin Gravity Forms is already the easiest form plugin...now, the Gravity Forms Directory & Addons plugin turns Gravity Forms into a great directory. Completely shortcode based, using the [directory] shortcode Includes built-in searching Allow logged-in users to edit their directory listings Choose to show entries to only the users who created them Sort by column What we say: I found this to be a great plugin for showing off you specialized links much better than the blogroll. It is not entirely intuitive to use though it is pretty simple once you understand it. You simply create yourself a form with whatever fields you want then you place that on one page for collecting the info. Then you place the form as a directory on another page and then adjust your columns and voila it works. Rating 3 Dragons due to issues around setting it up and getting going.

There are snowflakes, leaves, drops - and balloons that can float upwards. You can simply add more images in the pics folder and they will appear on the settings page. I also happily accept images submitted to me as long as they are properly licensed. You can configure the number of snowflakes and limit the plugin to specific posts or pages. What we say: Pretty cool has a great choice of snow flakes to choose from. You also get the chance to limit it to certain pages, have multiple types of flakes and even Santa. Love this simple plugin for a short festive season. Plus you can add balloons for other events if you like. Also the snow stops after a set time so you make it less annoying to your visitors if you like.

John’s & Marcus Rant: What to rant about? making fun of spammers, seems I have been targeted by SEO spammers and others that think I need help ( well I might but not in that way) I figure if they can find me something must be happening otherwise how else do they manage to contact me.. lets take this most recent one and the first spam comment to get though in almost a year “by MarciaDale --http://www.johnoverall.com The internet has become the world’s marketplace. You can do business all over the world. But you have to stand out from your competition. It’s all in the website, linking, keywords — all the tools of Search Engine Optimization. We know them. Let us show you how we can help you.” My guess is it got though because they used my own domain as the one in the url box and damn they almost seem sincere....

Provide access to downloads, online content, videos, forums, support and more through flexible membership levels and options. Simple to use, flexible - this plugin will meet all of your membership site needs. Want to create a site like GigaOm, Izzy Video, PSD Tuts? Now you can do it, easy! You can use Membership lite to create... A WordPress membership site, offering resources, forums, downloads, videos, support and more... with two different levels of membership and complete customizations. Multiple membership sites on a WordPress MultiSite install - so any user of your site can have their own membership site. What we Say: This one also has a premium version but in the case of that if I cannot get the free one to work properly I will not spend the money on premium. What I found is that it is pretty easy to get all set up instructions are pretty easy but I ran into one major glitch. Every time I tried to register it would lock up on the second page of registration requesting to select a subscription but unable to select it. Finally had to abandon it due to this issue. Rating 3 Dragons due to issue around the registration page. Free WP-Membership Plugin 1.1.8 Version: 1.1.8 Author: Ben M.

Levels can protect Posts, Pages and Categories. Levels are not sequential, they are more like groups.
