It helps us to keep revisions of our posts and we can restore to previous revisions anytime.Although this is a great feature, but what happen if you accumulate too many revisions?

wp-folder

That means, others can easily know your installed themes and plugins, which is very dangerous and easily to hacked by hackers.

There are two ways to solve this problem. The first method is create an empty index.php file and put under the folder. The other method is edit your .htaccess file, add an entry “Options -Indexes” (withour quotes).

The second method is a more advance and secure method as you need to put index.php file in each folders if you use the first method.

What happen if you forgot your Wordpress admin account password? Do you need to delete the databse and recreate it?

Although you cannot recover your current admin’s password, but it is not neccessary to delete the database and recreate it. You can simply replace it with a new password. Here, i will show you a very simple method to replace the password.

First of all, open your favorite code editor, or simply Notepad if you don’t have any. Then, place these code into the file and save it as reset.php.

<?php
require('./wp-blog-header.php');

global $wpdb;
$password = '12345';    //change this to your desired password.
$admin_login = 'admin';        //your Wordpress admin username.

$wpdb->query("UPDATE $wpdb->users SET user_pass = MD5('$password') WHERE user_login = '$admin_login'");
?>

You can replace the ‘12345‘ with your desired password and ‘admin’ with your admin account username. After that, upload the reset.php file to your Wordpress root folder.

Then, go to your browser and type “http://your-domain.com/reset.php“. Done! You can now login with your new admin password.

Note: Please delete the reset.php file from the server after you reset your password.

BlueMag, as the theme’s name, is a Magazine style Wordpress theme with a blue color scheme. There is a “featured category content slider” at the top of the page. By default, the theme will show three featured posts. You can modify it by opening the header.php and look for $featured_cat = ‘1′. Replace the ‘1′ with your featured category ID.

Below is the summary of features:-

  • Featured content slider (can easily turn off if you don’t want to use it).
  • 3 level menu.
  • Automatically insert post thumbnail, or manually using custom field.
  • Fast loading speed. No images are being used, unless the advertisement at your left sidebar and the feed icon.
  • 2 sidebars.
  • Grid based design.
  • Gravatar on comments.
  • Search Engine Optimized.
  • Work with Wordpress 2.6 and above.

Although BlueMag doesn’t require any plugin, but it comes support for WP-PageNavi. I had include a css file called “wp-pagenavi.css” under “library/css“, which you can customized your WP-PageNavi plugin.

This is to let people recommend the article to their friends. Adding such feature in other CMS are very easy, but how about add this features in a Wordpress blog?

There is a Wordpress plugin called WP-Email developed by Lester Chan, which add such feature to your Wordpress blog.

Before users can forward your article to their friends, they have to enter a verification code, which will greatly avoid spamming and will reduce your server usage also.

There are a lot of options which you can configure. For example, you can set your email template, SMTP options, and even a log file to keep track emails being sent by your users.

As a conclusion, this is a must have plugin if you seriously want to let your readers recommend your articles to their friends.
