My Wordpress Specs
Posted on 17th September 2008 by Brandi
I think it’s important to preface this whole “Are You Wordpressed?” thing with the exact “specs” I’m running. Most of these are common for any Wordpress Blog I set up, and have become quite comfortable with the plug-ins I use and the system I use.
So, without further ado, this is what I’ve got going on behind the scenes.
First off, we’ll start with theme. I was thinking what better, than to use a Wordpress-looking based theme. The theme I am using is Word Press’d by Blog2Life. For those who aren’t aware, this theme is based on what the admin/dashboard area of Wordpress looks like. Clean, simple, easy-to-use.
I am running Wordpress 2.6.1, which can be found HERE.
These are the plug-ins I have installed, and use these same ones on most every Wordpress blog I set up:
- Comment-Luv
- Popularity Contest (Also comes with the theme)
- Add-To-Any
- WP-Statpress
- Lighter Admin Drop Menus (Awesome Dashboard Plug-in. Rearranges the Dashboard for easier navigation)
- Google Sitemap Generator
- C-Forms
- WP Ajax Edit Comments (You’re welcome :P)
- Feedcount (A Feedburner plugin)
For advertising I have chosen Performancing Ads. It’s got a wonderful Interface, it’s easy-to-use and FREE! Check it out.
I will be using Feedburner for Email subscriptions, subscribe, subscribe! I have added gravatar functionality so we can see all your pretty faces when you comment. And last, but never least, I will add Entrecard, as a social-networking tool.
What do you think? Do you do things a lot different than I have done? Give me your comments.
(I will also be adding the related posts plugin. After I hunt it down.)
