I logged in today in my WP-Admin panel and saw that there is an upgrade available for wordpress 2.8. I was about to upgrade it manually as usual but then I stopped and thought about the plugins installed. Will the be compatible with WordPress 2.8.1 or not. That made me think about publishing this post. I may not be able to give you the complete list of compatible plug-ins but at least those I am using I will definitely check those. I will be installing a local copy of WordPress 2.8.1 and will check them one by one. I will be posting the list of plug-ins compatible with newly released WordPress 2.8.1 after I check them.

So stay tuned..

4. 6 WordPress Footer or Header Bar Plugins that you can use

After a lot of research I found out some plug-ins that could display random posts in text format only with some more limitations like; no pictures can be attached, no random display, no effects while displaying the posts. With the this wordpress technique you would basically be able to fulfill the following requirements.

• Display random posts in sidebar.
• Display posts with pictures of your choice
• Display posts with amazing jQuery effects.
• You can display n number of posts.
• Everything is customizable in WP-Admin panel.
• No touch of code required.
• Works with the newest version of WordPress 2.8.2

A Demo can be seen at the right hand side of this post. Alright, lets get started now.

Things required to get Random Rotating Posts in WordPress Sidebar:

• Any WordPress installed (Only checked with 2.8.2 though)
• Sponsor Slideshow Widget Plug-in
• Images of your choice to be displayed in the Slideshow.

I used it to display my random posts however It can be used for any other purpose. You just need to extend your creativity. Alright, so here’s what you need to get it working.

1. First of all install and activate Sponsor Slideshow Widget Plug-in.
2. Go to your Links section and create a new category called Random Posts.
   
3. Upload new media and copy location of the image that you have uploaded.
   
4. Now create links with your Posts and insert the images accordingly. I choose 300×300 px pictures as my sidebar width is 300. You need to choose images as per your sidebar width.
   
5. Select Random Posts from drop down in Slideshow Widget. Also make sure to select the width of the Slideshow widget as per your Siderbar widget. Do not use anything under title section as you don’t want it to be displayed as some category. Also check the order of the post. If you want them to be displayed randomly, you can select random or in order. The effect can also be selected. I selected random again as I like it to be different all the time.

That’s it. Now all you need to do is go to your home page and see the beutiful random posts without any file change. This is the simplest way to create this amazing Rotating Random Posts Widget in WordPress Sidebar.

While writing this post I am getting a really nice idea, may be you guys can try and let me know if that worked or not. You can add as many Slideshow widgets as you can. So create another category and add links to that category, may be with different size of the images and display them anywhere you want. It will definitely work with 2 column and 2 column themes. I am using vigilance Theme. Not checked with any other theme.

5. 6 WordPress Footer or Header Bar Plugins that you can use

Well I am still learning to use WordPress. Countless wordpress plug-ins checked and still installed in my Blog. Still not satisfied with the setup of my Blog. Though the theme seems to look good but at times its just plain. I need something useful and flashy things on my Blog. Things that when visitors see they just say “Wow !” Anyways lets get to the point. I was actually really tired of going in WP-Admin panel and posting the post from there. So I was looking for some tool which can do it from Desktop. And Voila look what I found. I have actually found a windows based free tool which can be used to blog directly from your desktop. The best thing is that it can be done while you are offline. So its really handy I must say. I don’t really have a mobile internet connection and I spend a lot of time travelling everyday, around 3-4 hours so it will really come handy in that. I am just checking how the post will look like. Basically I am just using the software and will give you the review of Live Writer once I have used it.

Till then Bye and I am really missing Google

5. 14 Must To Do after WordPress Installation

So lets get started. I am using Vigilance Theme. So I will be telling you the steps according to my theme but it should be 99% same in other themes as well. If you face any Challenge then please let me know through comment, I shall try to resolve every possible conflict for you.

First of all lets look at my 404 Page. Once you are done watching it, just click back button on your browser.

Alright, so did you see there was so much stuff for someone who has landed on an error message rather than just saying that whatever you were looking for just does not exist . So what all can you display on your 404 page.

Note : All changes will be done in your 404.php file which should ideally be in your theme root folder.

• How to display an Image :

Open 404.php find, remove everything from your 404.php and leave this only. This is how my 404.php file looked like before filling it up. You can actually do it in  WordPress Admin Panel as well under  Appearance>>Editor>>Your Theme and Select 404.php on the right hand side.

Warning : Please copy the whole code in a text file before you start the modification. Just to be on safer side, In case there is any accident

OK, Lets move on. Now after backing up your file delete everything and leave the code similar to the one below.

<?php get_header(); ?>

<div>

</div><!–end entry–>
</div><!–end content–>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

OK Now add this after

<img src=”location of your image file” alt=”error 404″ width=”500″ height=”667″ />

Check the height and width dimension as well basis your theme’s height and width.

• How to display Recent Posts :

Anywhere in the 404.php file copy the below code to display Recent Posts from your blog.

<h2>Recent Posts</h2>
<ul>
<?php
query_posts(‘posts_per_page=10‘);
if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<li><a href=”<?php the_permalink() ?>” title=”Permalink for : <?php the_title(); ?>”><?php the_title(); ?></a>
<?php endwhile; endif; ?>
</ul>

Change the number to whatever number of posts you want to be displayed in this code posts_per_page=10

• How to display Categories :

To display list of categories copy the code mentioned below.

<h2>Categories</h2>
<ul>
<?php wp_list_cats(‘sort_column=name’); ?>
</ul>

• How to display Tag Clouds :

To display list of categories copy the code mentioned below.

<h2>Tag Cloud</h2>
<?php wp_tag_cloud(‘smallest=8&largest=36&’); ?>

If you want to save your time then please copy and paste the code below. Its my 404.php file’s code. You can customize it according to your need. Don’t forget to upload the file and give location to image.

<?php get_header(); ?>
<div>

<img src=”http://www.revolutioners.com/wp-content/themes/vigilance/images/error-404.png” alt=”error 404″ width=”500″ height=”667″ />

<h2>Recent Posts</h2>
<ul>
<?php
query_posts(‘posts_per_page=10′);
if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<li><a href=”<?php the_permalink() ?>” title=”Permalink for : <?php the_title(); ?>”><?php the_title(); ?></a>
<?php endwhile; endif; ?>
</ul>

<h2>Categories</h2>
<ul>
<?php wp_list_cats(‘sort_column=name’); ?>
</ul>

<h2>Tag Cloud</h2>
<?php wp_tag_cloud(‘smallest=8&largest=36&’); ?>

</div><!–end entry–>
</div><!–end content–>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

Its been two years now that I have bought this domain and hosting. But if you see this blog it will look like I started blogging yesterday. That has been the problem with me.  I always tend to mess up with my setup, never thought how important it will be to keep posting and not to lose old posts. Anyways I don’t know these days I have got a really refreshing feeling about blogging. Earlier I used to think what should I blog about. I am a dexter. I can write about anything and everything. But Now after so many years searching on the internet and going to various websites, I have come to know what to blog actually. I mean I will give you guys some tips on choosing the topics to write on.  So lets start. I will not speak much, it will all just be about a sentence or word. Think about that word and start writing in your Blogs.

1. Is it worth reading that you are writing ? The most important point.
   
2. Has anyone posted it earlier, if yes then are you talking something unique ? Please post less but unique.
3. WIll it be useful to others ? Post something fruitful to others. Which saves money.
4. Do you know some uniqe tips and tricks ? Post them
5. Do you have a good sense of Humor ? Get that out.
6. Are you good at some Controversial topics ? Write about them
7. Do you believe in Ghosts ? if not then write about it. Write Paranormal topics
8. Do you religiously follow something ? like iPhone, Mac, Obama, Sex, Cars..  Blog about that
9. What are your Fears ? people are attracted to intriguing facts.
10. Become a Grandma and narrate a Story or recite your poetry.
11. Show off your technical/professional know how and help people. Start a forum.
12. Try writing something or anything which makes sense, First.
13. And last but not the least, will people come back after reading whatever you are writing.
14. Were you a part of some Event? Blog that.
15. Blog your Hobbies. Are you a photographer ? Setup your Flickr stream.
16. Ask others to post if you have some friends

Now you might be thinking why there are so less posts. I told you I messed up. And moreover I don’t have much time to write about. But I have lots of thoughts to Blog about and I promise to be regular this time around.

I have been trying to figure out the best Social Bookmarking plugins to be used on my blog. Now after 2-3 days research and checking n number of blogs, I have come to a conclusion that the below mentioned plugins are best in business. Highly recommended, especially the way described below.

1. SexyBookmarks

This is the first pugin that I am using and is the most attractive plugin available on the internet. The plus point is that it supports WordPress 2.8 as well. Though it does not support hell lot of  social bookmarking websites but whatever it supports is more than enough for you. If you want more then there is another one that I suggest you use which is …

2. Sociable

Now this plugin supports more than 80 Social Bookmarking websites. Its one of the most popular Social Bookmarking Plugin available at this moment.

I chose to use both of the plugins because one provides the uniqueness and sexyness on my blog and the other one provides the variety of  Social Bookmarking site support.

Imprtant : Now its really important that you configure both the plugins as suggested below to maximize their usage.

1. Only enable Sociable to be displayed on front page by unchecking everything and selecting “Front page of the blog” only as shown in the image below.

2. Now goto SexyBookmarks settings and select Posts Only from the drop down “Posts, pages, or the whole shebang?” Please refer to the image below for your reference.

By doing this we will have sociable displayed on the Home page like this

and when people open the post they will see the SexyBookmarks only and Sociable will not be displayed. Like this ..

Thats it ! you are done configuring the most intuitive and impressive Social Bookmarking plugins on your Blog. Please comment if you like my post.

Watch out the demo of the same on this blog.

FLIR is a one hell of a great plug-in if used wisely. Yeah its called facelift for wordpress and its quite right at its words. It can instantly boost your wordpress looks so amazingly. I mean its really cool. It lacks the demonstration of usage though. There are instructions available but not for noobs like me. They are very generic. Not specific to WordPress users.

So why am I writing about it. Yes, you got it. I am going to do some RnD on this as well and post some tutorials in some days, probably in the coming weekend. Yeah I remember about that post. I remember it and will deliver on that once I get time. I work man, so be patient. I can do this much only at this point of time. Now go and enjoy my other rubbish posts

Guys, I am really sorry for not writing much. Actually I’ve not been blogging infact. Is it just my stubborness to Blog or what ? Its like, I don’t know what to Blog but I wanna blog. I always wanted to do something for this world in Technology front and I don’t know how am I gonna do that. I am really not sure.

Anyways lets get to the point. I chose WordPress as my blogging script after alot of research. it is said to be the most used blogging script in this world. It would have been a hit if aliens also blogged.  I have been using WordPress for the last 8-9 months and still I am not really familiar with it. Well I must not say familiar because I have been able to post.. yeah thats correct. But I am not getting what I want. I want a really nice and beautiful blog. I mean it should look perfect. I am not a coder, just a part time copy paster so I look for tutorials on the Internet. I was using phpBB earlier. I used it for over 2-3 years. I was actually good at that. I have setup a really nice forum of my own but that is not used for anything. Just to show off.

Now the thing is that I want a really nice and good looking Blog. I mean the theme and widgets should be nice. There are really nice ideas in my mind to setup my blog but due to coding incompetency, I have not been able to materialise those ideas.

At this point in time I am looking for some cool tricks and hacks for a post. I want to a perfect reading page of a post. I mean including the social bookmarking, related posts, rss and email link stuff. I mean there are so many of them. Basically, for post footer. I have really seen some cool footer designs but I want to compile a list of hacks and plug-ins for a single shown post. I will let you know what I mean, if you don’t understand.

Wherever I’ve looked at for these tips and tricks on WordPress, they are all old.

Till the time I compile the list, Chao !
