First of all, “WordPress SEO” (read more here) by Joost de Valk is FAR superior than than “All in One SEO“, it also does the XML sitemap and the SEO (better than all in one). In fact, the SEO is done in a better and more intuitive way with multi-step recommendations.

As for the “AddThis Social Bookmarking Widget“, delete this. It’s pretty terrible because of the JavaScript loading times and the dependency on that JavaScript to be loaded. In my opinion, install WordPress.com’s “JetPack” and put their share widget in there (it’s way better and coming from a better and faster download source).

Can’t beat “Flagrant Disregard’s Feedburner Plugin“, you should be using this.

Must have plugins

1. Google Analyticator
2. WordPress SEO
3. JetPack
4. Flagrant Disregard’s Feedburner Plugin

TL;DR (summary)

Less plugins are good, because:

1. less to update
2. less to debug
3. less to manage
4. easier to install again on other WP sites

Installing JetPack will save you a lot of time in the future as Automattic are going to eventually be adding all the good functionality, availability and extensibility of the plugins at WordPress.com.

• smallest – Use 8 point font-size when displaying the tag with lowest count value
• largest – Use 22 point font-size when displaying the tag with highest count value
• unit – Describes ‘pt’ (point) as the font-size unit for the smallest and largest values
• number – Display at most 45 tags
• format – Displays the tags in flat (separated by whitespace) style
• orderby – Order the tags by name
• order – Sort the tags in ASCENDING fashion
• exclude – Exclude no tags
• include – Include all tags

My only problem with this is that if you use the sidebar widget you can’t pass any parameters. Doh, previously I coded it into a php exec sidebar before the final release of 2.3 but now I used the widget, why not.

The long and short of it is that the widget inclusion needs to have a menu allowing you to enter some parameters. that’s kinda the point of this post, how are you all liking version 2.3?

Da da da da daaaaa, I’m lovin’ it. McLovin it even.

More about the wp_tag_cloud function here from the official WordPress website.

Let me know if anyone knows how to fix this, I saw an article that discusses how WordPress and UTW shares a similar function name and thus produces 404′s. I could fix it because it means I only have to rename all the functions in the plugin and widgets that use it but I’d rather wait for the official fix because I like to tweak my plugins :)

Anyway, I started writing this on thursday and UTW is installed, yay! :)

Carlo,

We are aware of this problem but unfortunatley don’t yet have a fix for
it. We have the z-index pretty high to deal with most of these problems
but Flash is what causes this problem in particular.

Sorry I can’t be of more help.

Trying to make a comment look like they care :( When really the are posting a link to porn.

I’ve tried to deleting the files but no luck there. I renamed the folder and we’ll see how it goes from there. I’ve contacted the guy who made the plugin and we’ll see how it goes from there, I’m very tired and very disappointed :

As it turns out, it wasn’t the plugin – just some tards writingto unsecured directories. My fault and they are jerks.
