Previously, I briefly illustrated how using a home.php file can allow you to build a custom layout to your WordPress blog’s home page. However, I didn’t really document it well enough for the casual WP user to implement by himself. For the unknowing of my readers, here is a guide to using my (really Rudd-O’s) […]

Recently, I’ve been observing a new form of spam on my blog. It is coming in the form of vague registrations, with email addresses including Russian domains and strange user IDs. For now, it’s not too bad, so I won’t take serious action. If things do heat up, I’ll look into ways to effectively block […]

Although I do have the absolutely wonderful and I-can’t live-without-it Askimet plugin installed here, I still look through the messages it catches every few days. What’s worse than having to waste time even looking at them is trying to ignore what’s in them. Various prescription drugs (I’m keeping things G-rated over here), and links to what I will leave as explicit videos litter the Askimet Spam page litter my screen […]

Browsing a gallery of 700 something themes was not easy or particularly exciting work, but that’s what it took to give my blog a facelift after almost a year with one theme. I spent some time browsing the gallery at Themebot.com, and came across a nice theme. Actually, I didn’t find this one at Themebot, […]
