WordPress Warning: WP-Super Cache Has A Crash

By Les Scammell, September 25, 2008 4:36 pm

If you are using WordPress with WP-Super Cache then update it straight away. It is a crash waiting to happen. The crash is forcing the blog to return a permission denied error. The only way to access your dashboard is by typing the URL in directly, unless your smart and you have your dashboard bookmarked.

A quick upgrade of the plugin and everything is working fine again.

Radical Blogs First Birthday – The Years Best Posts

By Les Scammell, September 14, 2008 4:35 pm

My Radical Blogs is heading towards its first birthday – I cannot believe it is nearly a year old already. When I look back at my early work I notice a big change to how I write compared to today. Over the next week or two I am going to spend a little time going over what has, and hasn’t, worked for me; what I have liked and disliked; which posts where popular; and which posts I though were good but failed to spark much in the way of comments.

Today’s review is a mix of the posts that proved popular by way of comment numbers, along with some of my favorite posts. It has been a strange year. I started off a little aimless, took aim with blog reviews which I enjoyed doing, but found most bloggers a little apathetic to them. From there I lost track, and a little focus, particularly when I started writing on other blogs. This has left me a little time poor. I think apathy is a double edged sword. Lack of reader numbers and comments leads to more apathy, the results being less post, poorer quality, and fewer readers.

I have plans to change all that from the beginning of next month having finally decided on the direction I intend to go. As readers, you will either appreciate it, or not. How does that song go – “It’s my blog, and I’ll write how want to” (to the tune of it’s my party – anyone remember it?).

My favorite posts, and some of yours – lets get to them – there were so many. I spend some time learning WordPress inside out and back to front. As I picked up tips and ways to improve my blog, I passed them on. One of the most visited was How to optimize your WordPress blogs for speed, a post that brought numerous comments. I regularly talk about plugins and what has or has not worked along with any workarounds if I find them. This post on Plugins By The Bucketload was extremely popular, at least for the links to everyone else :)

The most popular posts were the lists. People are right – we all love lists. The first one was a good one showing you how you could Forget Adsense – Here Are 140 Alternatives To Consider.  Another income related blog that brought some traffic was How I Quadrupled My Blog Income, I don’t know why, but visitors enjoyed it.

I also discovered interesting facts about making money online, for exampl, Your Tip N Run Visitors Are Costing You Adsense Dollars, a look at Google and how traffic affects Adsense.

Other list posts that were popular included 100+ Bookmarking Sites To Drive Your Traffic – or drive you crazy - it certainly drove me crazy. Directories can be great for backlinks and increased PageRank so I sourced Free Directories With PR4+ Ranking - enough to keep you going for a week.

That’s my brief roundup of posts from the last 12 months.

I have been looking at delicious.com. It has a feature where the pages you bookmark each day get sent through as an auto post on your blog. The post is how you see it below. You can then edit it to display what and how you want.

Interesting way to share what you find interesting with other readers.
