Fixed Articles plugin for Wordpress

I am a big fan of the Articles plugin by Alex King. The plugin has sadly stopped working in the last couple of Wordpress versions. I have modified it to work with the current version (2.7), and you can download the modified version below.
You can see the articles plugin in action in my articles page. [...]

Wordpress 2.7 released

Wordpress 2.7 was recently released, and now even I have made the upgrade! If you follow my blog, you probably know that I just love Wordpress (even with the bugs in Safari), and with the 2.7 upgrade it has gotten even better!
The whole admin backend is completely rewritten to among other things make it faster [...]

Spam fighting using Bad Behaviour

Since I will be gone from the internet for a while, I need something to make the Akismet spam list smaller. Otherwise I will definitely miss something good.
I decided to try Bad Behaviour, which seems to be working. It will be running during the day and if it works as expected, it’s here to stay.

Upgraded to Wordpress 2.6

So I have just updated my blog to Wordpress 2.6, and it was a very easy transition. Since I’m tracking the Subversion tree, all I have to do is:
svn sw http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/tags/2.6/ .
More information on how to trach Wordpress using Subversion is available in their documentation.
Everything seems to be working except for is_human(), but since I’m using [...]

Wordpress 2.6 released – lots of new features

Wordpress 2.6 has just been released, bringing lots of new features and polish as usual. The following video from the Wordpress website will give you a tour on what has changed.

There have been reports on problems with the comment CAPTCHA used on this site, so I have switched it to an image based one. There were problems when using it together with WP Super Cache.
I am now trying out is_human(), so there might be some problems for a couple of hours, as well as some [...]

Updating Wordpress to 2.5

I am in the process of updating wordpress to 2.5, which might lead to some interesting errors or other strange things. Hopefully most things will go smoothly though.
It seems that it won’t display the static pages for some reason, but other things seems to be working fine.

Firefox takes the lead in interesting browser statistics

I extracted some interesting statistics from my website earlier. The website of course appeals to Linux users, which could explain the statistics.

I am very happy to see that the Firefox usage is over 70%. I would have liked to see some more Opera users, but 6% is actually not that bad, especially after the Opera [...]

Updated design for simplicity and compatibility

I changed the website theme and overall feel to a much simpler and easier to use design. It should also be rid of the nasty Opera bug that people are talking about. Additionally, I can finally upgrade to the latest Wordpress branch without everything breaking!
There are some new features in the background as well. Some [...]

I just want to mention Planet Ubuntu Users, which is a Planet with posts from lots of regular Ubuntu users like me and perhaps you.
All my posts having the ubuntu tag ends up there, so definitely check it out.
