Here are some of them I find (using WordPress from SVN, revision 8094):…

  • WordPress Upgrade: 1.5.2 to 2.5.1

    Yesterday, I helped my client to upgrade some of her WordPress-powered blogs. When I ugpraded WordPress — mine, friends’ or clients’, I found it very easy; and the process run smoothly.

  • TypePad AntiSpam Looks Great

    After having TypePad AntiSpam installed in my blog, I noticed that it works very well. I had more than 240 spams filtered by this plugin. I’m satisfied with the result.

  • Modifying WordPress custom database error connection page

    Reading what Derek Punsalan mentioned about custom error database connection page, his updated tutorial is very interesting. I mean, we (actually) can modify that error page into something better. In short, to have a custom page for database connection error page, just create a file called db-error.php and put it under your /wp-content/ directory. That’s…

  • Why no emoticons in this site?

    I am not a fan of emoticon. But, I am fine if I see smilies used in websites, blogs, or discussion forums.

    This month, a new mass transportation system started to operate in Jogjakarta. It’s Trans Jogja. When I heard the news, I tried to get as much information as possible. But, I was unlucky.
