Change Or Add A WordPress Header Image

Changing or adding a new header image to a WordPress theme is one of the first things most people want to do to change the look of their WordPress blog. Changing a WordPress header image is a little easier than adding one to a theme that has none. Since all themes are coded differently its hard to explain exactly how to do this for each one, but here are the basics.


Make Your WordPress Blog More Readable

We all have heard the statement “content is king”, while that is very true, how you present that content is very important too. Making the content more readable to a wider audience can work wonders with the amount of traffic you get and keep on your WordPress blog.


Customize WordPress Header Navigation Bar

Adding too many pages to a WordPress blog that has a navigation bar in the header can really make your Wordpress blog a mess. There are options to control what pages are shown in the navigation bar and even a way to add external links.


WordPress Plugins How Many Are Too Many

How many WordPress Plugins should I be using?

If you spend any time at all on blogging related forums this question comes up quite often. Just as often as the question comes up so to are the various different answers. After just going through a major headache of a nightmarish WordPress upgrade for a client I have came up with my own opinion on the subject.


WordPress 2.7 Dashboard Changes

There are some big changes coming in WordPress version 2.7. One of the biggest changes I noticed so far, is the look and arrangement of the dashboard. There is also the inclusion of few new features like automatic upgrades and the QuickPress feature on the main WordPress dashboard screen.


Where To Find Free WordPress Themes

WordPress is arguably the most popular self-hosted blogging platform available today and with that comes a big following of gifted WordPress theme and plugin coders. There are thousands of free WordPress themes available for download and use.

Why WordPress Categories Are Not Showing

So you setup a nice new WordPress blog and you have big plans for all the different things you want to blog about. So you go into the WordPress dashboard and start adding categories, you may even add subcategories into parent categories. After all your work you check upt the front side of the blog but… where are all the categories?


Keep WordPress Plugins Up To Date

Keeping your WordPress blog up to date cam seem like a never ending task, especially if you use a lot of plugins. It seems like WordPress is coming out with incremental updates almost every week anymore, with that comes plugin updates to keep up with changes. The good news is that WordPress now has built-in automatic plugin upgrades.
