Building on the discussion from “Do You Really Need All Of Those Plugins?” I’d love to ask what is the one plugin that your blog can’t live without? There are many plugins out there for WordPress, and many of us use an excessive number of them, but there has to be one that you favor above them all. To start of the discussion, I’ll say Akismet. That may sounds like a cop-out, since it comes with every copy of WordPress, but without it I’d still be cleaning out the 39,744 spam comments that we’ve received so far this week. So, what’s your favorite plugin?

WordPress, WordPress Plugins

There has been some interesting discussion on how many plugins you should use on your WordPress blog, and whether that number contributes to any problems along the way. The fact of the matter is, it’s really hard to say. In most situations, using an excessive amount of plugins won’t cause any problems, but plugins use memory when they run, and shared hosting provider love to limit the memory that you can consume at any given moment. If you’re running into memory errors, there are a few things that you can try, but you should probably consider using less plugins or moving to a better host. Outside of hosting limitations, the number of plugins doesn’t play much of a role. We use 36 plugins here, and I have worked on a blog before that used 82, both without issue. If you’re running into other errors, that’s more than likely just one […]

bbpress, WordPress Plugins

bbPress 2.0 has been released. With BuddyPress 1.5 launching just a few hours earlier, this is a great day for major WordPress-extending plugins. That’s right, there’s no more complicated installation and integration instructions. bbPress is now a WordPress plugin, and it can easily integrate with Akismet and BuddyPress too. Simply by activating bbPress 2.0, any standard WordPress theme is suddenly capable of having support forums, user profiles, topic tags, and custom topic views. Your users are able to mark topics as favorites to read them later, and can subscribe to be notified via email to topic replies, so they never miss out on the conversation. If you’re currently using the old version of bbPress, this new version comes with a handy importer to get you started, and there are importers for other forum platforms planned for the future.
