WordPress数据库在byethost空间上的备份

今天同样身为wp和byethost使用者的para来访,提到利用wp-db-backup插件虽能定时备份数据库,但不能将备份发送到自己的邮箱。

问题可能在于,wp-db-backup发送邮件是利用SMTP访问byethost提供的admin邮箱,然后从admin邮箱将备份发送到在插件中指定的接收邮箱;而byethost提供的邮箱帐户是没有SMTP服务的。所以备份本身可以进行,但是到了发送邮件这一步失败。

解决办法:安装Configure SMTP这个插件配置上自己的支持SMTP的邮箱,如gmail邮箱。这个邮箱可以就是接收备份数据的邮箱,相当于自己给自己发信。在Configure SMTP的基本配置里,选上“Send e-mail via GMail?“这一项,然后在后面的“STMP username”和“SMTP passwd”总填上发信邮箱帐号和密码即可。保存后可以用Configure SMTP插件的测试功能发信试验一下。

用数学题抵御spam-Math Comment Spam应用

Althoug Akismet can capture spams successfully, it can not stop spams going into your database. Keeping spams out of the door is necessary, especially when a robot is disturbing you. Yesterday some robots became interested in my blog and nearly 50 spams were left by them:

小窝自上线以来在诸位朋友们的关注下安稳健康的成长,一直无事。不想4.24日却遭遇到黑暗的一天。不知道招惹了哪个human或是非human了,一天竟然收到近50条机器人的垃圾留言,让我受“宠”若惊。虽然被Akismet成功关进小黑屋,没有在页面上显示,但实在让人不爽,且浪费主机有限的资源。而且要是每天如此,则要经常进后台清空垃圾留言,不可忍!下面是垃圾留言的统计和机器人留言样本。可以看出,机器人很聪明,网址和邮箱都符合格式,所以轻而易举就提交成功了。

WP一款强大的标签管理插件-Simple Tags

I was so excited to find this plugin today. In deed, you will find how powerful Simple Tags is once you begin to dig out its features. Although there is a plenty of plugins for WP, most of them are for one special purpose. Therefore, one may need to install dozens of plugins for prefect experience. A plugin which is simple but can help us realizing multiple purposes is wonderful, and Simple Tags is such a one. “This is THE perfect tool to manage perfeclty your WP 2.8 and 2.9 tags”, recommended by the author. It is really so.

今天很兴奋的发现了Simple Tags这款插件。尽管WP有无以计数的插件,但很多都只是针对特定的功能。所以为了得到完美的体验也许要装上几打的软件~。因而,一款简单但是能实现多重功能的插件将让人不得不爱,Simple Tags正是这样一款插件。“这是一款完美管理你的WP标签的完美插件”,作者一点也不谦虚。或许和众多的插件比起来,它确实如此。

WordPress显示最新评论的插件Wizzart – Recent Comments

I had tried some plugins on showing the recent comments and found that “Wizzart – Recent Comments” is very convient. It has the following features:

  • can show visitor’s gravator
  • can show the title of post which was commented on
  • can show the excerpt of  comment
  • the truncation of  Chinese sentences works well

At last, I chose to use this plugin, although I had installed lots of plugins.

尝试了些显示最近评论的插件,发现Wizzart – Recent Comments比较好用:

  • 有评论者头像
  • 没有指向评论者的链接
  • 可以显示被评论的文章标题
  • 有评论预览,中文截断没有乱码

于是我采用了这款插件,虽然已经用了不少插件

wordpress有用的插件

wordpress之所以强大,很大程度上归功于无数wp爱好者贡献的各种各样的插件。这些插件确实可以轻易帮我们实现想要的功能。但是插件多了,后台要更新一个页面将会耗费更多的资源,减慢速度。因此,安装插件,务必讲求必要。一些简单的功能如留言板、当前位置导航等,可以通过修改模板代码实现,就尽量不要用插件了。话虽如此,可是一不小心,今天发现我的插件使用数量已经到10。这些插件基本上是网上推荐的热门插件,因此展示出来供参考和讨论。但是我想现在已经足够,以后专心博文,勿惹插件。因为插件是无尽的,但是生命是有限的~
One reason why WordPress (WP) is so powerful is that there is a lot of plugins contributed by WP lovers. These widgets can help realizing functions we want easily. However, the more the number of  plugins used, the longer the time cost when refreshing a page. Therefore, one should choose the most appropriate and useful plugins. Even so, the number of plugins used by this website reaches 10 now. These plugins are popular and widely recommended on the Internet. Now I show them here for reference. However, I have decided to focus on blog writing rather than finding and installing plugins from now on. Because the pool of plugins is nearly infinitely huge but one person’s life is finite~
