WordPress Plugins
I currently have 35 plugins activated on my site.Hi! Are you a new or recent visitor to my blog? I hope you stick around and have a bit of a read. To make it easier to keep up to date with new content, please subscribe to my RSS feed. Of course, feedback is always appreciated and leaving a comment is a great way for me to come and check out your site.
Yes… I know that’s a lot but I like them! It’s the best thing about WordPress and other (free, community driven) Open Source programs - customising to your little heart’s content.
So why am I listing them here? Well, sometimes you visit a blog and you love the way they have laid something out or you love a special feature that is a part of the blog but you have no idea how to do the same sort of thing on your own blog. Now, if you see something you like here you can go ahead and click to download or get further info about any of these plugins. Yes, they are all available for free. How good is that?
