WP Plugins
Also known as extensions, are used to extend WordPress functionality and give your site more oomph. In this article, I will list a few basic plugins that will improve your WordPress in, well, basic ways.
First up is the Bad Behaviour plug-in by Michael Hampton, which blocks automated spam. It is at heart an anti-spam program that uses a different way of tackling the problem, which is to scrutinise the messenger and delivery way of a message, instead of looking at the message itself. Interestingly, almost all comment spam are delivered by automated bots; so if you use this plug-in, you would be virtually free from comment spam!
Have you ever gotten frustrated that the search capability of your WP is limited to the boundaries of your articles? Download the Search Everything plugin! Dan Cameron and other contributors have come up with a plugin that extends WP’ search capability to pages, tags, excerpts, comments, etc. Best of all, you can adjust the defaults and get a tailored search, just by clicking a few check boxes.
