Setting up wordpress

Since I’m running through the wordpress install again, I figured I’d take Marc’s advice and ‘blog my changes’.

• Plugins:

  • Ultimate tag warrior

  • feedburner

  • related posts

  • seo title tag

  • sitemap

  • widgets

  • Tarski links widget

  • Popularity Contest (disable visible rankings for external viewers)

• Tarski theme:

  • Edit footer.php to remove the recent entries section and lower sidebar.

  • Edit sidebar.php to always show the “Main Sidebar” widget thing, and only show the “Widget Footer” one for the front page, to make the sidebar shorter for individual posts.

  • Edit header.php, replacing the standard title call with the SEO title tag.

  • Edit loop.php to display the related entries in the content block.
