  • WordPress 5.0 Survival Kit

    WordPress 5.0 – Codename Bebo (for Cuban pianist Bebo Valdés) was released a day before yesterday. With many changes in WordPress Core, New Editor – Gutenberg replaced the Old classic TinyMCE Editor, which is an excellent move towards easy editing.

    Yesterday I upgraded my websites and Clients website to WP 5.0. With No Hassle, everything seems working fine to me. But I found little distress in Users about change in Interface, which is widespread resistance to change behaviour. Also saw some developers spreading rumours about Gutenberg is going to break your website. So here’s my Survival Kit for those who feel they can’t upgrade to 5.0.

    Following methods are for your Safely transition to WordPress 5.0

    1. Install a Classic Editor Plugin

    This one brings back the TinyMCE editor to your Latest Version of WordPress.

    2. Update the WordPress Settings to use classic Editor and don’t allow any of your user to switch to Gutenberg. Settings is available in Dashboard Left Menu > Settings Section > Writing.

    3. Install another Plugin: Fatal Error Notify

    This one will Notify you if you have any Errors in your website. So once you update to 5.0, this plugin will keep track of upcoming Errors. Don’t Forget to enter your mail id in this Plugins notification section.

    WordPress Releases are not just about features, and it comes with many security and bug fixes if you are one of those, who are not upgrading to WordPress 5.0 with fear that Gutenberg is going to break your site. You are keeping yourself vulnerable.

    With above three things you can continue your WP Journey without worry. Let your developer think about what mess he has developed that is not compatible with Latest release.

    Happy WordPressing 🙂

  • Clean Up time

    This is time  to say bye to year 2008. And count up remaining in Dasvidaniya Style. Long road to go yet, just checked my Phpmyadmin for regular backup after a long time. the Backup was around 31 MB !! Confused ?? I was too. Most of memory was consumed by Statpress plugin and few other plugins that i used some months back.

    Deletion of those plug-in, doesn’t delete there tables from database, so the garbage was still there. just cleaned those old tables. saved my lots of memory.

    Heres a little SQL trick I found from Devils Workshop , to clean up the revised  versions of the post we publishes. Little change in the SQL Command from me as given SQL command was giving error.

    DELETE FROM `wp_posts`WHERE `post_type` LIKE ‘revision’;

    Now my Database is just 1.5 MB, Good to hear (Not only for my server but also for speed of blog access.)
