In order to have the content display random in the TAG page, you need to add to tag.php before post loop the following code:

[php]<?php
$paged = (get_query_var(‘paged’)) ? get_query_var(‘paged’) : 1;
$current_tag = get_query_var( ‘tag’ );
$args = array(
‘orderby’ => ‘rand’,
‘tag’ => $current_tag,
‘paged’ => $paged,
);
query_posts($args);
?>[/php]

In order to have the content display random in the CATEGORY page, you need to add to category.php before post loop the following code:

[php]<?php
$paged = (get_query_var(‘paged’)) ? get_query_var(‘paged’) : 1;
$current_cat = get_query_var( ‘cat’ );

Contact Form 7 & Akismet

By Leave a Comment

no-spam-logoMaybe many of you do not know that you can secure your contact form page inc ase you use Contact Form 7 plugin.

It’s pretty simple and it takes only 5 minutes.

You need to have or install 2 plugins:

1) Akismet – download here

2) Really Simple Captcha – download here

Once installed Akismet (it can be already installed, because WordPress it’s already integrate this plugin in the main installation package) you need to configure it following the required steps.

Then install Really Simple Captcha. you do not need to configure anything here, just install it and activate it.

Once this both steps are made, you need to secure the contact for you already have it under Contact Form 7.

You need to add the following Akismet-related options into the appropriate fields in your form.

[php]akismet:author[/php]

Add this option to the field that accepts the name of the sender.

[php]akismet:author_email[/php]

Add this option to the field that accepts the email address of the sender.

[php]akismet:author_url[/php]

Add this option to the field that accepts the URL of the sender.

When at least one of those options are set (remember, it’s recommended to set all of the options for accurate judgment), Contact Form 7 will send Akismet all of the sender’s input and the information relating to the submitting activity. Akismet will then judge whether this submission is likely to be spam.

If Akismet judges the submission as spam, Contact Form 7 cancels the sending of mails and shows a message that says, “it failed to send the message.” You’ll see an orange border around the response message when it has been judged as spam.

Finally, to make sure it works, you can test it by sending “viagra-test-123″ as name of the sender. This test case will always be judged as spam.

Penguin 2.0 UPDATE

Penguin 2.0 UPDATE

“Penguin 2.0 UPDATE … it will be much more thorough and Penguin 1.0 andara more in depth and will have an impact larger than the original Penguin 1.0” Matt Cutts, he works for the group “Search Quality” by Google, which specializes in the optimization for search engines (SEO).
It ‘s very popular in the community because SEO does comply with the Guidelines for Webmaster and takes measures against spam and also encourages users to use a domain authority checker. And ‘he who impose terrible “Criminalization of Google” to selected websites.

Update Pinguin 2.0 fights spam and low quality backlinks, essentially allowing in only high quality links to retain a high SEO score.

The new version penguin you plan to use more sophisticated techniques to detect link spam in your backlink profile, so even if your site looks quite OK for Google at this time, it is better to run another full control before Penguin 2.0 comes .

– Use anchor text optimized too.
– Comes from adult sites or other websites bad neighborhood
– It comes from sites that are irrelevant to their domain of activity

REMOVE THE LINKS NO LONGER EXISTING

The search engines are not very quick to update their database of backlinks, which is why some backlinks that no longer exist in reality they are still in their indexes. So when you check the backlinks of your site according to Google, for example, you have some backlinks nonexistent. These links can not affect your site in Penguin update, but simply wasting our time on useless verification and analysis.

REMOVE THE LINKS TO WEBSITES YOUNG ( 7,000,000)

Remove / clean the pages where abiamo many backlink on the page (> 20)

Sort links by the IP domain, and removed sites with the same C class (the first 3 numbers of the IP address)

ELIMINATE DUPLICATE KEYWORD STUFFING AND CONTENT
