kReese.net in 2010

January 18th, 2010 by Kristopher Reese

After spending a majority of the last few months of 2009 working on updating my site to make it easier to update, I finally caved in and decided to use Wordpress instead of programming my own site. It took me a while to cave in simply because of the enjoyment I get from programming my site. But by using Wordpress, I saved time with coding so that I can focus on schoolwork and content on the site. I look forward to finally getting more time to write on the blog rather than having to program new information.

Using Wordpress has its advantages! Here’s a list of plugins that I’ve used on this version of the site:

  1. Akismet (Spam) – created by Matt Mullenweg
  2. Clean-contact (Contact Form) – created by Monkey Tree Labs
  3. Delete-Revision (Revision Management) – created by gohsy
  4. EG-Attachements (Document Library) – created by Emmanuel GEORJON
  5. Google XML Sitemaps (Site Map Generator) – created by Arne Brachhold
  6. ICS Calendar (Events Calendar) – created by Daniel Olfelt
  7. Multi-level Navigation Plugin (Main Navigation) – created by PixoPoint Web Development / Ryan Hellyer
  8. Recent Posts – created by Nick Momrik
  9. Sticky Menu (Secondary Navigation) – created by ericdes
  10. WP-Cache (Page Caching) – created by Ricardo Galli Granada
  11. WP-DBManger (Database Management) – created by Lester ‘GaMerZ’ Chan
  12. WP-Syntax (Code Syntax Highlighting) – created by Ryan McGeary
  13. WP Photo Album (Photo Albums) – created by Rubin J. Kaplan

Despite this, there are a few plugins that I had to create myself.  This includes plugins for editing a Curriculum Vitae and creating document repositories.  The theme itself was created by me specifically for kReese.net.  As these plugins and themes become more stable, I will link to these through my website.

    Weird, in researching for sites related to web hosting and specifically prices on hosting linux plan, and your site came up on Yahoo.

    • Not sure what happened there. I used to have a blog posts on linux before I moved over to a new version of the site. But I didn’t have anything on web hosting. I guess Yahoo just took those old keywords and matched up the Linux. Ohh well, thanks for letting me know. I’ll have to take a look into what might have caused that mishap!
