How did I customize this blog template?

  • Removed the extended header
  • Removed and changed the extended footer
  • Made transparent the <blockquote> graphic
  • Added a <blockquote> specification to CSS
  • Added a <ul li> specification to CSS
  • Played with the header and footer graphics but only used the new footer.
  • Removed credits from the footer and created a separate page.

Playing with the header and footer graphics took the longest. I also did not like the placement of the entire page– so that took a little time to adjust. It took me about 2-3 hours to customize this template for my needs.

Do you have an existing template that needs tweaking? I am pretty good at stuff like this– send me a message.

I also have a great collection of templates and plugins. I do not charge for these templates. I charge to tweak the template to your specification or research time to find the perfect template for your needs. You already have one? Just the tweaking.

I found a WordPress spam comment plugin that seems to work– right out of the box. It is installed on this blog– see this link for a demo. See this link to read more or download. I found this plugin on this page.

Another popular spam plugin TrencaSpammers. My preliminary tests indicate TrencaSpammers only works with WordPress 1.5.

Instructions for installing Peter’s plugin are on his page and not within the zip file. Easy– create a new directory under wp-content/plugins/custom-anti-spam/ and then upload the 5 files that come with the package. Go into the WordPress Plugins tab and activate the plugin. That’s all. If problems occur, deactivate the plugin. Should not affect anything else.

Hosting-Q supports WordPress users. This blog was setup to test plugins and show clients various options in setting up a generic [default] WordPress blogging environment.

As many of you know– the official Hosting-Q blog has a custom template. Q’s Wire… the personal blog of Hosting-Q’s owner– is also a WordPress blog and uses a custom template.

The template used with this blog is the default template.
