H1 Hack for WordPress Pages

WordPress H1 Hack -
This allows you to change the H1 tag of the page without affecting the page name, title, and menu title of the page.

This has most commonly been used in the page.php file of the WordPress themes only, but can certainly be applied to any page that you would like the ability to set the h1 tag (or some cases, if you prefer, the h2 tag). Remember, it is recommended to set the default theme h2 tags displaying the header of the pages to H1 for an SEO advantage.


WordPress Not Showing Backlinks Any More?

What’s with the new version of WordPress not showing your inbound links anymore? – Oh – actually, I see now that it is not just in the latest version,  but it’s been removed altogether from the admin control panel.

This is very odd… First they replaced Technorati in there with Google, and now they’ve removed altogether the ability to know instantly when someone links back to you.

That’s a shame, because I really like it! Perhaps it’s just a glitch and it will come back tomorrow?


The Big WordPress Ping List

Having a big ping list added to your WordPress blog is not going to make or break you, but the more exposure, the better, right?

At a recent presentation I gave about using WordPress, I was adding a slide about the ping list, and decided to count them. I was surprised to see that there were only 46, but that’s what I put in the slide.

Apparently, at some point over the last couple of dozen installations, I dropped off a batch from my list, and even my own blog was running short.


Edit Default Comment Invitation

One of the benefits of even having a blog is getting people to comment, because that adds more content and freshens your pages, known as UGC, or “User Generated Content”.

However, most people don’t even bother to update the default comment invitation lines that appear in their WordPress blog, because it’s just not something you think about.

If you scroll down below you’ll see that I’ve customized the comment message on this blog, and it’s really easy to do.

First, login to your WordPress admin, then go to presentation – theme editor.

Click on your single.php file over on the right.
