ramblings

Notice this in Cambridge today – looks like a wee fail to me (there was a few more than the two bikes in the picture along the wall outside the college)

“Please do not lean cycles against this wall”

Notes on how to secure wordpress 2.7.1 (this is all pretty well documented, but I ran into a couple of dohs!)

o Remove the default admin user
o Create a user you want to login as
o Login as this new user
o Remove the ‘admin’ user – assign all posts to new user

o Force all admin features via HTTPS, edit wp-config.php

define('FORCE_SSL_ADMIN', true);

o Force logins via SSL, edit wp-config.php

define('FORCE_SSL_LOGIN', true);

Things I ran into was a cut and paste error inserting those annoying smart quotes, but once I did that everything’s golden.

OMG (and other leet things), textmate has built in just about everything, ok probably faster using a real web browser to post a blog, but I’ll have to see how useful the svn and SQL bundles are.
