How to remove post category and tags from page with Genesis Framework

Posted on January 5, 2013

genesis-framework-logoIf your WordPress blog was built using the Genesis Framework (and in my opinion it should be!), you might be wondering how to remove the Category and Tag post meta info from the home page and individual post pages. As with most everything else, Genesis makes doing so quite easy. Here’s how:

1 – Open your child theme’s functions.php file in your favorite code editor.

2 – Add this snippet of code at the bottom:

/** Remove the post meta function */
remove_action( ‘genesis_after_post_content’, ‘genesis_post_meta’ );

3 – Save the file and upload it to your server.

You’re done! Now you won’t see the category or tag information on either the home page or the individual post pages of your blog.

Bitdefender Antivirus is now available for free

Posted on January 4, 2013

bitdefender-logoBitdefender consistently ranks (and tests) as one of the best antivirus programs on the market. Now, for the first time ever the company has released a free version of their award winning software.

The antivirus software universe is always expanding and a number of the big-name players have offered free versions for quite some time. I guess Bitdefender finally decided the time was right to offer one of their own.

If you want to download Bitdefender and give it a try you’ll find it at www.bitdefender.com/solutions/free.html.

How to automatically start up Firefox in Private Browsing mode

Posted on January 4, 2013

firefox-logoIf you value your online privacy above all else then you’ll probably enjoy using Firefox’s Private Browsing mode.

Private Browsing prevents Firefox from saving any of your Internet history in its log files which in turns makes it difficult from a third party to see what you’re been doing on the Internet.

Most people who use Private Browsing simply clicking the “Start Private Browsing” option on the main Firefox menu, but this only turns on Private Browsing for the current session only. But there is a simple way to instruct Firefox to turn on Private Browsing automatically every time the program is started. Here’s how: [Read more…]

New warning message in WordPress 3.5 makes some blogs appear to be broken

Posted on January 3, 2013

wordpress-logoWhen WordPress released version 3.5 in December 2012 they included a brand new warning message about a possible security hole due to the way some plugins are written. If you recently upgraded your WordPress installation to version 3.5, you might be seeing a message similar to this at the bottom of every page:

“Warning: Missing argument 2 for wpdb::prepare(), called in /home/content/52/8331652/html/wp-content/themes/chateau-2.0/functions.php on line 91 and defined in /home/content/52/8331652/html/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 990”

If so, don’t worry, your blog is perfectly fine. It isn’t broken. That is just a warning message, not an error message. Removing the warning message is easy. Just edit your wp-config.php file (make a backup copy of the file first though in case something goes wrong) and add this line to turn off error display on your blog:

@ini_set(‘display_errors’, 0);

Upload the edited wp-config.php file to your server and you’ll be good to go!

 

How to enable HTTPS secure browsing on Facebook

Posted on January 2, 2013

facebookHackers, crooks and busybodies are always on the prowl for sensitive information on unsuspecting Facebook users, and one of their favorite hangouts is at venues that offer free, unsecured Wi-Fi service such as restaurants, airports and libraries. And if you have an unsecured wireless router in use inside your home (not recommended!) they can even steal your info while sitting in your driveway!

You can protect yourself and your Facebook account from hackers, thieves and other scoundrels by securing your account using HTTPS encryption. Here’s how to turn it on: [Read more…]
