I have prepared an incremental update to WP-Members that will wrap up some unfinished business from 2.5.0:  [Read more…]

Struggling with consistency

By Chad Butler Leave a Comment

Well, I have had this blog for a number of years now.  And considering how much work has gone into it, I am happy with the results.  But I know that it can be far more successful than it has been.  I know that probably the biggest thing holding it back is my own level of consistency (or lack thereof).

So, I will commit to being more consistent in my focus on this project.  They say it takes 28 days (or 30, depending on who you talk to) to develop a new habit.  So for the next 28 days, I will post every day.  And I won’t post worthless information just for the sake of posting.  My biggest challenge when posting has been weeding through the stack of possibilities, then losing focus and I end up not posting anything.

I have wanted to redesign the site, so I’ll try to do that but only in so far as it doesn’t interfere with posting consistent relevant content.

This would be a good time to plug Darren Rowse.  If you don’t have his 31 Days to Build a Better Blog, then you need to get it.  I got it, even after years of blogging and found a lot of useful information.

Incidentally, Darren has a new ebook out, ProBlogger’s Guide to Your First Week of Blogging.  I don’t have it (yet) and I don’t usually make recommendations on products that I have not personally reviewed, but if his previous material is any indication of the quality of content, I would say that it’s worth picking up a copy.

[Update: I have purchased a copy of ProBlogger’s Guide to Your First Week of Blogging and am working on a review.]

Upgrades always seem to go like this…

By Chad Butler 9 Comments

As I mentioned earlier, WP-Members has gained in complexity which makes releasing upgrades more complicated.  Case in point – I have realized that the toggle to force a settings override was left on (I was debugging checkbox support at the end of testing – a requested feature addition).

About the first 225 downloads were affected.  I corrected it 4/13/2011 around 9:10 US Central Time.

If you updated before that, you may want to double check your settings.  (If you use the default install settings, you may not even notice.)

To correct this without redownloading/reinstalling, edit $chk_force in wp-members-install.php to be:

$chk_force = false;
