Since I'm still jazzed about my recent adventures in WP hacking, over at Lifehacker this morning I wrote up a piece on how to make WordPress yours with a few of my picks for best plug-ins and advice for customizing your theme.

Thank you so much Gina! Your post on Lifehacker will save me many precious hours of my life now that I don’t have to figure out all of this myself.

Keep up the good work. BTW, Smarterware’s new look is gorgeous.

Thanks for another great post. Keep up the good work here and on TWiG!

I’d be interested to hear about your experiences allowing users to register via FB connect / OpenID.

I have a blog with a couple of thousand subscribers and I’d love to have people register to encourage more of a community… but I’m concerned about the potential security and management pitfalls.

Thanks for this Gina, I just do a couple minor family-oriented blogs right now, but plan on going “big time” with a couple commercial blogs soon. This story is top-notch, just like all your others!

I agree the redesign looks great!

I love this post! Thanks for the quality tips. They would have helped a lot when I was figuring out my first WordPress installation, but I think they’ll help more now that I’m trying to monkey with it.
