Temporary Service Outage

Our primary DNS provider went down approximately 90 minutes ago, which essentially disabled this website as well as our support centre. We received almost instant notification via a service we use to monitor our website uptime, and quickly determined that our main DNS provider was experiencing a large issue. As such, we’ve transferred our domains to a new provider, one that will hopefully provide additional redundancy in the future.

DNS is still propagating, but services are already online again in most of North America. While the support centre was offline during this period of time, no aspect of typical WPtouch Pro usage depends on access to our servers, so customer sites would have been unaffected.

We apologize for the disruption in service, and will hopefully have everything restored shortly.

The Periodic Table of WordPress Plugins

Here’s an easy way to browse WordPress’ most popular plugins. Swiss WordPress site, WordPress Magazin has arranged the top 108 plugins in an interactive Periodic Table of WordPress Plugins. The handy table lists each plugin’s current version and includes links to plugin pages in the WordPress directory, as well as developer contact info.

Plugins are ranked by number of downloads (WPtouch is currently in position 9 with 3,879,293 downloads and an element symbol of ‘To’). There’s even a poster available in case you’re looking for something to hang on your wall that will remove all doubt that you are, in fact, the geekiest person in the office.

WordCamp Victoria 2013 Recap

WordCamp Victoria 2013

 

I consider myself lucky to be able to kick-off my WordCamp agenda each year in Victoria, my current home town. Of the various WordCamp events I attend annually, it’s always the one I look forward to the most.

As with past years’ events, WordCamp Victoria 2013 didn’t disappoint. WordPress leader, Morten Rand-Hendriksen, entertained and engaged the audience with his 50 minute keynote address titled, ‘Why WordPress’. Rand-Hendricksen’s recipe for making this simple and familiar topic work? Take the obligatory statistics and insights into the history of WordPress and mix with lessons in Norwegian culture, personal anecdotes and humour. Good times!

Other sessions I enjoyed included blogger Rebecca Bollwitt’s Picking Perfect Pics session and Al Davis‘ Deconstructing the Loop presentation–which somehow managed to provide what I felt was the best learning experience of the event even though it took place during the its-almost-time-for-the-after-party 4pm time slot.

WordCamp Victoria 2013 organizers are obviously an experienced bunch who know how to pull off a well run event. Registration went smoothly and the lineups were short, access to wi-fi didn’t appear to be an issue, lunch was on time and nobody’s special dietary concerns were overlooked. Kudos to the WordCamp Victoria organizing team on a job well done!

See you at WordCamp Victoria 2014!
