Thread:Workspace talk:Parker/Plugins

Current plugins, and commentary:


 * Akismet - No problem.
 * All in One SEO - Shouldn't be a problem, but I am not going to activate it. I will leave that up to you.
 * Jetpack by WordPress.com - Shouldn't be a problem, but may require re-connecting.
 * NextGEN Gallery - I don't support this. At some point the plugin switched to using a standard plugin way of keeping files, but it can coexist with files outside the normal WordPress filesystem. At any rate, if I move over the files and database it may work, but that is the extent of what I will do with it.
 * W3 Total Cache - I also don't support this, at this level of support (FYI, it is kind of a big deal, so folks pay me more to make sure they don't nuke their site). You are only using the browser caching, though, so I think it might not be a problem. However, I wonder if that plugin doesn't counter the benefits of browser caching in the memory it uses. You will find out when you are maintaining your own server. ^_^
 * WP-Footnotes - No problem.
 * WP-Markdown - No problem.
 * WP Emphasis - No problem.
 * Yet Another Related Posts Plugin - Shouldn't be a problem, if I move over the database. Otherwise we may need to convert the relevant tables over to MyISAM. I recommend against using this plugin, so I will document that here. It tends to be a bottleneck, and I haven't found a premium host that will allow it. The appeal is mostly personal, since linking to very old information is by and large useless, and relevant information will be drawn upon with tags and categories, making it easy for a person to find it if they need. But that may in fact be a matter of opinion. ^_^

Okay, looking at those, I think I am going to need to do a full migration, and then configure it as a multisite. I am going to leave W3 Total Cache off, and let you configure it.
