Wordpress plugins update 2

I oftenly change the Wordpress plugins i use and try different ones. It’s that time again to tell you what plugins i’ve currently got activated and which ones i’ve got rid of i previously had.

The current list stands like this:-

• Akismet
• All in One SEO Pack (i’ve had to update this a number of times in the past two weeks)
• cforms II
• FeedBurner FeedSmith
• Google Analytics for WordPress
• Google XML Sitemaps
• Gregarious
• Lightbox 2 Plugin
• MaxBlogPress Ping Optimizer
• Tag Suggest Thing
• Wordpress Video Plugin

Plugins i’ve got rid of:-

• SH-Autolink
• Ultimate Plugins Smart Update Pinger
• WPvideo
• Enhanced WP-ContactForm

Why did i get rid of the above plugins?

Quite simply because they either broke or i found a better plugin.

SH-Autolink – I thought this plugin was a great idea, but to be honest, i never used so i had no reason to have it installed because i choose and link my own words to the specific sites.

Ultimate Plugins Smart Update Pinger - I changed this for the MaxBlogPress Ping Optimizer because it broke. I think it broke when i installed Google XML Sitemaps. Unless the author updates, i won’t be using this plugin.

WPvideo – I embed Gametrailers.com videos to some of my gaming post and this plugin couldn’t do this for me. Wordpress Video Plugin does this for me and can also embed videos from alot of other sources too.

Enhanced WP-ContactForm – I liked this plugin, it did exactly what i wanted, but when i discovered cform II i couldn’t resist not to use it. It’s the best contact form plugin you could wish for, you can customize it in everyway.

So there you go, my plugins update.
