New wordpress Tutorial: 10 classic Wordpress plug-ins recommended

I have been playing wordpress for more than half a year, and there are many plug-ins and templates in the middle. Today I will share with you ten classic wordpress plug-ins, it is very helpful for SEO, security, and speed of the website. At the same time, a new user who is not familiar with wordpress has a headache in Plug-in selection, because he does not have a list of plug-ins in the background like zblog, all Chinese instructions are clear at a glance, and wordpress plug-ins are tens of thousands and are basically in English, so it is difficult for new users to get started. This article is to help new users with less detours in Plug-ins selection.

　I. Baidu Sitemap Generator Baidu map Builder

The work of domestic Wordpress player Liu Cheng is quite practical. The author has considered a lot for us. There are many parameters in the plug-in configuration interface for us to choose from. After the article is published, the sitemap file will be automatically updated. Manual update is not required. Generate two map files, an XML: http://www.her123.com/sitemap_baidu.xml, an HTML: http://www.her123.com/sitemap.html, html page browsing articles are also more intuitive. It has a good effect on search engine optimization.

　2. Google XML Sitemaps Google's XML Map

I used two map generation plug-ins on my website. One of Baidu and the other is Google. They do not conflict with each other and each has its own advantages. Google XML map builder and plug-in configuration are also intuitive and easy to customize. You can also automatically update a map. The generated address is: http://www.her123.com/sitemap.xml, the Sitemap address that I used as the Google website administrator tool.

　Iii. No Self Pings plug-ins to avoid mutual Ping between internal pages of the website

This plug-in solves the issue of keeping Trackback records when documents in the station reference each other. You need to use this No Self ping plug-in, which can disable this automatic comment generation function. No Self Pings is very convenient to use. For installation, you only need to upload it to the WordPress plugins directory and enable it on the Management page without any additional settings.

　4. Optimize DB optimizes the MySQL database in the WordPress background

As MySQL is used, tables that contain BLOB and VARCHAR bytes will become redundant. Because these fields have different lengths, they occupy different sizes of space when inserting, updating, or deleting records, the record will become fragments and leave free space. Just like a disk with fragments, it will reduce performance and need to be sorted out, so it needs to be optimized. This plug-in is easy to install. Upload and activate the plug-in. After activation, You can Optimize the MySQL DATA table in the WordPress background> Tools => Optimize DB.

　V. WordPress Database Backup plug-in

This plug-in can help us save time on backing up data. Previously, I had to log on to phpmyadmin to back up blog data and export the backup data, which is often difficult to back up, if you do not need to back up frequently, you will be worried about the special circumstances you may encounter. The restored backup will be old. However, it is much easier to use WordPress Database Backup. WordPress Database Backup, which allows you to easily back up your wordpress Database, it can also back up other tables in the Database, for example, if multiple wordpress or other programs are installed in your Database, you can back up the data through WordPress Database Backup. WordPress Database Backup also supports regular Backup, after the backup is complete, it will be automatically sent to your mailbox. I used this plug-in to back up data twice a day. If there is any problem, the restored backup would be within 12 hours, and the loss should be minimized as much as possible.

　　6. WordPress Related Posts log plug-ins

WordPress 2.3 has built-in Tag support. Because the MySQL database used by WordPress does not support Chinese word segmentation by default, the best way to generate related logs in Chinese is through Tag. The most basic function of WordPress Related Posts Plugin is to generate a list of Related logs based on the log tag relevance and add the list of Related logs to the Feed.

　VII. WP-Thumbnails thumbnail plug-in

This is why many people choose worpdress. This is because they are very good at image processing. This is what this WP-Thumbnails thumbnail plug-in does, you can call various types of thumbnails on the homepage, article page, and category page, such as the article thumbnail, latest thumbnail, and random thumbnail. The thumbnail size can be set as needed. Plug-ins are precisely cropped and never distorted.

　8. CosHtmlCache static plug-in

Worpdress supports pseudo-static operations, but if the traffic is too large, the database will have to handle a large amount of traffic. At this time, the CosHtmlCache static plug-in is on the stage. It can generate static html files for the two most visited pages on the home page and Article Page, greatly improving the webpage loading speed and reducing the database pressure.

　9. Nice Trailingslashit web site unified plug-in

When we set the pseudo-static state, we usually set the article address to the suffix of the .html type. In this case, when we open the category directory or the worpdress independent page, we will find that there is no "/" behind the URL, seo is recommended to add "/" to the directory and main domain name. This plug-in can help us add "/" to the directories and independent pages when setting the document urlsuffix to .html to form a unified website format.

　10. WP-PostViews document statistics plug-in.

Many friends need to know how many times their articles have been browsed. This plug-in can count the number of articles browsed. However, it does not work when we use CosHtmlCache. For this issue, the domestic famous IT blog moonlight blog once provided a simplified version of WP-PostViews, using js to call articles for statistics. If you need it, go to the moonlight blog.

You will ask if you will feel slow when using so many plug-ins. In fact, many plug-ins have no impact on front-end browsing. For example, if you have installed the CosHtmlcache plug-in like our Baidu Google map builder and database compression and backup, you actually access static files when browsing the homepage and article pages, the speed is only dependent on the speed of your space.
