Svetoslav Marinov’s Blog

Hi All,

I upgraded this blog to Wordpress 2.7.1. I also upgraded the hosting

This blog is running on a VPS from Slicehost with 256 MB RAM. The OS is Fedora Core 10.

The webserver is nginex.
Here is my vhost file which contains mod_rewrite instructions + ws super cache instructions

nginex-vhost-wordpress-wp-super-cache-rewrite-rules

The strange thing is that the free memory is pretty low it's between 3-15 MB free.

Another thing I didn't like in Wordpress 2.7.x is the conversion of single/double quotes by Wordpress to *smart* quotes.

Here is how to fix it.

Edit file : /blog/wp-content/themes/default/functions.php

Add these lines:

remove_filter('the_content', 'wptexturize');
remove_filter('comment_text', 'wptexturize');

What I did I also is I edited /blog/wp-includes/default-filters.php and commented the line as shown in the next code.
We don't want every body to know which Wordpress version your site is running, right ?

//add_action('wp_head', 'wp_generator');
