This Is Really Unique – WPUnique Plugin
I haven’t been here for a little while, actually it is much longer than I thought, as the saying goes, time flies when you are having fun.
It is great when work can be classed as fun.
Apart from the ‘fun’ I have managed to find some great tools and products which I will fill you in on over the next few days.
The first one is a, wait for it, WordPress (knew it would be that didn’t you) Plugin. This is no ordinary plug,, no this one is unique and so simple to use too.
Now it is not a free plugin and after you find out what it does, you wouldn’t expect to get something this powerful for free. But the price is right……
Okay! Here it is!!
WPUnique……now can you guess what it does?
Yes! it turns your PLR content into unique content, actually it turns any content you have on your site into unique content.
Watch the videos here.…..I tried what is in the videos and my results were really, really good!
A site that I installed the plugin on was really doing nothing, looking great but doing nothing. I had heaps of PLR articles and content for the niche but was too busy with other work to rewrite the articles and unique them.
After adding the WPUnique plugin and setting up the un-rewritten, PLR articles to drip feed onto the site, I noticed the traffic to the 
site had increased to the point where the month was only a couple of days old and the visitors had increased to many more than the two previous months. And….visitors who will leave a comment too, not just the ‘link’ kind of comment either, a comment relevant to the article they have read, and by that, you can see they have really read the article.
I’m not going to try to explain the WPUnique plugin to you, I’ll let the developer do that, Steve does it so much better than I can. I can only tell you the results I have been getting and they are only two instances.
But I will give you an outline of what else this plugin can do -
You can unique all your posts and pages.
You can unique individual posts and pages
You can spin all content.
You can spin individual content.
You can link keywords up to your money products
You can make these links Dofollow or not
And -
The links can be opening in a new window or not.
With the unique option for posts and pages, they still read the exactly the same, it is not the visitor who picks up the duplicate content, it is the search engines and that is where the content is made unique, all above board too, not black-hat stuff.
So far I have only used the spin option on one site and on one article but even without setting up the ‘necessary’, the article still read well and was 32% unique from the original. So with a little bit of work there, this will be a winner too.
Okay, if you are like me and have lots of PLR stuff, even a little PLR stuff, then this is the plugin for you, don’t take time to think about it, give your brain a rest, this is one of those ‘no-brainers’, or as they say in Nikeland – “Just Do It!!!”
Head on over to WPUnique now,read all about it, watch Steve’s video but most importantly, make the decision to ‘get it’…….
Catch you later

Cannot Login To Your WordPress Site/Blog?
Cannot Login To My WordPress Site
If this ever happens to you, don’t panic, don’t go changing your password. Take a deep breath, go get your coffee/tea/soft beverage of choice and prepare for an almost mind numbing experience, ( the harder beverage of choice can come later, you’ll enjoy it more then)
In more cases than not, the reason you cannot login to your WordPress site/blog is caused by a plugin. I said “take a deep breath etc” because if you have many plugins then this little job can take some time.
Firstly to be able to login, go to your FTP client and change the name of the plugins folder to anything you like as long as it is not just ‘plugins’. I changed mine to oldplugins.
Now go back and try to login, you should have access now. In the Plugins section you should have error messages for all your plugins telling you that they cannot be found and have been deactivated or something to that effect.
Next make a folder on your desktop or wherever you like and call it ‘oldplugins’ then download all the plugins from that folder on your site.
Make a new folder in your wp-comments called, you guessed it, plugins.
Now the ‘fun’ begins! Upload each plugin that is in the ‘oldplugins’ folder to the new ‘plugins’ folder, one at a time.
So what you do is:-
Upload plugin.
Activate plugin
Log out
Log in
If you get back into your site, that plugin is fine.
If you find that the plugin from your folder needs upgrading after you upload it, don’t do the upgrade before you log out and then in. If the logging out and in works, then upgrade the plugin and try the log out and in again.
Do this for every plugin and you should find that after activating one of them, you will not be able to login. That one till be the culprit.
Go back to your FTP client, delete it from your system and if it is for a function that you cannot live without, there is probably another that will perform the same or similar function.
This incompatibility can happen after installation of a new plugin or an upgrade of a plugin too, could be the WP version and the plugin version not getting along.
I did think that the way the auto upgrade for plugins in the 2.8 version was great and it still is but from now on I will only ever upgrade one plugin per login session and make sure I can log out and in again.
Thank goodness all is back to normal, well normal for me, could be different for you 
WordPress 2.8 Wait!
Don’t know about you, but some days I start out with what I feel is a simple job, the first one of the day should always be pleasant and straight forward. That kind of sets the tone for the day, hopefully and most days it goes like that. Not today….
If you have anything to do with WordPress, then you will surely know that WordPress 2.8 has been released.
My advice would be, leave it go a couple of weeks, there are always things that don’t go to plan and 2.8 is no different.
Many will upgrade and have no problems but there will be issues with many others. It seems like there are a couple of plugins that can cause hiccups, like not being able to view the admin/dashboard and/or the site.
It is very tempting now that it is so easy to upgrade, to select the Upgrade option in the tools area but take it carefully.
I would be inclined, if you can’t wait, to deactivate all your plugins before you hit the ‘Upgrade automatically’ and then activate one at a time. Seems like there are a few that don’t want to play the game and from what I have seen, this seems to be the most common problem.
If you do go ahead and upgrade and if you do have problems, then this link may help you out, Troubleshooting and if you do have problems with the plugins and can’t access your Dashboard to get to the plugins area then here is a workaround that I was directed to over on the WordPress Forum. Actually that is a handy one to keep bookmarked for any other occasion that plugins or not accessing your dashboard, may be a problem.
There are some nice looking areas in the dashboard, like if you use Widgets for your sidebars, much easier to get around. You can now drag and drop widgets that have been in use and keep the settings. All the sidebars are visable and you save each widget as you go, so you don’t have to worry about setting up your widgets and forgetting to use the Save changes and losing the Widget and it’s info.
You can now Preview, Activate or Delete a theme from the actual Theme graphic also you can now select what you would like for your theme, like colors, number of columns, column widths, features like, custom headers, theme options, threaded comments etc, just tick the boxes and you will be taken to the search for themes option with all your wanted items already entered.
With the Plugins, there is now an option to group all the plugins that need upgrading automatically. So when each plugin is successfully upgraded, you return to the list with that plugin removed from the top.
Very neat and very easy, Oh Boy! when I think about how it was to upgrade a plugin, WordPress has come such a long way and it is just great!
So don’t dispair, be patient and the hiccups will be fixed and your WP sites/blogs will once more be a joy to work with.
