Hi, okay, this is another quick video for blogtactics.com it will appear on the video’s page as soon as it is finished and uploaded. I know the video’s page does not have any video as of the moment because of the blog crash I had recently. They will back up shortly for the obvious delay.
Okay, as you know I am fan of automating stuff and making life easy. As, you can see from the automated blog content post that I have done recently, I had a new plug in written for me that makes life a lot easier when you are installing a new blog. This is something basically I had written for my own use because when I am installing a new blog, I tend to have a lot of plug inns for the blog and activating them one by one can take forever.
So, this new plug in will allow you to activate as many of them as you want in one go, so it is a real time saver. Now, I could charge for it but I am not going to but I am going to give it away for free to get you a copy you need to be signed up to the blog tactics newsletter which you can do and you can scroll down here. Here is the email and names submit forms. All you need to do is put in your email address and name. Click on submit, you will be sent an email with a link in it which you need to click on to confirm that your email address is correct to click on to confirm that your email address is correct. You will then be sent through to this page where you have access to blog tactics report and the other four tools that are available the blog link finder, keyword tool, project management tool, and foreign poster.
You just click on these images to download these bits of software and what is on this video is uploaded, I will also add it in an extra bit here which will include the link to the new plug in which is called WP Plug In pro as a plug in activator. Okay, so it will be a new bit here and you can grab it there.
Do not worry if you are already on the blog tactics newsletter, and then just use this form again with the same email address and with the same name. It will not sign you up twice. It is set up to realize that you are already on the list and all it would do is take you straight to that download page.
Alright, let us have a look at the plug in and see how it works. This is a Wood Press 2.3 blog and what you need to do is obviously upload the plug in and then come to the plug in’s page and click on activate, you do not need to activate. You do not need to activate any of the others as you can see I have a long list here and non of them are activated at all so I just click on activate for WP Plug in Pro. So that is now activated. And now, go the manage portion and when that comes up I will go to plug ins pro and it comes up.
And, what we then have is a list of all the plug ins with thick boxes next to them. So, all I need to do is scroll down and take them one at a time. Now, I am at she is going to get my coded with an extra option here to take them all, so you can take them all in one go if you want to. Now generally, you may not want to that because you may have some plug ins that you do not want to use. I have this one that I am using at the moment on this blog.
So, it is literally going through and taking this a force of what I do so because I have quite a few. Actually, I will not force to be there for any second, it is not working with popularity contest at the moment but then popularity contest is having problems with Word press version 2.5 anyway. I see the problem being able to access with Alex Kimble to bring us an update to it anyway shortly. So, do not use it with popularity contest, you can activate that separately, okay.
So, I will just go on taking over these that I want to activate and force it has been. So, I got down to the bottom of my list now and if you scroll back up you can see I do have a lot of plug ins. If I had to go through and activate those individually one after another it will take quite a while, it will take 10 or 15 minutes worth at least. But, all I have done is taking a minute to go down and take the once I want and simply click on activate and select to plug ins and it will go up and activate all of those for me and it will actually give me a report for whether they had been successful or not.. And, it is actually runned through and I activated them all, okay.
Now perhaps, you went back to the plug ins page and we have a look at the stand plug ins list and we would press that and suppose that it is activated we can see that they are all activated, okay, except for the one that that I did not take. That is how quick and easy it is, it saves you huge amount of time. We can answer the word press 2.3 blog, it does also work with word press 2.5 a new version. So again, you go to your plug ins page which is a slide area in the admin it is over here and again you simply activate the WP Plug in Pro plug in activator then we go to manage and under manage we go to plug ins pro and again, all I am going to do and pick all the ones that I want to activate, I pause the video again while I do so.
Okay, there we go, it took I think 20 seconds or so and all you need to do now again is click on activate select plug ins and it will go away and activate that whole list. Again, it gives me report and I could again go back to look at the plug ins list and see if they are all activated. . It is very useful. It is so quick to get your plug ins activated. This is going to save you so much time when you are installing new blogs. As I said, it is free all you need to do is go to blogtactics.com and in the side bar here put in your email and name and click on submit and when you get that email in your inbox click on the confirm link and you will be sent another email with the download link so you can get access to the download page with the new plug in blog tactics report and the other free tools, okay.
I hope you found this useful it will be on the videos page as soon as I get the updated.
Thank you very much for listening.
