The CWF Game Cast has completed its update from its 2.6.2 version of WordPress to 2.6.3. Why do this, you may ask. Instead of trying to explain it all to you, the WordPress people did a great job of it already.

Please read WordPress 2.6.3 at the official WordPress blog. That explains all the reasons why we are updating.

The upgrade was performed using the automatic upgrade plugin making this easy as bulls-eying womp rats on Tatooine. We even updated our Woopra plugin version 1.4.0.3 and finished everything in less than 5 minutes. Version 2.6.3 fixes a security hole with Snoopy, which is used by WordPress.

Couple this with our previous installation and activation of Gears and we arrive at speedier blogging. If you have a user account and use either Internet Explorer or Firefox please do the following. Sign into your account. Go to Site Admin. At the top right of the screen you’ll see your username, Log Out, Help, Forums, and Turbo. Click on Turbo and then install and activate Gears. If you are on a dial-up connection (i.e. AOL) you’ll receive a speedier user experience on the blog.

The CWF Game Cast has completed its update from its 2.6.1 version of WordPress to 2.6.2. Why do this, you may ask. Instead of trying to explain it all to you, the WordPress people did a great job of it already.

Please read WordPress 2.6.2 at the official WordPress blog. That explains all the reasons why we updated.

The upgrade was performed using the automatic upgrade plugin making this as mindless as a Paulie Shore film. We even updated all our plugins and finished everything in less than 12 minutes. Version 2.6.2 fixes a security hole making us safer than ever.  Our upgraded plugins, such as the Similar Posts and Woopra plugins, provided better functionality than ever before.

I could get all cheesy and say something like how you can always feel safe getting your gaming news at the CWF Game Cast.  Or, I could say that 300 or 300,000 Spartans won’t breach our Trojan walls.  But, you get enough cheese from Games Workshop.  Why amplify that?

Instead I’ll say that we’re committed to giving you the gaming news you need in a secure environment.  ’nuff said.

Plugin Update: Woopra 1.3 Installed

The CWF Game Cast has completed the installation of a great new feature called Woopra.  Many of you may already be familiar with this incredible analytical tool for blogs, websites, and online forums but this is relatively new to me.

I’ve been using WordPress.com Stats Plugin but it only provides basic information and requires a WP.com login.  Not everyone has that and while free not everyone wants one of those.  Woopra is a great and easy to use plugin.  A friend of mine, Shane, who runs Bugssite, tons of great blog posts on Washington D.C., computer games, and movies, is a member of the Woopra team.  He alerted me to the benefits of Woopra, encouraged me to join (FREE), urged on my website activations (in less than 12 hours), and helped me with the install and plugin activation.  He even blogged about the new version, which we’re using, at Woopra 1.3 Plugin Released, News.

His help speeded everything up and I’m incredibly grateful of his assistance.  Kickin’ support Shane!  Even if you don’t have a Shane of your own Woopra is so easy a snotling could do it.  I highly recommend Woopra for all your online needs.  It is FREE and adaptable so there’s no excuse for not using this superb tool.

That said Woopra will be a huge benefit for us.  It allows for live tracking, via an applet you download onto your computer (yes it runs on Mac OS X too), and it has detailed stats in both the applet and the plugin.

I simply cannot say enough positive things about Woopra.  So, please read Woopra Plugin 1.3 at the official Woopra blog.  Of course, be sure to download Woopra and tell your friends where you head about it…right here at the CWF Game Cast.

WordPress 2.6.1 Update Completed

The CWF Game Cast has completed its update from its 2.6 version of WordPress to 2.61. Why do this, you may ask. Instead of trying to explain it all to you, the WordPress people did a great job of it already.

Please read WordPress 2.6.1 at the official WordPress blog. That explains all the reasons why we are updating.

The upgrade was performed using the automatic upgrade plugin making this easy as bulls-eying womp rats on Tatooine.  We even updated all our plugins and finished everything in less than 12 minutes.  Version 2.6.1 fixes a slew of bugs in v2.6 including one that’s very close to our heart.  We utilize a lot of plugins to make your visiting experience as good as humanly possible.  Sometimes that can slow the blog down.  This new version of WordPress remedies that situation allowing us to make the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs.

Couple this with our previous installation and activation of Gears and we arrive at speedier blogging. If you have a user account and use either Internet Explorer or Firefox please do the following. Sign into your account. Go to Site Admin. At the top right of the screen you’ll see your username, Log Out, Help, Forums, and Turbo. Click on Turbo and then install and activate Gears. If you are on a dial-up connection (i.e. AOL) you’ll receive a speedier user experience on the blog.
