I think the original page navigation of WordPress is not very nice. Simple, but not very nice. Searching for a nicer version I found the plugin WP-PageNavi. It generates a page navigation which looks like:
Pretty nice. But it needs minor modifications in your template code after installation. In my case I had to replace the following lines of code in a few .php files in my template.
<div id="pagenavi">
<!--
<div><?php posts_nav_link('','','« Previous Entries') ?></div>
<div><?php posts_nav_link('','Next Entries »','') ?></div>
-->
<?php wp_pagenavi(); ?>
</div>
Simply find all code places with the posts_nav_link(..) function call, remove them and add the wp_pagenavi() function call. That’s it.

Missing the favicon in your WordPress blog? Then you should install the MaxBlogPress Favicion plugin. It’s easy to use and comes with 100 pre installed icons. Or you are able to upload you own icon.
Problems
After installation the MaxBlogPress Favicion on the TechniTip.Net blog all pages were returned empty to the browser. I don’t know exactly what did cause this issue, but could solve it by changing the plugin code injecting mode:
Enter Settings->MBP Favicon->Advanced Options and checked [x] wp_head() instead of Buffer Caching.
Afterwards everything was fine.
Installation
- Install via download from MaxBlogPress Favicion and unpack it to your plugin folder
- Or search for “MaxBlogPress Favicion” in the plugin section in your WP-Admin if you have WordPress 2.7 or newer installed

An incredible cool plugin for WordPress and all mobile devices like iPhone, iPod, Android or Blackberry is “WPtouch“. It automatically generates pages for perfect display on mobile devices from your WordPress blog. Installation is totally easy and the result is looking great!
See the difference:
The single post view:
Installation
If you have WordPress 2.7 or newer installed, the installation can be done with a few clicks:
- Enter the admin page and select “Plugins”
- Scroll down to the section “Get More Plugins”
- Select “Plugin Browser/Installer”
- Search for “WPtouch” and install
Otherwise you have to go the manual way.
Problems with WP Super Cache
If you are using WPtouch together with the WP Super Cache plugin you may run into trouble, I solved it with the following steps:
- In Settings->WP Super Cache add the following Recected User Agents:
iPhone
iPod
aspen
dream
incognito
webmate
BlackBerry9500
BlackBerry9530
- Add the following line in your .htaccess
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !^.+(iPhone|iPod|aspen|dream|incognito|webmate|BlackBerry9500|BlackBerry9530)
This line should be inserted above the following existing line:
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/wp-content/cache/supercache/%{HTTP_HOST}/$1/index.html -f
