[plugin_name src=”wp-clear-rss-cache”] Overview:
Well every once in a while it becomes necessary to clear out your RSS cache when doing work on your site related to the RSS feed. And well while this is a simple plugin it does a superb job of helping you out. Since one of the things that happens in wordPress is that the RSS feed is placed in a cache in your database and stays for a while. and if your looking to edit the layout it sometimes does not release and that is where this comes in. a few simple clicks and its clear.

[plugin_name src=”wp-simple-firewall”] Overview:
So it might be time to check out a new firewall aside from Wordfence and this plugin also looks like it might replace the comment spam plugin I use Antispambee. Will be testing it out to see how it does.. Well not only does this plugin offer up some great firewall protections it has a couple other features to it and as mentioned aside from the anti spam features it also has the ability to disable wordpress auto updates or simply decide what type to get minor or all. You can even set it to auto update your plugins but I would use this with care as I have been seeing more and more of these days. Plus it offers up the ability to lockdown your site in many ways
