recaptcha logo
In order to prevent robot to register on my wordpress sites, I like to use the plugin WP-reCAPTCHA which used a strong and robust captcha system made by a compagny recently bought by Google.
But the actual plugin have two problems : it add a css file on every page of your site, making it slower to load.
I found a way to correct this problem.

Hi,
one my other website energies2demain.com I use a bunch of plugins to improve the behavior of WordPress.
One of them is WP-Slimbox2 which allow to display a nice lightbox when the visitor click on a picture.
This plugin is great but it decrease the performance of the website, but we can correct that.
First, what cause the problems : too many files need to be load :
To simply decrease the number of file to download, I simply put them in the template of my theme : I took the output of the javacript from firebug and put them in the bottom of footer.php . Same thing with the css in the main css file from the theme. For the picture, well, I didn’t figure yet :p .
One big big problem with this solution : after the update of the plugin, every thing is lost. Moreover, the “mess” you put in all the files are still here.
So I’m going to write a very light plugin to do a lightbox in jQuery. This plugin will have no option, no configuration and no image to control, no installation. Basically, is going to be only a Javascript snippet that you will have to insert in the footer of your theme.
Hi all ( you ? )

Hi,
I just update my wordreference command. It is now using the Ubiquity standard. It also try to find the default translation : from the language of the page ( in the html tag) to your default language.
I also work on a track flight command, a command to track parcel send by UPS, FedEx, … with their tracking number. Imagine, you just select the number, and write the command track this, and that’s it.
It also be cool to have a command to get the traffic status of an area, or direction between to point.
I’m also thinking about a command which lunch every Application on a computer … like enseo did.
the site du zéro is a famous web site for beginner in programming.

I just wrote a Ubiquity command for it.
The command allow you to search an expression in the tutos, the forum or in the news of the website.
Write “sdz” or “siteduzero” to lunch the command, add your expression and then the target.
It is a french command ( for a french website).

Performance of thomas-genin.com
While I was writing my previous post I realize that I haven’t really optimize this website. I worked a lot to improve the speed of http://energies2demain.com but I did nothing for this one.
And for someone who tried to sale him-self as a “web-optimizer” it is not something to be proud of. So I’m going to optimize it. But first I want to share and save what is the current performance state. This is going to be useful for people who want to see how much we can improve performance.
