Disadvantages of WordPress as a CMS

Disadvantages of WordPress as a CMS – Really ?

The most common disadvantage mentioned by users who opt for Joomla or another CMS, is the inability to change the source code to really customize it, without causing multiple problems with configuration. Because WordPress was not originally intended to be a general CMS, the source code is not nearly as flexible. It cannot produce a truly customized site via custom source code changes. Users argue that plug-in additions enable a great deal of features with customized options, but plug-ins do not provide nearly the application richness and multi-level functionality that a flexible CMS source code does.

Along the same line, adding too many plug-ins on a WP CMS causes problems. More than a few dozen plug-ins for those that attempt to create a customized experience, are much more likely to slow down the system, cause errors and bugs, and overwhelm the WP system.

Essentially, the appeal of WordPress CMS is its user-friendly, SEO-friendly simplicity. When users attempt to bury it underneath 50 different plug-ins just to obtain a certain level of functionality and application depth, this is when WordPress ceases to be the best option. Much like the simpler shopping cart platform and plug-ins that best serve small to medium business websites, the same applies to WordPress. If a business or service website needs multi-level usability – news feeds, forums, community areas, social networking, or portals, such as those often used by corporate or education sites – then WordPress is not the best choice, because it cannot support these complexities.

PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Suhosin Extension
does not officially support PHP 5.2 and below anymore, because it is
discontinued. Use it at your own risk. in Unknown on line 0

Since the php upgrade, you might have noticed these type of errors in your server logs. Must be wondering a perfect solution for this.

Actually you should be able to use the latest build, however some older scripts or applications might get in trouble, unless they are ready for latest php version. You need not to worry any more, as you have jumped to right place for it. Just follow the below given steps and you will be at rest.

What to do?

Easy enough, downgrade suhosin from 0.9.33 to 0.9.31 :

# remove suhosin from easyapache php config
/usr/local/cpanel/scripts/phpextensionmgr uninstall PHPSuHosin

# download and install older suhosin
wget http://download.suhosin.org/suhosin-0.9.31.tgz
tar zxf suhosin-0.9.31.tgz
cd suhosin-0.9.31
phpize
./configure
make
make install

#open php.ini and add line loading suhosin
vi /usr/local/lib/php.ini

#Add following line into extensions section:
extension=”suhosin.so”

Save and close the file,  restart apache and you are done. You can also verify if everything is ok with the command php -v from the prompt.

Domain Name – Important Factors about Domain

Important factors about domain name registration.

A factor by factor quality analysis of the domain name unichost.com, as an example, is given below. Useful for website appraisals, and buying and registering domain names.

1. Length

Unichost is a 8 character word. Shorter words make better domain names. At 8 characters unichost.com should make a good domain name.

2. Dictionary Words

Unichost per-se is not a dictionary word but it contains dictionary words. Domain names with dictionary words generally make better domain names than those without. Recommended tool for keyword analysis – www.deckey.com.

3. Top Level Domain

.com is always the best. Full score for TLD factor. People are more likely to type unichost.com than unichost.bz or unichost.me or unichost.info.

4. Distinctivity

Distinctivity is the most important factor of all. unichost.com has a high distinctivity factor. Users will be able to remember unichost.com without much effort. Good choice for a domain name.

Conclusion:

UnicHost.com scored better than 82.883% of 1984314 domain names in the Domometer database.

Website on plesk windows Server asking for Username and password

Website on Plesk Windows Server/Plesk VPS asking for Username and password.

I have recently purchased a Windows VPS with Plesk control panel and have uploaded website files. While visiting my website it is asking for username and password authentication. Now, I haven’t set any authentication on server for any website, what shall I need do?

This is quite common with the sites hosted on windows server with plesk as a control panel. You are not allowed to acces the site whtout authentication – entering username and password. This is not a bug or issue but is related to password synchronization with IIS server. To resolve this, you will need to synchronize the password.

Below given are some simple steps that you will need to follow:

  1. RDP to your windows server as an administrator.
  2. Start>Run>cmd [this will take you to sytem command prompt]
  3. cd to plesk\admin\bin [shortcut is cd %plesk_bin%]
  4. Type websrvmng.exe –update-anon-password –domain-name=yourdomain.com

The above command will synchronize the password and you will require no more password authentication to view the content.

If this doesn’t work for you, then please open a support ticket and we’ll investigate further and fix the issue for you happily.
