Well, apart from the “joke” of the title that probably won’t be understood if you’re not spanish (and probably they won’t understand either) I have already done most of the updating. I’m up to date with the version of Wordpress thanks to the magnificent Wordpress plugin Wordpress Automatic Update. In addition I’ve added some new plugins and I’m in a try-out period to be sure nothing fails. Fortunately the theme fSpring Widgets by Fredrik Fahlstad even with my modifications, that let’s face it, are not expert ones, works perfectly (as far as I can tell) with 2.51 version of Wordpress

Now the only thing left to be done is to replace the Babel plugin I was using until now to write this blog in two languages, with the xLanguage plugin that I discovered recently and seems to allow the blog to be totally bilingual, translating all: categories, pages, Feeds, etc.. and not only the posts. The only problem is that it seems far more complicated to implement and I am still studying it because I have to add  some localization files and don’t know exactly how many nor where (the only one I have is the spanish one that I put on /wp-content/languages/). Well….. everything  for internationalization.

The new plugins I used and I’m testing are:

• Admin Drop Down Menu - by Ozh, which allows a much more comfortable dashboard for the administration of the blog.
• Google XML sitemaps - To create a site map (obviously) that is more friendly with the search engines (essential)
• Maintenance Mode - To don’t drive you crazy when I’m making changes to the blog.
• WP-EditArea- by the Spanish guy anieto, it allows a much more friendly edition of the theme archives inside the wordpress environment, acting as a code editorWell, That’s it for now, I’ll keep you informed
