Full Size Image in Wordpress Default Gallery
Wordpress Gallery is indeed a handy tools to neatly insert your collection of pictures and order them easily in your post, without being bothered by performing manual arrangement (such as using tables, etc.) through the HTML editor. But there was this time when I feel annoyed because when one of the image in the gallery was clicked, the loaded page didn’t show a full scaled image, instead it displayed a medium-size.
I then realized that this is something that related to theme’s functionality, because there is no option to set the image size in the gallery setting.
The solution is by adding a specific template that handles the image attachment page. If you check your wp-content/themes folder, you will notice that those files that are found in there, are templates which Wordpress uses to display the content of your blog (or the category, or the attachment).
By default, Wordpress uses the single.php file as the template that handles all your image attachments. And this default is something that we should tinker with ![]()

Customize Facebook Emoticon
When I was talking about Facebook Emoticon for Wordpress, lots of question came in and asked something like this:
How to add this to my Facebook?
Well, I have to repeatedly explain that the plugins are meant to be used on a Wordpress-based blogs. You don’t have to add that to your Facebook, because it was Facebook’s emoticon in the first place anyway.
But since there is a high-demand upon customized emoticon for Facebook, I’m going to tell you how to make one for yourself by using free stuff such as Facemood. This is fun, believe me.
Wordpress Maintenace Notice
When you work on your wordpress blog, for example modify the theme or back-up your database, would you prefer to suspend the blog while you perform the task? Or do you prefer to act careless and let others see that uncompleted job of yours?
I’d prefer to suspend the blog. Why? Because it’s a nuisance for me, when I’m backing-up my database, somebody posted a comment, which will absolutely be left out from my database back-up. So I think giving a notice to visitors that the blog is under maintenance, and really suspend the blog from outer-side interaction, is a good step.
These following steps will suspend the wordpress blog, by showing a notice on every requested permalink. Its so simple, no plugins required. And it is much better instead of only putting a single emptied index.php file in your blog folder (because when people access the permalink, the content will still be available).
And here is how to do it..
