An Underscore Solution

Hopefully this will be the last post on this topic for a while (I know it’s not the most interesting thing to discuss), but I’ve finally made up my mind on the subject. After doing some more in-depth research on the dash/underscore debate over the last week, I’ve decided that the benefits to URI-dashes do outweigh my stubbornness and personal preference for the underscore. So I’m making the switch. As of now, all future URI’s on this site will be dash-friendly. In addition, all past URI’s have been updated, and the old underscored-URI will be 301’d (Permanently Redirected) to it’s updated location.

Google and the Underscore

A while ago I posted my WordPress Underscore Plugin to modify the slug treatment of permalinks to use the ‘_’ character in place of the ‘-‘. Some cried foul play as the SEO gods wouldn’t understand their URI’s, but Philip Nilsson pointed out something I felt was too important to leave buried in the comments.

WordPress FeedBurner Plugin

So I’ve been curious about FeedBurner and it’s increasing popularity these days. I decided to try it out with this site, but instead of making the edits to the core WordPress files, I decided to make it a plugin. This is a beta release, and should work with WordPress 1.5. It was tested on this site, and with a fresh install of WP 1.5. The plugin works the best when WP is able to edit the .htaccess file itself. A page will be added to the ‘Options’ area in the WP Admin area that will walk you through a few steps in order to get your site setup to work with FeedBurner.
