I saw this “link train” idea in my technorati incoming links, and I’m afraid I could resist doing it too. The idea is to build your number of “favourites” on Technorati and discover some new blogs in the process.

Wordpress Contact form update B20070407

April 11, 2007 | Published in: Out of the Blue | Tags: 0

From Mike C - I made several small modifications in the wp-gbcf_form.php to even further enhance security. I also modified the mail header to extract the character set from the blog settings instead of hard-coding it. It was hard-coded utf-8, and on most blogs will remain as such, but now that can be modified if the webmaster has selected another charset for their blog. The documentation file, wp-gbcf_help.php, was also updated.

You can download the new version here.

The secure contact form plugin for wordpress has been updated.

Minor tweaks made to the wp-gbcf_form.php to negotiate IP addresses differently, changed character set to UTF-8 to allow more characters in emails, fixed a typo, and changed the “from” to the sender to allow use with host that require SMTP authentication. Recommendation: Swap out the wp-gbcf_form.php file.
