Ich weiß zwar, dass ein Blog mit viel weniger auskommt. Und die Bastelkönige unter den Bloggern kennen für viele dieser Helferlein Codeschnipsel oder jedenfalls performanceschonendere Lösungen. Und wenn es der komplette Verzicht darauf wäre.

Aber auch das soll schließlich jeder halten wie er will. Seit ich die fantatischen Wordpress-Themes von Elmastudio hier einsetze habe ich mir ehrlich gesagt keine Gedanken mehr über die Performance meines Blogs gemacht. Vielleicht liegt es auch an den Wordpress-Fortschritten selbst aber über die allgemeine Performance, sowohl im Front- als auch im Backend, habe ich keinerlei Klagen.

Hier also nun meine 35 aktiven Plugins für euch zum Durchgehen. Vielleicht kann der eine oder andere ja damit etwas anfangen. Ich stehe gern zur Verfügung, falls jemand Nachfragen zum Einsatz oder zum Sinn der Plugins hat. 🙂
