From time-to-time I get requests from people asking if they can pay me to install the WordPress Email Notification Plugin and/or other WordPress plugins for them. To which I usually* respond, “yes”.

My current “rate” for this service is simply a donation via PayPal of what you feel is fair.

To install the WordPress Email Notification Plugin I will need FTP access to your server and an admin login for WordPress.

* As long as your content isn’t something Net Nanny would have an issue with.

Firefox 1.0.1 has been released. Check out the changelog for specifics.

As always, it’s suggested that you uninstall your current Firefox version before installing the new version. Your settings are stored outside of the Firefox directory by default, so you shouldn’t lose anything.

The Word Press Email Notification Plugin has been updated to version 2.1.

• Changed plugin to use config settings for url, title and email fields
• Fixed HTML email formatting issues

If you see anything that looks like a bug or the documentation needs corrected, please let me know.

For a while now I’ve been trying to figure out why certain pages which link to CSS refuse to load the CSS file in Firefox and Netscape.

After searching Google to no avail, I posted to a forum about the issue and Bob quickly found the root of the problem. My server was treating the mime type as html, not css like it should.

Since the problem wasn’t the link (which is setup as text/css) I had to create an .htaccess file and put the following line of code in:

AddType text/css .css

I uploaded it and that did the trick.
