How to Turn Off iGoogle

Oznake:, ,

I just mistakenly turned on iGoogle option, so I was forced to see iGoogle regardless if I am logged in or not. If I typed google.com directly in the address bar I again was redirected to iGoogle version. Since I found iGoogle to be ugly and not so useful as classic one, I tried to search in Options how to turn it off or disable it but…

But button for turning off iGoogle is on top left corner of iGoogle. Click on settings icon then just click on Classic Home and you will again have your bellowed classic Google.

Disable Password Reset in WordPress

Oznake:, ,

I just compiled small plugin from code available online, which will disable password reset function „Lost your password“ in WordPress. This will enhance security of your WordPress site especially in case if you have lot of WordPress sites and you want to be able to change passwords only from MySQL.

On top of that it will disable error message which tells potential attacker, what he mistaked username or password while typing the name.

This plugin is in no way absolute security and it would be nice addition to a combo of Limit Login Attempts and Bulletproof security.

Do note that if you forget password you will not be able to reset it through „Lost your password?“ but only on one of the more advanced ways listed on Resetting Your Password WordPress Codex page.
