Dream: Roam All Around Pakistan

I am having this dream for quite some time now: to wander all around pakistan once before getting married…

And I hope to turn this dream into reality any time now. These days I am planning for it. Getting things done, finishing client projects, and buying necessary stuff. It will be quite an experience. I have got a special domain ready to post pictures, videos, and text about the places where I will stay/pass through out this tour.

I gave not decided by what mean I will be traveling. What about a motorcycle?

I dont think any of my friends will be ready to go with me. So most probably I will be alone. Lets see. I will keep you updated!

Wordpress Plugin: Hide Wordpress Version from Hackers

The first thing hackers see before trying to apply any cracking attempts on your wordpress-based websites is the version of wordpress you are having. Experts say you should hide that version number from your output html to make it difficult for crackers to get into your site.

Prior to wordpress 2.5, this was written in header.php theme file. So you could simply delete that line:

<meta name=”generator” content=”WordPress <?php bloginfo(‘version’); ?>” />

But from wordpress 2.5 onward, this is generated automatically by wordpress core engine and inserted in <head> part of your site’s HTML. I have written a little plugin “hide-wp-generator” that hides meta-generator tag altogether and thus helps you keeping your site secure.
