If your site stores popular image files then for reducing bandwidth usage you can use this Apache hack for denying servers to access your files. Open your sites .htaccess file for editing and add the following code:

<FilesMatch “.(gif|jpe?g)$”>
SetEnvIf Referer “^http://([^/]*.)?mydomain.com/” request_ok = 1
Order Allow, Deny
Allow from env=request_ok
</FilesMatch>

This restricts other domains form accessing all GIF or JPG files in  your website.

WordPress Hack For Adding Signature After Posts Content

Open your theme’s function.php and add the following code. Remember changing text after equal sign with your own.

function custom_content_after_post($content){
if (is_single()) {
$content .= ‘<p>Load Your Content Here</p><img src=”‘. get_template_directory() .’/images/signature.png” alt=”Your Name” />’;
}
return $content;
}
add_filter( “the_content”, “custom_content_after_post” );

You may also use WordPress Signature Plugin for doing so. It allows WP users to put signatures below every post. After installing and activating it you can easily access it by navigating to WP-Admin Dashboard >> Tools >> WPSignature.

Now open your theme’s function.php file and the following action at last:

add_action(‘wp_head’, ‘add_google_rel_author’);
function add_google_rel_author() {
echo ‘<link rel=”author” href=”https://plus.google.com/107466614529996508363/posts” />’;
}

  • Visit your Google+ Profile.
  • Click Edit and make your +1s pubic.
