To transfer your account to the new site, send a quick email and let us know 1) the site/URL where you purchased the book (e.g., DigWP.com), and 2) your registered username or email address. Thank you!
New Plugin: Simple Download Counter
Super pumped to announce two new plugins: Simple Download Counter and Simple Login Notification. The first is a lightweight yet powerful way to manage and count downloads. The second is a tiny plugin (only 20 KB!) that sends an email alert whenever an admin-level user logs in. Both of these plugins are lightweight, fast, 100% FREE and open source :)

TasteWP FTW
TasteWP enables anyone to setup a test/temporary WordPress instance in seconds. So you can play around and do things like test plugins on a live site. I know this kind of thing has been done before, but I’ve never seen it made SO EASY. Like stupid easy. And FREE. Awesome tool.
