In reply to: Should I turn indexing on for any folders?I turn indexing off for _all_ folders. I recomend everyone does so.
The only time you need it on is when you want people to be able to see the contents of the folder, like a download archive.

In reply to: Motivation for creating Plug-ins?I do it to make my life easier. If I think of something that would make WordPress easier for myself, I write up the code to do so. And sinse I have the code, and it made my life easier, I figure why not give it to everyone else to make their life easier.
And when someone leaves a comment that the plugin helped them out, it makes all the time I spent writing it worth while. Whereas plugins that don’t get a lot of comments, I tend to not develop/support anymore. A little thanks goes a long way. ??
So my motivation is a little selfish I guess, but “necessity is the mother of all invention”.

In reply to: Can we make a standard that ALL plugins can adopt?I guess it depends on the plugin, but I think it would be nice to have a “simple plugin options page”. Where, if a plugin had only 1 or 2 options, it could add them there, so that you would have multiple plugin options on one page and not mess up the menus.

In reply to: download speed slowWordPress 2.* isn’t the fastest thing around, but 10-15 seconds seems fairly long. It depends on many things, but it looks as if your DNS servers are slow. At least at first load, it did. Seems quite fast now.
