WP Recipes

Please remember that all reviews on WPBG are my own personal view.

WP Recipes is another blog that is owned and maintained by Jean-Baptiste Jung.

This blog is dedicated to providing little tidbits of Wordpress hacks and tips. I have been a fan and reader of this blog since its conception and I have seen it grow into a very popular blog.

It’s design is simple and it’s content is simple but let’s get onto “What I Like” and “What I Don’t Like.”

What I Like:

• The cute little cat in the header.
• The buttons in the header for Twitter, Technorati, Stumbleupon and others.
• Navigation to Pages is nice and neat.
• Sidebar is clear of clutter
• The content is useful
• The content is short but sweet.

What I Don’t Like:

• The lack of categories in the sidebar or in the menu. Now, the site may not need categories since it is al about Word Press but what if I just want to read the posts that pertain to the loop, or to the footer, etc.?
• No E-mail form but at least email subscriptions are enabled.

Except for those two minor things, another great website that is another combo. Great content and great design.
