Add IPFS (Or Other) Protocol to a WordPress Site

If you have ever tried to place an IPFS link into a WordPress blog post only to later find that when you click on the link it goes nowhere. If we inspect the link with our browser’s developer tools we can see that a critical part of the URL has been removed. Because WordPress doesn’t recognize the ipfs:// protocol it is promptly removed by WordPress and substituted with an acceptable URL prococol usually http://.

How To Add An Unstoppable Domain As Custom Token To MetaMask

This is a repost of a formerly posted article that had a confusing title and needed some clarification.

This is the way to add Unstoppable Domains to an old Brave Wallet, while it does work with the new wallet, there is a bug that will not allow a zero decimal place when adding the token, if you use ‘1’ as the decimal place it makes the Unstoppable Domains show up as 0.1 if you have 1 UD or 0.2 if you have 2 UD. Also it should be noted the Contract Address is for .crypto domains only, the newer domain extensions (.wallet, .dao, .coin, .nft, etc.) use a different Contract Address, I will be updating this guide very soon and will post a link on this post when I get it finished.

Unstoppable Domains are a domain name extension somewhat similar to a .com or .org except that is on the Ethereum blockchain and ends in .crypto or on the Zilliqa blockchain and ends in .zil. Blockchain domains are stored inside a wallet as you would store a crypto-currency. An Unstoppable Domains blockchain domain can be used to build censorship-resistant websites, and used as an easier to remember crypto wallet addresses.

Add rel=”me” To A Navigation Menu in WordPress

If you are going to add rel="me" microformat markup to your social media and other third party profile pages..  And you should! You will no doubt be able to add them into a post or a page with little difficulty. The area that I found to be more troublesome and after I see how to accomplish it, don’t know why it wasn’t abundantly clear sooner. However it did cause me a bit of perplexity at first, thinking maybe I had to go into the files and add it, but alas it was just a setting  in the dropdown and then the field appeared and made total sense. Why would WordPress not have a painless way to add this useful bit of information to our markup?

Using rel=”me” To Link Social Media Profile Pages

You have probably heard of and use the rel="nofollow" tag or microformat in links that you don’t want search engines following. These links to external sites that you don’t want Google and other crawlers to follow because they aren’t relevant to your site’s structure. There are certain links that should be marked as rel="me" in addition to "nofollow" that go to 3rd party sites. these are sites links to the actual profile page that are about the same person as the page at hand. Because you have a GitHub page or a Facebook Page that are about the same person they should be marked as rel="me" in the code.
