Identifying WordPress Vulnerabilities

Introduction
We all know that Wordpress is the primary CMS system used on the Internet. We also know that security in Wordpress is not always taken for granted.

We should also be on alert for new zero-day vulnerabilities and patch those systems that are affected. Keep in mind that it's not uncommon to see new zero-day vulnerabilities being discovered in newest versions of Wordpress.

Advanced Version of Basket Magento Extension Released

I have upgraded the 'Basktet' Magento extension to its advanced version. Basket shows all your cart details on a popup box in a beautiful fashion.

So Basket can save a lot of customer's time that they spend navigating here and there.
