Weekly Links Roundup – WooCommerce Payments, Uptime Monitors, Popup Plugins

May 29, 2020 by Debbie Campbell Leave a Comment

Here’s our latest selection of curated WordPress and web marketing links to help your business thrive.

For WooCommerce users, a new payments option was announced this past week: WooCommerce Payments. This new service uses Stripe’s payment processing but with a different user experience. However, there’s one big drawback – it requires Jetpack to function. If you’re already using Jetpack to calculate taxes in WooCommerce, then it may be worth a look. If not, I’d probably stick with Stripe. Learn more about WooCommerce Payments. And, why you may want to avoid Jetpack if you can.

Looking for a service to let you know if your website goes down? Here are 12 of the best uptime monitoring services reviewed. Note: if you’re a WP Minder client, we do this for you and always have an eye on your site. Learn about all the benefits of working with us.

Popups are everywhere – they can be useful and engaging, or just terribly invasive. This post about the 5 best WordPress popup plugins also has info on how to make sure your popups are not irritating.

Weekly Links Roundup – Responsive Tables, Passwordless Logins, Effective Popups

September 6, 2019 by Debbie Campbell Leave a Comment

This week’s top WordPress and web marketing links.

If you absolutely need to use a table in your website – like to present rows and columns of data – WordPress supports that task in sort of a frustrating way. There are some great plugins that will let you easily create and add tables to posts and pages that actually work well in mobile devices. Check out this review of the 10 best responsive table plugins.

If you’ve already laid out your table using the WordPress tool and then found it’s horrible in phones, have I got a treat for you! The Magic Liquidizer Responsive Table plugin will make your existing table code work nicely in small devices – like magic.

A new secure login method that just dropped today is Passwordless Login. This offering from iThemes says it’s more secure and usable because instead of requiring a password, it sends you a link to the email associated with your account. This is brand new and there’s not much info on it yet, but it sounds interesting.

Finally… if you use popups on your WordPress site, or are considering adding one, take a few minutes and learn more about the etiquette of popups. It can be very easy to overdo it and get in the way when trying to market to your site visitors. This post might help you do it more discreetly.
