Defensio gets an update

One of the best Wordpress plug-ins out there, Defensio, gets a minor update today to version 1.5.1. If you haven’t yet got it installed, now would be a great time. As I’ve written before, Defensio is way better than Akismet from both a usability and – at least as far as I’ve been able to tell – accuracy point of view and is well worth checking out.

The update deals with a little niggle that I had with the widget (I’m sure I wasn’t the only one, as they said that they’d already been working on it when I asked about it) that meant it did not display in accordance with the settings selected by the user. Now, it will happily sit on the left, right or centre of your sidebar – and you can have it in light or dark too. I know, a little thing really but it’s the little things that are important.

As soon as Wordpress have updated themselves, you’ll be able to find the download at:

Do yourself a favour and get it as soon as you can.

Update: Wordpress have now updated their site, so you can download the latest version.

    Wow! That’s a great post, thanks!

    Not quite sure why, but WP.org extend is not showing 1.5.1 yet. I’ll contact them to see what might be wrong. Probably just caching.
