WordPress Easter Egg

Saturday, July 10, 2004

No one’s talking about it, so let me do the honors :D

If you use wordpress 1.2, go to http://example.com/wp-admin/options.php?option_group_id=all
(where example.com/wp-admin is the URI of your wordpress wp-admin folder), for all the buttons and levers you’ll ever need.

Remember, too much change is not a good thing, and don’t blame me if you break something. ;)

    That’s the whole bunch of them, all of them in the Options table, in fact.
    Enjoy :)

    Now all you need to do is add a menu option: “All Options”… or maybe “God Mode”

    Nice find!

    I’m curious as to what it does. I don’t use WordPress… can someone explain it or show a screenshot or something?

    Are the names on the left hand side the variable names that can be used in hacks and plugins, etc?

    Great find, please be aware that this can have dire consequences on the functioning of your site. For wahtever reason, when I tried to save anything it deactivated my not defaultly installed plugins giving me errors everywhere. Luckily I worked it out relatively quickly, but the expletives had already come out. doh!

    For those asking if WordPress is good. YES is the answer. It’s a great program. Give it a whirl.

    Very neat egg. :)

    Not really a Easter Egg, I think, it appears also if you ad too much ping Servers at once.. So I knew it already ;)
