d phpBB3 are much easier to work with, as their caching systems are built to use APC and other opcode caches. Apparently, Gallery3 now also supports opcode caching. More advice: turn on apc.stat (documentation says, not for production servers, but W3 needs stat to monitor file status) turn off apc.optimization (experimental and unstable, may cache user session info, fubaring items which should not be cached, such as admin pages and logged-in si… 103, 1, 4, 0 and 189.94
WordPress with W3 Total Cache on Nginx with APC (Virtualmin)
Virtualmin now includes support for Nginx web server. I deploy many WordPress sites with W3 Total Cache and APC Alternative PHP Cache, so I was very interested to see how Nginx performance compares to Apache for WordPress, and whether APC and W3TC would play nice with Nginx. I prefer to install WordPress in public_html/wordpress for ease of development, compatibility with other scripts, etc. Accordingly, the suggested configuration is for WordPr… 47, 1, 1, 0 and 85.12
APC Cache Considerations for Virtual Hosting Environments
APC cache does not work well in a virtual hosting environment unless PHP is running as FCGID, and every individual virtual host has a unique PHP.ini and a unique fcgiwrapper. This is not the case with many virtual hosting environments because the memory and CPU requirements are too great. I suggest using Virtualmin for a shared hosting environment with APC cache, because it does allow to set php.ini and fcgiwrapper for every individual virtual h… 14, 1, 1, 0 and 29.4

Remote publishing to WordPress from Facebook via RSS
Most WordPress developers know you can use one of several plugins to publish from WordPress to a Facebook wall, app or fan page. Did you know you can also do the opposite? You can publish from Facebook to WordPress by using the FeedWordPress plugin and the RSS feed from your fan page. This can be handy for clients who want to keep their site updated with blog posts, or share links and information, but don’t necessarily want to spend the ti… 8, 0, 0, 0 and 10.65

Joomla Content Management
pensive I’m set to change all that. Joomla open-source CMS solutions are different from the normal models for portal software. For a start, they are not complicated. They are developed with non-technical business users in mind, for reliability and ease of use. Our solutions don’t require the user or administrator of the system to know HTML. I can configure CMS for any level of website. From a simple site with several static pages tha… 4, 0, 0, 0 and 5.32

Tuning Apache and MySQL for Best Performance in a Shared Virtual Hosting Environment
Web hosting has changed dramatically in the last few years. The majority of accounts are now running PHP scripts and MySQL, whereas in the past most accounts were only serving static HTML files. This presents challenges in security as well as performance tuning. It is impossible to predict whether a certain configuration will work properly for a given server, unless the hardware, software, accounts, network and traffic are identical to a previou… 1, 0, 0, 0 and 1.77
