[Security] Wordpress Themes

http://gigaom.com/2007/11/26/wordpre...rity-problems/

Try to be a bit careful with what theme you use. It's apparently becoming more of an issue as more and more theme sites pop up.

I wouldn't say this is exclusive to Wordpress either. Be wary if you're concerned with security regardless of CMS.

Another reason why I should delete WP and just code/design everything myself like I used to.

I've been too lazy to code my own and prefer coding a whole website instead. lol

True that! I used Mephisto once, which was cool, but it's kind of overkill for what I'm wanting. I like really lightweight codebases.

I programmed all of http://www.fredrickville.com by hand. And I don't think I care to do it again.
