Okay. Here goes. This list looks like it’s got most of the standard recommendations: 30+ Essential WordPress Plugins http://wparena.com/?p=259 Remember, if you activate 30 plugins on one site, you are asking for trouble! Too many possible conflicts. Am I wrong?
I’m breaking my own initial rule for this site, which was that knowledgeable folks would offer comments and reviews of themes and plugins so that the rest of us would not have to wade through interminable lists of links of “30+ Essential…” etc.
