How to customize the comment cookie expiration time in WordPress

In WordPress, the default how to cookie expiration time is up to 30,000,000 seconds. That's very long, especially for bloggers who are using cache plugins like W3 Total Cache. In fact, this plugin is not caching pages for visitors who have left comments on your blog, because of cookies, and until the cookie is cleared the plugin informs that cookie is rejected.
If you want to reduce the comment cookie expiration time, you have to play with the comment_cookie_lifetime filter in your functions.php file. You can set the expiration time you want, I thing 259 200 seconds in this example.
[icon style=”chain” color=”red”]functions.php[/icon]
[coded]
add_filter('comment_cookie_lifetime', 'my_comment_cookie_lifetime');
function my_comment_cookie_lifetime($lifetime) {
return 259200;
}
[/coded]

Feedburner removes Socialize feature: how to retrieve it?

As you can see, Google Feedburner has removed Socialize feature from its left menu on Feedburner account. Webmasters and bloggers hope that it's not a permanent change because this tool is very useful for those who want to link their RSS feed to their Twitter account.
The link has been removed, but hopefully not the feature: you can access to Socialize settings by typing this URL on your toolbar address:
http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/socialize?id=XXXXXXXXXXXX
Just change “XXXXXXXXXXXXX” by your own ID, that you can retrieve on toolbar address when browsing options of your feed in your Feedburner account.

How to find the Socialize option on Feedburner

Here is a small trick quickly to find the option “ Socialize " In Feedburner, which literally disappeared from the menu! If you are a user of Feedburner, you must have noticed like me that the page “ Socialize", which allowed link your Feedburner account to your Twitter account has simply disappeared from the Feedburner menu. And like me, you must have spent a good quarter of an hour clicking everywhere to find it, thinking that the problem came from you and not from Feedburner. I reassure you immediately: it is Feedburner which has obviously removed the Socialize page.
Is this the logical continuation of their strategy of conquering social media through Google+? After removing the tweets from Google's search results (which allowed me to find very fresh news), Google - owner of Feedburner and whose unofficial slogan is "Don't be evil" - continues- to cut ties with Twitter?
No word on whether the Socialize option link will return in the future. In the meantime, the option still works for those who had set it up and, fortunately, the link to Socialize is still accessible from the address bar of your browser, by typing this:
