Released in 2001, Internet Explorer 6 has been one of the most frustrating browsers ever released. Since it doesn’t support a lot of key web standards, a high percentage of websites look awful on IE6, to a level where it makes the site almost unreadable.
Unfortunately, the browser is still used by millions of people around the world, therefore a large number of high profile people and companies support projects such as IE 6 No More and Bring Down IE6.
Today I would like to show you a range of WordPress plugins which force or encourage visitors to upgrade their browser if they are using Internet Explorer 6. It may sound like a drastic step however it’s worth doing if your design doesn’t work on IE 6 (unfortunately many top designs are). Most of these plugins work in a similar way so I recommend trying a few in your test area and choosing which one suits you.
- IE 6 Upgrade Option
- No More IE6
- No IE6
- IE6 No More
- No More IE6
- NO-IE Upgrade Reminder Widget
- No IE Welcome
