NotifyMe plugin now working on WP 2.5


Those who were already using NotifyMe prior to updating their WP installation to WP 2.5 should not have had any problems working with the plugin, however new installs on WP 2.5 failed miserably due to the fact that WP seems to have made some changes related to error checking for plugins.

The problem has been fixed in the latest version (1.04); all I really had to do was put the installation instructions in a function rather than have them hanging loose inside the php file.

Anyway, go get it.

On a side note; the code for notifyme is currently really dirty and hazardous.. I will certainly clean this up once I get around to making a final version of the plugin.

Tweak your Explorer (Win XP)


Comments Off | Goodies, Links, Miscellanious, Resources
explorer-tweaked
Ok first off let me start by saying that I am a happy Kubuntu user and that this is my OS of choice. However, being a sysadmin I’d be ignorant to work on one system only, this is also the reason I’m using Vista at my work.. I personally hate the OS. But since it is destined to be mainstream I just have to put some time into it and get the hang of it.

Anyway, back to the point, on my Laptop (my personal companion) I have a dual boot installation of Kubuntu 7.10 and Windows XP running, Kubuntu mainly for development and XP for leisure (aka. gaming).

One of the things I love about Windows though, is that it is so damn easy to customize explorer to your needs, I found a post on deviantart today.. which had some really interesting references to explorer addons in it, I gave it a try and well.. you can see the result in the attached screenshot! I guess I’ll be spending a few more hours than usual on XP today ^_^

(for those who need a new set of glasses; the addons, plugins, extensions.. call it what you like.. are: FindeXer, QTTabbar, QTAddressBar)

Have a look at my future phone

Isn’t she a beauty? :-)

For those of you who haven’t heard of openmoko or neo1973 yet, check it out.

For all you iPhone lovers out there: this phone is technically better than the iPhone in almost every single way.

Can’t wait till it comes out.

Plugins - WP 2.3 Comaptibility


Comments Off | Goodies, Notifyme Plugin, Page Activity Plugin, Website, Wordpress Plugins

I’ve just updated the pageactivity plugin with a small bugfix that will make it compatible with WP 2.3, credits to Emu for reporting this bug.

Also there were several people reporting problems with the NotifyMe plugin, I have tested this myself and have not experienced any difficulties what so ever..

If you are experiencing difficulties with NotifyMe in WP 2.3 I encourage you to report them at the Support Page (NOTE: be sure to give me proper debug info, the current reports im getting dont get me anywhere, I’ll need to know where exactly the error occurs and if there actually is an error message or that it simply skips ahead without doing anything.)

Also, I’ll soon be switching my blog software to Divia-CMS and I’m seriously thinking of discontinuing development on all the wordpress plugins I currently have offered, so if you are a developer and are interesting in taking over any of my wordpress plugins, please contact me.

PageActivity v1.5 Released


pa15p.jpgWell I had the plugin ready about 2 weeks ago, but I had to take my time and prepare it for release, tonight I took the time.

This version has the following changes;

  • Added onclick event to visitor names, upon click a hoverbox will appear with all the users info in it and a button to easily copy it
  • Added an option to the configuration page to modify the bot list
  • Added a link to the overview page to add a visitor agent to the botlist
  • Modified some things here and there, only minor.
  • Fixed MySQL error upon installation for some users
  • Fixed various other bugs

To update your current version just replace the file in your plugins folder.
If you experience any problems feel free to ask for support on the support page.

Wanna Learn PHP? Here’s how you do it..


One Comment | Goodies, Miscellanious, Resources

oldschoolphp.JPGSome time ago I made a little “manual” on PHP for my wife, because she kept on asking me for help on her sites and I was growing sick of it, I figured if I could get her to understand the basics of PHP, maybe I wouldn’t have to get up and help her every 5 minutes, well.. I still have to help her, and I doubt she’s going to take a look at the “manual” any time soon, but I thought I’d share it with the web, maybe someone else can put it to good use.

Click here to check out the PHP Manual (for lack of a better word..)

Note that this is not a walkthrough or anything like it, like it explains on the first page it’s a couple of pages that show you how it’s done, and from there you can draw your own conclusions, that’s how I learned PHP, that’s how I learned the basics of Python and that’s how I’m now learning a bit of C#, in my opinion it’s the best way.

On a side note, I have discontinued the development of the MyStats Wordpress plugin, as it has hardly any downloads and I have my doubts about it’s overall functionality (besides I’m busy enough as it is).

Battlestar Wallpaper


Comments Off | Goodies, Miscellanious

Battlestar Galactica Wallpaper 1920×1200Since I’m a big fan of BSG and my screen resolution is ‘out of the ordinary’ I always have a hard time finding nice wallpapers.

Yesterday I bumped into this really cool screenshot made of the TV-series and decided to make it into a wallpaper myself by getting it as smooth as possible, as TV screenshots usually aren’t that high quality.

I’m pretty pleased with the end-result, if you like me have a resolution of 1920×1200 and your a fan of BSG, then you might appreciate this aswell :)
