Colin Seymour's Tech Blog in which I write about technical subjects that interest me, which is usually web dev and Unix/Linux based, with the odd smatterring of Mac OSX. Windows is rarely mentioned.

    Warum WordPress 2.5.1 so eilig veröffentlicht wurde... [3]

    http://talkpress.de/artikel/warum-wordpress-2-5-1

    . Keine Angst, WordPress fragt dich nach dem neuen Eigentümer aller alten Beiträge. Und wenn du schon dabei bist, ändere gleich auch noch den Datenbank-Präfix abweichend zum Standardwert wp_. Dafür gibt’s ein Plugin und eine ausführliche Anleitung. Ein vorher angefertigtes aktuelles Backup der Datenbank ist nervenschonend. Und noch was Wichtiges kam gerade auf dem anderen Kanal: Matt Mullenweg hatte neulich Austern und Cobb Salad.

    Drobny problem przy zmianie prefixu tabel

    http://blog.migol.net/2008/04/27/drobny-problem-przy-zmianie...

    nazw tabel, a SSH + Vim ze zmianą pliku konfiguracyjnego. Po skończeniu wchodzę na bloga i wszystko świetnie, gdyby nie fakt, że nie mam dostępu do panelu administratora. Po otrząśnięciu się z WTF poszukałem informacji na Google i znalazłem wpis opisujący ten problem. NIestety programiści WordPress’a zapędzili się z prefix-ami i nie są one używane tylko przy nazwach tablic, ale i w paru wpisach w nich (to jest właśnie ten bug w projekcie). Na szczęście te poprawki pozwoliły mi dostać się do panelu

    Testing a SmugMug plugin

    http://voytek.jarnot.org/blog/2008/02/24/testing-a-smugmug-p...

    ’ll probably add this lightbox for WordPress dealie, as well as optional links to the image in SmugMug and/or the album in SmugMug where the image resides… Big thanks to Colin Seymour, without his phpSmug library I would have had to write my own; and since I’ve been working exclusively with Java for the last 10 years, and haven’t even looked at a line of php code since 1999, that would’ve sucked. Oh well, since I

    Planet OpenID

    http://planet.openid.net

    that site was unavailable for quite some time. There is a note now that the author, Ben Dodson, will build a new version. So if people don’t want to rely on existing providers and build their own, they should use phpMyID for the time being. Here is a step by step introduction on setting up an OpenID server with it.
