b2evo Importer Script

3
responses

I’ve created a trial script to import b2evo blogs to WP. The script seemed to work fine on my test installation on b2evo but since I don’t have a live installation of b2evo, the test was just that – a test 🙂 While the script does seem to allow importing a specific blog, don’t be fooled by appearances – that is just in case the feature is needed in the future :p Currently, all entries and all categories are imported to WP since I was too lazy to figure out the logic for importing just one blog since b2evo has a category based individual blog system. Anybody interested in the script can get it from here.

Captchas for the blind

No
responses

Here’s a proof of concept that I put together to illustrate my idea of using text+logic+PHP to make a simple but effective non-graphical captcha-style verification mechanism. Visit the example page, and leave your feedback. Based on feedback so far, I’m going to persue this idea and build a plugin based on it.

responses

The WP Blacklist hack has been updated to a plugin to work with WP 1.2 and has also had a few new features added such as the ability to ban IPs and the option to directly import entries directly from Jay Allen’s centralized blacklist. Actually, the latter feature was already there but this release fixes some regex incompatibilities between Jay Allen’s list and PHP. You can download the plugin here.

WordPress 1.2 Final is Out

responses

WordPress 1.2 “Mingus” is out. I am really excited about this release and will be upgrading most of my hacks and my plugins when I get a chance. This blog, as well as a couple of others will get upgraded as time goes on. In the meantime, here is a very small changelog. The rest of the *big* changelog can be found at the WordPress Wiki. That would also be a very good resource for upgrades etc. * Sub-categories: Categories can be arranged hierarchically and infinitely deep. Multiple categories combined with sub-categories gives WordPress the most comprehensive taxonomy system of any blogging software available. * OPML Export and Import: You can import and export OPML to systems like Bloglines or desktop aggregators like NetNewsWire and FeedDemon. * Automatic Thumbnail Creation System: WordPress has a refined upload feature that automatically creates thumbnails any size you want. * Encyrpted passwords and cookies: […]

FTP Pie

1
response

This is from the blurb on the page – “Your ISP offers you 30MB of disk space, but doesn’t tell you how much space is used! This tool enables you to get a usage piechart from your FTP service, showing which directories are taking the most space, and to drill down into those directories to see which are the largest files. Simply double-click on a pie segment to drill down!” I’ve been using it today to get a better picture of what’s going on with one of my domains, and it’s damned useful! It is not able to look into folders that have very restricted permissions – remember this is looking in from the outside so to speak – and I had to use the remote address as given by my ftp program for it to find the right path in, but it does do what it says. Why can’t […]

How deep is your page? – A topographic map of pages.

6
responses

Ever wished you had a tool which could tell you how deeply nested the different < div > tags in your webpage/blog were? A tool to generate topographic “maps” is the answer to my prayers. It can also help you “see” your divs physically, something for which I have had to design a page with weird, contrasty colors at first, so I can see the divs, and then go back and change the color in the css once I am done designing the physical layout. It’s a bookmarklet/favelet, which makes it all the better 🙂 Oh, and dotcanada sucks.
