I have going back and forth w/ Beau Lebens today after reading his How To blog post on Dented Reality discussing his variation of the Facebook Connect application and after testing it today, it’s a very clean plug-in and it seems to work very smoothly. In his blog post he also outlines all of the […]
Facebook Connect Test
Some of you that follow my blog will remember that I have been testing Facebook Connect on my personal blog using some code written by Javier Reyes of Six Jumps that he was kind enough to share with me. I have to admit that I have struggled to get my mind around this platform but […]
Building a WordPress Plugin
Glen Stansberry posted a good guide to building a wordpress plugin on nettuts.com and I thought that it was worth re-posting here for those of you who have considered building your own wordpress plugin. It’s really good information. When it comes to adding extra functionality to a WordPress blog, WordPress users typically go and search for […]
SQL Truncate & mt_rand()
For anyone that may have wondered why the upgrade to 2.6.2 was so important, here’s a pretty good explanation I found on WordPress Developers Blog tonight. It has to do with a SQL column truncation issue that could basically alter users login credentials, etc. Stefan Esser recently warned developers of the dangers of SQL Column […]
Facebook Connect for WordPress
I was just reading on Nick O’Neil’s blog about the Facebook Connect for WordPress Plugin that is expected to be out anytime.

From […]

In theory this isn’t a complicated thing to get your […]
PHPR Project Management
I found this interesting post on the Xlinesoft forum tonight. (Best Practices) It relates to Best Practices for using PHPRunner & Subversioning. I currently don’t have a use for this in anything I am working on but thought that it was pretty interesting so I decided to include it here… —————————————————— 1.0 Summary: Setting up […]
URL String w/ Advanced Search – PHPR
I ran across something today that was pretty cool. Let’s say you are using PHPR to generate your PHP pages and code, the advanced search feature is setup by default not to give a URL in it’s results (I have wondered why this is because basic search gives you a workable URL string for building […]
PHP Development Podcasts
I am doing more and more podcasts these days on my Microsoft Zune these days. I have put together a list of my favorite PHP Podcasts for anyone that might be interested in picking up PHP or just going back and getting a refresher course on the basics. There are also a ton of other […]
Table Events Bug w/ Catalog – Registration App
I put together a class catalog and registration application a while back for a client and it’s been working great with the exception of one small bug that I can’t seem to be able to locate. I have it setup using Table Events (After Record Added) in PHPR to send an email once someone registers […]
