Our trip to Aulani in Oahu was spectacular, I can’t saw enough great things about that place, it was honestly everything that I’d hoped…
iOS6 Maps is not amazing, which is humerously documented here, nor is it great, neither was Google Maps for iOS 3/4/5/6 and I honestly…
Code snippets that make it from gisthub to here.
Ran into a problem tonight where simply applying ‘the_content’ filter to some content wasn’t getting any oembed magic. After a look at WP_Embed class I quickly found that WP does the right thing and caches the filtered content, so without a PostID is quites before it does any work. Here’s a quick hack to get that…
I was getting some strange error tonight when installing ruby for my redmine install. At first phusion was reporting this error no such file to load — mysql (MissingSourceFile) So i figured I needed the mysql gem, well that returned an error too: # gem install mysql Building native extensions. This could take a while……
Setting up a new server on MediaTemple (ve) tonight and I was getting some errors with webmin and Ubuntu 8. Apache2 was running fine but I couldn’t get webmin to start/stop the service. The error I was getting was: “Failed to start apache” “etc/lsb-base-logging.sh: line 22: /dev/console: Permission denied” … The solution was simple: When…
SVN ( version control ) is one of the key ingredients in my development process, not because I work with other developers and version control is necessary but I need to keep things organized and in sync with other development environments ( e.g. my laptop ). In a future post I’ll explain the setup, since…

The solution I came up with this afternoon is pretty basic and if there’s a better alternative I’m open to hear them. Place this after…
It’s been a long time since I worked on a JSP project and I’m now tasked with the setup of a workspace in Eclipse, this time I’m solely using OS X to develop on. Here are the steps I took to setup my local workspace. Download the Apache Tomcat Found under Binary Distribution as a tar.gz…
Similar to how GDGT.com has it’s loading.gif while the page completes this method will do something very similar. Right after the body I include the image inside a div: <div id="loading-image"> <img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/ajax-loader.gif" alt="Loading…" /> </div> Of course I’m using wordpress so you might need to include a different path for your ajax-loader.gif.…
Over the last couple days I’ve had the dilemma of trying to figure out how to word-wrap WordPress post content into two columns. Here is an example of what I needed to produce. As you can tell it shouldn’t be too difficult, but there’s a crux that I’ll bring up after the first solution. The…
One of the very first things I had to do to start using the Carrington Theme Framework was replace the admin menu with my own. For some reason, already ranted here in the forums, the core includes the admin panel. Remember, you shouldn’t hack away at carrington-core/admin.php or any other core file ( if you…
I just noticed a trend recently ( maybe not too recent ) on how to make your WordPress Post URLs short for sharing, especially with Twitter’s character limit. I stumbled across Derek‘s post just the other day through a delicious share of Dean’s and since I’m working on a project with custom re-writes I thought…
