WooCommerce Arrange Order of Product Images
I recently started working with WooCommerce for a client project. WooCommerce is an eCommerce solution for WordPress that was forked from Jigoshop. There are now many eCommerce solutions to choose from with WordPress. My personal favorites are Shopp and WooCommerce coming in a close second. It really depends on the type of project I’m working on as it should for you as well.
Disable WordPress from Automatically Inserting Paragraph Tags
By default, WordPress automatically inserts paragraph tags into your content while using the post editor – this often gets in the way when you’re trying to space out your text, and could also create validation issues.
DJ Divsa Gives Back with Eclectica II
My favorite DJ, DJ Divsa, recently released his latest Mixtape on his web site. He generally gives his podcasts and mixtapes away for FREE. However, this time he’s asking for donations with all proceeds going to Butterfly Promotions:
A grassroots organization based in Toronto dedicated to building mass awareness of atrocious living conditions that exist in the lower income areas of the city.
Simplify: Spotify Mini Player for Mac
I’ve become a big fan of Spotify ever since they launched in the U.S. a few weeks ago. Service reliability has improved and the social features are starting to become useful now that my friends are signing up. Granted, It’s a much better experience after you pony up a few bucks a month to become a premium member.
However, with that being said, there’s a lot to be desired from their dedicated Mac player. Sometimes I hate the distraction of working with the full app all the time. I wish Spotify would integrate a mini version of their player like iTunes. Hopefully we’ll see something from them eventually.
Spotify: What’s up with random songs not playing?
I recently signed up for a premium account with Spotify. Overall, I’ve enjoyed the service so far. However, now that I’m a paying customer I’m pissed off that some tracks won’t play. No, I’m not talking about the tracks that aren’t licensed to play in the United States. Spotify usually provides an alert when that happens. Rather, I’m referring to those songs that simply don’t play at all and no reason is given.
WordPress: Multiple Single.php Template Files
I recently ran into an issue on a WordPress project that required multiple variations of the “single.php” template file based on a blog category. Unfortunately, there isn’t any built in support for multiple “single.php” template files like there are for categories. As a result, the quickest workaround is to convert your “single.php” into a PHP If Statement.
Internet Comment Policies of Indianapolis Major Media Outlets
Over the years I’ve noticed a growing trend, particularly on news based websites, of Internet commenters leaving racially tinged or controversial messages often not shared in public discourse. Internet users continue to hide behind the freedom of anonymity that has graced the Internet since it’s inception. However, according to a New York Times Article published in April, major online news publications are changing their comment policies to help keep opinions more civil.
Slacker Radio Service Delivers Viruses
I’ve been a huge fan of Internet radio service Slacker since I first read about the service on Techcrunch back in 2007. Since that time the service has gone through some growing pains with their team moving away from hardware devices and dedicating all resources to their software on third-party devices. I can’t blame them since their G2 Hardware player isn’t very reliable and the mobile device market continues to grow.
Please allow me to introduce myself…
A picture of “Benny Blanco from the Bronx” may have been more fitting since that’s usually the first question I get from fellow dudes that meet me. Have you ever seen that movie Carlito’s Way? Honestly, the first time I was asked was in 9th grade by a freshman football coach and it was awkward.
