A Very Odd WordPress Remark

I just got the most weirdest comment made on WordPress today, that is:

(Email)
I’ve had a play with 2.6 it still isn’t an advance on the current live versions that we’re currently using

(IM)
i’m shockled how much i hate the new version

What?!!! When did any given group of developers or software companies created a new version of their product that is worse than the previous one? Especially WordPress, having a great attention these days.

Simply compare the two versions “Create New Post” page

The Color of Money

Its the end of the month, payday on my part time job. And this is 50++ hours of work, isn’t that nice? I got it cash, though quite a hazard walking with this on the streets, they release it on time. Most especially, they’re happy with how I did.

Yes, we’re both happy. I’m thinking, this seems about 8 hours the entire week, hmmmmmm. I can do better, can I?

Using All-in-one-SEO-pack with single meta keyword / description

I installed this cool All in One SEO Pack plugin but I noticed the rendered header tags has two entries for meta description and meta keywords. If you haven’t moved your tags in the header template, those are the first meta pair from your current theme. The other two were generated by the All in One SEO Pack plugin.

To keep this from duplicating, which I’m not sure if having two versions of these metas is good or bad, I added condition in my header template to disable the static metas from my current theme.

<?php
if (!class_exists("All_in_One_SEO_Pack")) 
{ # move these metas here 
?>
<meta name="keywords" content="......" />
<meta name="description" content="......"/>
<?php
} 
?>

And if you deactivate the plugin, these hardcoded metas from your plugin will work instead.

Another Monday

It was a nice weekend, but checking on how much work still needs to be done – roughly 90% (grrrrrrrrrrr). This is too much procrastination. Don’t know why. Perhaps an aftershock of what happened last saturday. Anyway, here’s what I found

1 The word itself comes from the Latin word procrastinatus: pro- (forward) and crastinus (of tomorrow).

2 Psychologists often cite procrastination as a mechanism for coping with the anxiety associated with starting or completing any task or decision.

Ok, I prefer the latin stuff, simple! :D

Meeting ALICE?

Ok, Just before I’m off to bed, I received an email saying….

… so, we’ve decided that he will turn ALICE over to you and you can finish it off. ***j** will send you the ALICE files this evening and then I’m sure that you’ll find a way to get it working on Ning.

More work! More fun! But can I still do it? Urrgghh!
