jQuery 1.3.2 causes problems at IE 8

codestyling | 20. June 2009 | 21:08

I have noticed after a lot reports from different users, that something went wrong while using jQuery 1.3.2 and Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 in normal v8 mode (not compatible mode). The effect of this bug is very annoying, all your handler using methods to show and hide portions of you webpage won’t do anything or if they are interacting, than they are not doing what you want.
Again i did a deep investigation what is the reason for and also checked, if this is known currently. I found it and will show a workaround here. Read the rest of this entry »

codestyling | 13. June 2009 | 18:34

Some time ago i was asked by a friend of mine if there is no easy solution to get pages edited at column layout without a knownledge about HTML and CSS simply at the editors. It should be a little bit flexible und easy to use. The upcomming solution was the plugin “Page Columnist”.

WordPress 2.8 changes the metabox model for admin pages

codestyling | 24. May 2009 | 15:49

Some time ago i introduced a demo-plugin which shows how to deal with metaboxes inside your own admin pages based on WordPress 2.7 and higher. I’ve tested the WordPress 2.8 version and found out, that somehow the right sidebar have had disappeared. The reason of this behavoir has been detected at the new column based layout of admin metaboxed pages. Now the user are able to configure, how many columns the admin page should consist of. This can be seen as example at the dashboard where upto 4 columns now been supported. Read the rest of this entry »

PHP function setlocale() … and numbers can be damaged

codestyling | 04. February 2009 | 04:29

At many Blogs and forums you can read the same story about localized month name issues if a theme or plugin doesn’t use the WordPress build in functions for that purpose. In most cases this will be roughly handled by just take the setlocale() function and override the OS locale settings.
There are also WordPress plugins in the wild used for blogging multi-lingual. Those plugins mostly set the locale depending on choosen language hardly without any chance to suppress it at backend. Read the rest of this entry »

codestyling | 28. December 2008 | 04:30

After i started the plugin project Codestyling-Localization i was impressed how big this will become. In the mean time the functional capabilities have been massiv extended but also the needs the user reported will grow daily.
While the plugin got a spreed at the community, i have to handle a huge number of wishes and reports now.

WordPress Category Tree Chaos at “Write Posts”

codestyling | 07. December 2008 | 19:17

While writing new posts you will realize, that something is wrong with the tree view of all categories. WordPress lists all categories as tree and i expect that the defined tree structure will be shown all the time.

Unfortunately WordPress steps in with an unexpected manner which forces the tree view to be shown damaged. The sorting of already used categories for the actual post in front of tree breaks the tree view and makes a tree view obsolete. Read the rest of this entry »

WordPress 2.6.1 loads too many script.aculo.us components

codestyling | 30. August 2008 | 00:04

If you are a developer of a plugin sometimes you have the desire to play around with effects. One thing comes up quickly: a lot of JavaScripts will be loaded and executed. Everybody using Javascripts inside blogs may know this.

I was pretty sure that I have had only parts of scripts actively requested. But WordPress has decided to load much more, than I’ve requested. So went down to the bottom of this phenomenon and found a small mistake in the WordPress code. Read the rest of this entry »

WordPress 2.6 and the Text/Diff fatal errors

codestyling | 23. July 2008 | 23:43

The current released WordPress Version newly introduces the feature of revision history tracking and management. It is able to displays differences across revisions visual too.
But the initial developer ignores the fact, that serveral provider doesn’t permit to use the PHP function ini_set() - in this case for temporary change of PHP include_path. Moreover those provider may completely disable usage of ini_set() function at all. But this results in half generated Editing Pages or complete empty (white) pages if at least the 2nd revision will be created. Read the rest of this entry »
