A New Look

id33201.pngA New Look

For those few who make a visit here regularly then you will know I have a habit of changing the theme on the site fairly often. I think, in the near year that it has been up and running, I have been through about 7 different themes and today is the start of another. I can’t help it - it’s an addiction. I like the way it looks and then quickly tire of it. But - there was more to it this time. Having got the hang of CSS and PHP which makes all this possible, I...

Real world performance advice req.

Feb 14th, 2010
Greetings fellow Webslaves, I'm seeking real world advice about Server capabilities. I know it is a bit like "how long is a piece of string", but I REALLY need to start on this. I've had the unpleasant experience of Server meltdowns several times in a few years - and we aren't talking streaming video or big numbers. Each time it has been painful for my small/shallow pocket. Many of you no doubt know about http://plentyoffish.com. He started on a tiny box in his lounge room and grew from there to one of the biggest traffic dating sites in the world. I...

Godaddy update issues – phpMyAdmin

Jan 23rd, 2010
Dupa un update recent la ultima versiune pentru phpMyAdmin am avut surpriza sa nu ma pot loga in mysql ( baza de date ). Eroare:
#1045 - Access denied for user ‘root’@'localhost’ (using password: NO)
ce este de facut. Intrati in folderu /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/ si verificati daca aveti fisierul config.inc.php . O sa observati ca fisierul este linkat spre /etc/phpMyAdmin/config.imc.php care practic nu exista. Nu aveti decat sa copiati fiserul config.sample.inc.php in folderu /etc/phpMyAdmin/ si sa’l redenumiti in config.inc.php ! Apoi configurati variabila $cfg[’blowfish_secret’] din config.inc.php cu un sir/string aleator. Asta a fost tot. Salvati si incercati sa va logati. Ar trebui sa merga fara...

FireStats – Statistics On Fire

Jan 8th, 2010
id46801.jpgLike most people with one of these web loggy things, it’s nice to see statistics. You know the sort of thing: how many visits you’re getting; which items are getting repeat viewings and are more popular. That sort of thing. Sure, my host offers me a couple of options but they tend to be transitory and over-complicated.

As Yellow Swordfish is built on WordPress there are also a number of respectable plugins that will also do the job - usually from within the admin pages themselves. And I have tried several. The first I tried was StatTraq which...
