Finally featured images in WordPress for iOS

Filled under:

Finally featured images in WordPress for iOS

If there was something I had demons in WordPress for iOS was the fact that it will not support featured images .

" Thanks "to this, if an entry creabas applying WordPress for iOS, if your theme uses featured images functionality integrated forced you to open your WordPress site before publishing to add it.


Fortunately this is no longer an obstacle for the upgrade of WordPress for iOS yesterday, specifically version 3.2 , has joined Featured image support .

The list of new features in this version is this:


  • Featured image support, can determine a default size in the application settings.
  • Notices "push" too hosted WordPress on your own server, because until now only had ads for sites WordPress.com. That if, to "enjoy" these ads have to be installed on your WordPress at least version 1.8.2 of JetPack plugin, but still will not warnings.
  • More accessible settings, and previously only on device settings, and now you're in the settings page of the same application, so if you want to change any option you do not have to leave WordPress for iOS and reenter.
  • Stability improvements, especially in statistics.
  • Troubleshooting, in this case more than 70
Again, enough reason to upgrade is not it?

The 10 Commandments WordPress Developer

Filled under:

The 10 Commandments WordPress Developer
Being WordPress developer requires no special skills other than those programmed in PHP or CSS, but if there is advice that can make a difference and develop solid developments and, above all, no problems for itself or its clients.



That is why I have seen fit, so successful are the tips, translate this list compiled by Floris P. Lof :

1. Always define WP_DEBUG to true during development

You would not believe the amount of code error messages that you receive from plugins and themes. All these warnings can cause low memory errors, which will reduce the performance of the site to consume more memory than necessary.WP_DEBUG is also a very useful tool to find out if you are using obsolete functionality.

2. Stick to standards and CSS code WordPress

The WordPress standards have been established after years of experience. If you abide by these rules will get a clean and easily readable code for yourself and others.Hence the slogan "code is poetry" ..

3. Comment your code

Your code must not only be easy to leer by others but you should be able to understand why the rest either chose to write code in a particular way. There are many ways to dress a saint, but explain your choice as described in the Codex .

4. Learn how the "core" of WordPress, read the actual lines of code

You should know how WordPress function internally. When you load the plugins?, When are requests to the database?, When will you upload files of the songs? and all that. You can learn a lot from reading the "core" of WordPress.

5. Use functions and internal APIs whenever possible WordPress

No reinvents the wheel, before learning to write code if there is a function or procedure that is already in the "core". Learn the "core", as I said before, and discover how everything works. You'll be surprised what you will find there. Some examples would be these utility functions .

6. Put your code praenomen

There are many people who write code for WordPress themes and plugins. And it is quite possible that your function name, or class variable used is the same as another person. So you should always put praenomen as your initials or your website. For example (AW):

aw_nombredefuncion ();

7. Never trust user input! Sanitize & escape!

This is a major problem, now and perhaps forever. WordPress is loaded with tools that allow you to write secure sites. A good idea would be the chapter 6 of this book . You had it right?

8. Use nonces

This would be an extension of the commandment anteriior. Use "nonces" ensures all the features you need your forms. Check this page Codex

9. Locate your code

In Europe, unlike in America, we are used to writing in multiple languages, so it is not surprising that a client asks you a theme or plugin is available in another language or dialect.

So write your code thinking it "internacionalizable". This will add another language in the future easier.

10. Performance, performance, performance

We need to develop high performance sites. In all the code you write or you include either a request to the database, code PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript or attachment support for images, always keep in mind the performance. Every nanosecond account.

Limits the number of widgets

Filled under:


When you develop a WordPress theme for a client everything is perfect until you deliver .

I mean, for little to stop " playing "the customer is almost always the temptation to add widgets and little to be excited, too, and eventually add destroy the structure.


And you can not always get a customer has limited user permissions, because often want at least the ability to add widgets advertising or whatever.

And of course, as you add widgets WordPress infinite so the temptation is great.

In these cases could at least limit how many widgets you can add installing the plugin Limit Widgets that, once installed, provides a configuration page where you set the maximum number of widgets for each sidebar.

Simply, when you want to add a widget more than allowed will not be possible , not " stick "to the bar by dragging. By the way, if anyone had already defined above in more bar around the set appear in red, as a warning.

Cookies, WordPress and legislation

Filled under:


With recent legislative changes in relation to e-commerce websites in general and it is becoming more difficult to have a website up legally, but everything is to respect the privacy of users right?.

There are cases extremely rigorous, as the United Kingdom, perhaps the most punctilious in the notice of cookies to visitors, but where it gets tricky is in Spain especially , because we have to add the notice requirements of storage of cookies to here, because we are more cool than anyone, virtually any website and blog, e-commerce is considered , so that only in rare cases would be exempted from implementing the legislation on cookies.


But not me, because as well quote my friend Paul Burgess , an expert in new technologies ...

Cookies Law (or Law Cookie) requires professional web owners to prevent cookies being installed on the computers of their users unless they have given prior informed consent to it.

So what do we do with our WordPress?

Well the first thing is to know what cookies stored WordPress that in a standard installation, and no active plugins, were these:

Cookies safety, the WordPress secret keys and session are these:

AUTH_KEY
SECURE_AUTH_KEY
LOGGED_IN_KEY
NONCE_KEY
The default duration of these keys is:

48 hours or closing the browser
14 days to check the box on the access of " remember me "
You can change this behavior, even the cookie expiration session manually or plugins, expanding or reducing the time.

Some ways to modify these times would be:


  1. Change session cookies manually in the file wp-config.php , which forces a new access for all users to delete cookies earlier. The new cookies get them here
  2. Using a plugin like Set login timeout to let you modify those default times.

Then there are other cookies for comments, also temporary, that are stored on the visitor's computer under certain conditions, these:

comment_author
comment_author_email
comment_author_url
The duration of these cookies depends fundamentally on the visitor's browser settings , saved only if you have configured in the browser. Although the current legislation should warn if or if .

To this end, for a notice of acceptance of cookies is not worth storing of having a privacy page ( here an example of privacy page that includes the Dart cookie), but we must warn the visitor and have your express acceptance .
the virtual court

There are some plugins that promise to offer this but the truth is that I have tried almost all and are a full . decent only thing so far is this script , you can see up in the web of Abanlex lawyers (the company of my buddy Paul).

But, as I have noted above, this is not always true, because there are plugins that add their own cookies , any surveys, for example. So if you want to know what your cookies using WordPress , with all plugins installed, you can create a function that, on one page, do you list them all and their values ​​and times.

The first is to add this code to your plugin function or file functions.php of the theme you're using:

function get_cookies( $paras = '', $content = '' ) { if ( strtolower( $paras[ 0 ] ) == 'novalue' ) { $novalue = true; } else { $novalue = false; } if ( $content == '' ) { $seperator = ' : '; } else { $seperator = $content; } $cookie = $_COOKIE; ksort( $cookie ); $content = "<ul>\n"; foreach ( $cookie as $key => $val ) { $content .= '<li>' . $key; if ( !$novalue ) { $content .= $seperator . $val; } $content .= "</li>\n"; } $content .= "</ul>\n"; return do_shortcode( $content ); } add_shortcode( 'cookies', 'get_cookies' );
              :                                                                                   
And then you want to put this shortcode to display the cookies:

[ cookies ]

At least you'll know, and your visitors, if you put that information on your privacy page , the cookies stored on your WordPress.

Oh, and for Megafans of social media and the mother who bore him , to know that if you have corporate Facebook page there are also breaking the law of Cookies .

And now the little question of yore ...

I'm telling you now, not yet, because I'm still trying to find the best way, but I think I decantare by scritp aforementioned.

Because person very well remember certain things, if he has any association with them, created a logo, a small image, which was deposited in the human mind, and thus reminded of a particular company. When you talk about the Coca-Cola Company, in the head immediately pops up a small bottle of red, as if to say McDonald's, we remember the big gold letter M and the scary clown. Correctly creates a logo, do not give potential customers forget about their company. But unfortunately, not all the logos are a good tool to be reminded. There is a bad logo, the sight of which do not really want to go to that firm. This article contains 10 failed logos that are actually used so far, but unfortunately spoil the first impression.


1. Logo church association. It was created in 1973, and by the way won the competition in Los Angeles, but unfortunately today the logo may be considered ambiguous. This is a prime example of the fact that even in the field of trade marks have to think about the current trends and developments.
