As a long-time fan of 2000AD I was really looking forward to a good movie translation, but this doesn't look like an ultra violent, sociological "masterpiece"...

I hope I'm wrong...

Wordpress comments in sidebar Jan 26, 11, 6:29 p.m.

Working on a wordpress-theme conversion for a client's blog.

I'm trying to get the comments for a post to show up in the sidebar instead of in the single.php. I've implemented the comments in the sidebar of other themes before so I know it's possible.

In sidebar.php I've used:
<?php comments_template(); ?>

It calls the comment and comment-form correctly, but when you try to submit a comment from the sidebar you get redirected to a blank wp-comments-post.php and the comment is not posted...

When I call the comments in the single.php, everything works just fine.

I've been looking for hours for a way to fix it...

If anyone has an idea, hint or sollution...
Much appreciated.

Work in your portfolio Nov 30, 10, 10:09 a.m.

Out of 10 projects you're hired to do, how many end up in your personal portfolio as pieces you're proud of?
In other words: Out of 10 projects, how many does the client NOT fuck up beyond belief till the point you don't even want your name involved.

And how do you think you control that ratio? Is it mainly the subtle art of guiding the client towards quality work, to educate and persuade them, or is it all in the ability to recognize shitty jobs before you take them on...

Wordpress PHP question Aug 24, 10, 9:08 p.m.

In my wordpress theme-files I use these a lot to call different classes, custom sidebars for different pages, custom headers for different categories...

<?php if ( is_home() ) { ?> ...
<?php if ( is_page("pagename") ) { ?> ...
<?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> ...
<?php if ( is_category("categoryname") ) { ?> ...

They're really helpfull to get rid of the "bloggy" look...

Now I'm looking for a way to combine
<?php if ( is_single() ) { ?>
with
<?php if ( is_category("categoryname") ) { ?>

In other words, it's no problem to assign a class to a category, but can you assign the same class to a single post from that category? A class different from the one you use on all other single pages, specifically for that category?

If anyone has any input, much appreciated as always.

"Share on Facebook" - code Jul 14, 10, 1:40 p.m.

I'm working on a "share this on Facebook" button for a wordpress website. Instead of using the standard script available on Facebook I tried this piece of code, which allows you to use a custom image:

<script>function fbs_click() {u=<?php the_permalink() ?>;t=document.title;window.open('http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=<?php the_permalink(); ?>'+encodeURIComponent(u)+'&t='+encodeURIComponent(t),'sharer','toolbar=0,status=0,width=626,height=436');return false;}</script><a href="http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=<?php the_permalink() ?>" onclick="return fbs_click()" target="_blank" title="Share This on Facebook"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/img/sharethis.gif" alt="Share on Facebook" /></a>

Works great except the link doesn't open in a small window (626/436). I can't seem to find the problem...

Someone care to take a look at this code and tell me what's wrong with it? Thanks.

PHP newbie needs help... Jul 13, 10, 6:42 p.m.

I'm working with this snippet of code:

<?php if (is_home()) { ?>
<img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/img/pic-sidebar0.gif" width="200" name="MyImage"/>
<?php } elseif (is_page('48')) { ?>
<img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/img/pic-sidebar1.gif"" width="200" name="MyImage"/>
<?php } elseif (is_page('50')) { ?>
<img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/img/pic-sidebar2.gif"" width="200" name="MyImage"/>
<?php } elseif (is_page('52')) { ?>
<img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/img/pic-sidebar3.gif"" width="200" name="MyImage"/>
<?php } elseif (is_page('54')) { ?>
<img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/img/pic-sidebar4.gif"" width="200" name="MyImage"/>
<?php } else { ?>
<img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/img/pic-sidebar5.gif"" width="200" name="MyImage"/>
<?php } ?>

It works fine, but is there a way to attribute this code to a function, and then call upon that function?

Any help much appreciated.

Robocop by Darren Aronofsky Jul 28, 08, 5:32 p.m.

"Apparently the project is not a remake, but more like a fourth RoboCop movie, which will takes place 20 years after Detroit shut down the RoboCop program..."

"Darren Aronofsky, the director of some amazing movies like Requiem for a Dream and The Fountain, has signed on to direct the newest addition to the RoboCop franchise."

http://geeksofdoom.com/2008/07/2…

Nice. I loved the original when I was a teenager... Kinda looking forward to this.
Could Aronofsky do for Robo what Nolan did for Batman?

Looking for the site... Apr 1, 08, 3:27 p.m.

Internet is "kapot" Mar 31, 08, 11:32 a.m.

One of the biggest hosting-companies of Belgium has major problems in their datacentre due to powerfailure. All sites hosted by them have been down since 4 hours ago. Most sites I ever made are hosted on their servers.

I think my telephone is about to melt away in my hands right now. And while most clients are very understanding, there are 3 of them who keep calling me every two minutes, refusing to grasp te difference between a hostingcompanie and a webdesigner, and keep shouting that I "Have to putt there fckng site back up!"

These are very tiring conversations... I can tell you.

CMS question Dec 15, 07, 6:43 a.m.

I was wondering what you guys use when you need your client to be able to update a few webpages (2 or 3 max) by himself. I don't think it warrants a full blown blog-system like wordpress or serendipity. Have any good experience with a smaller and more simple system?
Thanks in advance.

redirect question Mar 8, 07, 11:05 a.m.

Dear Sirs, Madams,

I need to make a html-page which looks fine when viewed in an I-frame, but redirects to another page when accessed directly. I think it's possible, but I can't find the code I'm looking for.
If anyone could help me out, that would be fantastic.

The Jerry Springer Opera Jan 9, 05, 3:59 a.m.

They aired it on the BCC last night. The music and singing was excellent, and some bits (the tapdancing ku klux clan!)were the funniest things i've seen in a long time.
I think it's the fact that the idea on itself is totally crazy and wrong, that makes it a small masterpiece.

Why oh wy... Dec 4, 04, 5:36 p.m.

... does an animated gif stop working in IE when you open a pop-up window. WHY?! I mean, my girlfriend recently left me after 3 years, but I can COPE with that, I can give that fact a PLACE in my life. Someone give me a reason for the gif, please, or I'll have nothing else to do but to resort to sensless violence against expensive hardware.

Thank you.

"George Lucas quite naturally believes that he wrote "Starwars", when, in reality, he was told telepathically what to write, by the very "Force" to which the films refer, as a very important step in the preparation of mankind for the long-awaited TRUTH, about the real reasons for human life on Earth, the meaning of life and its purpose."

word question Jul 6, 04, 12:29 a.m.

In microsoft word 2000, when I want to print two pages on one side, it draws a lightgrey frame around it. I know there must be an easy way to stop it from doing this. Any help would be really welcome.

weekend work Jul 4, 04, 4:38 p.m.

Friday night:
website concept, main layout, colours, first draft. Easy. Laidback.

Saturday/saturday night: coding, scripting, photoshoping, testing, retesting, some more scripting and photoshopping. Still quite laidback. There's plenty of time...

Sunday:
finishing touch, debugging, testing, having this weird feeling crawling up against you, "This is just not right... This is not good enough..." Doubts, anger, "My God... Did I really pick THIS colour? What was I thinking?"

sunday 00:13 am till probably 05:00 am-ish:
Having thrown every last byte away, starting all over again from scratch, sweat dripping from forehead, deadline breathing down neck....

I LOVE IT!!!!

Sounds familiair?

btw, in the few hours of entertainment I gave myself this weekend, I chose to go rent "Underworld" on DVD.

Yeah.
