  • WP Modules available soon

    Due to the domain transfer (from www.idahocline.net to www.idahocline.info) and the layout changes, I still have to integrate all my WordPress add-ons in a page.

    Normally this week-end, I will add a new section called « WordPress Add-Ons ». On that page, all the previous hacks will be available for download.

  • The Star Wars Trilogy on DVD !

    As announced yesterday on starwars.com ! Finally after..euh…..a long time !
    The most requested films for the DVD format will finally become a reality this September as Lucasfilm Ltd. and Twentieth Century Fox present the eagerly-awaited Star Wars Trilogy for the ultimate home entertainment format. The four-disc collection will be released on September 21 in the U.S. and Canada, with international release dates following closely.
    « We know how long fans have waited for this release and how much they have been looking forward to it, so everyone has been working overtime to make sure that the Star Wars Trilogy on DVD is an awesome experience, » said Jim Ward, Vice President of Marketing and Distribution for Lucasfilm Ltd. and the DVD collection’s Executive Producer.

    Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back and Episode VI: Return of the Jedi will be available in a four-disc set that includes a bonus disc filled with all-new special features — including the most comprehensive feature-length documentary ever produced about the Star Wars saga and never-before-seen footage from the making of all three films. Each of the three films in the Star Wars Trilogy has been digitally restored and re-mastered by THX for superior sound and picture quality.

    « First and foremost, the DVDs will deliver the very best possible sound and picture and take advantage of everything the medium can offer. On top of that, we are creating added-value material that gets inside the creation of the Star Wars films in a fresh and fun way, » Ward said. « We want watching this DVD collection to be as memorable as seeing the movies for the first time. »

    The films of the Star Wars Trilogy will be available exclusively as a collection and will feature Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround EX. All three films are closed-captioned and subtitled in English, French and Spanish in the U.S. Internationally, sound and subtitling specifications will vary by territory.

  • User Tracking Usage Hack

    I will create a « User Tracking » addon to WordPress. As confirmed by a post : PHP User Tracking, it seems that could interesting to have that functionnality available.

    So as I already thought about that kind of tools. I gonna integrate the TFS tools and wp-stat from GamerZ.

    This hack will allow you to « track » a user. By « track », I mean know what a specific user (according a cookie) has view (which posts), from which country (s)he is coming from, which browser (s)he is using, which operating system, ….

    Let’s say normal website statistics AND also WP dedicated statistics.

    For the « view » part, I think that the best location for that is the « Admin » Area.

    It is still under analysis so keep my posted if you see something else, don’t hesitate ! ;o)

  • Download Hacks for WP

  • New modules foreseen for WP

    Several people ask to have an integration of several « pictures galery » systems in WP. As I already wrote the Coppermine Integration. I will try to integrate few other systems as 4Images gallery and Gallery.

    The basic functionnalities will be the same as for Coppermine :

    – Random pictures for an album
    – List of all albums with x random pictures for each sub-albums.

    I hope I will have the time to write those add-ons this week-end.

  • New Layout of the site

    Implementation of the Release 2 of the layout of the site.

    All « blocks » on the left and on the right are now expandable. Few other internal changes as the integration of TFS WebStatistics and soon the merge with wp-stat…

    As usual, the main issue for me is the time to work on…..

  • WordPress 1.0 Installed

    The upgrade to WordPress 1.0 is done now.

    As you can see no visible change except the link where the « link category » is no more displayed.

    The major advantages of this version are :

    • allocate several categories to one post.
    • better admin interface
  • Compliant with Standard

    As Matthias wrote to notify me about a tiny syntax issue. I immediately fixed it. So I am proud to say that the compliancy of my site has been increased !

    I was using <style type= »text/css » title= »layout » media= »Screen« > instead of <style type= »text/css » title= »layout » media= »screen« >
