How To Start A Blog To Earn Money Online

October 4, 2011 Leave a Comment

Blogging is a fun way for an average person to share their interests with the world. In addition to being an easy way to share information, blogging is a good way for anyone new to the internet to earn some money online.

There are several online programs that pay bloggers for displaying relevant ads to their readers, and bloggers can promote specific products and receive a percentage of each successful sale. The only reason more people aren’t blogging is because not everyone knows how to start a blog. Fortunately, starting a new blog is not difficult even if you have little internet experience and limited start up funds.

How To Choose a Topic

Decide what you want to write about when you blog. Try to pick a subject that you are comfortable blogging about, and that you will be able to confidently answer questions about. Readers prefer visiting a blog run by someone who is obviously knowledgeable about their chosen subject. If you are starting your blog primarily to make money, use Google’s free Keyword Checking Tool to find out how many people search for information on your chosen subject each month. The higher the number, the greater your chances are of receiving a large number of monthly visitors. [Read more...]

Hide The Magento Region Field In Checkout Progress

October 2, 2011 Leave a Comment

For some country,it’s not necessary to let your customers enter a region or province in the checkout. Today, I will tell you some knowledge about Magento and Javascript.

You must have noticed that for countries where it’s required, the text input field changes into a dropdown with the available regions. Also, this dropdown is required. That’s not functionality we will change. What we will do is hide the field when it changes to a text field. Without touching one single template.

First of all, it’s useful to know how Magento determines whether the field is required or not. It simply looks up whether there are known regions for the selected country. If there are no known regions, Magento assumes the region not required. If there are, it shows a dropdown of available regions and makes the field required. So if you don’t want to show the region field for a particular country, simply remove all regions from the table directory_country_region. [Read more...]

WordPress for Low PHP Memory Limit

September 30, 2011 Leave a Comment

Some WordPress installs run out of available PHP memory because the memory limit is set too low.
This can cause random errors or white screens that show no error at all. This is a good troubleshooting checklist for any WordPress plugin that is acting strange.

Check the PHP Memory Limit:
Install this WordPress plugin to see the PHP Memory Limit and Memory Usage in the WordPress admin dashboard:
WP-Memory-Usage

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-memory-usage/

If the memory limit is 32M or less, try increasing it:

Memory usage is dynamic, meaning that when you are uploading images, the memory usage can easily double temporarily.

Try one of these methods for increasing the amount of memory a
PHP script may consume (most people just do #3)

1. If you have access to your PHP.ini file, edit the PHP.ini
If the memory_limit shows 32M or less, try increasing it:
memory_limit = 64M;

2. If you don’t have access to PHP.ini try adding this to an .htaccess file in the root directory of your site:
php_value memory_limit 64M

3. Try adding this line to your wp-config.php file:
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '64M');

4. Talk to your web host about their recommended solution.

Magento Get a Product’s Name instead Product ID

September 29, 2011 Leave a Comment

You can get product name

$_product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load(__PRODUCT_ID__);
$manufacturer = $_product->getManufacturer();

You’ll know that you get the product’s id instead of it’s name. Which may or may not be what you would have expected. But the magento product model provides a nice helper method for getting an attributes value, in case it was not what you were expecting. Below is the code to get a product’s name instead of it’s ID.

$_product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load(__PRODUCT_ID__);
$manufacturer = $_product->getAttributeText('manufacturer');

To become an advanced JavaScript debugger, you’ll need to know about the debuggers available to you, the typical JavaScript debugging workflow, and code requirements for effective debugging. In this article, we’ll discuss advanced debugging techniques for diagnosing and treating bugs using a sample web application.

On accessibility

This article highlights strengths and differences between debugging tools, and shows how we perform advanced JavaScript debugging tasks. Our methods often rely on the mouse; if you prefer to use keyboard shortcuts, or if you rely on assistive technologies such as screen readers to interact with these tools, you should consult the relevant documentation to determine how (or if) these tools will work for you.
