Stimul Media and Rx Partners relation

Filed under: reviews — Crevete @ 6:51 am

Today I signed up for two pharmacy affiliate programs: Rx Partners and Stimul Cash (former known as Stimul Media). As you know, signing up for these two is quite hard these days and you are required to have invitation code plus webmaster approval to start making money with them. Here is a conversation with the approval guy (Mark from Rx-Partners):

Add prefix to Drupal’s MySQL tables.

Filed under: code — Crevete @ 5:19 pm

You want to rename your Drupal tables by adding a prefix to them? There are about 57 tables in my MySQL database . Here’s the SQL code that will save you a couple of minutes. To add your own prefix just open up a text editor and use Find and Replace from drupal_ to your_prefix_. Because of additional modules, more tables may exist in your drupal database, just add those manually.

OpenSUSE Linux 10.3 Review

Filed under: reviews — Crevete @ 6:50 pm

Installation

Because I didn’t have any blank media to write on, I chose to install OpenSUSE from the ISO image stored on my laptop’s harddisk. To install OpenSUSE from the harddisk I first had to copy linux and initrd from the 10.3 repository to the /boot folder, and then point to them with GRUB by appending the following lines to /boot/grub/menu.lst:

title Install OpenSUSE 10.3 from the local HDD
root (hd0,2)
kernel /boot/linux
initrd /boot/initrd

Should I Switch to Linux? OpenSuSE 10.3

Filed under: uncategorized — Crevete @ 11:29 am

SuSE Linux green chameleonI’ve been a Linux admirer for quite some time now and flirted with many distros in my life. But I never completely switched to Linux as my main Operating System. Why?
Right now all your base are belong to Windows XP:

  • Opera passwords/mail/bookmarks/cookies
  • Perfect ACPI compatibility with my Laptop
  • Yahoo Instant Messaging file transfer (all your messages are belong to Yahoo Messenger too :( )
  • Direct Connect P2P file sharing with StrongDC++ (and many many other good DC clients)
  • Small, pretty, out of the box fonts and comfortable interface
  • Game compatibility

Anyway, tomorrow OpenSuSE 10.3 comes out and I was thinking this makes a great time to change. We’ll see…

Problems with AutoLink

Filed under: code — Crevete @ 6:56 am

Last night I was so pissed off I wanted to throw the laptop out the window and see if the apache feathers can make it fly.

Simultaneous MySQL server connections in WordPress don’t seem to work. The autolink plugin hooks to the core functions, opens the external link database with $open_link_db = mysql_connect(), performs table operations and then closes the connection with mysql_close($open_link_db);. Everything is fine until some (maybe not all) other functions need access to the wordpress database again. Like the sidebar for example:
Warning: mysql_error(): 6 is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /home/wordpress/public_html/autolink/blog/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 189
Theoretically this is unacceptable, but in practice the sidebar can be disabled and you get error-free output. I’ll get back to finish this plugin after I receive response from the WordPress support forum. I tell you, the automatic interlinking plugin is MONEY.

Google Gadgets – Sunday Coding

Filed under: code — Crevete @ 1:22 pm

The Family Guy Quotes Google Gadgets attract quite a lot of traffic, and developers all around the globe rush to get their hands on valuable niche realestate. Browsing trough the gadget directory, I saw many useless ”quote of the day” widgets that are simple to write and generate revenue from ads contained within. Great, so I chose my niche: quote gadgets. Wow, wait a minute! There are 1 – 24 of 200 results for quote. Fuck me! I’m not going to invest my time into writing complex gadgets, at least not right now, so I have to stick to the quotes niche. Maybe the quote topic I’m going to be in is not that crowded: Family Guy Quotes Gadget. Whell shit, 6 results 3 of wich are exacly my topic.

AutoLink WordPress Plugin RC 1

Filed under: linking — Crevete @ 12:17 pm

Today I have been working on the distant interlinking plugin for wordpress. Decided to call it AutoLink. Though it works, it’s just a sketch right now. The following functions have been implemented:

  • On the fly generation of links from words
  • Condition so that links are used only once in posts.
  • Usage of remote database
  • Condition that the matching keywords are not already linking ( <a href="">keyword</a> )
