Finally, we have a new version of 1pixelout player for Joomla

Sat, 07/08/2010 - 03:00 — admin

That's right, we finally have a new update of 1pixelout player for Joomla and this one works on J1.5 and 1.6 version. I know some changes in the new Joomla has rendered this plugin somewhat unusable but these have been fixed in this new version.

What's more, it's been quite a significant update (added volume control and width size is changeable too) so maybe it will get it's own one page website? we'll see...

I have to say, a big thanks to Marco Del Percio who decided to rewrite most part of the outdated scripts and have add swfobject js to make it more standard compliant.

Stay tune for more updates.

Oh! here's a demo: http://www.fabc.eu/1pixelout-audio-player-demo

uploadprogress bar working under PHP5.3 on MAMP?

Tue, 06/07/2010 - 11:39 — admin

From the article i wrote about getting uploadprogress extension working on MAMP 1.9. Someone left a comment asking how to get uploadprogress php extension working under MAMP 1.9 with PHP 5.3.

So i decided to recompile it and this one seems to work, at least it is now showing up in the phpinfo page for PHP 5.3

If you want to test it out, here it is: uploadprogress 1.0.1

INSTALL:
Unzip the file and place uploadprogress.so file into directory: /MAMP/bin/php5.3/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/

Open up file in text editor: /MAMP/config/php5.3/php.ini

and add this line below:

extension=uploadprogress.so

to php.ini file where it shows the other extensions (around line 530 - 540)

At this stage initial, i haven't been able to test uploadprogress since Imagefield running Drupal 6.17 does not seem to work on PHP 5.3 (though i could be wrong?).

Please leave comment and let me know. read more »

Making Drupal Admin UI feel a little like Wordpress

drupal Admin UI

Recently, i've had a few requests from design companies asking how they can make Drupal Admin UI feel a little like Wordpress because a lot of their clients have become accustom to using Wordpress admin UI and is comfortable with administering their site with a separation of the front and backend. However, these design companies are trying to move away from Wordpress and offer Drupal as a long term solution. Furthermore, the design companies didn't want me to spend a lot of time customizing Drupal so that the admin UI is a bit more like Wordpress. read more »
