Five of my WordPress clients site’s were hacked last weekend. Their sites had to be taken down until I could fix the security breach. Most of these clients were not being negligent and ignoring their core, theme and plugin updates, they were checking frequently in the WordPress dashboard and making the updates. The problem was […]

I love Coda as a text editor. I’ve been using it for years. I was hoping that they had an extension to work with Symfony. I haven’t found one. Please let me know if you know of one. I did, however, find a few things to add on. I found a Coda plugin that will

Most of my clients are on shared hosting. I advise the start-ups I work with to start on a good, respectable (just about anything besides GoDaddy or HostGator) shared hosting and save the expense. I’ve heard some people say they can’t use Symfony on their shared hosting because Symfony requires command line access to use

The only way I’ve been able to bring up the Symfony Demo home page is to use the app_dev.php and use the dev environment. In other words, going to the ‘/’ URI hasn’t been working unless I use the dev environment. If my domain is example.com, then example.com/ is not working – it gives a

I love the SyntaxHighlighter plugin which allows me to showcase my code. I also love the options available, especially the one I use for highlighting certain lines of the code. Today I was writing a post and wanted to highlight a range of lines – lines 3 through 7. I assumed I could just use

I’m still trying to work through the Getting Started tutorial and I’m finding that it is apparently out of date. Or at least it’s showing the wrong code with the wrong version. The examples in the tutorial do not work for me. I’m using version ‘2.57 app/dev/debug’. I found the version using the following on

I remember when I first started using Symfony 1.0 in a PHP web development shop. We had backend programmers, front-end developers and designers. The designer would create the design. Then, the front-end developer would create the html/css with place-holders for the dynamic data from the design. And then I would go in and replace the

My first step in learning Symfony is to go through the Getting Started Big Picture tutorial. I followed the instructions to install Symfony, but immediately ran into a problem when I tried to execute the new Symfony command. I got a ‘permission denied’ error. I had to change the permission to 755 on the /usr/local/bin/Symfony

I finally got shipping on WooCommerce set up for one of my clients. It was rather difficult to figure out how to make it work exactly. I know that WooCommerce offers a table rate shipping extension, but I, nor my client, wanted to invest $200 in a plugin that we weren’t sure would work for
