Just got your hands on the cool new HTC Touch Pro (a notch up, in many cases, to the HTC Mogul)? Well, if you are cruising the web, you will come across many sites that tell you (or at the very least, suggest to you) which “Applications” are must have for your phone. Here, however, I am going to give you my list–which is more on a hardware side of things.

Assumptions:
Before we begin, it is assumed here, that you have the HTC Touch Pro (and not the “Fuze”), and your carrier is Sprint. I have not tested this method with any other HTC model (or any other Windows Mobile running phone, for that matter), neither have I tested this with any other carrier.

Introduction:

If you are wondering how to get wireless access for your laptop/computer, and you have HTC Touch Pro, you have come to the right place! Here, I will show you exact steps you need to take in order to score some Wi-Fi!

What you will need:

1. HTC Touch Pro (duh!)

2. Laptop/Computer (duh! duh!)

3. PHM RegEdit

You downloaded the cool eye-candy app called BeeJive for your Windows Mobile phone, Transferred it over, Installed it, and the first thing it asked was to activate, to which you said yes (You cannot use the App if you have not “activated” it). However, instead of being activated, it gave you the following error:

Could not activate beejive. Unable to get key…

Yes? Well, then, follow the following steps and you are almost sure to get the app off and running.

CSharp has always fascinated me… If you know me, you know at least this much about me (and and the love (infatuation?) I have for this particular language). It is no surprise: when I first took up programming, I readily fell in love with Visual Basic, taught myself the basics, and done my very first big-time project in that language. C#, being the same type in terms of RAD, was my next love of the life. So, in order to gain proficiency (or at least some knowledge), I started my first project in it (details soon, check out CodingRush.com).

Along the way, I came across the richtextbox (RTB); this control does not “Auto-Scroll” by default, so in case you want to do something like a log window, your end-user will have to manually scroll to the end, in order to check out the latest log/notice etc. So I was looking for a way to achieve this and found the following:

At my workplace, I am given a project that’s written in ColdFusion, and I need to convert it to PHP, using Oracle as the back-end. While converting one of the files, I came across a very good (mind engaging) puzzle, which was to this effect:
The page needs to have 5 drop-down select boxes, and each drop-down menu should be populated with a list of “items” gathered/fetched from the Database.

Now, if you are a dirty/lazy coder, you can just go-ahead and loop over an fetched array 5 times, creating 5 select boxes each time, however, a smarter solution would be to “reuse” the code!

Basics/Background:

Here you are… with your latest and greatest plugin that you have labored after so hard, all completed and ready for it’s day in glory. However, how do you get the word out? Sure, you can advertise it and, hope that someday, someone will google for something that is relevant to your plugin, and google will take the user to your plugin. However, what if you want to make an immediate impact? Best way: Have your plugin be listed in the Wordpress Plugins Database. This is the best and easiest way for you to gain some exposure for your plugin.

However, you will need to jump through couple of hoops in order to have your plugin appear inside the Plugins Database.

Hello and welcome all!

In this Guide, I will show you how you can develop plugins for the brand-spankin’-new latest version of WordPress 2.7.

What are we going to develop?
     A Plugin, that will add “Topic Icons” inside the content of each post.

Hasn’t this already been done before?
     Yes… yes it has been. It’s called “WP Post Icon” and you can find that plugin here at Linewbie’s WordPress Plugins Page

Then why re-invent the wheel?

• To have it compatible with WordPress 2.7.
• For added functionality.
• For learning to make plugins (you gotta start somewhere!)

So, let’s begin!

This should be a common knowledge for all wordpress users, or so I feel like that. Everyone wants to have “pretty” links for their blogs/sites as oppose to the ugly ones.

A quick description of what I am talking about (Permalinks):
In case you didn’t already know (it could be that you just started with WordPress), WordPress gives you an option to have your links be re-written from:
http://www.yoursite.com/?p=123 to
http://www.yoursite.com/2009/01/06/sample-post/ or
http://www.yoursite.com/2009/01/sample-post/ or
http://www.yoursite.com/archives/123

OR,

you could custom write the re-write rule.

So, I didn’t like any of the given options, and so I re-wrote mine as follows:
“/%category%/%postname% ”

Noticed anything wierd?

So… you got your wordpress all pimped out with great plugins that are available from the wordpress db. One of the most useful plugins to have is the “Category Icons Plugin“. One (main) reason why you would want to have this plugin, is to show ‘graphically’ what category your post/article/note/blog (or whatever you wanna call it) belongs to.

One of the most overlooked feature of this Plugin, is the option of having multiple category icons. This how-to is geared towards that feature. So, what if you wanted to modify your Category Icons Plugin such that it showed Trails (i.e., breadcrumb)?

In this quick how-to, I will show you how you can modify/hack this plugin that will allow you to show trails.
