@Wyck I think human mades wp-thumb plugin can specify the compression ratio

see hmn.md/introducing-wp-thumb

jpeg quality parameter

Can anyone see why this wouldn't load scripts to single posts?

if( !is_admin() && is_single() ) {
function single_scripts() {
wp_deregister_script( 'jquery' );
wp_deregister_script( 'wpuf' );
wp_register_script( 'jquery', get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory').'/libs/jquery-1.6.1.min.js' );
wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery' );
wp_register_script( 'jquery-single', get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory').'/libs/jquery.single.min.js' );
wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery-single' );
wp_register_script('global-js', get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory').'/libs/global.js');
wp_enqueue_script( 'global-js' );

@PolluxKhafra ctrl+a ctrl+ k when posting code please! arrow keys to go back and edit your messages

also you're using jquery 1.6.1, v1.7+ is out and much faster

have you asked this on the main site?

Pollux Khafra

Wont let me edit now sorry.

And no I didn't see it worthy of an actual question

Tom J Nowell

might be too early to call is_single

move the if check inside the function

test

Pollux Khafra

@TomJNowell Yeah that works. I just felt like I didn't want to add_action for the function if it's not needed but maybe I misunderstanding what that does.

@TomJNowell that's an interesting plugin, never knew about it, you can also just set it nativity to 100% using the example in toscho's answer

Q: Sort custom post type list table by display name of a user id stored as post meta value

I have a custom post type named domicile. Each post (domicile) has an owner (not the author). Owners are users with a custom role. I store the user id as a post meta value (dmb_owner) for the domicile post type. How do I sort the list table (wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=domicile) by the display n...

@Wyck they've got retina support in the pipeline too, probably using the server side thing mullenweg used

@TomJNowell Thanks for that link. Seems like there's still room to extend the plugin :)

boss took revenge on drive back, eh @TomJNowell ? lol

Tom J Nowell

@Rarst hmmm?

@Tarendai @lydiajo oh my! We were back by 10pm. May have slightly broken some speed limits... #wcuk

Oh my, back home at half 12, and @lydiajo is still driving!!? #wcuk

me and lydia were in a hire car there and back so we could work on yourwebsiteishorrible.com rather than in his car

@kaiser are you trying to develop github.com/franz-josef-kaiser/WP-Plugin-Directories further or just put github updating into it?

kaiser

12:15

@TomJNowell Sry, have been away. And yes, I'm developing it further. @ChristopherDavis already gave me access to the main repo and asked if I want to take it over. So far I got a stable version, but I don't get around the last bit of UI improvement (too less hooks and such - would need a complete copy/paste-overwrite of cores plugins list table extension).

kaiser

12:54

@TomJNowell Have you ever worked with WP-Unit?

kaiser

13:06

@All Is there an equivalent to admin_url() for a path?

// Path to the /wp-admin/includes directory - as "generic" as possible:
ABSPATH.trailingslashit( ltrim( ADMIN_COOKIE_PATH, '/' ) ).ltrim( WPINC, 'wp-' );

↑ ...

Rarst

@kaiser isn't wp-admin supposed to be immutable related to ABSPATH?

core just does ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/

kaiser

@Rarst No, not really. This might change in the future. Currently there's no save way to alter it, but it could come.

Rarst

well, anything can change in the future... what core does right now is kinda best available

kaiser

I'm searching through class WP_Filesystem_Base and not sure, where this gets used, but it has a wrapper for ABSPATH called abspath(). Maybe this is accessible via a global? Dunno if this makes sense...

Hm. Even there you can find the hard coded crap with themes/ ... soooo annoying!!

@Rarst Ok. ABSPATH.'wp-admin/includes/ seems to be the way. Meh.

Tom J Nowell

13:53

@kaiser nope

kaiser

14:11

I got an action that is automatically added when I include ~/wp-admin/includes/ms.php (site_admin_notice). Problem is, that I'm unable to remove it. Any idea how I could get rid of it?

nvm. got it.

kaiser

Admin Bar styling is simply stupid css... doesn't even integrate with default wp admin styles.

Hey, anyone met Matt? is he tall too? (appears to be) Heard Jaquith is 6'4 o_O

just a lil curious :P

Tom J Nowell

@AahanKrish check the video interviews

or attend wordcamp

anu

i met Matt briefly in 2004 - he was very short then, but I've heard he paid for leg growth implants

@TomJNowell have you tried calibrating your Dell display?

video.google.com/videoplay?docid=1894820332739192341&hl=en

Tom J Nowell

17:01

@anu I did before, I tried running the callibration wizard

it made it worse!

hmm no it made it slightly better in some respects but not at all in others

it was still pitiful compared to the windows machine which required zero callibration

anu

@TomJNowell odd - i've got a LG 24" that I plug into, and it's lovely. Try a different cable?

Tom J Nowell

its the same cable

the only different part is a mini display port to hdmi adaptor

damned colour profiles

Ill try it with my TV at home

anu

@TomJNowell I've plugged my MBA into many monitors, and never had a problem - but always either VGA/DVI

Tom J Nowell

hmmmm

anu

wait, actually, my iMac is plugged into my LG using the HDMI port

although that's using a HDMI - DVI cable

I cant believe there are agencies around here still screwing people over with expensive flash sites /rant

anu

@Wyck shit agencies are shit

but a client who accepts that is equally culpable

Wyck

people just don't know any better and they get sucked in

I had a meeting this week with a newspaper that paid a fortune for a remake of their new site, all in flash.. and today another person I know launches new site..all flash money down drain

anu

@Wyck that's totally the newspaper's fault - i can understand a lone non-techie small business person getting sucked in, but there's no real excuse for a media organisation

or rather, if that's what they want, it's hard to blame the agency

Wyck

@anu I agree, maybe it's where I live, they seem to be 5 years behind, someone shows them an animated fish and they sign the deal because it looks cool

anu

@Wyck well i'm planning on moving to MTL, so I hope it stays lagging behind for a while!

Wyck

17:49

@anu MTL is not bad, very tech, but I live/work about 1.5 hours away and hardly go in the city much

anu

@Wyck ah ok, still in QC?

Elliot

hey guys, anyone knows a good responsive lightbox solution? apart from fancybox, view.js, the one in widgetkit and rlightbox?

Wyck

@anu ya, I live just north near a resort town called mont tremblant, though I grew up in mtl

Elliot

fancybox and widgetkit can't be included in themes, view.js is too heavy, and rlightbox uses too many scripts

anu

@Wyck cool - i've ski-ed at Tremblant once, go to Le Massif and Monte Ste Anne more

Elliot

17:51

there has to be another one

Wyck

@anu where are you from?

anu

@Wyck london - but my partner is from quebec city

Wyck

@anu ah nice, I have a partner that from London (lives here)

anu

@Wyck hah- we're the opposite

Wyck

heh, not wordpress though, it's an app I work on

anu

17:53

ah, not business partner - ma blonde!

Wyck

@anu im actually off right this moment to go hang out at the beach on the lake in tremblant, your missing out:)

anu

@Wyck thanks! weather here is shit

Wyck

been crazy here 35+ all week no rain

anu

we're buying a small place in MTL this year so we can spend summers there

Wyck

@anu ah know where?

prices are slowsly dropping this year in the city

anu

17:54

iles des soeurs

Wyck

nice, , my house if for sale if you want a retreat in the mountains :)

anu

@Wyck hah! well it was a place in the city or a chalet by a lake - the city won! it's being built, and should be ready by Xmas!

Wyck

@anu buy a scooter though, the traffic is madness around there, one reason I never go into the city anymore

anu

@Wyck yup - been going to MTL for 10 years or so, have noticed traffic getting much worse

scooters aren't great in the winter though!

Wyck

@anu spiked tires!

anu

17:59

@wyck frozen balls

Wyck

heh get used to it

anu

@Wyck not sure I ever will

Wyck

@anu ya, summer is great though, we should grab a beer when your in town

anu

@Wyck definitely. not sure i'm going to be over before Dec - I'll ping you

@Wyck are you on twitter?

Wyck

@anu no I don't have a personal twitter

anu

18:05

@Wyck no worries - I can always ping you on here nearer the time - have fun at the beach!

Wyck

@anu cheers

@All I got an annoying problem with [this mu plugin](https://gist.github.com/3065933)

* Purpose: Change the language of the UI with an option form field in the admin bar.
* Needed:
* * `languages` folder in the `WP_CONTENT_DIR` and min. [one lang.mo file](http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_in_Your_Language) aside from `us_US`.
* * `mu-plugins` folder (or whatever is defined as `WP_MUPLUGINS_DIR`.
* Problems:
* * When changing the language, the _old_ language appears - seems that I've something wrong with my thoughts. Where's my failure?

Anyone willing to give this ↑ one a short try and maybe lend me a helping hand?
