So, would a question about deployment and wp-supercache be on topic for WPSE? Trying to come up with a good way of handling wp-supercache's wp-content/advanced-cache.php (which has an absolute path in it), that would obviously fail if deployed to a different server. But not sure if it's really WP related, or just a general deployment issue

Rarst

@anu fine as for me

anu

cool. i'll add a question here - thx

Q: Multilingual wordpress site

I want my blog in multiple language, I have tried qtranslate but its not translating anything on my test blog[on local]. so I moved to another plugin named Multilingual Press I have followed everything carefully, I have created site network. everything is working as supposed to but its not transl...

kindly update/change, if anything is confusing to the masses.

Do not update to 3.4.2 if you need this: Ticket #21829 Custom Field "Update" button failure

Rarst

we are long way from silent updates, aren't we... :)

toscho

I will never allow that.

Tom J Nowell

@Sisir the 'social' plugin will do that

Brady

13:22

@toscho same here. will never be able to charge a client more money for doing updates

instead we would have to change our business model to, Charge silly amounts for when you break it.

Tom J Nowell

Opinions!

black or red/orange?

Rarst

@Brady charge money for updates... most of the time I can't even convince to update at all

toscho

print '<p>Post ' . ( $wp_query->current_post + 1 ) . ' of ' . $wp_query->post_count . ' Posts</p>';
print '<p>Post ' .   $wp_query->current_post + 1   . ' of ' . $wp_query->post_count . ' Posts</p>';

Note the different results …

@TomJNowell PINK

Tom J Nowell

toscho

awww

Brady

13:36

@Rarst we dont charge just for updates. we charge for blocks of our time. Most of that time is used on updates

Tom J Nowell

@all but no, pink isn't really an option, black? Or red/orange?

toscho

shouldn’t there be a comma after websites?

Tom J Nowell

@toscho Let me get the basic design before I go over the text, I'm getting that looked over by a copy writer once I've got a final frontpage design

toscho

lemme do yt, my Englisch is allmoßt perfekt

Brady

@toscho your hired!

marfarma

@Jack see comment on your question

@TomJNowell red/orange -- not pink

Tom J Nowell

15:01

@marfarma thanks! From who I've asked they've all said red/orange unanimously

kaiser

@TomJNowell looks a bit like a warning to me :)

Tom J Nowell

@kaiser 1 against 8 congrats you're the first to disagree

kaiser

@TomJNowell It's better than b/w, but there're some million other colours ;)

Tom J Nowell

@kaiser perhaps I should a/b test the spectrum

toscho

Oh, this better.

Orange is so overused.

marfarma

15:19

@TomJNowell you should a/b test your short-list. But what's your criteria - click-throughs, page views, time on site, newsletter signup, or what?

Tom J Nowell

15:30

@marfarma beauty

marfarma

@TomJNowell how do you measure 'beauty' while testing?

kaiser

@marfarma sigh vs. meauw

Basically @TomJNowell just monitors how often his $( '#colour' ).on( 'lick', function( handler ) {... was triggered.

marfarma

@kaiser that only works if your testing framework has voice recognition ....

@kaiser I can't even begin to touch that one

kaiser

Nah. .on( 'lick' ) triggers when the user touches the smartphones lcd with his tongue.

marfarma

@kaiser oh, I got it. It just left me speachless

toscho

15:41

That’s why no one will ever touch kaiser’s phone.

kaiser

There's an AJAX callback named invoked that's named wp_ajax_priv-room-invitation.

But that just works for #E20074.

marfarma

@kaiser um ... wat?

or all together

alme1304

how does wp know where to send users after submitting the comment form?

toscho

post id?

alme1304

idk, when ever i post a comment a get a weird page

nvm, just figured out that it was my index page...but why doesnt go back to the comments page?

kaiser

16:24

@TomJNowell make it rand()

Or change it depending on the time and the users timezone

crazy

Tom J Nowell

@alme1304 that shit cray*

toscho

16:42

I just wasted ten minutes to find out why a value that should be an integer was in fact a float: ceil() and floor() return integer values as floats. :(

Wyck

@TomJNowell wow, nasa has a flickr account, sweet

grrrr... Debug Bar is being meh. I don't get why everyone is high on it.

// TODO: Fix better
if ( is_object( $value ) ) {
	echo '<li>' . $key . ' => <ol>';
	foreach ( $value as $_key => $_value )
		echo '<li>' . $_key . ' => ' . $_value . '</li>';
	echo '</ol></li>';
} else {
	echo '<li>' . $key . ' => ' . $value . '</li>';
}

obviously variables can only be object and not object

and in arrays we always store strings...

kaiser

@Rarst You didn't know that? #fail

Rarst

18:44

this is curious... if page has xdebug error dump Security Essentials make it load really slow

Wyck

have you tried the debug objects plugin, not sure if it's better

Rarst

did, the problem is Bar is kind of standard and all extensions by third parties are getting written for it

kaiser

18:59

@Rarst What's "Security Essentials"?

Rarst

@kaiser Microsoft's antivirus

Microsoft Security Essentials

| status = Active | genre = Antivirus and Network intrusion detection system | license = Freeware | website = }} Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) is an antivirus computer program that provides protection against different types of malware such as computer viruses, spyware, rootkits and Trojan horses. It uses the same antimalware foundation as other Microsoft antivirus products, although it lacks the centralized management features of some of them. This product runs on Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7, but not on Wind...

marfarma

Just spent hours finding and filtering advanced VBA tutorials. ... my brain hurts...

kaiser

How do you know that it's ↑ making it slow?

Rarst

@kaiser because if I disable MSE it's fast. solved just now by putting Apache process into exclusions

kaiser

nice find

Rarst

19:02

I find it while back so don't remember how I did in first place... by CPU usage or something

marfarma

@Rarst That's prime blog post material

Rarst

@marfarma too localized :)

marfarma

@Rarst who's your target audience?

Rarst

@marfarma people who like stuff I like other than me

marfarma

@Rarst ah, I had been imagining a tech blog

Rarst

19:05

it is, just not that much into web development side of me... started out as primarily freeware/software blog and mostly stays that way

here it's just too damn edge case... xdebug error trace in Apache, running on Windows with MSE... I am not even sure it's not some quirk of my system and not reproducible. best windows troubleshoot posts are about issues that hit widely...

I have post about retarded issue when Java fails to install becaue of ClearType settings (!!!). that had been melting people into happy puddle for years... took me couple years f(on and off) to figure out :)

rarst.net/software/cleartype-install4j-java-bug

Wyck

I despise java on windows

Rarst

only on windows? :)

heh and this same old song and dance, krebsonsecurity.com/2012/08/java-exploit-leveraged-two-flaws
