New Version of FLIR Soon

December 10, 2008 by Dan Zappone Leave a Comment

I was hoping to have a new version of FLIR out by today but life does that strange thing, you know where it interrupts with programming.

Anyway the new version is just a minor update that fixes a few bugs and adds a few small features and makes it a little more WordPress 2.7 friendly.

I need to finish up a few things then do some browser testing.

The changes should be as follows:

  • Set the tags used by the Automatic method to follow the element types as defined in the configuration
  • Add checkbox to allow the use of external JavaScript libraries – jQuery, Scriptaculous and Prototype support only
  • Hide Elements to Replace section when using Automatic method as it is not used in that case.
  • Add checkbox to disable FLIR for IE6 users to to various problems, may expand to disable for older browsers in general.
  • Fix the global Use FancyFonts not showing it’s activated.
  • Other minor interface fixes.

There may be some lingering issues with FLIR and Safari.  This post is by way of confirmation.

FLIR for WordPress 0.8.0

October 7, 2008 by Dan Zappone 1 Comment

I am in the process of testing version 0.8 of FLIR for WP.  Assuming all goes well it should be released tomorrow sometime.  Here are some of the key changes:

  • Updated Facelift to 1.2 release
  • Rewrote code for better readability and adherence to code conventions (hopefully)
  • Redesigned admin interface to be more logically organized (again, hopefully)
    • Added more helpful information to the configuration text.
  • Added ability to specify all elements to replace rather than just the few I had.
    • For example you can specify something like h1,h2,div#sidebar a to have your h1, h2 headers and all of the sidebar links replaced.
  • Fixed config-flir.php from being replaced or not present.
In the meantime you can visit the Facelift Image Replacement (FLIR) for WordPress page for more information.

This site looks awful in IE 6, but FLIR works

August 23, 2008 by Dan Zappone Leave a Comment

I haven’t checked this site in IE 6 since I re-themed it and man it looks bad.  Maybe it’s because it’s running a virtual machine – I hope that’s the reason but I wish IE 6 would just go away and die.  But really why not take it a step further and wish that Microsoft would make browser that were standards compliant.  So sorry IE 6 users is this site looks bad you might want to use Firefox, Opera or Safari.

Lightbox Plus and FLIR, Projects and Frameworks

August 22, 2008 by Dan Zappone 1 Comment

I’ve got a whole lot on my plate and development efforts for Lightbox Plus, FLIR for WordPress and Actionable are going to have to go on hold for a bit.  I’m going to try to push out another release of Lightbox Plus either tonight or tomorrow then after that I probably won’t even be able to provide much in the way of support for about a week and a half.  I’ve got to literally cram a 3-4 week project into 3-4 days.  I’m not looking forward to it.  Then I’m going out of town for about five days for a much needed escape.

To get the project I need to finish out done by Thursday of next week I’m looking at some frameworks for PHP though I’m not sure they wouldn’t just slow me down.  Ideally they shouldn’t and right now I’m trying to decide between CakePHP and Symfony.  Both are good but it’s pretty much going to be whichever I can pick up on quickest tomorrow or Sunday night.

After I get back from being away I will still have more to do on the project but I should hopefully be able to put some time into the plugins – at the very least I should be able to do some support.  I hope everything doesn’t go to hell in a handbasket while I’m gone.

FLIR for WordPress

August 13, 2008 by Dan Zappone 2 Comments

Not long ago I ran across some a set of scripts (JavaScript/PHP) called Facelift which is an alternative to sIFR and I thought this needs WordPress plugin to make it easy for people to use with WordPress.

So I downloaded it and created a plugin from it.  Since then – Sunday – it’s proven extremely popular.

A lot of people seem to be having some issues with it and I think the bulk of them come down to two things:

First you need to have the GD Graphics Library built into your PHP installation.  This is probably the main contributor to the problem.  The second issue is probably not having your cache folder for the plugin be writable.  I’ll be glad to help anyone – within reason – get these issues resolved.

I am pretty much constantly trying to work on this plugin to get it up to version 1.0.0 – it currently sits at 0.5.5 and as such is functional but incomplete.

You can get it from Facelift Image Replacement and you can get support at Mawhorter.net Forums or via commenting on the plugin page.

Lightbox Plus Demo and Example

I just finished version 1.0 of Lightbox Plus.  Lightbox Plus is a WordPress plugin that implements Lightbox JS by Lokesh Dhakar.  Lightbox Plus is used to create overlay display images on the webpage and to automatically add the correct overlay links to images.  Lightbox Plus captures the image title for display.

You can download it and get support on the Lightbox Plus page.
