As the popularity of Design Shack grows month on month, we have decided to expand it further and increase it’s functionality. As well as offering the same great CSS designs as before, Design Shack now contains tutorials, news articles and a whole new way of looking at our gallery.

You now search by how you would like to be inspired - by Colour, Layout or Category. This opens up a new realm of functionality for CSS gallery websites and enhances navigation greatly. It’s much easier to submit your website to us, and navigating around is a breeze. Designs load faster and are much more optimised than before.

We hope you enjoy it, and feel free to send us your feedback!

This is currently a Beta, and is under development. However, I’ve decided to release it now (as further development could take a couple of weeks). These are the functions of the plugin:

• Integrates with Technorati Tags Plugin for WordPress
• Takes the first Technorati tag, and uses it to look for related images on Flickr
• Displays the three most recent related images on your WordPress blog post
• Updates images automatically

The plugin is easy to install, but it requires the Technorati Tags Plugin to work. I strongly suggest you install this, and get it working correctly before you attempt to install the Flickr Related Images plugin.

These are some simple installation instructions for the plugin:

• Download and install Technorati Tags Plugin
• Download the plugin file, either as a .zip package or a .txt file. Place it in your plugins directory, and activate it.
• Insert the following code into wp-comments.php, where you want the Flickr images to appear (generally just below the line containing “You can start editing here”:

  flickrrelated($id);

• Begin adding Technorati tags to your posts, and watch the related images appear

This plugin will be updated rapidly over the next couple of days. Keep checking back for changes. If there are any feature requests or comments, please feel free to comment this post.

To appear in online certification exams, you need to have hassle free internet with support of online phone to better interact with your instructor. It’s also advisable to keep your computer security at maximum protected level to protect yourself from malicious online software and to avoid any hacking threats. If you are appearing in advanced courses like CCNP, you need to take a qualifying test i.e. 642-845 ONP. However, you can appear in basic tests like Linux’s LPI 117-101 general without any qualifying tests. But make sure that you have prepared well for it.

I hit a problem recently with WordPress, where basically when adding a new category lead to the category list on the right simply adding the new category on to the bottom.

This really didn’t appeal to me and I hadn’t noticed the fact that it displayed chronologically before (I imported the categories from my old B2Evolution install, and they were imported alphabetically by default).

The solution to this is very simple. Instead of calling the category list as you would normally:

[PHP] < ?php wp_list_cats(); ?>[/PHP]

You would call it with the following code:

[PHP] < ?php wp_list_cats("sort_column=name"); ?>[/PHP]

I hadn’t realised this before, but presumably this allows you to sort the category with any of the column names. I also expect this works with other functions (for example, selecting an archive list). It’s quite a useful find!

When moving from an older blog system to a new one, it is usually the case that you want to import all the posts and categories from the old blog into the new one. The purpose of this tutorial is to show how to import posts etc from a b2evolution system, to your new Wordpress installation.

I have modified a script originally written by Farook, and I take no credit for the work on this. I have simply altered it to work with the release of B2Evo I was working with. If it doesn’t work for you, please contact me with any error message you recieve and I’ll do my best to help.

Ensure your current B2Evolution installation is working correctly, and then upload the script to your wordpress directory. Run the script, and follow the instructions which Farook placed in there, and go ahead to import the data.

Please Note: Do not create the same categories you did in your B2Evo install before running the script, because the script will try to create them again, and fail with an error message
