Yes, you get presents for visiting me.
Here are just a few things I've put together over the last years of playing around.
Webmin Theme
I have been using a customized webmin theme for a few years now, and I figured it’s about time I let the rest of the community use it, so.. here is it.
Right now, it says illanti in all of the most obvious places. this is easy enough to change if you know what you’re doing in vi, pico or emacs… and if you don’t, you’ll have to ask a friend or wait. In the future, I would like to make this configurable, but at this point I think it’s important to just get it out instead of sitting around making excuses. So, enjoy.
Please. I would love to hear comments, suggestion and feedback.. and if you have improvements, let me know and I’ll add them right in.
Also, this theme is based on clean-theme by Peter n. Hrebicek. so, uhh.. thanks goes out to him. :)
Custom 404 Messages for Wordpress
Well, I read the different options that were posted on how to migrate the links, and I didn’t like any of them. I wasn’t really a fan of leaving my MoveableType installation on the server for X duration.
So, I wrote my own solution that is easily applied to the WordPress installation in the form of a custom 404 page.
The page is fairly simple. All it does is the following:
- Tries to figure out what the title of the post is, or should be
- Formats the title according to what WordPress wants it to be
- Checks the database to see if a post by that name exists
- If it does, it sends you there with a proper 301 redirect
- If it doesn’t, it displays the standard error page
The nice thing about this technique is that you have full control over it, and since it’s part of the template, you can edit it quickly and easily without using FTP or SSH.
I have attached the PHP file that I used here, and it is full of comments.
Custom 404 Page for MoveableType Links
I would love to hear any feedback or comments on how it can be improved… or even why it sucks.
Backgrounds
A few desktop backgrounds that I made with my camera and photoshop. Perhaps you'll enjoy them. :)
