Metatags_quick editing behaviour

Posted by admin on Tue 16 Oct 2012

The most useful contributed modules for SEO in Drupal 7 I believe are page_title and metatags_quick. The editing method of these two modules is different. Page_title puts the edit field in the "additional_settings" area at the bottom of the edit page along with menu settings, revision information, comment settings etc. Metatags_quick puts its edit fields in the main part of the screen with title and body.

Here is a screen shot of the basic page edit using these two modules.

Drupal 7 taxonomy image links

Posted by admin on Sun 11 Dec 2011

Recently upgraded my site to d7 and wanted to have taxonomy images. This is extremely easy in Drupal 7 as you can add CCK fields to taxonomy. Some images used require a link back to the owner's website as a condition of use so I added a link field as well. Here is the taxonomy manage fields screen (goto edit vocabulary from structure, taxonomy):-

Javascript errors, line numbers from IE

Posted by admin on Tue 02 Jun 2009

Recently I received an email from Gary who tried out my shareware Javscript editor, ScrypTik. I tried to reply directly, but his email bounced. Gary's question was a good one, so I'll answer it here as it may help others. Question:

I have downloaded a copy of ScrypTik and I like what it can offer. However, I have the following issue which is typical of my application:

I have a PHP file which refers to numerous js files e.g. When running the PHP, The IE browser (v7) will refer to a line number "line 706: character 3" which bears no relation to my PHP source file. It seems to be erroring on some Javascript at run-time. I know this is a run-time error since it occurs in specific situations.

What is the best way of locating the error with your product?

My Answer:

Javascript code filter for Drupal

Posted by admin on Fri 27 Jun 2008

This was an explanation of how I wrote a Drupal5.n module to filter javascript code so that it displayed syntax highlighted. Drupal 7 has been released, this site has been upgraded and I decided to display programming code syntax highlighted using the GeShi PHP library. It caters for most languages and there is a geshifilter module to integrate the library into Drupal. Here are some examples:

SEO, the loooooooooong tail

Posted by admin on Tue 27 May 2008

This site is about web development. I provide web design and development services. It is optimized for words like "web development" plus my geographic location.

But this site is found most frequently by a phrase (or variation) to do with the difference between static and dynamic web sites. This is NOT what I anticipated.

However, if people are coming to my site from a google search for "difference between static and dynamic web sites", there must be a reason.

Web story, the beginning

Posted by admin on Wed 14 May 2008

Every web site owner has a story or three to tell. Most web site owners want to make money from their site. Lots of web sites offer advice on how to do this (jargon "monetize"). Probably the most popular business on the Internet is how to make money on the Internet! They urge you to buy their latest snake oil system which will have you earning indecent amounts of money in hardly any time at all. Their spiel is awash with numerous testimonials from customers draped over their latest Ferrari/beautiful significant other which proves how much money they are making. Beware, low flying pigs!
