Few WordPress Tweaks

Posted by danielctw On November - 20 - 2007

Yes, some of you might have wondered, what happened to my previous theme. Well, for Firefox users, I guessed there won’t be a problem viewing it, but thanks to Ichitaka for pointing out that when the blog is viewed using Internet Explorer, it went haywire. Yes, all my alignments run here and there. It’s all happening to my WordPress blog. It’s like weirder than weird!!

So as of meantime, I am currently *spoilers* modifying a new wordpress theme while I currently use this theme for my blog. Yes, some of you who are programming freaks might noticed I have added some stuffs or rather some of you who are SEO friendly would know that I have tweak a few stuffs.

What did I Tweak?

Single Post
So what did I tweak, yes, it’s the single post. Now it just shows the title of the post only without additional add-ons. So let’s say Nuffnang the Booze just shows Nuffnang the Booze instead of Nuffnang the Booze ยป Weird Weird Denial. Well, this one pretty easy if you try to read the codes.

Comments Add-ons
Well, another thing which I tweaked about now are the mybloglog functionalities on the comments. Though at first I had trouble with the comments alignment that I have to make do with the table to help organized it. So now if you want your picture or avatar to appear beside your comments, sign up for MyBlogLog.

Meta Tags
Yes, though Google doesn’t search for meta tags, other search engines still uses the Meta tags to enhance search engines relevance for searching. Who wouldn’t want that extra traffic. Yes, now I have added extra tags for easier searching based on the single post, Archived post and main page. Well, if you need clarification on this, just email me. This might help with your wordpress themes.

What’s Next After This?

OK! So now you’ve seen what I did which really aren’t not that visible to the eyes, but if you’re trying to make it SEO (Search Engine Optimization) friendly, learn a thing or two. By the way, I will be starting a new blog just for these issues. So these are actually just a preview. So if you’re interested to learn more, be sure to stay tune here. Who knows other than wordpress blogs, I’ll try make another one for blogspot.

Adios and I have to get back to work. :)

ps : Digg this if you like this post. :)

Skiing in France

Posted by danielctw On November - 20 - 2007

Hmm… I’ve always thought skiing is usually done in Switzerland. I think I watched too much television and didn’t know about other places.

Well, today on the live chatbox, some of the shouters were talking about skiing, that made me search for some ski info. But little did I know that there exist a french ski region of Chamonix. Yeah, of course in a skiing area, there’s bound to be a ski chalet, and seriously I think if I could afford one of those ski chalets, I might thought of making skiing my job and a very long time hobby.

Ski Chalet

Getting a property at property chamonix seems a little long shot for me, but the ski chalets and the apartments there really entices me. I mean after looking at the few pictures of the chalets there, argh…. how I wished it snowed in Malaysia. I am in the verge of dying to ski and getting a ski chalet. *Cries* But before I could do this, I guessed I really need to learn how to ski first.

So now, I can put the ski region of Chamonix under one of my next travel destination. Who knows, if I hit it big, I can even get a property there, praying fully a ski chalet. (Well of course). I must be crazy, from diving to skiing. Wonder what will this weird guy do next eh?

ps : I really am envious to those who can ski!

Simply Monday

Posted by danielctw On November - 19 - 2007

Monday is what it seems. Blue and Dampy!! Well, when it’s a Monday, yes, it’s the day where people start to go to work and to school, universities. Hahaha… most of them wished that the weekends would prolong and not ended too fast. Well what is 2 days compared to 5 working days. You tell me.

Blue Blue Man

But knowing this fact, even if we were given 3 days for a weekend, there will never be enough days for everyone to enjoy. Hmm let me come out with an equation.

String[] workingDays = {“Monday”, “Tuesday”, “Wednesday”, “Thursday”, “Friday” };
double pay = 100.0d;
double totalPay = 0.0d;

for (int i=0;i<workingDays.length;i++) {
totalPay = totalPay + pay;
}

System.out.print(“You get $” + totalPay + ” per week!”);
System.out.print(“In a month you get $” + totalPay*4);

Now tell me, if you have 4 days a week and 3 days of weekend. How much would you get??? Argh….

ps : Anything this doesn’t apply to places where they pay you per monthly salary. Well, I doubt that the company’s accountant didn’t do this calculation at all. :(

ProofRead Your Essays

Posted by danielctw On November - 19 - 2007

I missed my studying days. Those days the only thing I was bothered about was just studying. Now, it seems when one starts work, you’ve got to worry about loans, work, stress, colleagues, etc.

Anyway I found a really helpful guide for those still in universities and colleges. Why didn’t I search on the Internet before. Silly me. I still remember those final year projects, I practically need to recheck my dissertations and make sure there’s no grammar and spelling error.

Though I had a feeling that I wouldn’t need to do anything, since custom-writing.org also does custom writing essays. There’ll be professional writers from US as well from UK, so if you’re studying for a UK varsity, get one from UK. Right, the spellings different ok.

Well, the only thing I would think about it is more into proofreading my final year project documentation. So for those of you out there, you’ve got covered with this online help. Don’t worry, there’s 24/7 live support. Just call them and bug them when you need it.

Month of Weddings

Posted by danielctw On November - 18 - 2007

I think end of the year, weddings are pretty common. Well, why do I say that? Of course, when I have already attended a few weddings though, not all comes with photos as it’ll be mighty inconvenient for me to carry my camera around all the time.

Though tomorrow’s Bak Kut Teh. :P Anyway some of you who have been following my progress here have noticed one of the wedding’s I have attended at Cyberview Lodge in Cyberjaya. Yes. Nothing out of the ordinary, – I mean the dressing.

Wedding Photo

Now that was the previous post, but recently I have also attended one in Malacca which the dressing was very Baba Nyonya like. They dress in a cultural way. This is something different. Well, for those people who don’t know about it, this is what it means.

Peranakan Baba Nyonya Style Wedding

Look at the traditional costume. Though coming from the Straits of Malacca, it’s where those people we talk with, even for those in Chinese Ethnic, we talk in Malay. But I love this shot most of all. Ta dah….

Cute Young Ones

It seems that year end is really a wedding manifestation. Well, not that I don’t condone or anything, but then this got me thinking about my own life too. Anywayz, I think before I even think that far ahead, first I got to get off my single-life hood. Well, not that I don’t enjoy being single, but this is another stage of life which usually everyone goes through.

Heck, I guessed the Saturday night influence is still on, and here I am again, thinking lots and lots of things. Guessed I better get some sleep. Oh that reminds me, another wedding in December. OMG!!!!
