When outsourcing, this would be the wrong callcenter to use.

I am a Picasa user, I dislike Flickr and it’s entire setup, thus I love the kPicasa Gallery WordPress plugin.

As my good colleague needed to have pages per user and he also is a frequent Picasa user; and taking also into consideration that I would like to have similar setup on my own domain, i.e. one page per user and a (sub)page for their own gallery, I thought of using kPicasa Gallery for this.

In fact is it REALLY simple to display another Picasa users gallery on a page.  Normally, you have to place the tag KPICASA_GALLERY on your page to have the kPicasa Gallery shown and it will use the settings from WordPress’s kPicasa Gallery settings page.

To display another Picasa users gallery simply use KPICASA_GALLERY(username: PICASA_EMAIL_ADDRESS). You simply fill in the email address the Picasa gallery was registered with and that’s is.

A good colleague of mine is using his domain with WordPress for his entire family, but want to have a page per family member showing only their posts.

Although this might not be the exactly right solution, it could be done by:

• Installing the plugin Exec-PHP for WordPress which allows to excute PHP code in widgets, posts and pages and can work on multi userlevels with restrictions.
• Find the display name of the user who’s posts you want to display.
• Create a page in WordPress and insert the code:

<?php query_posts(‘display_name=INSERT_DISPLAY_NAME_HERE’); ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<h4><?php the_title(); ?></h4>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php endwhile;?>

• Now go to the page…. My test is here PeterDB’s Page

I will try to update the code so it shows the posts in the same style as the front page, so more to come.

Hello,

So the reason why I open this blog is mainly so I have easier access to my bookmarklets. I got annoyed that I couldn’t get the excellent open in new page bookmarklet from Doctyper, since I was not using Safari on my computer and had no intention of installing it. I want my bookmarklet via iPhone directly.

So here goes the attempt…

Click here to open the link in a new page, then add the link to the iPhone bookmarks, but remove all text before “javascript:”. LINK

It worked…
