Foliopress WYSIWYG problem with the size of the editor window in Webkit browsers fixed. Enjoy the full-sized editing window in Safari.

We recently checked our site in W3C Markup Validation Service and find out that some of our inline javascript in the posts is not properly enclosed in CDATA tags. Read about the details of the issue, reason for it and a bit of hope in future WordPress releases.

Everything inside a CDATA section is ignored by the XML parser and all the inline javascript should be in it. This is how you do it:
 

<script>
<![CDATA<strong>[ </strong>function anything(a,b)
{ }
]]>
</script>

So we fixed all of our plugins which are putting any javascript into the posts and there was another error coming out of the Validation Service saying that the CDATA section is not properly closed.

Relenta is a great CRM-lite which beats any mailing software I know for ease of use and speed. Highly recommended.

As you may be aware, we run almost entirely WordPress sites, although many are almost custom apps with additional functionality for real estate, insurance or political discussion. We needed a way to wed our WordPress sites to Relenta. Relenta does not have contact forms of its own but instead an email API for adding new contacts.

Fortunately John Godley's Filled In for WordPress handles forms admirably and has a mailing function built-in. Filled In to handle the forms and Relenta to handle the lists is the best of both worlds.

But like anything technical, there are a few issues to look out for. Without further ado, here is our detailed guide to using Relenta with WordPress.

In order, these are the steps to create a form in WordPress with help of Filled In and send the information to Relenta CRM for parsing.

If you ever delete any users in your WordPress installation, read carefully. Look what it looks like when you are trying to delete some user who is an author of some pages (read more about WordPress pages):
 

As you can see WordPress shows the number zero under Posts. But this user clearly has some pages as you can see on next picture:

Not having much luck with the PR profession lately.

Let's take the case of Stuart Bruce of Wolfstar Consultancy.

In July of this year, Stuart came to us with his weblog StuartBruce.biz which he wanted to move from Typepad to WordPress rather urgently. He dropped the future work promise very early:

Just need to move the A PR Guy's Musings blog. It is quite highly ranked so it is important that the permalinks move properly. As I run a global PR company specialising in social media I might potentially have other WordPress development work in the near future.

Fortunately I don't fall for that kind of talk anymore. "Future work" is kind of like the guy on the first date promising that it's not just a one-night stand.

I had no idea how sexy ecommerce could be. Looking at Magento vs WordPress.

Facebook desperately need $100 million. Just the kind of company I’d like to give access all the contact information for my family and friends.
