Change in layout

EDIT [8/27]: Sorry IE6 users, lazy to figure out why splitting the sidebar breaks your experience. I’ve reverted to the single-column sidebar for you guys until I’m motivated enough to determine what that shitty browser is doing. I’ve made my own copy of Potassium’s sidebar split into primary and secondary sidebars, but still kept them [...] No comments. Read the complete post »


WP-United: a dev’s wet dream come true

I’ve just stumbled upon WP-United, a package that integrates my two favorite open source projects, phpBB and WordPress, together. And I don’t mean just the design. WP-United merges phpBB’s userbase to WordPress, mapping users to it! That, my friend, is totally cool. It’s my wet web developer dream come true and through. Seriously. Even though [...] No comments.

Comment spam woes

Either the spammer managed to work out an OCR bot that was even better than reCAPTCHA‘s very own, or the reCAPTCHA WordPress Plugin simply isn’t working for me. EDIT [4:15 pm]: Wow, I went to my Global Dashboard to check out my stats just now, and alas I see this: I Googled just those two [...] No comments. Read the complete post »


One spammer. One post. One Akismet.

Apparently the spam is continuing. It’s either because JavaScript was used to insert reCAPTCHA, or the spambots actually managed to defeat reCAPTCHA which is nearly impossible. There hasn’t been any bandwidth surges either. No comments. Read the complete post »


Installed reCAPTCHA

I’ve just installed the reCAPTCHA WordPress plugin since Akismet is getting pretty tired of all these robots spamming BoltPress. I mean, all I receive every day are between 5 and 10 comments, 100% of which are spam comments. At least I’m helping to digitize books as well No comments. Read the complete post »


XHTML 1.0 or 1.1?

Ever wondered what the hell the major difference between XHTML 1.0 and XHTML 1.1 is? Never you mind those Transitional, Strict and Frameset DTDs for XHTML 1.0, but let’s consider these two version numbers. What made the dudes at W3C devise XHTML 1.1? No comments. Read the complete post »


HTML5? Elementary, my dear W3C

Ever since the WHATWG decided to pick up on development of the good ‘ol HTML that hasn’t been worked on for over eight years (since HTML 4.01), the web designer and browser community has been getting pretty noisy. Right now, things are gonna take a TIGHT turn. A good turn, perhaps, for the semantic Web. No comments. Read the complete post »


Additional blog design to integrate with NOVALISTIC 3.0?

Hey, I’ve just recently been considering making another WordPress theme strictly for BoltPress to become blog.NOVALISTIC. That means I’ve been thinking of designing a theme that integrates BoltPress’s look with NOVALISTIC 3.0. That in turn means three columns and a combination of both NOVALISTIC 3.0′s sidebar widgets and blog.NOVALISTIC’s WordPress widgets. But I’ll need opinions [...] No comments.

Congratulations to the SDC winners…

From the title of this post you could probably tell how disappointed I am. EDIT [8/9]: Thanks for all your encouraging words, guys, I feel way much better and more motivated now. I think too much. EDIT [8/8]: I can’t believe I forgot to plug a link to the results post. OK there you go. [...] No comments. Read the complete post »


Potassium 1.0.1 released

Potassium 1.0.1 has just been released for download. All it does is fix a bunch of CSS quirks and make a couple improvements. Changelog Added a font size and line height to #footer because that gloss line in the background can serve as an interesting line margin. Added more margin between posts. Fixed .nav-previous going [...] No comments. Read the complete post »
