Pictures Of My New Apartment

I moved into a super awesome apartment today and I thought I’d share some pictures of it since my friends kept bugging me for some. Yes, it’s in dire need of furniture and a big TV. 🙂

Regenerate Thumbnails v2.1.0 (and v2.1.1) Released

Posted on by

I’ve released a major update to my popular Regenerate Thumbnails plugin. From the changelog:

  • Thanks to a lot of jQuery help from Boris Schapira, a failed image regeneration will no longer stop the whole process.
  • The results of each image regeneration is now outputted. You can easily see which images were successfully regenerated and which failed. Was inspired by a concept by Boris.
  • There is now a button on the regeneration page that will allow you to abort resizing images for any reason. Based on code by Boris.
  • You can now regenerate single images from the Media page. The link to do so will show up in the actions list when you hover over the row.
  • You can now bulk regenerate multiple from the Media page. Check the boxes and then select “Regenerate Thumbnails” form the “Bulk Actions” dropdown. WordPress 3.1+ only.
  • The total time that the regeneration process took is now displayed in the final status message.
  • jQuery UI Progressbar version upgraded.

As you can see, lots of great new stuff. I hope you all enjoy it. 🙂

SyntaxHighlighter v3.1.0 Released, Features Old Style Script Option

Posted on by

Not everyone was happy with the new highlighting package featured in SyntaxHighlighter v3.0.0 and using old versions of plugins is a bad idea (you miss out on features, bug fixes, etc.) so I’ve added the ability to toggle between v2 and v3 of Alex G’s SyntaxHighlighting package. I’ve also fixed a few bugs that were discovered post-release (such as HTML entities being broken in the Visual editor).

Everyone, including those who downgraded to v2.x of my plugin, should upgrade to v3.1.0 of my plugin.

One thing to note by the way: I would stay far, far away from TinyMCE (the Visual editor/tab) when blogging about code. It has the nasty little habit of attempting to “clean up” your code (namely HTML) for you and in the process with mess up your code. If you’re writing code, what are you doing using a WYSIWYG editor anyway? 😉

SyntaxHighlighter Evolved v3.0.0: What’s New

Posted on by

I finally found some time to work on my SyntaxHighlighter Evolved plugin and upgrade it use the latest version of Alex Gorbatchev’s highlighter.

What’s New

  • The new version of Alex G.’s script makes it easier to select and copy code. You can just drag your mouse to highlight and you will no longer get line numbers or you can double-click the code to highlight it all (in plain text to avoid getting the colors). Click off of the code to get it to go back to the colorized version.
  • You can specify a range of line numbers to highlight. Instead of having to do highlight="5,6,7,8,9,10,14" you can now just do highlight="5-10,14".
  • BuddyPress support.
  • A few new custom brushes (Clojure and the R language) and a Ukrainian translation.

Upgrade or download it now! 🙂
