Page not found in pagination on Category Page in WordPress

Anil Konsal — Wed, 02 Nov 2011 07:49:29 +0000

If I set the value of posts_per_page variable on query_posts to a lower value than that set on the settings page than I will get the 404 error.
Example: settings set to 10 posts per page [$ppp = get_option('posts_per_page') will echo 10]
posts_per_page set to 3 on query_posts
If I have a total of 9 posts on my wordpress database then, with the settings above, page two will not show and I get the 404 error!

SVN Post Commit hook

Anil Konsal — Sun, 02 Oct 2011 06:47:19 +0000

Some days ago, I got a requirement of giving access to 3 users to my SVN repo over ssh.
#groupadd dev #useradd -g dev auser #useradd -g dev buser #useradd -g dev cuser
Then set the passwords for each user.

For SVN, update changes, you need to have the working copy owned by dev group
#chmod 0775 -R myworkingcopy #chown -R apache:dev myworkingcopy
For svn post commit hook
#chown apache:dev post-commit #chmod 0755 post-commit
The point here is that the user committing the changes should have the write permissions to the working copy and execute permissions on the post-commit hook

and all is good.

Exporting unversioned files with SVN

Anil Konsal — Sat, 28 May 2011 05:11:46 +0000

You can just use cp -r to copy the directory tree directly, and then remove the .svn directories afterwards:
# cp -r x
# cd x
# find . -name .svn -type d -exec rm -r ‘{}’ \;

Drop Down menu hiding behind Flash in internet explorer

For this you have to make the flash movie transparent. set the wmode property to transparent in the flash object

Google Map Polygons draw internet explorer unspecified error

Anil Konsal — Thu, 19 May 2011 10:37:34 +0000

if you are using jQuery to initialize google Map, do not user $(function(){ initialize()}) or $(document).ready(function(){initialize()}).

Always use $(window).load(function(){ initialize() }). This worked for me.
