All Good Things Must Come To An End

As you all know, I have been doing WordPress plugins and supporting it for the past 6 years. These 6 years of my life, I have been through my polytechnic education, my national service as well as my university education.

I just graduated from university in December 2009 and have been looking for full-time jobs. I am offered a full-time job and will be starting work on 1st February 2010.

I regret to say that I am NOT ABLE to provide support for my plugins anymore due to my full-time job commitment. I will leave this forum open and let the community help one another.

However, I WILL still update my plugins whenever I can and you still can report bugs to me via email and I will try to fix it.

PHP + MYSQL / Re: trying to write a plugin, need help.
« on: 11 April 2008, 09:46 »
Well, I made it  ;D
I'm so proud of myself even though it's only few lines of code and most likely the functions could be written in a better and more efficient way, in this case shame on me but what the heck, I've never done it!!!
I admit it it's very limited, there's no administration page, there's no link check(yet), the template needs to be modified...
...anyway, so far it seems to work.

I'm gonna keep reading and learning, I'm having so much fun and maybe it could turn out into a "real" plugin to be share.

The result can be seen on my website www.hilariousgifs.com just click on any image, the red bar saying share it, if clicked, slides down, I should make it more obvious but the whole thing is still a work in progress.

PHP + MYSQL / trying to write a plugin, need help.
« on: 19 February 2008, 15:58 »
Hi to everyone, I need some help from you guys, I know GaMerZ is very busy and therefore suggesting to write another plugin is far from happening at the moment (you're the best with your plugins btw). Because of that I decided to write a plugin myself, I can't find anything that would do what I need, let me explain first.

Lets say we have post that contains a picture and we would like to let viewers share it on their myspace or forum, you've seen it many times from image hosting websites, you upload a picture and you get different options like
Code: [Select]
[IMG]http://www.site.com/8fwy3af.jpg[/IMG]
or
http://www.site.com/view.php?pic=8fwy3af&s=1
So I was thinking that if a post has a picture inside a tag [shareit]image in here[/shareit] the plugin would grab the link, store it in a variable, we manually add a tag <--sharit--> anywhere inside that post and have the plugin output a div containing few fields with the image link properly formatted.

The problem is that I'm not quite a programmer  ;D ha ha, I have some basic knowledge of php and I can spend hours reading about it and wordpress plugins stuff but I need quite some help  :-[ .


Speaking of php what I was able to accomplish so far, and is very little, is to get the image url in [shareit]image in here[/shareit] and store it in a variable formatted to [ IMG]image url[/IMG ] using preg_replace.
After that I can't think of the proper way to continue, I'd like to be pointed into the right direction.
BTW, if something like this is already been made for wordpress please share it.

Thanks in advance.
