The Mojo Admin Toolbox
The Mojo Admin Toolbox is a collection of little functions I found myself using a lot to customise the admin dashboard of WordPress, specifically when I was hiding stuff from a client or customising it for them!
Mojo Gallery 0.4 Released
Yay! Development is really pushing forward, today I have pushed 0.4 to the WordPress Repo. I’ve been working hard actually getting the front end presentation to work how I want.
Currently I have basic templates for single.php and archive.php, users can create their own templates by creating a /mojo-gallery/ folder in their theme and copying the templates folder contents into it, that way they can modify their own templates without them being wiped out during upgrades.
There are still plenty of bugs especially around templates and I am looking at better ways of doing this. If you feel like helping then please do!
You can check it out over on the WordPress Plugin Site or GitHub.
Mojo Gallery on the WordPress Plugin Repo
Just a quick update to say you can now also keep track of updates from the WordPress plugin repo!
Finally managed to get it working, stupid SVN!
The most recent updates will always be on the Github page but if you so desire you can check out the WordPress Plugin page here.
Mojo Gallery Plugin Update
Following on from my post a few days ago I have put some serious time into the plugin. The backend is shaping up nicely and is working well. I am currently working on the front end presentation before adding any more features. The compromise seems to be trying to use Filters to modify the $content opposed to specifying templates to use. I don’t really want to specify templates as it isn’t really user friendly. I’ll keep working and keep posting!
Also need to figure out how to use SVN I normally use git/github for everything!
CentOS Root Certificate Authority Failures
Oh CentOS why you so annoying! I love you and hate you all at the same time!
When trying to add the shiny Github RSS feed on the right of the page I came up with CS errors that WordPress could not validate the SSL CA. This happens because CentOS had an old certificate authority bundle: /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt
I found a blog post from last year here and made sense for my position!
Backup your existing file just so you don’t kill any kittens:
cp /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt /root/kitten-basket
Then use magic to get the new one, I used the one found in the other blog post referenced above.
curl http://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem -o /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt
I restarted apache (not sure if I needed to but made sense!) and yippee it works!
