When you would like to show a page only for a specified user or you wish to create a maintenance page, you may use this simple script:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 |
// List of allowed IP addresses $allowIP = array("87.6.45.33", "234.34.34.2"); // etc... // Access denied if( !in_array($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], $allowIP ) { // include maintenance mode die(); } // Access grant and display the rest of view |
With Xcode 4 you can develop applications for iPad and iPhone. Also, you can choose a different iOS target. Currently, the last release of iOS is 4.3 and when you will create a new project you will see:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 |
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions { // Override point for customization after application launch. self.window.rootViewController = self.viewController; [self.window makeKeyAndVisible]; return YES; } |
Now, the rootViewController property has been added with iOS 4. This mean that when we going to test the application in iOS 3.2 environment we will get a CRASH! Instead to check the iOS version, we can use a feature of Obejctve-C in order to check if a property exists:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 |
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions { // Override point for customization after application launch. if ([self.window respondsToSelector:@selector(setRootViewController:)]) { self.window.rootViewController = self.viewController; } else { [self.window addSubview:self.viewController.view]; } [self.window makeKeyAndVisible]; return YES; } |
As usual, please don’t hesitate to leave any questions or comments in the feed below, and I’ll aim to respond to each of them.
The last version of WordPress provides a new toolbar in frontend view when you are logged in. To disable this feature you can add the following code in the functions.php file in your active theme:
|
1 2 3 4 |
// Before check if the filter show_admin_bar exists if( has_filter('show_admin_bar') ) { add_filter( 'show_admin_bar', '__return_false' ); } |
Apple suggests to use an instance of NSFileManager class and avoid the static class method defaultManagerbecause it will return a singleton instance: no thread safe:
In Mac OS X v.10.5 and later you should consider using
[[NSFileManager alloc] init]rather than the singleton method defaultManager. Using[[NSFileManager alloc] init]instead, the resultingNSFileManagerinstance is thread safe.
For example:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 |
// bad BOOL result = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath:pathLocalRepository isDirectory:nil]; // good NSFileManager *fm = [[NSFileManager alloc] init]; BOOL result = [fm fileExistsAtPath:pathLocalRepository isDirectory:nil]; [fm release]; fm = nil; |
If you would like to avoid to set the background image of main view controller through Interface Builder, you can use a different way and delete the UIImageview object from Interface Builder:
|
1 2 3 4 5 |
- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated { [super viewWillAppear:animated]; self.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"backgroundImage.jpg"]]; } |
You may use viewDidLoad as well but viewWillAppear avoid some flickering. With Xcode 3.2.5 is not possible to use the pattern yet.
Be careful when you wish if an element DOM exists. If you use:
|
1 2 3 |
if ( $("#my-id") ){ // exists? } |
This method doesn’t work because jQuery will return an [Object object] even if the element doesn’t exist. We may use a couple of methods to be sure that an element exists: Read More
You remember the post How to get a page/post content, don’t you? Then, we may get the page/post content by:
|
1 2 3 4 5 |
function getPageBySlug( $slug ) { $objectPost = get_page_by_path($slug); return apply_filters("the_content",$objectPost->post_content); } |
We have to use a little trick! In other words, we will remove the meta box and then we will add a new one again:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 |
function customposttype_image_box() { // remove remove_meta_box( 'postimagediv', 'post', 'side' ); // add add_meta_box('postimagediv', 'Here we here', 'post_thumbnail_meta_box', 'post', 'side', 'low'); } add_action('do_meta_boxes', 'customposttype_image_box'); |

- (UIImage *)combineImage:(UIImage *)imageA imageB:(UIImage *)imageB { UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(imageA.size); [imageA drawInRect:CGRectMake(0, 0, imageA.size.width, imageA.size.height)]; [imageB drawInRect:CGRectMake(0, 0, imageB.size.width, imageB.size.height)]; UIImage *combinatedImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext(); UIGraphicsEndImageContext(); return combinatedImage; } |
Let’s see some useful method about NSURL
Return the name of a file (with or without extension) from NSURLRequest:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 |
- (NSString *)getFilenameFromRequest:(NSURLRequest *)request avoidExtension:(BOOL)avoidExtension { NSString *filePath = [[[request URL] path] lastPathComponent]; if (avoidExtension) { NSArray *a = [filePath componentsSeparatedByString:@"."]; return [a objectAtIndex:0]; } return filePath; } |
Return the file extension from NSURLRequest:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 |
- (NSString *)getExtensionFromRequest:(NSURLRequest *)request { NSString *filePath = [[[request URL] path] lastPathComponent]; NSArray *a = [filePath componentsSeparatedByString:@"."]; return [a objectAtIndex:1]; } |
Finally, How to convert an address from NSString to NSURL and vice versa:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 |
// filename NSString *filePath = @"/path/filetext.txt"; // NSString to NSURL NSURL *fileURL = [[NSURL alloc] initFileURLWithPath: filePath]; // do release // or NSURL fileURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath: filePath]; // autorelease // NSURL to NSString NSString *filePath = [fileUrl absoluteString]; |
