Retrieve the Lost serial number of the programs installed

July 31st, 2010 No comments

At some point we need to retrieve the serial number of our Windows and other programs we have installed on your computer, either when making a new installation or when reformatting your system. Some time ago, there are several security tools, which reveal the serial numbers, as mentioned, in Windows, Microsoft Office, Adobe, software for video editing, in short, all the software you have installed.

LicenseCrawler not need to install anything, just run. This program made in Visual Basic 6, will reveal the serial numbers of the programs we have installed on your computer, via a quick search in the register of Windows. Just click on “Start Search” and immediately will be added the serial numbers that we used.

Other Software to view the serial number of Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Microsoft Office, among others, is ProduKey of Nirsoft, who have several such tools.

Opening ProduKey, we begin to reveal the serial numbers of our Windows and other programs installed, and can copy or save these numbers in a safe place.

Finally, we have another ace up his sleeve, is called SIW, also free, which will reveal even more information than these two, surprisingly, it not only shows the serial numbers, but also information on our hardware, our network applications that are started with our system, the services are charged, among much more. It is important to have this kind of tools, because in some cases, it is difficult to get the same version of the program we used, so that we avoid compatibility problems, we avoid having to resort to cracks, serials or patches, if we had a number serial original.

Tag Deindexing – Deindex your Tags

July 21st, 2010 No comments

If you are experiencing a slight, or perhaps notorious, decline in your views perhaps due to a indexation of your tags and that is your afect and SEO. Apparently this problem could be due to an updated XML Sitemaps plugin , for in it appears unchecked by default index option labels or tags in WordPress. To fix it then.

The solution is quite simple. At the moment the version where I have noticed this problem, thanks to a notice from CristhianWas the 3.2.3.

( Incidentally , this version shows a permission error when trying to access the plugin configuration panel , which I recommend , if you have upgraded , reinstall the previous version 3.2.2 , which can be downloaded from this link.)

Turning to the solution of the Tag deindexation, what they should do is to go to panel XML Sitemaps and then, Sitemap Content section , make sure that is checked Include tag pages.

After that one must save the changes and , finally , give it a manual rebuild the sitemap to generate it again, and with structure correct.

July 20th, 2010 No comments

You may have seen in some URL that automatically adds in the URL of a page, utm_source chain . For example, when you visit a post from a Twitter URL or if you do through feed. Perhaps a special campaign or some other similar. The problem with this is that you can create duplicate content.

If you want to save you problems , and manage a blog that allows you to make changes to the htaccess , for example in Blogger could not , you can define a conditional rule that removed, in order to feel more relaxed.

The rule that you add to your file . htaccess at the root of files Your blog or website is as follows.

Easy, right? So if dare, can implement it on your site and tell me how it went .

RewriteCond % { QUERY_STRING } .* utm_source
RewriteRule (.* ) $ 1 ? [ R = 301 , L]a

Feedburner Subscribers Widget Plugin for WordPress blogs

July 19th, 2010 No comments

After the successful launch of the Bookmarks plugin , this time was the turn of a new plugin called Feedburner Subscribers Widget. This plugin allows us to place a widget in our sidebars which only providing our Feedburner ID , insert a form to encourage subscriptions via email.

feedburner-subscription

Installation

1 .- Install the plugin directory folder wp-content/plugins / Installation blog.
2 .- Activate the plugin Feedburner Subscribers Widget.
3 .- Go to the section of widgets : Theme / Widgets.
4 .- Drag the widget called Feedburner Subscribers Widget to one of your sidebars .
5 .- Enter the ID of your Feedburner account and save your changes .

Why is Feedburner Subscribers Widget?

Most people do not subscribe to a blog because they ignore the procedure and handling of feeds. The beginner bloggers may not be handled well with Feedburner codes and prefer to have an easier control of your account. With this plugin is only necessary to give Account ID Feedburner.

Why in English? Most blogs that reference this kind of development codes are in English , hence the name of it is in that language , however all options are in Spanish. Even so, it will integrate a translation file to support other languages and be much more functional.

Scripts to Display Ads in Blogs based on the Author of the post

July 19th, 2010 No comments

Today I was asked about whether there was a plugin or script enabling show advertising to show a particular entry depending on the author to write it. The question certainly seemed interesting, so I coded a quick bite for those who wish to review or implement it on your blog.

Google Adsense logo

Certainly I would not complicate life with arrangements or something more elaborate or optimized , but I guess if there are few authors in a blog ( up to 6) with a daily average visits , the following code will work fine :

<? php $ mi_autor=get_the_author_meta(' user_login '); ?>
   <? php
       switch($ mi_autor){
       case "Admin":
         print (' Code advertising User admin ');
         break;
       case " otroautor ":
         print (' Code advertising otroautor user ');
         break;
       default:
         print (' Code advertising shared ');
         break;
  }
  ?>

You must install the file single.php of your blog , just where they want to be displayed advertising. As generalva under the title of the post or other place over in the sidebar, is up to you .

If you use Adsense or similar should not have problems around the repetition of Ads various advertisers (not to lower your CTR), since the conditions are mutually exclusive , as well as run from the server side , so users are not able to see this code but only its execution.

The code has been implemented using the principal author’s name (called admin default) and another, which called otroautorBut you can add the case they’re needed. The latest case , called default , I suggest not to touch it because it is executed when none of the above conditions are met, so that functions as a control.

I preferred to use the code name by which users do login before doing that with the normal ID, because many do not understand what 1 .- 2 .- where to find it . For those who have questions or want to keep trying harder, for example using probabilities, they left a couple of links Codex WordPress.

3 Things to do before updating to WordPress 3.0

July 19th, 2010 No comments

WordPress 3.0 was released and already many bloggers and webmasters plane took to update their sites to the latest version . I had been working all with the RC version in my local installation -localhost- To get to know a little of the new system before it was released.

If you have not installed this new version or is your first update , surely must have heard the legends of those old lions bloggers, who reported playing update WordPress changing the files by hand … taking care update the database. Now everything is easier. The list of tasks prior to the update is minor, smaller but no less important. I suggest the following:

Create a backup of your files

For this I recommend using an FTP client , for example Filezilla . Even if they feel most comfortable I’ve always recommended the WordPress Automatic Upgrade. A plugin that it was essential to simplify the upgrade of WordPress prior to version 2.7 go to where this process became automated. This plugin allows , by way of installation steps update your blog quickly and easily.

Create a backup of your database

Should access the panel of hosting, Then select the section PHPMyAdmin database WordPress installation and access section Export. Once the download section of the backup database to your PC , for which I recommend in gzip compressed format and SQL format . To examine the contents gzip can use the free program 7-zip or similar.

Disable your plugins cache

I emphasize that try to plugins cache because they seem to have problems with this update of WordPress. For example, existing bugs with the DB Cache Reloaded, Although have created a patch DJZone.im We must review and, as the author says , makes this plugin compatible with version 3.0 of WordPress.
