Happy holidays from DigiFad!

Yeah. You may have witnessed a slight change in the site. I wanted to give Blogger a spin, so here we go!

I figured I would give MS Live Writer a shot since it integrates with WordPress. So far everything works well. Simple app for a simple blog.

I finally got the interviews back online. It was all static content previously, so I had to write quite a few regexp to get the content out. I’ll be adding new interviews soon. Enjoy!

Merry Christmas!

I’ll post an update one of these days. Kinda busy and don’t have much time to post news/updates here. Rock out!

New audio feature added to DigiFad. If you see the following icon next to an entry, you can click it to play the ‘speech’ version of the entry. Please note that only certain entries will be converted to ‘speech’.

To anyone using Simple PHP Blog, here is a way to lock down the password a bit more than it is now.

line numbers may vary due to version

line 42
change
$passFile = 'config/password.txt';
to
$passFile = 'config/pwd.php';

line 89
change
$filename = 'config/password.txt';
to
$hashed = crypt($mypasswd);
$tmphashed = "<?php $thepass = "".str_replace("$","$",$hashed).""; ?>";
$hashed = $tmphashed;
$filename = 'config/pwd.php';

line 114
change
$passFile = 'config/password.txt';
$hashed = sb_read_file( $passFile );
to
$passFile = 'config/pwd.php';
require( $passFile );
$hashed = $thepass;

logout of your site, go back to your homepage, and you will have to walk through the setup up to the password creation… another option is to rename password.txt to pwd.php and edit it from
PASSWORDSTRING
to
<?php $thepass = "PASSWORDSTRING"; ?>


be sure to replace any $ with $

I’ve been an ASP developer for years, and I’m just migrating over to PHP, so I can only state that this works for me and I take no responsibility if this does not work for you or causes any problems on your site.
