Navigating with Krumo

The Devel module includes the super helpful Krumo library. I use dsm() and krumo() all the time. If you are not familiar with Devel, you should try it. Morten Wulff wrote a demo page for the module.

Upgraded to Drupal 7

I updated this website to D7 this weekend. Mikkel upgraded his site and urges others to do so now, so I thought I'd give it a shot too. And it was good fun! OK, granted, this site is 4 posts and pretty much nothing else, but that makes it a perfect time to upgrade.

Pet peeve #1 - the comparison operator

I have a lot of pet peeves when it comes to programming, databases, web content, food, beer, and, well just about everyting. I am thinking of making a series of pet peeves here on this site. Some will seem like plain rants, and others will be more like tips.

Backup and migrate module + Dropbox = peace of mind

The backup and migrate module is truly sweet. We all know that it is a *really* good idea to back up data. But if you are like me - you forgot to do it or just don't do it for some lame reason. So backups should be automated. The backup and migrate module does exactly that - it can be configured to run every X hours if you have cron (and you should have) running on your site.

Hide Drupal files with .htaccess

If one goes to somedrupalsite.com/CHANGELOG.txt - it is normally possible to read the file and see what version of Drupal the site is running. If you don't want everybody to see what version you are running, it is a good idea to cloak the *.txt files in the Drupal install.
