Creating a Child Theme in WordPress
A couple of days ago I updated Lightword, the theme that I've been using on this blog for quite a while now. Unfortunately when I did the update I lost all of my customizations, including my logo and Adsense code. So I went looking for a solution.
Little did I know, WordPress has supported a feature called "child themes" for some time now. The idea is that you create a new theme, which is as simple as creating a new directory with a single CSS file called style.css, and add a comment to the new CSS file specifying the name of the parent theme. You can read all about how to create a child theme here.
Converting My Business to Linux, Part 4: Updating my IPhone
(Back to Converting My Business to Linux, Part 3: Adobe Acrobat)
The last few days I've been using Linux on a daily basis without too many problems, but tonight I attempted to resolve an unresolvable issue: updating my IPhone to iOS 4.
Though there is plenty of support for syncing and using your IPhone under Linux, as far as I can tell updating simply can't be done since ITunes is required to download updates. I installed ITunes under WINE, but since USB support doesn't exist under WINE (or does it?) that wasn't going to work. I'm looking into libimobiledevice right now since the website says it supports firmware updates. I'll post an update when I know more.
Either way, I feel like this is an area where Linux has some room to improve!
Reich Consulting Video Tutorials
If a picture is worth a thousand words, I'll soon stop writing altogether! I'm trying something new for the Reich Consulting blog: along with the articles, tutorials and tips that I normally write I'm going to try my hand at creative video tutorials. Armed with Powerpoint, a trial Camtasia Studio, and Virtual PC, I'm going to create video walk-throughs to visually guide my readers through my tutorials. I've already released one about Finding Your Network Settings in Windows XP. My tutorials will be available on YouTube. If you have any criticisms please post them so I know where to make improvements the next time around.
