Sass/Less Comparison

In this document I am using Sass's SCSS syntax. You can choose to use the indented syntax in sass, if you prefer it, it has no functional differences from the SCSS syntax.

For Less, I'm using the JavaScript version because this is what they suggest on the website. The ruby version may be different.

Share Counts

I have always struggled with getting all the various share buttons from Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, Pinterest, etc to align correctly and to not look like a tacky explosion of buttons. Seeing a number of sites rolling their own share buttons with counts, for example The Next Web I decided to look into the various APIs on how to simply return the share count.

If you want to roll up all of these into a single jQuery plugin check out Sharrre

Many of these API calls and methods are undocumented, so anticipate that they will change in the future. Also, if you are planning on rolling these out across a site I would recommend creating a simple endpoint that periodically caches results from all of the APIs so that you are not overloading the services will requests.

ExpressionEngine 1.x cookies

This document outlines all of the cookies use by ExpressionEngine 1.x. With the EU cookie law coming into force on May 26th, it's important to know what cookies are set, which are 'essential' and why they are there. Hopefully this will help advise your decision process when altering your site to adhere.

I haven't yet gotten to any special addons etc. or even forums or comments. Please do fork and and send pull requests if you'd care to add anything.

We create an index with:

• two filters: synonyms_expand and synonyms_contract
• two analyzers: synonyms_expand and synonyms_contract
• three text fields:
  • text_1 uses the synonyms_expand analyzer at index and search time
  • text_2 uses the synonyms_expand analyzer at index time, but the standard analyzer at search time
  • text_3 uses the synonyms_contract analyzer at index and search time
