Comment on Resolving conflicts in Subversion (SVN) by Rob

Ya, conflicts can be a pain, but they really depend on the size of the team and are sometimes unavoidable. Its a good idea to be aware of who else is working on the same files as you, however thats not always possible. Anyway its good to know how to fundamentally resolve conflicts, there is a good resource on it here: http://www.duchnik.com/tutorials/vc/svn-conflicts

You made a few good points there. I did a search on the topic and barely found any specific details on other sites, but then great to be here, seriously, thanks.

Comment on PayPal Express checkout IPN notification bug by Stan Kuhn

Stan Kuhn — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 17:58:37 +0000

Hi Dave. IPN paypal service is not must have. You may be using paypal checkout without IPN. If your IPN url in paypal account is empty it doesn’t necessarily mean something is badly configured. On the other hand if you are using pay button or simple cart solution from our experience integration without IPN leads to quite a lot “unprocessed orders”. This is due the fact that without IPN your website gets notified about result of payment only when customer goes back to your website straight after payment. Which many times doesn’t happen for various reasons. So if there is some functionality on your website happening on successful payment notification like update of stock or order status or send email to customer these may not happen always. If your IPN configuration does not contain URL you can be sure you haven’t got it activated. You need to have script on your website which is able to receive and process IPN notification from paypal, you must know about it to know what to put in IPN configuration.
If you need commercial help with your website drop me an email stan@lampwebde…..

Comment on PayPal Express checkout IPN notification bug by Dave

I am using a script to sell downloads. And many times a customer will not receive a password or username or a welcome email from my site on multiple purchases (usually when they have more than 8 or so products in their shopping cart). I thought something was wrong with my site. I looked into the IPN settings and the field for the URL on PayPal’s IPN page is empty. I don’t know what to put in that field. I get “zero” help from my sites developer so any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Dave

Comment on Eclipse Helios PDT, PHPEclipse, Smarty and some feelings about it by Nikola

That’s a shame I really like the Helios PDT. Since my work is mainly server side coding, I have given up on the smarty plugin and installed the PDT. On the other hand I do have to write some templates now and again. That is why It would be great if there was a way to integrate smarty with the PDT. Thanks again guys!

I tried your work-around it works fine, thanks. However have you, by now, found a way to install only the smarty plug-in on a PDT Helios?

So I tried it as well. I’ve got installed Eclipse Helios classic, with phpEclips plugin.. its good that it has some support for smarty (higlighting and basic code completition), but I was expecting better php support. code autocompletition is not as smart as in other plugins. It was missing some basic php functions such as empty(), or isset() .. Maybe I did something wrong. Anyway,I think its worth of trying.
