Tip on Website Structure

6 Replies

Greetings!

Just a few days ago I have encountered a Website Structure that made me really sad. Upon opening the folder I was shocked how was the file structure was handled. I think I can share how you should do the structuring of your files if your going to create a website with any programming language out of scratch.

  1. First group your files accordingly
    • You put all your javascript files inside a folder, let say js,  in which all javascript files are there and no where else. Inside it you can again group it accrdingly to what javascript its all about. If your using jquery put it under a js/jquery folder, if your using tinymce put it on js/tinymce, and so on.
    • The same thing goes to css and other files. Group them so you can easily find them
  2. Second, Use consistent file type
               If your going to use PNG use png in all cases. If your not using transparent images then use JPG.
  3. Lastly, Use naming conventions that you can easily remember

These aren’t all that you can do. But I can say that this can help in improving the readability of your website when you are giving over the development or getting help from another developer. Next time I will be giving some tips on coding on PHP.

Thanks,

6 Replies

Hi there, I have search the net and this person found a way to get the slug the easier way.

 

The common approach:

$post_obj = $wp_query-&gt;get_queried_object();
$post_ID = $post_obj-&gt;ID;
$post_title = $post_obj-&gt;post_title;
$post_slug = $post_obj-&gt;post_name;

His approach:

$slug = basename(get_permalink());
That's it. Just include it inside the_loop.

If that’s what you want. Yahoo is give you one (1) extra email that you can change every year. Yahoo extra Email address put an extra email address on top of your current email.

For an example, your email is myemail@yahoo.com and you avail an extra email address maynameisone@yahoo.com. When you login using maynameisone@yahoo.com, you will be having the same inbox you have on your myemail@yahoo.com.

It means you have two email account having one inbox.

What is the benefit?

  1. Have your the same account but different email.
  2. Set the extra email as your main email.(For those person who had non-nonprofessional email address yet want to maintain the said email)
