Programing, Coding – MY LESSONS.
January 3, 2009
I have been working on a plugin for wordpress past 4 days now. No, i did not code it from scratch, but i had to use a plugin LCA management for a client blog. But this plugin was not compatible with the WordPress 2.7 version. Now since i had not worked with wordpress plugin API, it was a challenge for me. With lot of referances and lot of google digging and a very few mods here and there, i finally managed to make the plugin work.
So to sum up all in all, this is what i learned from my research and hard work.(My lesson for me—lifetime…
)
Look at the code and try to find out what is happening where.
As in my case , since it was pure php and mysql, i used a lot of echo everywhere to find out what is happening.
Go step by step. Start from beginning and go to the End. Do not assume things happening in the code. Everything in a code has to be systematic and so watch each and every line of code in steps.
Digging for help through google is the best. Use it properly and use very appropriate keywords.
Here in this net world there are a lot of people who are kind enough to share their knowledge with us. So go out there, look for forums and search in there..if you don’t find any, then post your problem. There will be someone sitting at the other end of the globe ready to help you.
The most important. Do not loose patience, if you don’t get success it does’nt mean your code will not work. It means you need to look for each and every corner. More hard work = success guaranteed.
thanks a lot..bye..TC
