May 9th • No Comments • Under: Understanding Web • Tags: openid

With OpenID SeatBelt plugin (developed by VeriSign) you can now manage your OpenID identities and delegations right inside Firefox. This plugin automatically fills-in OpenID input fields on websites and blogs that support OpenID authentication. It also enables fast identity provider (IdP) switching and protects against OpenID phishing attempts.

In one of the future posts I will explain how to add a SeatBelt configuration file to phpMyID single indentity provider software so that it can be used with your privately installed OpenID.

Baltic Amber Themes in the Wild

May 6th • No Comments • Under: WordPress

Are you using Baltic Amber Themes & Schemes and have customized the colour pallet to your own preferences?

If so, let’s spread the word and make the developer (me) smile — please take a screenshot of the ‘Write Post’ section of your WordPress dashboard and send it to screenshots@konstruktors.com or upload it somewhere online and send only the link (or leave it in comments). As soon as the first screenshot comes in I will create a gallery at the end of this post.

It would be really great if you could include also the colour hex values and your blog or homepage URL which I could link to from the caption of your screenshot. Thank you so much!

Baltic Amber Admin Themes & Schemes Now With a Colour Picker

May 5th • No Comments • Under: WordPress • Tags: plugin, WordPress

Latest version of Baltic Amber Themes & Schemes plugin now includes a very simple and easy to use colour picker so that you never have to search for those hexadecimal values again. In the ‘Baltic Amber Colour Settings’ page simply click on the color input field and a color wheel will pop up offering you the whole spectrum of colours to choose from.

If you are upgrading from one of the previous versions of this plugin, please don’t forget to clear your browser cache by simply refreshing the settings page.

The new feature for selecting scheme colours is based on the amazing work of Steven Wittens who built Farbtastic color picker as a plugin for jQuery javascript library.
