Recently I updated the corporate Feng Office App to a version 3.4.4.1 and found that some custom properties are not showing in the task view. These custom properties were all of type: List. The values were saving correctly into the db and worked fine in edit view, but as I said, not in the task view. Continue reading

Bash script: Search for text in a web app
I started taking small steps into bash scripting with this little tool that help me find a lot of useful stuff in Vtiger, but it can be applyed to anything else with some little mods. This script finds files in Vtiger installation that contain the text requested. It is reporting on the file name and path and also highligsts the line than contains the text. So here is the script.

Missing panel in Ubuntu Mate?
So something went wrong and your panel does no longer appear even after the restart. Here is what you can do after you pulled all the hair.
- Open your terminal window by clicking the desktop and choosing Open in Terminal
- Type
mate-panel --reset
and press Enter
That should do it, But what if it doesn’t?
- Open terminal again and type
mate-control-center
and press Enter
- Go to Look And Feel tab on the left and chose Tweak on the right
- Find where panel settings reside and chose any look of panel that you like and tweak some settings
It has not solved too much for me because the bottom panels were not showing no matter what, but at least I could work and search for the further fixes.
WordPress permalinks are broken after network setup? here is the quick fix
So sometimes when you have permalinks set up and working in you WordPress installation they would break if you convert your site to network (to WPMU).
So the most obvious solution for this is to go to Admin panel and get to Settings -> Permalinks again and set up them the way they were before.

Trimming html tags with regular expression in Geany

Hey, Pingers!
Today I had some crazy amount of html generated by MS Word that I needed to post on our corporate website. The problem was that MS Word adds a dramatical ammount of shit to your page, when it comes to html. So pasted on a website this text was in multiple colors, multiple language tags and with different crap enclosed into attributes.
Editing this by hand was not a very nice option, because of the amount of the content and broken-MS-word-formatting.
So, take a look on my workaround… Continue reading →
