perfectly tech wise it is not feature complete yet but it is already filled with nice tips about nice design art and furniture for your home in danish go visit http livingsweetliving dk to check it out how to edit chrome thumbnails published on 24 november 2009 in chrome google browser 3 comments i just wanted to shared this tip if anyone else wants a bit of control over the thumbnails that show up in the new tab page of chrome for me it was annoying that it had saved the http twitter com url because the front page has the stupid login box where you have to get your mouse going instead i want it to go to http twitter com home which has a much better login box this is not supported by chrome as far as i can tell so i went digging and i found a small file that contains the tabs in my case on xp in danish it is here c documents and settings morten bock sã rensen lokale indstillinger application data google chrome user data default preferences update i now upgraded to windows 7 and here the file is found in c users morten bock sã rensen appdata local google chrome user data default preferences open it with your favorite text editor and look near the bottom there is a list of pinned_urls in what looks like json to me i just changed the link i needed from 1cc089548931c4fe0463e7a98ec6078e direction ltr index 2 title twitter home url http twitter com home 1cc089548931c4fe0463e7a98ec6078e direction ltr index 2 title twitter home url http twitter com to 1cc089548931c4fe0463e7a98ec6078e direction ltr index 2 title twitter home url http twitter com home and off we go just remember to do this while chrome is closed otherwise it will overwrite your changes importing wordpress posts to umbraco published on 13 oktober 2009 in umbraco wordpress blog linq2xml 3 comments as you may have noticed my blog has changed a bit this week i finally got around to porting it to umbraco i did this for several reasons but mainly because i feel at home with umbraco and i can tweak it to do just about anything i want wordpress on the other hand is php and i just suck at that so there you go anyhow after setting up my document types in umbraco i needed to figure out how to get all my old content into the new site wordpress offers to export the entire content as xml so that part was easy the exported file was 3mb mainly because of some sort of screwed up tags back from when i was using the ultimate tag warrior i will miss the cool plugin names from wordpress which spit out a whole lot of empty tags the exported format is basically an rss feed but with some extra elements added by wordpress one of those is an lt excerpts encoded gt element which does not have a namespace declaration at the top thus making it invalid xml so i needed to fix this before handling the file in my import routine i just added it to the rss element lt rss version 2 0 xmlns content http purl org rss 1 0 modules content xmlns excerpt http purl org rss 1 0 modules excerpt xmlns wfw http wellformedweb org commentapi xmlns dc http purl org dc elements 1 1 xmlns wp http wordpress org export 1 0 gt sweet now the xml is all nice and tidy and ready to be imported so how to do the import well i decided to do it through the umbraco api using a dashboard usercontrol to get the content from the xml file i chose to go with linq2xml which is pretty neat for navigating through the xml file first thing i did was to disable some lucene lock because it made my import fail due to the number of operations done i also set the script timeout value a bit high just to be sure server scripttimeout 300 lucene net store fsdirectory setdisablelocks true now to load the xml file pretty easy i later added the possibility to enter the xml in a textarea instead thus the commented out line xdocument loaded xdocument load server mappath usercontrols wordpress 2009 08 01 xml xdocument loaded xdocument parse wpxmltextbox text xnamespace wpns xnamespace get http wordpress org export 1

this is because wordpress doesn t save html but puts in linebreaks and renders paragraph tags at render time brrrr there are also some source tags leftover from the syntax highlighter plugin that i need to change these are the three methods i am using to parse the text public static string createparagraphtags string postbody stringbuilder sb new stringbuilder sb append lt p gt sb append postbody replace n n lt p gt lt p gt sb append lt p gt return sb tostring public static string changeimageurls string postbody string parsedstring regex replace postbody src wp content src media images regexoptions singleline return regex replace parsedstring href wp content href media images regexoptions singleline public static string parsecodeblocks string postbody regex regpattern new regex source source regexoptions singleline dictionary lt string string gt replacevalues new dictionary lt string string gt int i 0 foreach match match in regpattern matches postbody string code match groups 3 value if code contains lt code code replace lt amp lt replace gt amp gt postbody postbody replace match value string format replacecode 0 i replacevalues add string format replacecode 0 i lt pre gt code lt pre gt i foreach keyvaluepair lt string string gt replacevalue in replacevalues postbody postbody replace replacevalue key replacevalue value return postbody it s not perfect for example it added some strange lt p gt tags inside my code blocks but no more than i could handle by doing manual updates for these methods i added some unit tests it is just so much nicer to work with regex when you have tests to see if you are breaking existing matches while changing this stuff so there you have it posts imported and ready to go it s so easy i don t know why i didn t get around to it before natur energi bruger ufine metoder published on 10 august 2009 in energi natur svindel 42 comments jeg vil gerne lige gã re mit til at advare mod selskabet natur energi der tilsyneladende ikke har meget respekt for forbrugernes rettigheder flere andre har ogsã have uheldige oplevelser med dem som f eks tonni der blev svindlet med nog bil streamer vã rk http ekstrabladet dk kup
