While searching for some field api stuff I stumbled on this rather good introduction to the Field API in Drupal 7 and specifically on how to read field contents in a safe manner. If you (as I did) read the below excerpt and feel a little guilty then you should most definitely read the full article. From http:/ www.computerminds.co.uk/articles/rendering-drupal-7-fields-right-way. By S tephen Tweeddale:. Some fields (s...

Insert Raw Code Here: Script ads and their inherent security flaws

http://christophercato.blogspot.com/2014/06/script-ads-and-their-inherent-security.html

Insert Raw Code Here. Friday, June 6, 2014. Script ads and their inherent security flaws. Ad networks have built a reputation as spammers and spyware-peddlers constantly busy shuffling the latest hot banners onto your screens. But lurking amongst those banners is a big security hole that can fill your site with bad content, steal data or even use your visitors as bots. So, what's the danger in this? Your site is secure, you think. Not true! Your site is as secure as the remote scripts you load. Once a vi...

Insert Raw Code Here: Translating the Site Name in Drupal 7

http://christophercato.blogspot.com/2014/06/translating-site-name-in-drupal-7.html

Insert Raw Code Here. Wednesday, June 11, 2014. Translating the Site Name in Drupal 7. Allmost all parts of Drupal are easily translatable but a select few are hidden. The Site name and Slogan are a couple of those. To translate a Drupal 7 Site name you have to activate 'Variable translation' module (which is in the same package as i18n) and the required ones (like 'Variable store'). After you install these modules, go to Configuration - Multilingual settings - Variables tab and choose 'Site name' (?

Insert Raw Code Here: Why Display Suite is a bad idea

http://christophercato.blogspot.com/2014/06/why-display-suite-is-bad-idea.html

Insert Raw Code Here. Thursday, June 5, 2014. Why Display Suite is a bad idea. And why Code Fields are an even worse idea. You start out with three content types and a couple of view modes and everything is hunky-dory. Then the customer has some specific requirements and you say to your self – "Hey, that's kind of a weird thing to do but what the heck, I'll just do a code field and get it done! So, Display Suite? August 14, 2014 at 9:56 AM. October 15, 2014 at 7:20 AM. Entity API module ftw. I live with ...

Insert Raw Code Here: Fabric fabfile for Varnish deploy and ban

http://christophercato.blogspot.com/2014/06/fabric-fabfile-for-varnish-purge-ban.html

Insert Raw Code Here. Friday, June 6, 2014. Fabric fabfile for Varnish deploy and ban. This is the file I use for deploying new vcls and purging stuff from my caches. I've got load balancing with haproxy set up in front of three caches so deploy or purge needs to be done on all three caches pretty much at the same time. I've set up ssh keys on the hosts so I won't have to stuff the fabfile with passwords and such. For more on my load balancing proxy set up, see this post. From future import with statement.

Building a failover load balancing cluster on four machines with HAProxy and Keepalived in Debian Squeeze. So you've got a big-ass VMWare machine with some servers to spare?

The cluster can be extended infinitel...
