Buy Me a Beer plugin bug fix

If you are using the Buy Me a Beer plugin for wordpress, you might not be aware of a bug it has. It’s not that biggie but I noticed this bug breaking my Write Post/Page page when on Safari and iCab browsers. I discovered that there is a missing </div> tag in the plugin’s admin code. This is not a problem if you are using Firefox which is a Gecko based browser. I think Gecko based browsers are more forgiving of bad coding. Safari and iCab uses the WebKit engine which catches wrong syntax written like that.

bug

You can download the fixed file here (buy-me-beer-admin.txt)

  • save it as .php
  • overwrite the same file in your wp-content/plugins/buy-me-beer/ folder.


fugly fununuh.

My site is fuglicious when viewed using ie6. Thanks to Chris for letting me know.

This is how it’s supposed to look:

The list on on my sidebar should have pink arrows and when hovered, changes to gray. There also should be a pink arrow to the left of my entry titles, and when hovered, it changes to gray and a pink arrow shows up too. Then the nunuh.com link to the left of my entries should trigger what you see on the screen grab.

Chris suggested a couple of things I could do and those included adding images… but I was and am butt lazy to make any, plus I wanted the site to be imageless. Heh! : -P I don’t care.. I’m not viewing my page on IE, so I’m terribly sorry if you are. I guess IE 6 users should stay the hell out of this page. Well, that’s until I get tired of this layout or find time to code another one. Haha!

So..
Bubye IE 6 users!!

or download some other browser like Firefox or Flock.

Update

Alright, I had a few minutes to figure out how I could make IE6 read my page a little better. I added this conditional statement that will override my external stylesheet, and it will change the color of my home link minus the black columns. Also, I changed the position values from fixed to absolute. I still need to add a couple classes because IE doesn’t support the pseudo class :before and :after. Most probably not the attribute content either. Bummer!

<!--[if lt IE 7]>
<!– This stylescreen will only be implemented on IE6 and lower –>
<style type=”text/css” media=”screen”>
a#home {position: absolute;}
a#home:hover {border-top: 20px solid #FFF; border-bottom:0px;}
#sarah {visibility: hidden;}
#sideInfo {position: absolute;}
</style>
<!–Geez… I hope this fixed it… –>
<![endif]–>
