Google Analytics Manager from PluginLab

Saturday, December 23rd, 2006

I just found this little tool while looking for something else, as usual, and I wanted to share the information with all of you. It is called Google Analytics Manager. It is a Dreamweaver extention and it helps putting the tracking code in all the pages of a given site. And as a bonus, it’s free like the Google Analytics web application. If you want more info, se the PluginLab Product page.

YouTube Addon 1.0.0 Released

Thursday, November 2nd, 2006

Just to be sure everybody will know it and also find it, I decided to create this post. So, Yes I have finally released my YouTube Addon. You can find it here on this web site on this page. It was originally made for Property Center a Real Estate agents company located in Sosúa, Dominican Republic. They have agreed with me to release it as an Open Source OR Addon. For more details and documentation follow the above link and for support, come to the Open-Realty Addon support forum on the Open-Realty web site.

ISO8859-1 to UTF-8

Thursday, August 31st, 2006

In an attempt simplify futher developement on DRlistings.com, we have decided to change the default charactor set of our web site. First, it makes the links directory render correctly i.e. without the strange charactors that were appearing for the foreign language as this tool is setup to work in UTF-8 by default. The new Dominican Republic News had this same requirement.
For the English reader, it doesn’t make much difference but for the Latin languages it does make a difference.
It was also required to simplify the use of the URL Rewriting that we are using now extensively.
From our clients point of view, it doesn’t make any difference also since it doesn’t involve any new particular attention when they edit their listings.
We may explain later, in french, how this was done and how easy it was to implement it. But the article will be submitted to Paul’s web space on MSN Space.
See ya!

Real Estate Web site template.

Sunday, August 13th, 2006

So finally we have made it! Yes everything is set up now for us to create some real estate web site with cross advertising on DRListings.com. The idea was simple but we had to work on it. There is some sample so you can look at it. There is the VIP Caribbean Property web site that we just created for one of our client that was interested by this brilliant idea. We are planning on using this same system for our other domain name like www.sosua-real-estate.com and www.cabarete-real-estate.com. Stay tuned.
