			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As you may have noticed, we have distributed a new software package to your server called Softaculous. Softaculous is an automated script installation program similar to Fantastico, which you may already be using. The Softaculous software is immediately available to all of your accounts on your server in the cPanel interface.</p>
<p>If you have previously used Fantastico, your existing script installations have already been imported into Softaculous. From now on you will need to use Softaculous to install or manage existing script installations and cease using Fantastico. You will find that Softaculous is organized in a similar way to Fantastico and installations and upgrades are straightforward.</p>
<p>We decided to switch to Softaculous because it offers greater script choices and quicker update times on existing software, especially when there is a security issue. This will help better protect your account(s) from intrusion by making it easier to stay up to date on software you have installed (e.g. WordPress, Drupal, etc.)</p>
<p>On January, 5th 2012 (next Thursday) we will be completely removing Fantastico from your server and it will no longer be available after that point. Remember, no harm will come to your existing script installations because we have already imported everything into Softaculous.</p>
<p>If you have any questions or concerns about the switch or trouble using Softaculous, please <a href="http://www.tierrahosting.com/submitticket" title="http://www.tierrahosting.com/submitticket">submit a ticket</a>.</p>

<p>TIERRA Hosting&#8217;s responded that they are very pleased by this merger, &#8220;Texas Hostin joining the TIERRA family is a great opportunity for our friends and neighbors in Texas to monopolize on the fantastic infrastructure that makes up TIERRA Hosting&#8221;.

<p>Texas Hostin has been in the web hosting industry since 2010. Since that time they have accumulated 118 hosted clients. All clients of the company will automatically be &#8220;rolled over&#8221; to TIERRA Hosting. In addition, 2 servers under Texas Hostin&#8217;s control will be migrated to TIERRA Hosting&#8217;s control.</p>
<p>It was also mentioned that Texas Hostin will be getting a face-lift as the designers of TIERRA Hosting are creating a new and unique website for them. When visited websites&#8217; address at <a href="http://www.texashost.in" title="http://www.texashost.in">http://www.texashost.in</a> presents a clean and appealing web page.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Want to add a really neat file extension that is exclusive to just your website? Well, wait no longer!</p>
<p><small>This requires you to have server access and ability to create and modify files on the server.</small></p>
<p>I&#8217;m going to teach you how to create a cool file extension like <strong>.iamcool</strong>.</p>
<p>First thing you need to do is add the following to your .htaccess file:</p>
<p>    <code>AddType application/x-httpd-php5 .php .iamcool</code></p>
<p>Now that you have added that, let me explain it. You are adding to your <strong>php.ini</strong>, via a <strong>htaccess</strong> file. You are basically saying that you want to use php version 5, and when doing so, parse the code as <strong>php</strong> if it is a file ending as <strong>iamcool</strong>.</p>
<p>Next, you want to create a file, in this instance, you can view the file I created and it is named </p>
<p><a href="http://www.gooyahing.com/extension.iamcool">extension.iamcool</a></p>
<p>I could have simply named it <strong>extension.php</strong>, but that&#8217;s not very unique!</p>
<p>So, within this file I saved the following code:</p>
<p><code>< ?php echo "hello world"; ? ></code></p>
<p>This creates the following:</p>
<blockquote><p>hello world</p></blockquote>
<p>That&#8217;s it! Now visit my webpage <a href="http://www.gooyahing.com/extension.iamcool">extension.iamcool</a> and see that it is parsing the php code.</p>
<br /><script type="text/javascript">
  addthis_url    = 'http%3A%2F%2Fblog.tierrahosting.com%2Fposts%2F80';
  addthis_title  = 'Unique+File+Extensions%21';
  addthis_pub    = 'tierrahosting';

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span class="postbody">We have begun upgrading all of our servers to PHP Version 5.2.6 and MySQL 5.0.67.</p>
<p>If after the change to PHP 5 you still need to use PHP 4, you can insert the following code in your .htaccess file:<br />
</span></p>
<table border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" width="90%" align="center">
<tbody>
<tr>

</tr>
<tr>
<td class="code">AddHandler application/x-httpd-php4 .php</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p><span class="postbody"><br />
That will be a short-term fix though as we will remove PHP 4 from our servers within the next three months.</span></p>
