			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As I mentioned in a previous post, one of the things Hack WordPress is most known for is our <a href="http://hackwordpress.com/wordpress-themes/">WordPress theme galleries</a>.   Because of this, we have worked really hard to maintain them by both adding new themes as they are released, as well as removing older themes that are either outdated, are no longer available, or are no longer supported by their authors.  </p>
<p>One of the most common requests I get via <a href="http://hackwordpress.com/contact/">our contact form</a> is to break apart our galleries into more of a niche focused display of WordPress themes.  Because we aim to serve, this post will be the first of a three part series breaking down the premium WordPress themes available.    Next we will be going through our free galleries and looking for more helpful ways to display those as well.</p>
<p>This first WordPress gallery was designed to feature some of the best News and Magazine Premium WordPress themes currently available for purchase.  I included both styles because the lines are kind of blurred between the two and I didn&#8217;t want any debate over which category each one falls under.  Themes are not listed in any particular order and I have included any listed features with the theme whenever it was possible. </p>
<p>Future galleries will include premium blog themes and premium business themes.   Enjoy!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>This guest post was written by <a href="http://www.lyxia.org">Jean-Baptiste Jung</a>, who maintains a blog (written in French) that covers WordPress.  If you have webmaster or WordPress knowledge and are interested in <a href="http://hackwordpress.com/write">writing a post for Hack WordPress</a>, please <a href="http://hackwordpress.com/contact">contact us</a>.</em></p>
<p>Tired of your old navigation?  So, what about creating a Magazine-style drop-down menu?<br />
I propose here a drop-down menu listing your pages and sub pages, including one last item to show up your categories directly in the menu.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.lyxia.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/menu-pages-categories-wordpress.png" alt="" width="500" height="300" /></p>
<h3>HTML and PHP</h3>
<p>We will start by using WordPress core functions in order to retrieve our pages and categories. Edit the <em>header.php</em> of your theme, and replace your old nav code by this one:</p>
<p><code>&lt;ul id="nav" class="clearfloat"&gt;<br />
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="&lt;?php echo get_option('home'); ?&gt;/" class="on"&gt;Home&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;<br />
&lt;?php wp_list_pages('title_li='); ?&gt;<br />
&lt;li class="cat-item"&gt;&lt;a href="#"&gt;Categories&lt;/a&gt;<br />
&lt;ul class="children"&gt;<br />
&lt;?php wp_list_categories('orderby=name&amp;title_li=');<br />
$this_category = get_category($cat);<br />
if (get_category_children($this_category-&gt;cat_ID) != "") {<br />
echo "&lt;ul&gt;";<br />
wp_list_categories('orderby=id&amp;show_count=0&amp;title_li=<br />
&amp;use_desc_for_title=1&amp;child_of='.$this_category-&gt;cat_ID);<br />
echo "&lt;/ul&gt;";<br />
}<br />
?&gt;<br />
&lt;/ul&gt;<br />
&lt;/li&gt;<br />
&lt;/ul&gt;</code></p>
<p>This code will make a list of all our pages and subpages, as well as a last list element named &#8220;Categories&#8221;. When an user will hover top level pages (in case of a page menu) or top level categories, we will show up the related sub pages/categories.</p>
<h3>CSS</h3>
<p>Even if the code is fully functional, our script needs a good CSS styling. This CSS, which was taken from <a href="http://www.darrenhoyt.com/">Darren Hoyt&#8217;s</a> free Mimbo Theme, is perfect for what we want to do.</p>
<p><code>#nav{<br />
background:#222;<br />
font-size:1.1em;<br />
}<br />
#nav, #nav ul {<br />
list-style: none;<br />
line-height: 1;<br />
}<br />
#nav a, #nav a:hover {<br />
display: block;<br />
text-decoration: none;<br />
border:none;<br />
}<br />
#nav li {<br />
float: left;<br />
list-style:none;<br />
border-right:1px solid #a9a9a9;<br />
}<br />
#nav a, #nav a:visited {<br />
display:block;<br />
font-weight:bold;<br />
color: #f5f5f4;<br />
padding:6px 12px;<br />
}<br />
#nav a:hover, #nav a:active, .current_page_item	a, #home .on {<br />

}<br />
#nav li ul {<br />

width: 174px;<br />
border-bottom: 1px solid #a9a9a9;<br />
}<br />
#nav li li {<br />
width: 172px;<br />
border-top: 1px solid #a9a9a9;<br />
border-right: 1px solid #a9a9a9;<br />
border-left: 1px solid #a9a9a9;<br />
background: #777;<br />
}<br />
#nav li li a, #nav li li a:visited {<br />
font-weight:normal;<br />
font-size:0.9em;<br />
color:#FFF;<br />
}<br />
#nav li li a:hover, #nav li li a:active {<br />
background:#000;<br />
}<br />
#nav li:hover ul, #nav li li:hover ul, #nav li li li:hover ul, #nav li.sfhover ul, #nav li li.sfhover ul, #nav li li li.sfhover ul {<br />
left: auto;<br />
}<br />
a.main:hover {<br />
background:none;<br />
}</code></p>
<h3>Javascript</h3>
<p>Modern browsers (Safari, Firefox, Opera, and even Internet Explorer 7) will not have any problem with the <em>:hover</em> pseudo-class on <em>li</em> elements. But as we can easily guess it, the obsolete IE6 can&#8217;t deal with that.</p>
<p>In order to make our script compatible with IE6, we&#8217;ll need to charge this little unobtrusive Javascript code, in the <em>head</em> section our our HTML document, or even better, in a separate .js file.</p>
<p><code><!--//-->&lt;![CDATA[//&gt;&lt;!--<br />
sfHover = function() {<br />
var sfEls = document.getElementById("nav").getElementsByTagName("LI");<br />
for (var i=0; i&lt;sfEls.length; i++) {<br />
sfEls[i].onmouseover=function() {<br />
this.className+=&#8221; sfhover&#8221;;<br />
}<br />
sfEls[i].onmouseout=function() {<br />
this.className=this.className.replace(new RegExp(&#8221; sfhover\\b&#8221;), &#8220;&#8221;);<br />
}<br />
}<br />
}<br />
if (window.attachEvent) window.attachEvent(&#8221;onload&#8221;, sfHover);<br />
//&#8211;&gt;&lt;!]]&gt;</code></p>
<p>Now, your new drop-down menu is ready and will give your blog a professional look.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you consider yourself a WordPress freelancer or at least have good enough hacking skills to do some paid work with WordPress, you may be wondering what the best ways are to find work?  </p>
<p>Over at the Planet Ozh blog, Ozh recently gave some great tips on <a href="http://planetozh.com/blog/2008/05/how-to-find-a-wordpress-job/">how to find WordPress work</a>.   The first tip?  Subscribe to the <a href="http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-pro">WP-Pro mailing list</a>, where job offers are regularly available.   These jobs can range from theme design, coding help, or even basics like installing WordPress. </p>
<p>Other places he mentions to look:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://jobs.wordpress.net/">Official WordPress jobs board</a> - These boards look pretty busy</li>
<li><a href="http://wordpressjob.com/">WordPress Job</a> - Aggregates job offers from several freelancers</li>
</ul>
<p>Your other option is of course to do some work up front and then charge for it, which is how premium theme authors and premium plugin authors make their money.   This way people come to you and they know what they are getting ahead of time. </p>
<p>Any other good places to find WordPress work?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yesterday I wrote a post titled <a href="http://hackwordpress.com/when-has-stealing-blog-content-gone-to-far/">When Has Stealing Content Gone to Far?</a>   At the time of publishing that post, I wasn&#8217;t really sure how it would be received because of the subject matter.   So far all feedback has been pretty positive, so I decided to write a quick follow up post talking about how to deal with getting your content stolen.  Thanks to <a href="http://notwavingblog.com/">Laurence</a> for the idea.</p>
<p>As most people should know, when you publish content, pictures, or whatever else on the internet, there is always some risk that things will get scraped or stolen completely from your website/blog.  Despite everything falling under copyright protection, people sometimes get away with it because it is often difficult to enforce. </p>
<p>So, what can do you to deal with content theft?  Here are two things readers suggested that may help:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Terms and Conditions</strong> - Create a clear terms and condition policy that is findable on your website.   It may not help, but it certainly can&#8217;t hurt anything.   Throw it in the footer of your blog or somewhere that it is accessible. </li>
<li><strong>Use Internal Links in your Posts</strong> - In addition to the SEO benefits of working on your internal linking structure, scraped and sometimes stolen content will often include these links back to your website.  </li>
</ol>
<p>Hopefully those methods will help avoid this in the future, but what can you do when your content has already been stolen? </p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Contact the Offender</strong> - Depending on the situation, some sites may have a contact form or some way to contact the thief.   You can also try checking the domain whois records.  This is a good way to request they delete your stolen content and stop stealing your content in the future.   Though most know they are doing so, a few might not be aware that this is illegal.</li>
<li><strong>Take Action Against the Offender</strong> - If the first option doesn&#8217;t yield any results or there is no way to contact the owner, there are two ways to take action against the thief.   If they use Google AdSense to monetize the site (most do), you can report them to Google by clicking on the &#8220;Ads by Google&#8221; link in the lower right corner of the AdSense box and provide them feedback.  I believe stolen content is actually one of the default options you can check.   The other thing you can do is contact the hosting company and let them know they are hosting websites that are doing illegal practices.  I&#8217;ve heard of people have some success going this route, so it is a great last resort. </li>
</ol>
<p>So, that is what I have.   What do you do to deal with scrapers and content thiefs?</p>
<p>P.S.  Ironically enough, unless there is some sort of screening process that I&#8217;m not aware of, this post will be scraped at least 3 times shortly after publication.   Am I the only one that finds humor in that?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>This guest post was written by </em><a href="http://hayespotter.co.nr/"><em><span style="color: #003366;">Hayes Potter</span></em></a><em>, a 13 year old programmer and web developer that gives webmasters tips on protecting their website from common hacking techniques.

<p>I absolutely love the <a href="http://www.wpthemesfree.com/view.php?theme_id=572">i3 WordPress theme</a>. I used it for my site for about a month, and I had no problems for what I needed. It features a &#8220;mac&#8221; look, has the Mac OS X classic background that fades <a href="http://mytypes.com/seoblogtemplates/binary/images/i3theme.jpg" target="_blank"></a>into the mac&#8217;s &#8220;spotlight blue&#8221;. The sidebars are on the left and right side not attached to the middle content. The separate widgets are each in their own little bubble with a mac like toolbar as the header. The theme displays the pages in the middle content column, and this is one of the very rare themes that display the sub-pages very nicely under the page parent. Also you can move around the columns to your liking, so instead of the content being in the middle you can have it off to the right and the sidebars on the left, and vice versa.</p>
<p><a href="http://mytypes.com/seoblogtemplates/binary/images/i3theme.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="alignright" style="float: right;" src="http://mytypes.com/seoblogtemplates/binary/images/i3theme.jpg" alt="" width="227" height="170" /></a>If you are on the photos section it would display a small little bar under <a href="http://www.smashingmagazine.com/images/impressive-wordpress-themes/beautiful-wordpress-themes-00.jpg" target="_blank"></a>the pages bar displaying the sub pages, but if you are on the home page it will not display these sub pages. It has a built-in search bar in the top right hand corner, and it looks like the spotlight application in Mac OS X 10.4 and higher, except its black. The only problem I&#8217;ve ever had with it is displaying javascript in sidebar, ad- sense would fine, but a simple javascript code would make the sidebar screw up and shift to the bottom of the page. I switched themes because of that and because it is a very popular theme, and I like to switch up my theme every once in a while.</p>
<p>I highly recommend using this theme if you can&#8217;t find a better theme for yourself. Thanks for reading and have a wonderful day!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If your blog has over 100 subscribers on it, it is pretty likely that your blog is probably getting scraped, as they seem to be everywhere anymore.   Hack WordPress currently has 3 blogs scraping its content every time we publish a post, so we&#8217;ve become pretty familiar with them.   But that is not actually what I&#8217;m referring to when I came up with the title of this post.</p>
<p>What I&#8217;m talking about are people that manually reprint an entire post on their &#8220;legitimate&#8221; blogs.  One blog that has been doing this to me (and I assume others) is a blog called WordPress Collection dot com.  The link was intentionally left out.</p>
<p>The two most recent posts (as of publishing this post) are identical copies of two posts in our archives.  Here are our posts:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://hackwordpress.com/how-to-display-the-recent-posts-of-specific-categories/">How To: Display the Recent Posts of Specific Categories</a></li>
<li><a href="http://hackwordpress.com/how-to-prevent-google-from-indexing-your-images/">How To: Prevent Google from Indexing Your Images</a></li>
</ul>
<p>Now, to be fair, I fully understand when dealing with code that it really doesn&#8217;t change, so I have no problem with someone taking one of our code hacks, or someone else&#8217;s posts, and publishing it on their blog.  We have done this on occasion, but we always have a fresh post where only the code is the same, and we link to the source.   Unfortunately with this site, it uses the exact same title and exact same content as our posts, word for word.   The only thing I could find changed is the permalink in the code, which was switched to the permalink of their blog.</p>
<p>So, when does content theft go to far?  I&#8217;ve never liked scrapers but I have learned to live with them.  They usually only reprint a excerpt of the post and link to the source.  This, however, is going to far in my opinion.   At least change the wording around the code and link to the source.  As a result, this website has been added to my blacklist of sites I don&#8217;t visit or link to, etc.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve seen people mention contacting their web hosting as a good method to deal with content theft when something like this gets out of hand.   What methods have you used to deal with content theft?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you take a step back and look at the successful <a href="http://hackwordpress.com/best-premium-wordpress-themes-gallery/">premium WordPress themes</a> available today, the first thing you&#8217;ll notice is that they offer much more than the standard blogging template that most <a href="http://hackwordpress.com/wordpress-themes/">free WordPress themes</a> offer.  You&#8217;ll find <a href="http://hackwordpress.com/best-magazine-style-wordpress-themes/">magazine themes</a>, news themes, video themes, <a href="http://hackwordpress.com/premium-wordpress-themes-omni-theme/">social networking themes</a>, and all sorts of other themes that are designed to function as content management systems.  </p>
<p>In looking at the future of WordPress, my hope is that the standard build of WordPress will continue to grow and many WordPress plugins will fill the gaps to make a fully functional content management system. </p>
<p>Recently BloggingPro did a great job of showing the versatility of WordPress with their post showing <a href="http://www.bloggingpro.com/archives/2008/05/11/7-different-ways-to-use-wordpress/">7 different ways to use WordPress</a>.  In their post, they highlight these 7 ways you can use WordPress:</p>
<ol>
<li>Blogging</li>
<li>Photoblog</li>
<li>Tumblelog</li>
<li>Magazine</li>
<li>Online Shop</li>
<li>Contact Manager and Customer Relations Management</li>
<li>Twitter Platform</li>
</ol>
<p>Click over to see the examples of each!  </p>
<p>I personally use WordPress for most of my content sites, including several static sites, a tumblelog, and of course several blogs.   Its versatility is amazing.   In what unique ways have you used WordPress?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>This guest post was written by Leland of <a href="http://www.themelab.com/">Theme Lab</a>, where he has released over 50 WordPress themes. In addition to themes, Theme Lab also provides some WordPress guides. If you have WordPress knowledge and are interested in <a href="../write">writing a post for Hack WordPress</a>, please <a href="../contact">contact us</a>.</em></p>
<p><em></em>In this guide you&#8217;ll learn how to display Adsense on just your first post within the Loop.  Sure, there may be plugins that will do this for you.  This guide, however, will use code examples to accomplish the same thing by editing your WordPress theme.</p>
<p>The first step is to open up your index.php file in your theme editor.  Find the following line:</p>
<p><code>&lt;?php if(have_posts()) : ?&gt;</code></p>
<p>Just above that, insert the following like this:</p>
<p><code>&lt;?php $i = 1; ?&gt;<br />
&lt;?php if(have_posts()) : ?&gt;</code></p>
<p>Now, scroll down a bit until you find this line:</p>
<p><code>&lt;?php endwhile; ?&gt;</code></p>
<p>Insert the following above it, like so:</p>
<p><code>&lt;?php $i++; ?&gt;<br />
&lt;?php endwhile; ?&gt;</code></p>
<p>The final step is to insert your Adsense code.  Locate where exactly you&#8217;d like it within the Loop, and place it between a conditional tag like this:</p>
<p><code>&lt;?php if ($i == 1) { ?&gt; [YOUR ADSENSE CODE HERE] &lt;?php } ?&gt;</code></p>
<p>And that&#8217;s all you have to do.  You can be creative with this code as well.  You could add a certain css style class to the top post in your Loop.  It doesn&#8217;t even have to be the first either, as you can just change the number in $i == 1 to whatever you want.  This same method can be used in other archive templates such as archive.php.</p>
<p>You can <a title="Displaying Adsense and other ads with WordPress" href="http://www.themelab.com/2008/03/13/displaying-adsense-and-other-ads-with-wordpress/">display ads with WordPress</a> in other ways as well, including plugins such as <a title="WhyDoWork Adsense Plugin" href="http://www.whydowork.com/blog/whydowork-adsense-plugin/">WhyDoWork Adsense Plugin</a> (formerly <a href="http://hackwordpress.com/insert-adsense-into-posts-with-shylock-adsense/">Shylock Adsense</a>).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>This guest post was written by </em><em><a href="http://hayespotter.co.nr">Hayes Potter</a></em><em>, who is a 13 year old programmer and web developer that gives webmasters tips on protecting their website from common hacking techniques. If you have webmaster or WordPress knowledge and are interested in <a href="../write">writing a post for Hack WordPress</a>, please <a href="../contact">contact us</a>.</em></p>
<p><em></em>Today I want to ask all the web masters out there &#8220;Is your site hackable?&#8221;. I&#8217;m a test hacker, and I&#8217;ve seen some very popular sites get hacked in some of the simplest ways. Hacking wordpress is actually quite easy if you know what your doing. Two words my friend, &#8220;SQL Injections&#8221;, most people bypass this thought when they make a blog. Even know wordpress login forms prevent SQL Injections but what about form making plugins? Always check to see if your site is hackable through SQL Injections, for more information on simple hacking with SQL Injection visit my post about it by clicking <a href="http://xnme.exofire.net/2008/05/07/simple-sql-injection-hacking-techniques/">here</a>.</p>
<p>Also if you have a &#8220;robots.txt&#8221; file in your home directory, keep in mind that disallowing search engines doesn&#8217;t disallow people! Never leave directories with password&#8217;s in them, even if it is encrypted. If you have to password protect the director and/or password file. Also always keep your cgi-bin password protected because a lot of file management systems use it to keep passwords that you use. I know some cPanel file management systems do. So always check your site for rogue password files and SQL Injection prevention.</p>
<p><em>Editor&#8217;s Note: If you aren&#8217;t very familiar with some of this terminology, your best bet is to always keep your WordPress blogs upgraded to the latest version of WordPress. </em></p>
<h3><strong>Learning More About Javascript Injections</strong></h3>
<p>Ok, for those of you who don&#8217;t know what javascript injections are, they are ways to manipulate the page source of any web page. Some very simple javascript injections are to simply display an alert box with any text you want. To execute any form of javascript injection enter &#8220;javascript:&#8221; in the URL bar in your browser, then after the colon you can enter any javascript code in the same way you would in a normal web page. For example if you type in &#8220;javascript:var a = &#8220;hello world!&#8221;; alert(a)&#8221; in the URL bar an alert box would pop-up displaying the value of the variable &#8220;a&#8221;.</p>
<p>Now that you know the basics to javascript injections lets learn how to hack with them, as you should know javascript can manipulate anything on a web page. Here is a simple way to hack into a username on a website. Although the site you try to hack you have to be logged into that site. Once logged in type in the following javascript injection in the URL bar: &#8220;javascript:alert(document.cookie)&#8221;. This will display the cookie information that the site has on you, look for something like &#8220;user_id=xxx&#8221; or &#8220;PHPSESSID=xxx&#8221;. Typically you want to change this string&#8217;s value to 1, because the administrator is usually user_id number 1. To change it type in the following in the URL bar: &#8220;javascript:void(document.cookie user_id=1);alert(document.cookie);&#8221;. Now the user_id&#8217;s value should be 1, so refresh the page and you should be logged in as the administrator.</p>
<p>Please remember that you should never mess around with someones site. Always contact the administrator if you find a security hole in their site. Now remember how I said javascript can manipulate anything on a webpage? Well lets start manipulating stuff, for the basics we can just start with forms. Lets say a web page has a form to buy something using a debit card or something like that. Lets say the price for this item is fifty dollars, now lets manipulate this price. Lets say the submit button is a form itself, and it has no other values. In the URL bar type the following: &#8220;javascript:void(document.forms[0] = $1.00)&#8221;. Ultimately this will change price to one dollar, yes! The &#8220;[0]&#8221; represents the form number on the page, for example if there are 3 forms on a page. The first one would be labeled &#8220;0&#8243; the second one &#8220;1&#8243; and the third one &#8220;2&#8243;.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As I mentioned in a post written last month, I wanted to <a href="http://hackwordpress.com/wanted-wordpress-resources/">collect everyones WordPress resources</a> so I could throw together a WordPress resources page. After all, WordPress is community-based and it seemed like a good way to support WordPress users. I am proud to say that I was able to combine my favorite WordPress sites with yours to create a <a href="http://hackwordpress.com/resources/">WordPress resources</a> page here at Hack WordPress, which I hope people will find useful.</p>
<p>If you are wondering why a couple sites are left off the list, it is probably for one of two reasons. The first is that I don&#8217;t know about it and the second is because I had to leave off (for the most part) any submitted blogs that occasionally write about WordPress (such as a category or whatever). This is because the collection of WordPress resources is already very large and these types of lists can get out of hand if you don&#8217;t draw the line somewhere.</p>
<p>As with my <a href="http://hackwordpress.com/wordpress-themes/">WordPress theme galleries</a> and other lists I maintain here, my ultimate goal is to keep this page useful. As a result, I will make every attempt to keep this page updated over time. You can help by <a href="http://hackwordpress.com/contact/">letting us know</a> if you find any invalid links or you would like to see something added.</p>
<p>As for the list itself, here is what I&#8217;ve collected so far:</p>
