This is a great place to learn about Wordpress - lots of useful tips, links, news, templates, themes, etc. Wordpress has made it possible for anyone to have a website and my story is that I used it to win kudos from my boss who needed some employees quickly to help clean up after a public event. He gave me a small Adwords budget and I quickly set up the website and got it live. We wanted local people only, so we restricted the ads to run in a 10 mile radius of town. The site was one page and focused on part time, short term cleaning jobs - my boss was acting as a subcontractor for a large cleaning services company that got overbooked. We bid about $1 per click and got a team together in less than a week. That is real success!

The Wiki publishing concept was invented by Ward Cunningham and have become popular for information management, note taking, intranets, and documentation. The best know wiki site is Wikipedia and it is one of the most visited websites in the world.

More and more people use the internet to search for information they need and expect to find solutions instantly. While it is common for people to follow blogs that cover their interests and problem areas, I would say that a well-organized and maintained Wiki site often is worth a visit. As an example it is common for popular games to have large Wiki sites that document game tactics and basic guidelines. Wiki sites typically provide entries with great detailed that authors have backed up by relevant sources. Moreover, information in Wiki sites are classified into categories making it easy for users to scan and search some terms, which are related to their needs.  In this review, I will take a closer look at iKnowledge – Knowledge Base, which is a cool Wiki WordPress Theme: the theme you will need for building your own wiki site on WordPress.

Storing up a knowledge database for quick information search is very essential for running a business. FAQs, Procedures and Help Guides are usually the most commonly sought after topics in company knowledge databases. Wiki style websites serve as a great solution for managing complex information within a company or department.

iKnowledge Theme has a clean and simple design and it does not add much fuss to distracting users and it clearly seeks to highlight your content. It has four color styles to choose from and it comes with two additional custom page templates you can use: full width and archives page. Getting content feedback is easy with its build rating system. Being Further, it comes with a post view counter to help track your article views on site. Homepage is fully widgetized meaning you can customize the page layout from the WordPress Widget area.  It is also loaded with useful shortcode so you can insert buttons, columns, tabs and toggles, menus and post styles within the site. In addition, iKnowledge is translation ready for localization in case you want to set up wiki sites for specific languages. Let us get deeper into this theme’s details and features.

50+ JavaScript Testing Frameworks – Wipe Out Bugs!h2

 Ahrefmag Editorial Web Development

JavaScript is a powerful and extremely popular client scripting language. It is responsible for most of the dynamic effects and app like features available in website today. However, JavaScript is not as easy to use as most developers would like it to be. With the arrival of JavaScript libraries such as jQuery life got a lot easier in many situations, but whenever you need to dive into coding yourself you risk running into the difficulties JavaScript offer.

One of the most important aspects of software development is testing. Testing is often not prioritized and automated to the extent test managers recommend. Worst case the result is fragile and buggy code that make users pull out their hair. So how do you mitigate this risk? As in any other aspect of software development, it is a good idea to implement best practice processes and rely on experience and proven solutions. When it comes to testing JavaScript code there are no excuses for inventing the wheel yourself. There are tons of JavaScript testing frameworks available to help you automate and optimize the process. Most of the solutions are unit test suites that help developers and teams test code before it is submitted and integrated into larger projects.

I have found more than 50 frameworks for testing JavaScript so dive in and find one that will suit your needs. If you are not sure how these test solutions are used, I recommend you check this tutorial at net.tuts.comh2.
