@David

Please read again both of my comments, http://inchoo.net/tools/inchoos-magento-developer-toolbar-prototype/#comment-3754 and http://inchoo.net/tools/inchoos-magento-developer-toolbar-prototype/#comment-3756. I never said they stole my code. I merely added side-by comment related to fraud business.

It was not my intention to throw negative marketing at you guys/girls. All I know is that I expect to see a bit more info on about page like yours http://www.mage-world.com/about-us/ when I am planning to give someone my money over online purchase.

Stuff like “Please notify us. We are professionals, we understand what the clients need and we will serve you in the shortest possible time with your maximum satisfaction.” do not give any real info. Who are “We”? real names, etc…

Cheers.

Hi Branko…

Like Tomislav said and well, I was “wondering” exactly the opposite …

It was so you could take measures like … humm, something that you could do was what NIck told Craig some time ago (I was one of proud user of tooltip until Craig had to shut down the project)

more here: http://naspinski.net/post/Is-Nick-Stakenburg-bullying-his-open-source-competitor.aspx

I do hate this, and I do hate your efforts to help us, merely developers on this nice platform that we call Magento, I do love your articles and they have helped me putting a nice Webshop up and running.

My “wondering” was really to tell you (in a nice way) that your code had been stolen and you should do something regarding it

still friends?

@Tomislav & @Bruno

In that case, my apologize Bruno. I am a bit sick of copycats like Asia Connect and all other fraud business.

Here is a nice thread that describes the related MageWorld issues http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/53479/.

I just cant grasp the fact that Varien allows them to be a member on the forum http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/member/162353. Its more than obvious that that something is out of order. Their contact information are less then obscure.

Hey Branko. I believe he was implying the opposite

@Bruno

What exactly are you wondering? Implying I stole the code? This is my code! The http://www.mage-world.com stinks to me like Asia Connect guys… the one I wrote previously, the ones that steal other people code and articles.

If you’re using the sample data setup for developing, you can just go to the configuration in the admin, select the ‘French’ store for example, and set that to show path hints. Then just go between the English and French stores to enable/disable them. That’s how I do it, works fine.

Hi Erik,

That links seems to be broken, but this one works: http://classyllama.com/blog/enable-templateblock-hints-in-admin-panel/

This is great! I’ve been thinking about building a toolbar just like this, but never got around to it. It would be nice if this toolbar would show up in the admin panel, and would allow you to turn on template/block hints in the admin. You can see a blog post I wrote about how to enable those hints in the admin panel: http://classyllama.com/enable-templateblock-hints-in-admin-panel/

This looks extremely handy and would save so much time jumping about in the control panel. Has it made it to release level yet?

The idea is so good that I couldn’t resist on trying to implement it… I hope Branko move on to a working version fast! Very good.

Craig — Tue, 28 Jul 2009 18:47:41 +0000

amadex, that’s because this is basically a proof-of-concept. You shouldn’t be installing this. He posted it to show everyone that it can be done. He posted the code to show how it’s going to be done. It’s not intended to be used just yet.

Hi! The idea is great, but when I click any of the options (after double checking that everything is placed like you instruct), it keeps giving me a 404 error…

@Romeo Adrian Cioaba

Excellent idea. Hopefully during this week I will have time to write the first working version. After which we can setup the project under Launchpad. During these days I was doing some “thinking” on what features to throw in… got several ideas so far. Using Zend_Wildfire cross my mind. I was thinking in terms of extending (overwriting) core Mage exception class so that besides regular work it does an output to FirePHP.

This is a great idea.

Would be great if you guys could put this on launchpad.net or google code or anywhere so that anyone can contribute to it.

The 1st thing that comes in mind would be to extend this “toolbar” to use Zend_Wildfire and Zend_Log to write messages straight to Firebug.
