Some time ago we started to develop our projects with CodeIgniter. On this basis we were looking for good backend tool and we found BackendPro. Today I started a new project and was looking for some updates on the systems we use. I was surprised to find out that BackendPro was yesterday released in a new version: BackendPro 0.5 (THANK YOU very much Adam Price for this good work).

Here are the tools we actually using:

• Codeigniter 1.7.1
• BackendPro 0.5
• CodeIgniter Language File Translator
• Template Library for CodeIgniter

With the above mentioned tools you can do a lot of good things and get a lot of work done… Have fun!

Today I worked on a plugin for Wordpress. With the migration from my blog to blogorio.us I needed a widget for profile-o-mat. In the old template, for a standalone Wordpress blog, I integrated the widget manually in the sidebar. Now I needed to change this.

After a short look around and some tests I found the following tutorial for writing my plugin: WordPress Widget – Beginners Guide.

With this tutorial I wrote a plugin which is at the moment available on blogorio.us. In the next days you can find more information about this widget in the internet.

Today I want to start my new blog on blogorio.us. Me, this is Christian Schneider, web developer at the University of Koblenz-Landau, Germany and CEO of conlabz.

Some of the topics I will show in the future are:

• PHP development with CodeIgniter
• Plone / Zope development
• ObjectivC development for IPhone application
• JBoss Application Server
