Rewrite Rule Rewrite Cond

I have to put aside my experiment with OsCommerce for a while. I need to learn more about url rewriting, because there is a need in my project.

So this is the content of .htaccess file:


RewriteBase /
DirectoryIndex home.php
RewriteEngine On

ErrorDocument 404 /home.php

# >> DOES NOT HAVE QUERY STRING?
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING) ""

RewriteRule ^(.+)=(.+) $1/$2
RewriteRule ^search/(.+)/(.+)/$ search.php?$1=$2

# >> capture both having trailing / and not
RewriteRule ^search/(.+)/(.+)$ search.php?$1=$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^search/(.?)$ search.php [L]

# >> HAS QUERY STRING? and it is right behind / !!!
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s(.+)/\?(.+)\s
RewriteRule ^(.*)/?$ %1/%2?
RewriteRule ^(.+)=(.+) $1/$2 [R]

# >> HAS QUERY STRING?
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING) ^(.+)/$
RewriteRule ^search(.+)=(.+) search/$1/$2 [L]

http://mesin-uang.local/search/
will make a flow like this:

There is still other possibilities.

http://mesin-uang.local/search/
http://mesin-uang.local/search/key1/value1/
http://mesin-uang.local/search/?key1=value1
http://mesin-uang.local/search.php
http://mesin-uang.local/search.php?key1=value1

Too many possibilities? Maybe. But it's really challenging if we can make a ruleset (in one single htaccess) that works for all.

Begin Templating - Step 1

2009-09-17T07:17:00.000-07:00

Now I want to start templating. A brief overview of Oscommerce templating can be found here.

My first impression is that Oscommerce version 3 is far better than version 2. Version 3 had employed template, using object oriented, better installation process, and many more improvements. But I feel that the files are (still) scattered in the designed directory structure. Compared to other cms framework (such as Joomla, Drupal, even Wordpress), IMHO, they provide better way to manage template files.

It seems, Oscommerce customization is intended for developers. Not end user.

What I do first, as I learning by doing, is copy and rename downloaded template files.

I need to:
- make a folder under oscommerce's root folder, like this: [oscommerce3_root]/templates/[my_template]
- create [my_template].php, also in [oscommerce3_root]/templates/
- create [my_template].php inside [oscommerce3_root]/admin/includes/templates/

Then inside [oscommerce3_root]/admin/includes/templates/[my_template].php, I need to edit class osC_Template_batik_lovers_01 to define groups. Groups is term for content area in pages. I made it like this:


  class osC_Template_batik_lovers_01 {
    var $_id,
        $_title = 'batik_lovers_01',
        $_code = 'batik_lovers_01',
        $_author_name = 'freeoscommerce.com',
        $_author_www = 'http://www.freeoscommerce.com',
        $_markup_version = 'XHTML 1.0 Transitional',
        $_css_based = '1', /* 0=No; 1=Yes */
        $_medium = 'Screen',
        $_groups = array('boxes' =>
                             array(
                                'search-box', 'language-box',
                                'user-menu', 'sidebar-top', 'sidebar-bottom',
                                'content-top', 'content-bottom',
                                'left', 'top_right'),
                         'content' => array('before', 'after')),

This php file also serve as template installer. There is $data in function install(), and I made it look like this:


$data = array('categories' => array('products/*', 'content-top', '100'),
                    'manufacturers' => array('products/*', 'content-top', '200'),
                    'whats_new' => array('*', 'sidebar-bottom', '300'),
                    'search' => array('*', 'search-box', '300'),
                    'information' => array('*', 'content-bottom', '500'),
                    'shopping_cart' => array('*', 'left', '400'),
                    'manufacturer_info' => array('products/info', 'right', '200'),
                    'order_history' => array('*', 'right', '300'),
                    'test_sellers' => array('*', 'left', '500'),
                    'product_notifications' => array('products/info', 'right', '500'),
                    'tell_a_friend' => array('products/info', 'right', '600'),
                    'specials' => array('*', 'content-top', '700'),
                    'reviews' => array('*', 'left', '800'),
                    'languages' => array('*', 'left', '900'),
                    'currencies' => array('*', 'left', '1000'),
                    'new_products' => array('index/category_listing', 'after', 400),
                    'new_products' => array('index/index', 'after', 400),
                    'upcoming_products' => array('index/index', 'after', 450),
                    'recently_visited' => array('*', 'after', 500),
                    'also_purchased_products' => array('products/info', 'after', 100));

This is a cool feature, the template installer can also define default box's location.

That's it for now.

WordPress 2.8.4: Security Release

2009-09-17T07:13:00.000-07:00

WordPress 2.8.4: Security Release
Posted August 12, 2009 by Matt. Filed under Releases, Security.

Yesterday a vulnerability was discovered: a specially crafted URL could be requested that would allow an attacker to bypass a security check to verify a user requested a password reset. As a result, the first account without a key in the database (usually the admin account) would have its password reset and a new password would be emailed to the account owner. This doesn’t allow remote access, but it is very annoying.

We fixed this problem last night and have been testing the fixes and looking for other problems since then. Version 2.8.4 which fixes all known problems is now available for download and is highly recommended for all users of WordPress.

http://wordpress.org/development/2009/08/2-8-4-security-release/

Note: not really dangerous, I think.

Install custom template

2009-09-14T23:36:00.000-07:00

Now I install a free web 2.0 template which I downloaded from http://freeoscommerce.com/

But before that, I need to delete install directory and make configure.php not writable.

How to install? Just upload the files and activate the template from administration panel. A bug may occur here, but I have solved it.

Begin to try Oscommerce version 3

2009-09-14T21:40:00.000-07:00

I am installing Oscommerce Version 3 Alpha 5 on osc3shop.joesoef.co.cc.

It will be hosted by freehostia, a free hosting and the domain name is provided by co.cc, a free domain name for a year.

It is quite simple. Just upload it and run the installer. However, the files is in a great number. After that, just access the site from web browser. The installer will ask you all the parameters required.

In 5-10 minutes the Oscommerce is ready. Now I have osc3shop.joesoef.co.cc ready to use. I will use it for learning to create custom template.

The next thing is to install additional template.

Oscommerce version 3 bug

2009-09-13T21:02:00.000-07:00

Found bug on Oscommerce version 3.0 alpha 5 :-(

applications/templates/templates.php


case 'save':
$this->_page_contents = 'edit.php';

if ( isset($_POST['subaction']) && ($_POST['subaction'] == 'confirm') ) {
$data = array('configuration' => $_POST['configuration']);

if ( $this->_save($_GET['template'], $data, ( isset($_POST['default']) && ( $_POST['default'] == 'on' ) ? true : false )) ) {
$osC_MessageStack->add($this->_module, $osC_Language->get('ms_success_action_performed'), 'success');
} else {
$osC_MessageStack->add($this->_module, $osC_Language->get('ms_error_action_not_performed'), 'error');
}

I just changed it (I hope this will be solved soon) to:


 case 'save':
            $this->_page_contents = 'edit.php';
            // var_dump ($_POST);

            $data='';
            if ( isset($_POST['subaction']) && ($_POST['subaction'] == 'confirm') ) {
              if (isset($_POST['configuration'])) {
                $data = array('configuration' => $_POST['configuration']);
              }

Bug is already listed in http://svn.oscommerce.com/jira/browse/OSC-142.
The error is this when i set to default any template:

Notice: Undefined index: configuration in .../oscommerce/admin/includes/content/templates.php on line 45
