Using WP-Ecommerce Product Downloads without checking out

Posted on February 23, 2011

I've used WP-Ecommerce for a few clients who required an online catalogue, rather than an online store.

One client required a  custom product display and wanted to print out the product downloads in the single_product.php file. Apparently its not possible as we're using Product Downloads for something other than what it was designed for.

It was originally designed for electronic products, you add to basket, pay and you can download the product downloads.

Site Performance Quick Fixes

Posted on July 31, 2008

I've been playing around with YSlow for a while now, now I decided to a quick test on this blog.

This blog, according to YSlow rates a frumpy Grade D, with a score of 61. Not bad, but not great.
A bit of .htaccess trickery should give me a few extra points... Excellent Grade C, with a score of 73.
