Hello there, another wp plugin from me . I was thinking to be a Freelancer.com affiliate (previous GetAFreelancer) and  looking for some wordpress widget as I want to show the links in my blog sidebar. I found a plugin built by Masnun bro, but it gets related projects from freelancer.com according to your post and shows below of your post . So i thought, why i don’t I built one before anyone creates before me? . So here is the plugin screenshot:

So i don’t need to describe what to do after installing the plugin, right? It’ll show the selected links to your sidebar like this:

So why don’t you add this plugin to your blog and make some money?

Showing links in every post

Requesting bug report

Just wrote an another punBB plugin for Projanmo Forum.

In normal uses, everyone sign’s in with username and password. But for a special purpose, i needed to login with user ID and password. Because, when the username is in a complex script language like Bangla and you want to login from the mobile and you don’t have Bangla writing system in your mobile, this feature comes in action.

This extension is written for mobile users actually. When you will visit the forum from mobile, you will be redirected to the login screen containing user ID and password.

Enjoy!!!

I have worked with Bangla date a long time ago. The first initiative was to make a extension for forum engine punBB. After that, i made a javascript widget to display Bangla date in any site. The third initiative was to make a facebook application that shows current Bangla date to your facebook profile.

I always wanted to publish this as a PHP Class but never got that chance to do so. After a long time i worked with Bangla date today and finally created a PHP Class to use it anywhere by anyone. Sorry for the late.

Usage:

<?php
include_once 'class.banglaDate.php';
$bn_date = new BanglaDate(time());
$date = $bn_date->get_date();
?>

You will get an array of converted date in Bangla.

A few things needed to know. Bangla date counted or changes after the sun rise. That means, where English date changes at 12′O clock at the night, Bangla date changes at the morning after the sunrise.

Class Constructor:
This class constructor has 2 parameters. The first one in timestamp and the second one is the hour of changing the date. If you want to change the Bangla date like English at 12’0 clock at the night, you should use $bn_date = new BanglaDate(time(), 0). But if you want to change the date at 6′O clock at the morning, use as $bn_date = new BanglaDate(time(), 6). If you don’t pass the second parameter, the default value is 6. Use as you like.

After Creating the class object, you can set another date using set_time() like $bn_date->set_time(time(), 4);

Here’s how you can get your google buzz status with php. Just put your google username at the right place and do whatever you want.
We have used simpleXML to parse the google’s RSS feed for every user.

<?php
$user = "<username>";
$url = "http://buzz.googleapis.com/feeds/".$user."/public/posted";
$data = file_get_contents($url);
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($data);

$status = $xml->entry[0]->summary;
$time = date('D j M Y g:i a', strtotime($xml->entry[0]->published));
echo "Status: $status <br />";
echo "Time: $time";

As a part of BASIS’s “IT Innovation Project”, 17 project was submitted for BASIS Softexpo 2010. Among of them, only 3 projects were selected. They were -

• 1. Braille Board
• 2. Bangla Text to Speech (TTS)
• 3. Bangla OCR

Both, Braille Board and Bangla TTS was awarded for “Best IT Innovation Award”.

About Our Project:

Title: Design and Development of PC Controlled Dynamic Braille Board.

Project Description:
Braille is a primary medium of reading and writing for people who are blind or have low vision. Although blind or visually impaired individuals are able to access print materials by using audio books or listening to a personal reader and can write by dictating to someone, many find that they can access information more quickly and perform tasks that involve reading or writing more efficiently using Braille.

Many days ago i built two image signature as my forum signature. One of the signature shows the latest post from my blog and another shows my latest twitter update. I was inspired to do that signature by seeing Shiplu Vai’s signature. Originally he was using them and i copied the concept

Anyway, here is my latest blog post signature and here is my twitter signature

I will show you the process to create your own twitter image signature like me.

1. At first we will get the latest twitter update by this

<?php
$username = "tareq_cse"; //Twitter Username
$url = "http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/$username.json?count=1"; //json request url
$json = json_decode(file_get_contents($url));
$status = $json[0]->text; //get the status from array/object

2. Now we will get the time distance from now and the twitted time and will format it

বাংলা তারিখ নিয়ে প্রথমে কাজ করেছিলাম প্রজন্ম ফোরামের জন্যে। সেখানে হেডারে প্রতিদিনের বাংলা তারিখ দেখানো হয়। এরপর করলাম একটা জাভাস্ক্রিপ্ট উইজেট, যেটা দিয়ে আপনি আপনার যেকোন সাইটে বাংলা তারিখ যুক্ত করতে পারেন। অনেকদিন ধরেই চিন্তা করছিলাম ফেসবুকের জন্যে একটা অ্যাপ্লিকেশন বানালে মন্দ হয় না, কিন্তু সময় আর করে উঠতে পারিনি।

ফেসবুকে বাংলা তারিখ

এই অ্যাপ্লিকেশন দিয়ে আপনি আপনার ফেসবুকের প্রোফাইলে আজকের বাংলা তারিখটি দেখাতে পারবেন। অ্যাপ্লিকেশনটি রয়েছে এখানে http://apps.facebook.com/bangladate/

What is Google Transliterate?

Google offers an automatic transliteration option that converts Roman characters to the characters used in Arabic, Bengali, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Nepali, Punjabi, Tamil, Telugu and Urdu. This feature lets you type these languages phonetically in English letters, but they’ll appear in their correct alphabet. Keep in mind that transliteration is different from translation; the sound of the words is converted from one alphabet to the other, not the meaning.

What I did?
I did a integration of Google Transliterate with WordPress & punBB. My plugin allows you to write phonetically with the help of Google Transliteration in the WordPress post editor and also in punBB post box. This will not work in rich text editor mode in wordpress, you need to switch on HTML mode.

How does it work?
The bellow images tells you everything

• You can select your desired language from the list



• After Selecting the language, active the google transliteration option by clicking the text.



• Type the words phonetically. Once you type a space or a punctuation mark, the letters will be converted to corresponding language characters, like this:



• If you need to correct a transliterated word, click the word; you’ll see a menu of alternate spellings, in addition to an option to switch back to the Roman characters you typed. If you type the same word again, it will then be transliterated correctly based on your saved preference.
