by

To check whether the request is coming from mobile, tablet or desktop.

function detectDevice() {
	$tablet_browser = 0;
	$mobile_browser = 0;
	
	if (preg_match('/(tablet|ipad|playbook)|(android(?!.*(mobi|opera mini)))/i', strtolower($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']))) {
		$tablet_browser++;
	}
	
	if (preg_match('/(up.browser|up.link|mmp|symbian|smartphone|midp|wap|phone|android|iemobile)/i', strtolower($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']))) {
		$mobile_browser++;
	}
	
	if ((strpos(strtolower($_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT']),'application/vnd.wap.xhtml+xml') > 0) or ((isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_WAP_PROFILE']) or isset($_SERVER['HTTP_PROFILE'])))) {
		$mobile_browser++;
	}
	
	$mobile_ua = strtolower(substr($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 0, 4));
	$mobile_agents = array(
		'w3c ','acs-','alav','alca','amoi','audi','avan','benq','bird','blac',
		'blaz','brew','cell','cldc','cmd-','dang','doco','eric','hipt','inno',
		'ipaq','java','jigs','kddi','keji','leno','lg-c','lg-d','lg-g','lge-',

		'wapr','webc','winw','winw','xda ','xda-');
	 
	if (in_array($mobile_ua,$mobile_agents)) {
		$mobile_browser++;
	}

	if (strpos(strtolower($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']),'opera mini') > 0) {
		$mobile_browser++;
		//Check for tablets on opera mini alternative headers
		$stock_ua = strtolower(isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_OPERAMINI_PHONE_UA']) ? $_SERVER['HTTP_X_OPERAMINI_PHONE_UA'] : (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_DEVICE_STOCK_UA']) ? $_SERVER['HTTP_DEVICE_STOCK_UA'] : ''));
		if (preg_match('/(tablet|ipad|playbook)|(android(?!.*mobile))/i', $stock_ua)) {
			$tablet_browser++;
		}
	}
	 
	if ($tablet_browser > 0) {
	   $device = 'tablet';
	} else if ($mobile_browser > 0) {
	   $device = 'mobile';
	} else {
	   $device = 'desktop';
	}
	return $device;
}

Now call this function wherever you need it.

echo detectDevice();

Add Magento Admin User Using MySQL Script

by

How to add Magento Admin User Using MySQL Script ?

Here is the very simple answer to this question. This script quickly adds a Magento Admin user directly into the database. It is possible to run this script from the command line or by copying and pasting into phpMyAdmin. Most of these fields are trivial, I’m just listing them so you don’t miss anything.

  1. Set the salt portion of your password. You’ll rarely need to change this. If you do, just use two lower case letters of your choice.
  2. Set your password. At least 8 characters in length and at least one digit.
  3. Firstname: Enter admin’s first name.
  4. Lastname: Enter admin’s last name.
  5. Enter email of admin user.
  6. Enter username where ‘myuser’ is set. Notice ‘myuser’ shows up in two places.
  7. Enter Firstname again. This is more symbolic to label the rule.
LOCK TABLES `admin_role` WRITE , `admin_user` WRITE;
 
SET @SALT = "sid";
SET @PASS = CONCAT(MD5(CONCAT( @SALT , "password") ), CONCAT(":", @SALT ));
SELECT @EXTRA := MAX(extra) FROM admin_user WHERE extra IS NOT NULL;
 
INSERT INTO `admin_user` (firstname,lastname,email,username,password,created,lognum,reload_acl_flag,is_active,extra) 
VALUES ('Firstname','Lastname','email@example.com','myuser',@PASS,NOW(),0,0,1,@EXTRA);
 
INSERT INTO `admin_role` (parent_id,tree_level,sort_order,role_type,user_id,role_name) 
VALUES (1,2,0,'U',(SELECT user_id FROM admin_user WHERE username = 'myuser'),'Firstname');
 
UNLOCK TABLES;

And you’re done. Now you can login to your admin.. 🙂

Remaining Characters Counter

by

To find out how many characters remaining in input box or textarea when user type, like we see in Twitter or Delicious and other sites as well.

twiiter-character-counter

Add this code in your input box or textarea.

onfocus="characterCount(250, this.id, 'whyMeCount');"  and  maxlength="250"

where,
250 is the number of characters you what the box should take. You can change it as per your need.
whyMeCount is the id (#whyMeCount) of the html element where you want to display the count
and, whyMe id the id of the element on which we need to count characters on.

Example: 
<textarea id="whyMe" onfocus="characterCount(250, this.id, 'whyMeCount');" maxlength="250"></textarea>
<div id="whyMeCount"></div>

Now, add this JavaScript function in your script tag

function characterCount( text_max, boxId, countId ){
	var text_length = $( '#' + boxId ).val().length;
	if(text_length > 0) {
		$( '#' + countId ).html((text_max-text_length) + ' characters remaining');
	} else {
		$( '#' + countId ).html(text_max + ' characters remaining');
	}
	
	$( '#' + boxId ).on('keyup blur', function() {
		text_length = $( '#' + boxId ).val().length;
		var text_remaining = text_max - text_length;
		$( '#' + countId ).html(text_remaining + ' characters remaining');
	});
}
