Using WordPress As A Bug Tracker – Quality Control

27 Aug

" alt="Using WordPress As A Bug Tracker – Quality Control" width="490" height="200" class="thumbnail" />

Whether it is a website for a customer, a web application or a software, it is always a good idea to write down the list of bugs.

It simply helps us not to forget any of them and analyze the process better (the time they require, better listing and solving them according to priorities, etc.).

Previously published WRD post: 9 Free And Open Source Bug Tracking Softwares is featuring very handy resources for managing the issues better. And, here is a new one:

Quality Control is a free WordPress theme that functions as a bug or ticket tracking system.

It allows users to submit new requests and track the process on them easily.

The theme places requests under categories, displays them according to their priority and shows the latest activities.

Quality Control calls itself as a “base framework” for bug tracking as it is flexible and open to every improvement.

Cross-Browser HTML5 Form Validation: jQuery.Html5form

25 Aug

" alt="Cross-Browser HTML5 Form Validation: jQuery.Html5form" width="490" height="200" class="thumbnail" />

HTML5 has a built-in validation that doesn't require any JavaScript. However, currently, it only works in Webkit browsers and can't be used in Firefox, Opera or IE.

jQuery.Html5form is a jQuery plugin that adds the lacking HTML5 form validation features to non-compatible browsers.

It doesn't require any custom functions or coding. Just create your form with the HTML5 syntax and it'll execute them automatically.

Optionally, the plugin offers features to help customizing how the errors will be handled like the the error messages, where they'll be displayed, their styles, etc.

And, it works with multiple forms on the same page as well (each of them can be customized differently).

" alt="Reset The Styles & Recreate Them – Toucan CSS Reset" width="490" height="200" class="thumbnail" />

Toucan CSS Reset is a CSS framework that removes the differences of rendered items in different browsers just like Meyer’s or YUI’s reset files.

And also, it rebuilds the new generic rules for the typography, headings, paragraphs, lists, forms, tables etc.

It is a lightweight framework (~2.5kb compressed) and pretty easy to understand its logic + apply your own styles.
