• WooCommerce Dynamic Product Category Slug based on Country Code

  Is there a way to write a custom code to create different versions of the product category URL, based on the user visited country, handling what is the country code is an easy part however I want to have a dynamic URL based on detected country code.

  for example

  https://website.com/uk/category1

  https://website.com/us/category1

  https://website.com/fr/category1

  this will be for the same product category, all I need is to have a dynamic product category prefix based on this dynamic variable from the visitor session (country code)
• bref.sh php container for AWS Lambda with Neos CMS

  I'm struggling to get Neos (a php based cms) to run in a docker container for AWS Lambda. I guess I have somewhere a misunderstanding and hope anyone can help.

  What I did so far:

  1. I adjusted Neos so that all cache files will be written to the tmp folder
  2. I added the bref and extra-php-extensions package to composer.json
  3. I created a docker file, quite simple as shown by Mattheu Naploli's blog article: https://mnapoli.fr/aws-lambda-php-docker-containers/
  4. I have created a cloudformation template to use sam local start-api

  Dockerfile:

  FROM bref/php-74-fpm
  
  COPY . /var/task
  
  # Start Bref's runtime client
  CMD _HANDLER=Web/index.php /opt/bootstrap

  What I don't understand, I'd expect that there is always a valid json returned, even though the php delivers a 5xx error. I'm lost ... even though this wouldn't be the case, how can I debug the issue?

  In the end, I have to create my own docker image as Neos is too big to use the bref layers and I need quite some php extensions. If I could understand the current issue, I can work through this and provide a working container for everyone.

  I have a few more questions, in this scenario, were I have a web application and use a container, do I have to install the bref packages with composer? That wasn't clear in the blog post. Also do I have to set the Handler in serverless/sam and if so, which would be the correct string, given that Web/index.php is the path in Neos?

  In general, Neos would work awesome in AWS. My setup would be:

  1. CloudFront with behaviors for static files from S3 and everything else to lambda
  2. Redis to store cache files from Neos
  3. ElasticSearch for website search and improved performance on huge sites

  As soon as this is working, I'll publish all information for free for the Neos community to get this working.

  Hope someone can help...

  Thank you!

• Change base URL of Yoast Sitemap

• Wordpress Theme Editor file permissions

  At some point I lost the ability to edit my theme files through the WP theme editor because the file is supposedly not writeable (is_writable() returns false). When accessing it, the following message is displayed:

  You need to make this file writable before you can save your changes. See Changing File Permissions for more information.

  My site is running on my own CentOS 7 server, and I have made sure all the recommended settings for file permissions are in place:

  • Files and folders under /var/www/ are owned by apache:apache

  • All files permissions are set to 644, and folders to 755

  • DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT is not defined

• c++ how does copy constructor works

  So I have following code:

  struct obj {
    static int c;
    int myc;
    obj() : myc(c++) {
      std::cout << "ctor of " << myc << '\n';
    }
    obj(const obj&) : myc(c++){
      std::cout << "copy ctor of " << myc << '\n';
    }
    ~obj() {

    }
  };
  int obj::c = 1;
  
  int main(int argc, char** argv)
  {
    obj x = obj();
  }
  

  The output is:

  ctor of 1
  dtor of 1
  

  However when I set the copy constructor to private my code fails. Can You explain me please why I never see the std::cout from copy constructor?
• Why is a (final) local variable declared when using an instance variable in Java?

  Consider this code I found from the LinkedList class in the JDK.

  public E getLast() {
      final Node<E> l = last;
      if (l == null)
          throw new NoSuchElementException();
      return l.item;
  }
  

  First question: Why is this seemingly redundant local variable l declared in this code? From what I see, we could've simply used last instead.

  ---

  In the next code from the HashMap class, the same thing is done. The local variable tab is declared to be to equal to the instance variable table.

  Second question: Why is final not used here with tab like it was used in the previous code?

  final Node<K,V> getNode(int hash, Object key) {
      Node<K,V>[] tab; Node<K,V> first, e; int n; K k;
      if ((tab = table) != null && (n = tab.length) > 0 &&
          (first = tab[(n - 1) & hash]) != null) {
          if (first.hash == hash && // always check first node
              ((k = first.key) == key || (key != null && key.equals(k))))
              return first;
          if ((e = first.next) != null) {
              if (first instanceof TreeNode)
                  return ((TreeNode<K,V>)first).getTreeNode(hash, key);
              do {
                  if (e.hash == hash &&
                      ((k = e.key) == key || (key != null && key.equals(k))))
                      return e;
              } while ((e = e.next) != null);
          }
      }
      return null;

• Reference to Player::player without declare?

  I'm using a framework, I read another questions similar to this one but I don't find the solution. I did the Player class in world.cpp and world.h

  #include "framework.h"
  #include "includes.h"
  #include "utils.h"

      Player();
      Player(Vector2 pos, Image sprite);
  
      Image getSprite(){ return sprite; }
  };

      this->pos = pos;
    this->sprite = sprite;
    this->isControlled = true;
  }
  

  And I trying to pass it in to Game.cpp

  #include "utils.h"
  #include "input.h"
  #include "image.h"
  #include "world.h"
  #include <cmath>
  
  Game* Game::instance = NULL;
  
  Image font;
  Image minifont;
  Image player_sprite;
  Player hezurdur;
  Color bgcolor(130, 80, 100);
  

  But then I get this error saying that Player::player() is not defined which I don't understand. /usr/bin/ld: CMakeFiles/TJE.dir/src/game.cpp.o: en la función `__static_initialization_and_destruction_0(int, int)': game.cpp:(.text+0x851): referencia a `Player::Player()' sin definir (this translates as reference to Player::player() without define.
