So your trying to upload a large image or pdf to your WordPress site and have gotten the above error(xxxxxx exceeds the maximum upload size for this site, Maximum upload file size: 2 MB). If you own your own server or virtual server you can make the adjustment in the admin panel.  In WHM this is under PHP Configuration Editor.  Keep in mind adjusting this setting will effect all sites on your server. If you host multiple sites on your server and you want to choose which site can upload larger files or don’t have access to the server...

Most of us have a customer service horror story that we can describe in vivid detail. This experience stays with us and forever alters the relationship we have or had with the offending company. Taking your customers for granted seems to be the overall offending attitude.  If this attitude is not addressed and allowed to spread throughout an organization it can leave a sizable dent in the reputation the company. You might think the size of the company is a solid determiner of how well they treat their customers. This is not always the...

In full disclosure this is Theresa’s dish, I just really enjoy eating it!  That’s not to say she doesn’t recruit me to grate the zucchini’s, butter the pans or position the shelves in the oven mid-bake for the “perfect” finish.  The original recipe called for 2 cups sugar but we cut that in half.  We also add chocolate chips 9 out of ten times:) Another secret is freezing the bread(wrapped in aluminum foil). This keeps it good for as long as you can resist eating it! I think it tastes best this...

I ran across this easy solution for adding blank rows to existing data in excel.  Using the mouse and using the “insert”  function can be monotonous and time consuming for large spreadsheets. This solution is fast, easy and you can add as many blank rows as you need. Insert new column on left side. Title it “sort”.  Create a series in this column from the first row down to the end of the data: 1,3,5,etc. Then below that, create a series 2,4,6 etc down to the lowest number before the end of the 1st series. Then select...

Add code to the header of any page in your Magento store by following the simple instructions below. Being able to add code to a single page of a Magento store(product page, CMS page or category page) and only that page is a requirement for Google Experiments, affiliate programs, custom tracking, and more. This is also useful for calling needed scripts for design/functionality(image sliders, gallery effects, ect) that are only needed on a single page. The below solution uses the already highly functional widget and block combination of...

Managing successful email campaigns requires diligent contact list management. By taking the time to weed out bad contacts you will increase your click through rate, open rate, conversion rate and the effectiveness of your sends. Just about any email service (Constant Contact, Exact Target, MailChimp, ect) allows, encourages even, contacts to opt-out or report as spam any email they classify as so.   This action places them on a do-not-mail list.  Contacts are filtered through this list and removed upon import.  Once a contact is placed on...

My mother-in-law asked me to help her clean up with a unwanted pop-up that kept appearing on her windows machine. I thought this was a good time to put together a list of online tools to clean up a PC. The first step I would have taken if it was my PC would have deleting all unwanted programs, desktop icons, and programs running in the system tray. Being that this wasn’t my system I skipped this step. The first thing I did was download and run CC Cleaner This program gets rid of all the bloat and files accumulated during normal...
