Improving Our Development Process »
We have some really big news to anounce shortly, but we are waiting for a few other key things to come in to play before we make the announcement. Until then, I thought I would provide a post about some improvements I have been making to the development process here at Peacock Carter.
Selling Online with Drupal e-Commerce »
I’m pleased to announce my second book is now available for pre-order! Selling Online with Drupal e-Commerce guides you through setting up an online store using Drupal’s e-Commerce module, while discussing various ecommerce concepts along the way. www.packtpub.com/drupal-ecommerce/book.
We offer ecommerce and online shop development if you'd rather we did the hard work.
PHP 4 Support »
We are officially dropping support for PHP 4 in our products. This is something we have wanted to do for some time, however one of our larger websites runs in a controlled hosting environment for various reasons, which had to run PHP 4, this has now been upgraded to PHP 5, and so we can officially drop support for PHP 4.
Book: Mobile Web Development by Nirav Metha »
Packt Publishing have recently published a new book, Mobile Web Development by Nirav Metha. I was asked to be one of the technical reviewers for this book, and I have to say I was quite impressed.
Pointless Redesign Holding Pages »
I was doing some searching on the web just now and came across a web designer's website, which was busy putting up a new site. The irony was that it was to create a new design to show how well they had “grown up”. It can sometimes be appropriate to use such a holding page over a few hour period when you upload or apply a new website or changes, to prevent visitors from seeing errors relating to the changes…but during the creation phase, I think it’s pointless!
Why No Updates? »
Wondering why we have not updated the blog in nearly a month? Think we must have nothing to say or do? Well, you would be wrong if you thought that. We have been really busy at Peacock Carter, mostly in preperation for an exciting event happening in March - stay tuned!
Someone Cares featured on ITV Tyne Tees »
Someone Cares, one of our clients, was featured on ITV Tyne Tees News tonight.
Toucan CMS™ version 1 »
I’m pleased to announce that version 1 of Toucan CMS™ is complete and ready for use (although a more basic version has been in use on a number of our client websites for some time). Although Toucan as a system has been in use on most of our websites for some time, only now is the interface polished enough to allow our clients to effectively edit, manage and control their websites content.
