Magento and Authorize.net CIM – Perfect Together

---

Well, we all know Magento is the best e-commerce platform around. And Authorize.net has to be the most popular payment gateway around. So it came as a real surprise that there’s no support in Magento for the (not so new) service from Authorize.net called CIM (Customer Information Manager) that lets you save customer [...]

Using console.log in Later Versions of Magento Under Chrome

---

Later versions of Magento have added javascript code to /js/varien/js.js to “stub out” the console if it’s not available. This is no doubt to prevent a javascript crash if errant console.log statements get left in throughout the project. The problem is, it prevents console.log from working in Chrome – which I increasingly use [...]

Magento Caching

---

Magento uses caching extensively. If you also want to be able to save something to cache rather than reading from the database or some more expense resource like that, it’s simple: dollarsignrvalue = Mage::app()->loadCache(‘my_cache_key’); If the key isn’t found, dollarsignrvalue will be null. To store a value in the cache is almost as easy: Mage::app()->saveCache(dollarsignrdata_to_store, ‘my_cache_key’, array(), dollarsignrduration_in_seconds); (The [...]

Loading Blocks

---

Sometimes I’m banging my head against the wall trying to figure out why my block isn’t loading right or some other layout element isn’t rendering.  And I’ve always wished I could just see the layout as Magento is seeing it.  So I finally dug in to see and it’s actually incredibly simple to output the [...]

Logging Database Queries in Magento

---

Getting the Text Value of a Category Attribute of Type Select

---

As shown elsewhere, you can add an attribute to the category entity in Magento.  If the attribute is of type select, getting the text value of an option is a bit of a pain: dollarsignrcategory = Mage::getModel(‘catalog/category’)->load(10); dollarsignrattribute = Mage::getSingleton(‘eav/config’)->getAttribute(‘catalog_category’, ‘myattribute_code’); dollarsignrtext = dollarsignrattribute->getSource()->getOptionText(dollarsignrcategory->getMyattributeCode());

RIP Water Cooler

---

It was a sad morning here at iFuel Interactive. We got into the office today, and noticed that out beloved water cooler was making an odd noise. Rick went to go get some water for the coffee pot, and noticed that the entire machine was very hot, and water that was being dispensed out was boiling hot [...]

Best. YouTube. Video. Ever.

---

The holiday season is in full swing, and I’m slowly getting into the spirit of things. I listen to my holiday radio station on Pandora, and changed my desktop wallpaper to that of various festive winter scenes. Plus, I just bought a lovely dress to wear to my holiday parties, and I’m almost done with all my [...]
