Before I continue to explain about ASP hosting web I think it’s a good idea as a preface I would introduce the about ASP.Net because on ASP hosting server always related with ASP programming also called ASP.Net. ASP.Net running smoothly on Microsoft Windows as operating system. ASP.Net are a free programming language from Microsoft that use for web programming to developer their web application it’s powerful running on small web or personal web application until large web site application environment, an include free with .NET framework and free visual wed developer.

As additional ASP.Net also combine with Microsoft SQL form when you would build web application database and online to the internet or in WAN/LAN ASP.Net can developed in windows server environment. The new version ASP.Net 2.0 are release and compatible and better work on IIS, IE 7, Windows Server 2008 and MS SQL 2008.

What is ASP Web Hosting

ASP hosting is a server-side scripting environment that uses Active Server Pages (ASP) technology. An ASP web page can be easily identified with. When your web browser sends a request to the web server, web server will call ASP which would process the requested file. ASP hosting provides a platform for Web developers to explore their creativity and design customized web solutions.

Learning ASP Hosting

ASP Hosting refers Active Server Page Web Hosting. This is additional support, such as a hosting company provides. Insertion in the ASP code on your website in HTML format will give you a dynamic feeling. With the ASP, your site can change the following users. This is possible because the ASP code contains a link between your website and database.
ASP works only for the HTML page.

Normally, the user will type and a URL to visit a specific page. If there is a standard HTML page, see what the user will be exactly the same as the web site appear in the web server. But, if the page that embedded in the ASP script, it will not show HTML code, and then the ASP code.

Find the web hosting that provides this is a simple ASP. You need to find a web host that runs on Windows 2000 or higher server. This is because Windows Server 2000 or higher are provides greater reliability and safer for the ASP pages are the components that work with Internet Information Services (IIS).

The Different of PHP and ASP

PHP and ASP both are free programming software but there is some differences about those software basically here the following of them differences.

• PHP running on Linux environment and ASP.Net running on Windows Server Environment.
• connect to mySQL database and ASP.Net connect to MS SQL Server.
• PHP compatible with Mozilla Firefox and ASP.Net compatible with IE (Internet Explorer).
• PHP user Apache as web development server and ASP.Net running IIS (Internet Information System) as Web development Server.

Currently although this has not been perfect some of the features above can be run on a different machine, for example, PHP can running on Windows Server environment using IIS.

Publishing your works is one issue that you should cope. This can enhance the results with a lot of aspects. This might be easy on some people, but this is entirely different with first-time publishers. With being very challenging tasks, we will get through some of the basic things to look out for when starting up your publishing project.

If you need results with your project, a reliable printer comes in the scene, getting them is also another task which can take time quality and ease of service is your concern. From comparing costs, it is vital that they can cater to your specifications as well as expectations. Along the web, there are several credible printing sites which solely offer book and catalog printing, their specialization can be beneficial and then can be more knowledgeable. Here are the guidelines on how to look for a good book printing site.

Let them handle your project. It is best to leave it to the professional printers. Entrusting the publication can be easy; from there you can ask for a sample to check on the quality. The company can always eliminate other cost and will practically share time off on the production phase.

Research on the details on how a publishing project works, this can also make your projects run smoothly. There are numerous guides that can be essential in making sure you get the job done, it won’t take much time to review them.

On the production phase, concentrate on the front page or cover, this will attract more attention than other books. Analyze the information on your book; get a good theme to go along with it.

Contact the printer before finalizing the design, you can always point out some minor details to be augmented, double checking and always keeping a keen eye on typo’s and every detail to be correct. Your specifications must be met from the printing site, with their professional staff; you can create the desired results on your book.

Evaluate the number of copies you need to produce. Maximize them and keep in mind your budget, but there are also advantages on bulk quantities, plan them well especially if you are still new to publishing projects.

Plan all the details well, investing on a good amount of time will pave way to successful production. Efforts are easily wasted if the publishing stage was taken for granted. A well-planned schedule of tasks and quality checking can be your ticket to a good publishing phase.

Always refer to the free rate quote tool; they can be of invaluable use for your project. It can actually be reviewed and would cost lower compared to just going for fixed deals. This can always be available on a credible website. Often, there is a free file review tool to let their professional staff check your work, enhance, and simply get the best out of the publishing phase.

A well thought-out plan can be your best arsenal to combat faulty publishing errors, since the printer can never be liable for any errors that you made making your work, you can always review them beforehand, making sure that everything is right, because once it’s on the production phase, you can never go back and replace them particularly on book printing.

Excecutive Summary about book printing By. Jennifer A

Also check my reviews about permalink wp plugins.

As you perhaps noticed, the theme have a custom archive page and search page where the articles are displayed width a 110 x 80 pixel thumbnail on the left side. Articles are also displayed on the homepage in the same way under the featured content slider. All 3 files (home.php, search.php and archive.php) make use of an external file called excrept.php and it’s located in the includes folder.

Basically it is an “IF” statement what do the following:
IF: there is a custom field called “Thumbnail”
THAN: Show the image from that custom field, re size it to 110 x 80 pixels and link to the article from where it’s belong.
ELSE: If there is no thumbnail image in the custom field show the image called Thumbnail.png from the themes images folder.

The code looks like this (in the excrept.php from includes folder):
<?php if( get_post_meta($post->ID, “Thumbnail”, true) ): ?>
<a class=”thumb” href=”<?php the_permalink() ?>” rel=”bookmark”><img src=”<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, “Thumbnail”, true); ?>” alt=”<?php the_title(); ?>” /></a>
<?php else: ?>
<a class=”thumb” href=”<?php the_permalink() ?>” rel=”bookmark”><img src=”<?php bloginfo(’template_url’); ?>/images/Thumbnail.png” alt=”<?php the_title(); ?>” /></a>
<?php endif; ?>

Bryce asked how to remove or replace the image without adding a custom field. There are some options of what you can do.

Use a single image to all your posts:
Simply replace the Thumbnail.png with your own image and this will be attached to every single article on homepage, search page and archives page.

Remove the “Read More” image if not using thumbnail in custom fields:
Find in excrept.php these lines:
<?php else: ?>
<a class=”thumb” href=”<?php the_permalink() ?>” rel=”bookmark”><img src=”<?php bloginfo(’template_url’); ?>/images/Thumbnail.png” alt=”<?php the_title(); ?>” /></a>
Delete the two lines. In this case if you add a thumbnail to your custom field it will show, if not you will see only the excerpt (part of your post) from your article.

Show the post all content instead of the excrept:
Find the line in excrept.php:
<?php the_excerpt(__(’Read More »’));?>
And replace it with this one:
<?php the_content(__(’Read More »’));?>
I hope this will help you customize better your theme, also check my other article about themes tutorial

In order to use TimeCafe News theme you have to install “limit-post” plugin. To install the plugin upload the limit-post.php (located in “plugins” folder) to where you have installed wordpress in wp-content\plugins folder. After the file is uploaded activate it from plugins menu in your wordpress administration.

Upload the folder called “timecafe_news” to where you have installed wordpress in wp-content\themes folder. Activate the theme from your wordpress administration menu.

Setting up the theme custom options

Once your theme is installed, under Design option (up to wordpress 2.65) or Appearance options (wordpress 2.7 +) it will be auto generated a new menu called “TimeCafe Theme Cpanel”. You can access this menu from your wordpress administration menu or from your website once you are logged in.

After accessing the theme menu you’ll have the following options:

* Featured Slider Category and number of images.

From this option you choose a category from where images will be showed in the front page and how many images will slide. When a site reader will click on these images it will be taken to the post from where the image belongs.

To assign images for the posts in the chosen category, when you write a post you’ll have to go to “Custom Field” and add the key “Slider” (with capital “S”) as the key and put the path to where your image is uploaded (trough wordpress or any other image hosting that offers direct link to the path of your image) as value. These images will slide on your homepage. The images will be automatically resized to 578 x 250 pixels.

* Top Left featured Category and Top Right Featured Category.

Under the featured category slider on your homepage are two boxes one next to each other, where titles are displayed from specific categories. Chose the two categories from where you want to feature the articles and select the number of post that you want to be displayed.

* Homepage Featured Main Area.

In the main area you should chose to feature the most updated category. Here will be showed part of your article and a thumbnail image on the left. Choose the featured category and the number of post you want to be displayed in this area.

To have thumbnails to your posts, when you write your articles go to “Custom Fields” and add the key “Thumbnail” (width capital “T”) and the path to where your image is located as “value”. I recommend adding thumbnail images to each of your posts because they will be displayed on your archives page and on the search page. Thumbnails will be resized to 110 x 80 pixels automatically.

* Video on Homepage Sidebar

You can choose to display video on the homepage sidebar by checking the box where you are asked if you want to do so. Now insert the code for your embed video from your favorite video streaming site. Make sure the video size is 280 x 250 pixels.

* Adding Newsletter from FeedBurer.

Newsletters are recommended to use for keeping your readers updated. This way they will be able to follow up the updates and they come back to your page. FeedBurner.com offer o free service of sending newsletters based on your RSS feeds.

After you have created an account you get a code for newsletter where you have a link in this format: http://feeds.feedburner.com/~e?ffid=xxxxxx where xxxxxx is a number that represent your id. Insert that number (your ID) into the field for having custom newsletter box under each of your article.

* FeedBurner RSS or wordpress RSS.

wordpress generates a RSS feed for users to be able to subscribe to your feed. Since you have a FeedBurner account you might want to use this feed for advanced statistics about your readers. You can use this feed by checking the box where you are asked If use FeedBurner RSS and insert your feed name.

The feed name is the one you chosen and it’s showed after http://feeds.feedburner.com/ insert your feed name into the field without http://feeds.feedburner.com/ and when the site readers will click on the Subscribe to RSS Feed link, they will be redirected to your FeedBurner link.

* Advertisement codes.

You can use whatever type of advertisement codes of 468 x 60 pixels in the header or 300 x 250 pixels in the sidebar. Just insert the codes into the fields.

* Using Counter Codes or Links.

If you are exchange links or use tracking codes, you can use the “Footer Counter or Links” area to put these codes there. Text will be centered under your website footer.

How to use Custom Typography

Examples: http://www.timecafethemes.com/demo/news/typography/

Custom Pages Templates

The archive page, search page and the 404 page (not found page) are using custom designs. If found keywords, the search page and the archives page shows articles compressed (for user not to scroll down to 10th article too much) and thumbnail images are assigned. If keyword in not found in search page and the 404 page show the titles of your pages, categories, archives and the latest posts.

You can also use a page template without sidebar if you want to display data that require more space. For this, when you write a static page, got to page templates and chose “No Sidebar Page”.
