By the way, that is not the purpose of this post. After upgrading, I headed to the admin Dashboard and click on the Update link located at the left nearly bottom. It says that I had the latest version of WordPress. That is as usual. However, I found that there are three new buttons: Re-install Automatically, Download and Hide this update. That is great, especially for the Re-install Automatically function. However, it is does not work yet. At least, by the time I wrote this post.

Those WordPress guys are working hard in order to make WordPress great software. Hopefully, the release of WordPress 2.7 would solve the problem of re-installing corrupted WordPress, for what ever reason.

There are four synchronization mode for Toucan: copy, update, mirror (copy/update) and equalize.

As for the backup function, Toucan supports complete, update and differential type. The backup file can be in the format of zip or the smaller size 7-zip.

The third feature of Toucan, secure data, use AES-256 encryption via ccrypt. AES is one of the most popular algorithm used in symmetric key cryptography. AES is fast and also require less memory.

As a conclusion, Toucan is not only a good and simple tool for backup and synchronization tasks, but can also encrypt important files and folders.

If you have any other suggestions, please don’t hesitate to leave a comment.

Example 1:

272 ÷ 16 = 17

1. Find the factors of the divisor. Choose one of the factors.
   16 = 4 × 4 or 16 = 8 × 2
   For example, I will use 8 × 2
2. Divide the dividend by one of the factor.
   272 ÷ 8 = 34
3. Divide the quotient from 2. by the second factor.
   34 ÷ 2 = 17
4. Therefore, the quotient is 17

Note: Try with 4 × 4.

What will happened if the remainder is not zero? Please look at the next example.

Example 2:

275 ÷ 16 = 17 with remainder 3

1. 16 = 4 × 4
2. 275 ÷ 4 = 68, r. 3
3. 68 ÷ 4 = 17
4. The quotient is 17, with remainder 3

Note: Try with 2 × 8

First, you will need a sample theme. Create a new folder in wp-content\themes. Name it ‘test’ (or, whatever you like). Create three files in the ‘test’ folder: index.php, style.css and functions.php. Now, you should choose the ‘test’ theme as the current theme.

Second, open the functions.php file in your favourite text editor, and paste the following php code.

<?php
add_action('admin_menu', 'add_welcome_interface');
 
function add_welcome_interface() {
/* add_theme_page( page_title, menu_title, access_level/capability, file, [function]); */
add_theme_page('Your Theme Name', 'Your Theme Options', 'edit_themes', basename(__FILE__), 'editoptions');
}
 
function editoptions() {
?>
 
<div class="wrap">
  <h2>Your Theme Name</h2>
  <form action="options.php" method="post">
  <?php wp_nonce_field('update-options'); ?>
 
  <table class="form-table">
  <tbody>
  <tr valign="top">
  <th scope="row">First Option</th>
  <td><input value="<?php echo get_option('first_option'); ?>;" name="first_option"></td>
  </tr>
  <tr valign="top">
  <th scope="row">Second Option</th>
  <td><input value=<?php echo get_option('second_option'); ?>" name="second_option"></td>
  </tr> </tbody></table>
 
  <input type="hidden" value="update" name="action">
  input type="hidden" value="first_option,second_option" name="page_options">
  <p class="submit"> <input type="submit" value="<?php _e('Save Changes') ?>" name="Submit"></p>
  </form>
</div> 
 
<?php } ?>

Finally, you can call the options that you save in index.php file, using the get_option() function.

<?php
echo get_option('first_option');
echo get_option('second_option');

Example 1:

43 ÷ 9 = 4, remainder = 7

quick remainder: 4 + 3 = 7

Example 2:

28 ÷ 9 = 3, remainder = 1

quick remainder: 2 + 8 = 10 ?

If the addition is ? 9, cast out the 9s, until it is lest than 9.

10 – 9 = 1

Example 3:

2345 ÷ 9 = 260, remainder = 5

quick remainder: 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 14

14 – 9 = 5

Example 4:

4489 ÷ 9 = 498, remainder = 7

quick remainder: 4 + 4 + 8 + 9 = 25

25 – 9 = 16

16 – 9 = 7
