sample script to create a Magento admin user through phpMyAdmin, use php to generate an MD5 hash of your password:

INSERT INTO admin_user SELECT NULL user_id, "TCS" firstname, "Admin" lastname, "[email protected]" email, "admintcs" username, "f26bcb835dc92bcc5dede282752a608e:at" password, NOW( ) created, NULL modified, NULL logdate, 0 lognum, 0 reload_acl_flag, 1 is_active, (SELECT MAX(extra) FROM admin_user WHERE extra IS NOT NULL) extra, NULL rp_token, NOW() rp_token_created_at;

These 2 php loops will grab the information of simple products contained within a configurable product, use it on your product view page or list page:

<?php if($_product->getTypeId() == "configurable"):    $conf = Mage::getModel('catalog/product_type_configurable')->setProduct($_product);    $simple_collection = $conf->getUsedProductCollection()->addAttributeToSelect('*')->addFilterByRequiredOptions();    foreach($simple_collection as $simple_product){        echo $simple_product->getSku() . " - " . $simple_product->getName() . " - " . Mage::helper('core')->currency($simple_product->getPrice()) . "<br>";    } endif; ?>

This is a quick and simple way to make the first drop down option selected by default on a configurable magento product.

add here:

/template/catalog/product/view/options.phtml

Event.observe(window, 'load', function() { $$('.product-options select').each(function(element) { element.selectedIndex = 1; opConfig.reloadPrice(); }); });

Here are a couple of functions to get the add to cart url for a product in magento:

<?php echo $this->getAddToCartUrl($_product)?>

Depending on where you are calling the above function from, sometimes I found that it doesn't work, in which case we sue a Mgae::helper:

This simple loop allows you to get category info on product view page, it will return all categories that belong to current product. You can modify it to get any category data attributes. Also i changed the line Mage::getModel to Mage::getSingleton to save resources.

I needed to implement this on a magento site, I added this line to the .htaccess file:

If you want to drop index.php from ALL links on your site, this solution actually worked the best for me:

RedirectMatch 301 /index.php/(.*) http://www.yourdomain.com/$1

Here is another one, this one I didn't test:

To exclude the admin area, you must insert an additional RewriteCond before the first rule

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/admin/

All together gives
