SoDevious is hosted at ASmallOrange, and I thought that I would share some exclusive coupons that I came across. The first is for $5 off any plan. I used this for my first month, which cost $5, so I got the first month free! It was great because I could do a ‘test’ run to see if I liked the company or not. But I did! I’m sure you will too. Here’s the code:

$5 off

The second coupon code is for 15% off any order. Their pricing is organized so that if you buy an annual plan, it’s like getting 2 free months.

15% off

Honestly, I love ASO! The price is great, and the space is more than enough for what I use. ( I have the small plan) When I have problems, these guys are quick to respond. Not to mention that they are an actual company, not little kids trying to sell you stuff. Did I mention that they also support reselling? Fun stuff!

Commenting your Code

When learning how to code in various languages, it often times helps to know the proper way to comment out certain items. If you don’t already know what it means to add a ‘comment’ to the code, it can be little notes for you, or others who are going to read it. They can also be used to block something out, it’s stopping a certain piece of code from it being read by the browser, or whatever have you. It’s also smart to organize your code with comments. For instance, because you can’t add selectors to an ending div class, you can add a comment to let you know which div you’re ending. Lets start, shall we?

HTML

Hints: It’s best to avoid using ‘ – ‘ (the dash) to keep things from getting confusing, and use spaces before/after the dashes.

CSS

/* clear div to fix errors */

Same concept for HTML, adding notes or blocking off code. Can be used inside or in-between elements.

PHP

/* WP Post (many lines)*/

// Start the loop (1 line)

There are two kinds of comments you can use in PHP, the ‘/* */’ being for multiple lines of code, and ‘//’ for one line.

I hope that you learned something new! Enjoy!
