It’s September already, Advance Merry Christmas! I’d be hearing Christmas songs again.

Anyway, we went to Nueva Ecija few weeks ago to attend Luke’s (Sean’s cousin) 5th birthday.  That’s when I tweeted about eating a lot of yummy lechon.

Watched a 3D movie for the first time last Sept. 1, I bet you know what movie. It’s wickedly awesome! I want to see it again. If I can only afford to watch movies in 3D everytime. But it’s quite expensive! Will post about the movie experience  some other time.

Attended the 6th birthday party of Sean’s classmate in Nursery.  Some of my co-parents said… “pumayat ka…” weeeh!

I’m contemplating if we should pursue our HongKong vacation this November because of that major major hostage issue. Hay naku, parang I’ve lost interest. Oh well, bahala na.

Wants to attend Wordcamp Philippines on October 2, to meet fellow bloggers and to see The Matt Mulenweg in person, but was too late to register. Better luck next time.

A beautiful, melancholy song about Saying Goodbye, so full of emotions.

Di Lang Ikaw
Juris Fernandez

Pansin mo ba ang pagbabago
Di matitigan ang iyong mga mata
Tila di na nananabik sa iyong yakap at halik

Sana’y malaman mo hindi sinasadya
Kung ang nais ko ay maging malaya

Refrain:
Di lang ikaw
Di lang ikaw ang nahihirapan
Damdamin ko rin ay naguguluhan

Di lang ikaw
Di lang ikaw ang nababahala
Bulong ng isip wag kang pakawalan
Ngunit puso ko ay kailangan kang iwan

Pansin mo ba at nararamdaman
Di na na tayo magkaintindihan
Tila di na maibabalik tamis ng yakap at halik

Maaring tama ka lumalamig ang pagsinta
Sana’y malaman mong di ko sinasadya

Repeat Refrain

Bridge:
Di hahayaan habang buhay kang saktan
Di sasayangin ang iyong panahon
Ikaw ay magiging masaya sa yakap at sa piling ng iba.

Repeat Refrain

Finding a way to move the comments to their “rightful owner” or to the right post, I found a useful  WordPress Tip: Move A Comment From A Post To Another article from Deluxe Blog Tips.

Requirements

To be able to move the comments you need to know these 3 things first:

• comment’s ID -  the ID of the comment you want to transfer
• source post’s ID - the ID of the post where the comment will be removed
• destination post’s ID – the ID of the post where the comment will be moved/transferred

To know the comment’s ID and the source post’s ID, go to the Edit Comments Page in your Admin Area and hover the mouse on the Approve/Unapproved link in the comments column. You will see the URL in the status bar. However if you’re using Chrome like me, you may not be able to see the full URL, so just right-click and copy the link address and paste it somewhere else, in a blank tab, notepad, etc.

You will see a link similar to this:

http://www.yourdomain.com/wp-admin/comment.php?action=unapprovecomment&p=171&c=12525&_wpnonce=01bb47e1ad

The comment’s ID is 12525 and the source post’s ID is 17, as indicated in p=171 and c=12525.

To know the destination post’s ID, go to the Edit Posts Page and move the mouse over the Post Title. You will see the URL in the status bar that is similar to this link:

http://www.yourdomain.com/wp-admin/post.php?action=edit&post=15

Now we know that the destination post’s ID is 15, as seen from post=15.

Moving the comment using SQL

“I like to move it move it”

To move the comments you have to login to your site’s Control Panel and go to PHPMyAdmin to work with MySQL query. Although this is an easy task,  use phpMyAdmin at your own risk. Be sure to backup your database too, to be on the safe side.

Choose your WordPress database, and click on the SQL tab.

Now, we’re going to use these SQL snippets

UPDATE wp_comments SET comment_post_ID=destination's post ID WHERE comment_ID=comment's ID;
UPDATE wp_posts SET comment_count=comment_count+1 WHERE ID=destination's post ID;
UPDATE wp_posts SET comment_count=comment_count-1 WHERE ID=source post's ID;

Type the following queries in the SQL tab and press Go, but be sure to replace it with your own comment and post IDs.

UPDATE wp_comments SET comment_post_ID=15 WHERE comment_ID=12570;
UPDATE wp_posts SET comment_count=comment_count+1 WHERE ID=15;
UPDATE wp_posts SET comment_count=comment_count-1 WHERE ID=171;

WordPress will not automatically fix the comment count that’s why we have to add 1 to the destination post and delete one from the source post.

If your WordPress Database Table prefix  is not wp_,  (such as  wp_comments and wp_posts), replace wp_ with the prefix you're using.

If you did as instructed above, you will see this message:

Refresh the Comments Page and you will see that the comment has been moved to the other post.

I try not to use plugin if I can do it myself, but for those who prefer to use a plugin you can use

Move WordPress Comments Plugin

This plugin allows you to move comments  to a different page and to fix comment threading.

On the first day, they were given the chance to slice vegetables, saute garlic and onions (with some help from the parents of course).   On the second day, they wore headdress with Go Grow and Glow foods. They also performed 2 dance numbers during the Nutrition Program after the parade. Here are some of their pics.

On the other hand, Barbie dress up games is now starting to dominate, or let’s say, populate the online world. Barbie arcade games websites pop here and there from time to time. But only few of them stand the test of time.

Some Barbie dress up games web page seems to only last for few months or a year. The reason behind it is simple; there is no one visiting or playing the games they offer. Maybe, it’s the design, the site architecture or the game itself.

A good Barbie games website should offer a very unique, fun, exciting and educational dress up games. This web page always and will always last for a long time. They will receive more and more players and visitors not to mention the refferals they can have. At the gaming side, a good Barbie dress up games web page should have a very basic and clear playing instruction. They should always remember, that their main players are young kids and teens so they should design their game how-to’s at this age level.

Playing Barbie dress up games is not only for pure fun and entertainment, it can be educational as well. Players’ creative and artistic mind will be enhanced and practiced while playing this game. They will have to choose the best color combination and the right style fashion for their online Barbie doll.
