There is no need to have a heavy and long name as ”$arraycount” instead of the standard $i, $k, $j etc… since it’s just like a temporary variable used just to do the count inside the loop. If “good” developers had a way to use less letter than $i inside loops they would do it

As my post above said, that was an example. A lot of coders are doing this throughout by doing things like

list($xxx , $xxxx) = explode(etc etc etc)

You guys are missing the point.

It’s not about the I

That was just a very small simple example.

I am talking about the who code being 1 letter or like $xx or even $xxx etc

This is bad practice to have and isn’t good coding about not having bad practice and isn’t that what we are trying to achieve on these marketplaces?

I spent over 4 hours yesterday reading through a plugin because or poorly named and bad commented code here it should of only taken 15 minutes

@SportTipsWorld – very professional of you +1

Title needs a better name lol… not really meaning exactly what i wanted to get to say.

In the last 2 months i have either purchased or done work for some clients where coding have come from Envato marketplaces.

All items work well and most are very solid with good documentation. All in all is a good item.

BUT …

It is amazing how many coders are just coding and making it hard for other coders to read.

For instance just using 1 letter variables with no meanings just to save a split second of coding.

for ($i = 1; $i <= 10; $i++) {
    echo $i;
}

No or very little comments to state what $i means, so you have to read the whole code line by line to get to understand the logic given to the code.

How hard is it to do this:

// calling all arrays 10 times
for ($arraycount = 1; $arraycount <= 10; $arraycount++) {
    echo $arraycount;
}

I think this needs to be within the review process because on large plugins, themes etc this process can be a nightmare when reading.

I’ve no idea why you’re trying Windows and complaining if you’re a MAC user. Could you explain me?

I think Envato should display earnings in local currency based on the country information they receive from authors’ profile and the current date’s foreign exchange index. I bet a lot of authors check foreign exchange more often than not to check their day’s earnings. A simple step by Envato would be helpful. What say guys?

There are apps out there which do this automatically.

I am using evastats which gives you a load of stats as well

2 days. Guess on UK will be more likely the same.

Thank you

Hi guys, this is the first month for receiving payment for me

I was wondering how long does it take from the 15th to the day the money enters the bank for swift payments?

Ive just installed it.

I hate it, everything i open goes to the desktop of the old system.

The ui is bad, the arrow when hovering over stays the same so you dont know if something is clickable.

All in all i am not impressed and i am seriously thinking about re-installing windows 7 ultimate again!

I have a iMac with the latest mountain lion, a million times better!

lol, why an arrow wouldn’t be clickable?

as for me, I won’t even bother to try it anytime soon – so much for my excitement over W8

Its a really bad upgrade i think.

My wamp is not working anywhere near as good as it once did.

Photoshop keeps closing down after about 10 minutes of working on files over 100mb.

Considering my computer spec is:

3.2 Ghz i.7 16gb ram 2gb dedicated graphics card.

Ive found a few bugs, the maps or anything geographical are about 100 miles out from me when using auto location.

Windows are trying to be Macintosh a little to hard and not as gracefully as they would like

This is pretty good, i am no expert but i am pretty sure this breaches the xbox dashboard trademark breach.

Anwyway if it doesnt, you may want to add a little more animation on the hover, maybe use ajax to load the page by sliding down or something.
