Microsoft Virtual Academy

1 comentario Learning on April 20, 2010 1 Comment

Following the idea of learning new things and make free courses online, I found this school of Microsoft called Microsoft Virtual Academy in which you have several courses, careers and specializations for.

Some of them are:

Courses: Office 2007, Windows XP, Windows 7, SQL Server 2005, Exchange Server 2003, etc..

Careers: Windows Application Development, Application Developer (Web, connected and interconnected), Windows Server 2008, Sharepoint Server, etc.

Specializations: Business Intelligence, Virtualization, Windows Server 2008 R2, and so on.

The least time-consuming are the courses because they have a smaller study material, then follow the majors and careers.

I like the idea and find it very good, is like the course of 5 stars Developer , you sign up, low material and you take the exam. You get points for consideration paid and the course, or specialized career ended.

So far I have done courses:

    • Course Windows XP SP2
    • Course SQL Server 2005
    • Windows Vista Course
    • Course 2007 Microsoft Office system
    • Course Office 2007 (RTM)
    • Course Windows Vista (RTM)

      And I noted in some races / classes and left me to take the exams, the good thing is that I will learn.

      I will comment on my progress.

      Castilian translation of plugin FAQ You

      Well as I like to share I leave the Spanish translation of the plugin FAQ You that allows a system of questions and answers, known as FAQ, and has some interesting options such as:

      • Create categories of questions.
      • Create questions and their answers.
      • Order the questions and categories.
      • Option to allow users to perform their questions and be included in the FAQ.
      • Ability to send an email warning that questions have been sent.
      • Managing user-submitted questions from the WordPress control panel.
      • Display questions JavaScript or not.
      • Option for users to search by category or question at all.

      Well leave me some insurance but to give an idea that's what brings this plugin you can see running in the FAQ section of this site.

      The original plug has French and Dutch languages, so I had to translate to use it and generate the appropriate files which is what we have to download below: FAQYou_Es

      How to install?

      1. Download the plugin from here or look from the management of WordPress plugins with the name FAQ You.
      2. Download the file FAQYou_Es.zip containing the translated files and decompress them.
      3. Upload the plugin folder anguages ​​l (wp-content/plugins/faq-you/languages ​​/) files-you-es_ES.mo faq and faq-you-es_ES.po.
      4. Reload the page, the system automatically detect the language and have the plugin ready in Castilian.

      Some text is not translated because no record is found in the translation files and the script does not take into account, as is easy to use and if you do not remember: Question = Question | Answer = Answer.
      The creator of the plugin and send you an email warning of the lines and send the translation so I hope to include it in future releases.

      Any questions or problems leave a comment, thanks.
