I am currently managing a Magento site located at https://www.standardcoldpressedoil.com. Due to the high cost and slow speed of maintaining the site, I am considering switching to WordPress.
I am considering two options to address this issue:
Option 1: Implement a "301 redirect" from the current domain (https://www.standardcoldpressedoil.com) to a brand new domain (https://standardstore.in) and switch to a completely new WordPress site.
Note: Our current site receives approximately 6000 visitors from Google and 10,000 direct visitors who place orders.
Is this a good idea?
Option 2: Create a new WordPress site and redirect all old pages from the current domain (https://www.standardcoldpressedoil.com) to the corresponding new pages on the WordPress site using a "301 redirect".
Note: In this case, the domain will remain the same.
I would like to hear your thoughts on which option is best and if there are any alternative recommendations.
Thank you for your time and advice.
I created a "301 redirect" from old site to new site using .htaccess file. Which is the best way to address the "redirect" when Switching from Magento to WordPress.

I have a product consisting of hundreds of separate websites - each of which has a unique URL. Unfortunately it is not feasible for me to create a separate Facebook App ID for each website. Is it possible to configure one Facebook App ID that can be shared/used across all websites?
I know it's possible with subdomains but haven't had any luck finding much information about my situation.
Thanks!
There isn't. The only way it so redirect to a login page that is the same for all.

My organization has created a Facebook tab but because our site is not SSL certified the tab only works on some computers. We will not be getting SSL certified any time soon. Is there a way to work around this?
Your question can be paraphrased as 'how can we show HTTPS content to our users without needing to serve HTTPS content' - it's not possible
It shouldn't be difficult to buy a certificate for your domain and install it to the server - costs $15-$100 for the cert depending on where you get it and a few minutes (or hours, i guess) to reconfigure a web server
Obviously if you've a complicated setup with firewalls and strict procedures and processes in the company this will take a lot longer than the few minutes it would take a single developer, but surely in that case not supporting SSL is also seen as a big problem since you'll lose a relatively large percentage of users
(source: It was >10% of users about a year ago - it's higher now.)

I'm looking for an authoritative source on which browsers people browse facebook with. Specifically, I'm curious what percent IE6 and IE7 are at.
I constantly run into issues with IE7 on Facebook, and am trying to determine if it's worth my time to search for solutions.
I doubt if Facebook would release that private information.
You could use your own web server's log files (the server that hosts your facebook app) and get stats from those files. But I presume, you don't have access to those. So you might be able to make a guess by checking out the global stats here: http://www.w3counter.com/globalstats.php or http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp
EDIT
Some information from a hosting company about its Facebook stats. However, this information is from 2009. :|
https://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=94523840758
Facebook has announced they are dropping support for IE7 (they already no longer support IE6). They have not announced numbers as far as I know. I doubt it will be worth it for you to support it as well for your Facebook app.

Dynamically generated page URLs don't work this morning [closed]

This morning dynamically generated links to FB pages from our app stopped working. Link to a page like this http://www.facebook.com/pages/125567350861413 used to work just fine, now it requires page name http://www.facebook.com/pages/Daniels-Real-Estate/125567350861413
Why would this be changed? Was there a problem with old pages link format?
We tweaked our code to take into account page name and made it work. But if a user changes the name of a page the link to this page will break, until we refresh the list of pages in our db. We'll write a chron job that will refresh the list of page names for all users using our app multiple times a day, but we'd prefer not having to do that.
Anyone else ran into this issue? What was your workaround (other than the above)?
While this is probably an off-topic question, you can get the page url using the graph api:
http://graph.facebook.com/125567350861413 and looking at the link property. As to why Facebook changed this, you would have to ask them at their developer group or log a bug.

The problem is that AdSense has to crawl your pages to make suitable ads. If I have dynamic content or user-generated content, then AdSense is not suitable. How can I modify my site so that it is accessible to the Adsense crawlers, or should I approach the problem of monetizing my site from another angle?
does your content require a login?
If not then theres no reason Google can't crawl it. Just because its dynamic or user generated doesnt mean google can't see it.
If it doesn't require a login and Google still cant crawl your site, then you have done something wrong and your site is not SEO'd very well in the first place.
As far as other ad networks go, heres a few off the top of my head
Burst Media
ValueClick Media
Casale Media.
Though keep in mind these are usually much harder to join then Adsense.
