Recently, I installed an EasyPHP devserver on my local machine running Win10 to work on a WordPress theme. The WordPress site was mostly working without a problem except in a dashboard section of the site, where it was having some issues with updating. When I tried to update plugins to a newer version, the update failed, giving me, there were "no working transports found" message. Fortunately, the fix is simple and it should also apply for WAMP or if you installed the PHP separately.

In order to have a local development server on my Windows 10 machine, I recently installed EasyPHP DevServer edition v16.1.1. I wanted to make some design changes to my WordPress site without worrying I would break a live site.

In the end, I needed to update phpMyAdmin to newest version to make it work, but that was not as straightforward as I thought it would be. In this article, I will show you how to do that for EasyPHP.

When coding in JavaScript, I prefer using Visual Studio IDE due to its JavaScript IntelliSense and debugging capabilities.

In some instances, the IntelliSense is not working on canvas context and as a result, the list of suggestions is missing all the context methods and properties you would expect. This article will show how to fix that.
