It turns out that Magento has some really convenient functions already made at its core, which i don’t know about and this is one of them. Mage category model object includes move() function, that manages just that. Lets view simple code example for better understanding.
$categoryId = 2269;
$parentId = 2268;
$category = Mage::getModel('catalog/category')->load($categoryId);
$category->move($parentId, null);
When this is executed your category should have a different path, if changes are not visible than try to clean cache and reindex data. After you have done that everything should be ok.

Modify shared item’s title, description & title appear on Facebook
Thousands of websites are shared in facebook each day. Whenever you share a URL on facebook, it generates a feed against that url. The feed has a title, an excerpt or description and an image.
You can enhance how the shared item appears on Facebook by configuring how it gets previewed on a user’s profile and when a user tries to share it.You do this with <meta> tags. If there are no meta tags specified then Facebook share will take the site title, starting content of the site as excerpt and usually the first image shown.
In order to customize how your site looks while being shared on facebook you need to add meta tags in the <head> of your page.

Incrementing a field in CakePHP like Hits & Votes
Let’s say you have an application, where users can place votes for their favorite products and you’d like to increment the current number of votes by one or count number of hits(Number of page views)
It’s very easy by using updateAll:
$this->Product->updateAll(array('Product.vote'=>'Product.vote+1'), array('Product.id'=>40));
You may want to restrict Product model by using unbindModel, containable, etc.
Also, you don’t have to pass in the second argument to updateAll, if you wish to update all records in your table.
