Huge Magento Export
A client of ours has a huge magento product database and they requested the ability to do mass updates to those products. At first we decided to have them use the Import/Export section of the site but because of the size of the product database it wasn’t possible. Then we decided to use the profile system in a cron but, considering all of the products in the database are configurable, and the profile system ignores configurable products that wouldn’t work either. So we landed on pulling the Import/Export system into a nightly cron.
and here it is

Retrieve Authorize.net API keys from magento database.
Magento encrypts your authorize.net keys. Here’s how to retrieve them.
In the database, run this query.
select value from core_config_data where path IN ("payment/authorizenet/login", "payment/authorizenet/trans_key");
That should return 2 rows. Copy those rows into the following script and run it.
require_once("app/Mage.php"); //your actual path
Mage::app()->setCurrentStore(1);
$hlp = Mage::helper('core');
//The keys
echo ($hlp->decrypt("FAKEYPiqkMKgprIv8kfp0wqQ==") . "\n");
echo ($hlp->decrypt("FAKEDjCTFxqdkwOYoUyD0OdQ==") . "\n");
Voilà!
Magento and Robots.txt
