Yes, it is a hack. But, in his hack, he does one thing that you want to do. Read his install instructions so you can see how he does the online part. Don't install the rest of the hack. Don't use his code exactly. Change it to do what you want.
That's the easiest way to learn how to do new things when you are coding. Emulate somebody who already has done it.
