Standardizing classes in themes

Posted by: March, 30 2012

One thing I’d like to figure out is a way for theme programmers to standardize some common classes. Take .hentry or .entry-content for example, these could well be registered as uniformly identified selectors and plugins could integrate better into the markup. It would also be helpful to be able to feed in other common things like #site-title, #site-description, .entry-title [...]

Professional WordPress Plugin Development

Posted by: March, 29 2012

I am going to FL in a few days and I needed some good reading material. I was considering the usual stuff but decided this time to work on beefing up my skills a little. Since I’m doing mostly plugin development I thought the Pro WP Plugin Development book would be a good read. While [...]

LEGO Serious Play at the Scrum Meetup in Atlanta

Posted by: March, 29 2012

I went to the scrum meetup tonight and the topic was “Better meetings with LEGO Serious Play.” I was intrigued and since I loved (and still do) playing with LEGO’s as a kid, I thought why not? I’m way glad that I went too. Not only was it good times it opened my eyes to [...]

FitVid.js, FitText.js and Lettering.js 3-in-one plugin

Posted by: March, 29 2012

I have been looking at FitVids for a while now and have used it in a couple of themes where Video will be predominantly displayed. I decided to put together a plugin that uses the jQuery plugin. In looking further I saw that the authors also contribute to other projects including Lettering.js and FitText.js, both of which are also [...]

Document management plugins for WordPress

Posted by: March, 7 2012

I was asked recently to get a document management solution online for a project. We didn’t have time to write something custom, so we looked for an existing plugin that would do the job. I researched several plugins available in the repository. The problem with most of them was that they almost all create (multiple) [...]

Want to start using LESS in your themes right now? Guess what, you can. Activate this plugin then add a file called theme.less to your theme root directory and you’re rolling out LESS.

I uploaded 3696 images into 73 galleries in less than an hour

Posted by: February, 21 2012

That’s right. 3696 images into 73 individual galleries in about 40 minutes. Of course I used the NextGen gallery Zip upload feature, which automatically resized the images and put them into the gallery. Sorting them into Albums was fun. I had to increase the memory limit on the server, but other than that. I never could [...]
