I created a plugin that is a companion to a php script that I used recently - http://anothercoffee.net/drupal-to-wordpress-migration-tool/. This basically picks up where the other script left off, and migrates images after the content. It uses WordPress' built-in media sideload library and ties it directly to the post ID, so it will automatically be entered as [...]

A big day and busy week! Moving to live customer testing on the database/directory project that has been in the works for the past few months, the Excelerate Conference site has their schedule of events calendar ready to go and should be completed and launched today, I have the mail server set up and ready [...]

After a lot of searching and comparison, I've decided to purchase a new VPS server for my clients and my own personal sites. I've run into a few email issues in the past few months, and despite the fact I've been with d9 for three years, and their service is great, I need to think [...]
Ah yes, a little cliche, but that's what you get from a developer.
