A few things have changed since the last time I posted the IMAP migration script, and my wishlist of features is almost complete. Instead of a single file that you have to manually specify variables in, you now have fillable form that uses jQuery.post to send variables to another file (called process.php), which handles the [...]

I ran into an issue with WP E-commerce recently where the shipping options appeared to be unchecked every day that we went to go and look at them. Turns out it was a line in one of the shipping files that reset the shipping array to just "shipwire" which made it appear as if someone [...]

This is a throwback to last year; I was watching TV with my oldest son when I heard the familiar jingle of an email on my phone, or my smartwatch, or both. It was a client - as usual - after hours, wanting a quick response. I ran downstairs and told him to finish his [...]

Parents

You all know what I'm talking about, parents and technology. It's been around for the better part of three decades, but when did they start to learn about computers? Oh, about the past 5 years - or less. It's a stigma, and it means learning something new, and being afraid of not being good at [...]

That day. When you're in a really important meeting and you realize you have dried drool on your shoulder, and don't even know it.

Submitted my first change request/commit for Jetpack, which I already have in use on my site. You'd think having Google+ pages as a link would be something that they'd already have on there? Strange! Find it here: https://github.com/Automattic/jetpack/pull/2654 I went a little further down the blogging road with MainWP and converted my plugin/extension over to [...]

Been a very interesting couple of weeks! I got married, have started blogging for MainWP (a software company that creates a management suite for WordPress developers such as myself), I created a basic extension using their framework on top of a plugin, all part of the tutorials here: http://blog.mainwp.com/creating-a-wordpress-plugin/, and am in the process of uploading a video [...]

  I’m going to dive right into this blog post on creating a plugin for WordPress. There are countless tutorials out there and ways to code and structure a plugin, but for the purposes of these articles I’m going to make it short and simple. […]
