I've been working on a new plugin, this time it's in the realm of real-time database replication, without needing to set up any additional accounts or worry about losing data during an extended downtime, or the space in between backups. I started this project wanting a simple, reliable failover plan for a WordPress e-commerce site. [...]
I have been working on implementing the API for IP2Location.io into a brute force login plugin, and have made huge progress. It currently can identify incoming requests, get the country, and has both online API based and 'offline' flat file based IP blocking. Working on database storage and blocking bots and spammers next.

I use a lot of tools when I migrate sites, and one of them that I've used a few times before is a WordPress importer that takes your Drupal database and migrates it into a WordPress format. It's available here, and I've mentioned it a few times before - does a great job, although only [...]
I do a lot of different things - some of it web related, some of it IT, and a lot of it is complicated stuff. I recently helped a high school friend move her blog from wordpress.com to a self-hosted environment at bluehost. Parenting From The Heart was an easy one - not a ridiculous amount of [...]
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 [...]
