One feature I'm extremely excited to see in WordPress 3.0 is the new "Menus" feature. It's pretty easy to add and use in your theme. I was having trouble finding documentation on it, so this is not "official" but this is as far as I can tell, how you can go about using it. First, […]

One of the projects I've been working on recently is to move a client's Blogger blog into WordPress. The blog is a few years old, but it has an ENORMOUS amount of comments. Doing the standard import from within WordPress wasn't bringing over all the posts and it barely scratched the surface of bringing over […]

A project I was working on recently required the use of a membership plugin. I had done some research on membership plugins awhile back and remembered only finding ones that were pretty pricey. One last ditch effort searching through the plugin repository on WordPress.org – I found one that I hadn't remembered seeing before: S2Member. […]

I can't speak for anyone else who has run into this problem, but I know I have run into it on more than one occasion. Having just figured out my particular issue this time, I'm making a note for myself (and anyone else who may have the same problem). You may run into this problem […]

When using WordPress as a CMS, I often repurpose the "posts" as other types of content a site may need.

Background: For a site I was working on, I was pulling in content from another page onto the homepage. However I wanted to just bring in an excerpt not the whole page. (And actually, a customized excerpt at that – not a default set character or word limit). I also didn't want any images brought […]

I just saw this plugin show up on the WordPress Plugins list. WOW! I haven't had a chance to use it yet, but can think of a dozen places where I can use this feature!!! Very excited to see it! Secondary HTML Content – WordPress Plugin

(Plugin and this post last updated: 10/20/2009 – Latest Plugin Version: 1.1.1 – see changelog at bottom of post) I have been wanting to do more wordpress plugin development, but it has a somewhat steep learning curve. So I'm testing the waters a bit here. I've done some testing with the plugin, but feedback is […]

One of my clients had set it up so that one particular page in their WordPress install would load as https:// and even though they changed all links they could find in their template to use root-relative links, they were still getting complaints from IE about the page loading some secure and non-secure items.
