In case you hadn't heard (and if you're using wordpress, how could you NOT have heard) Wordpress 2.8 is out. One of the features included in this round was a rework of the way Widgets work – including a easier to use API. In light of this, I made use of the new [...]

This is the second time I've run into this problem. I opted not to post about it the first time, because the solution was so simple it was kind of silly. But lo-and-behold – I hit it again and forgot what the solution was anyway.
I know there can be more than one thing [...]

If you are using the default theme and have made modifications to it without renaming it – you may be in for a surprise when you upgrade using the new easy auto-upgrade button. Your theme will be replaced with the original one that WordPress came with. For all I know there's probably already a document/installation [...]

When you use wp_list_pages() – you get a full dump of everything. If you restrict the depth, then you might not be showing the child / subpages under each page.
The code I have below will first list only the "main nav" (parent) pages. If you click on one of the main nav / (parent) [...]

In honor of "Thank a WordPress Plugin Developer" (yes, I know I'm a little late. hush!) I wanted to recognize some plugins and their developers that have made my job so much easier.

(=cringe=) Yeah. You just know I've gotta be overriding that. [...]

I've long been a fan of creating non-blog sites using WordPress and pushing it's content management abilities to its maximum. However, I'm about to develop a site that could involve at least a hundred pages. This has been one of the issues I've had with WordPress when used as a CMS – it's "page management" [...]

It's been a while since I made a plea for help on here. But this time I'm really stumped.
Here's the short story:
A brand new clean install of wordpress – no plugins, no posts even except the default post. No funky characters in the blogs name. As plain vanilla as you can get. Run a search [...]

I've had a few clients ask for this, and I saw some requests to do this on the forums, but no one ever that I found came up with a solution. Here's the scenario, you have your blog posts, and maybe they're long, and rather than make the page *even longer* by dumping the comments [...]

One of my clients recently purchased new servers and wanted to migrate all their sites to the new servers. Some of these sites were wordpress powered. Thankfully, I found this article that made the move a breeze.
The critical thing I want to save for my future reference is the following sql lines from that post:
