In preparing for the interview, Nick Ohrn…

My thanks to Shane for putting…

Version 1.1.1 is now available for each, fixing a variety of minor issues and cleaning up a few of the new features. As this does fix some bugs, it is a recommended upgrade for all…

Dougal has a good post about using post formats (new in WordPress 3.1) in themes. His technique is pretty clean, but I much prefer letting Carrington handle the conditional code. We landed support for post formats in Carrington Core over a month ago. To support a custom post format, all you have to do is…

We’ve been rolling out our hosting services slowly, mainly for our clients at Crowd Favorite, but we’re at a point now where we’re willing to…
