While our post formats admin UI is getting a nice warm reception (100+ tweets, pings and comments, wow!), there is a concern that has popped up a few times – one that I included a nod towards in my original post. What happens when publishers put important data in the post format custom fields, then…

The Post Formats feature that landed in WordPress 3.1 is a great framework feature. I’m leveraging it extensively on this site to drive my link, status, photo and gallery posts. While it is a great framework feature, it only really exists as something developers leverage to extend WordPress. There is no UI that ships with…

Me: How many Kindles can I reasonably own when I just like the idea of using them but don’t actually use them? Dave: I’m not great at math, but knowing you and hearing that question, I’d say 4. I only need so many test devices for Delivereads, but they are cheap and new and shiny!…

I’ve released an updated version of Drafts Dropdown. This is a WordPress plugin that gives you easy access to your draft posts. A “Drafts” link is added to the admin bar. Clicking this drops down a drawer with your drafts. The new version also updates the styling, improves performance, and will make you younger, fitter…

I talked to a number of developers about at this year’s WordCamp SF about where best to publish WordPress code as a developer. We definitely want to use the SVN repositories on WordPress.org so that released plugins can be easily available to the community, but there is very little developer community there. We’ve also used…

Yesterday we released CF GUID-Fix, a plugin to address an issue that could cause problems for folks using our RAMP content-deployment product for WordPress (my previous post about RAMP).1 There were versions of WordPress prior to 3.1 that had a bug that caused pages and some custom post types to have non-unique GUID values. This…

I’m very excited to introduce RAMP to the WordPress community. RAMP is a new commercial product for WordPress that makes it easy to set up your content in your staging environment, then push those changes to your live site. At Crowd Favorite we are fortunate to have some really great clients. These clients are running…

I’ve got an idea… I love it when I get a note like this from internet superhero Dave Pell. It normally means I’m going to get a chance to help build something I’m going to love. Our latest project together is Delivereads. You may have read about it already on Daring Fireball, Gizmodo or the…

Sadly we weren’t able to avoid the .1 release for Carrington Build and the Carrington Business theme this time around. 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…

At SxSWi this year I’ll be joining Shane Pearlman, Brandon Jones and Sonia Simone on a panel entitled Making Money with WordPress (Without Working at Automattic).1 We’ll be on stage bright and early at 9:30am on Sunday. Get coffee on the way. I think it will be a pretty interesting discussion. We’ve got the major…
