A few months ago, while driving in to downtown Denver: Her: Should we take the Park Ave exit or 20th st? Me: I don’t know, is there a game tonight? Her: I don’t know. Me: Hmm, there should be a web site for that… …and now there is. Introducing GameTonight.in, a single serving web site…

I released a new version of our WordPress HelpCenter plugin last week in order to update information in it to reflect our expanded hours. I realized that this might cause some concern for any of our affiliates. One of the things we offer to our affiliates is a customized version of the HelpCenter plugin that…

I’m very pleased that we have reached the point with WordPress HelpCenter where we need to add another developer to our team. We’re looking for someone with a broad range of WordPress, PHP, XHTML and CSS experience, basic server configuration experience, and in particular someone with outstanding communication skills. Ideally we’d like to add someone…

When we built the backup system we need for our clients at Crowd Favorite, we did so with some additional ideas in mind. I’m pleased to announce that we’ve extended it so that you can use it with your clients too: introducing our white label program. The white label program is very simple. We provide…

I’ve released a new version of Twitter Tools, my WordPress plugin that creates a full 2-way integration between your blog and your Twitter account. This release addresses two bugs: The use of the native json_decode() function, required by the changes in WordPress 2.9 (version 2.1) created a problem for users with servers running 32-bit PHP.…

I recently put new releases of my Twitter Tools plugin – basically patches so that it would work in WordPress 2.9 on versions of PHP prior to 5.2. This is an interesting situation, where I hadn’t really done anything wrong in the plugin and the WP core team hadn’t really done anything wrong in the…

Child theme support has landed in SVN for Carrington. The way it is implemented allows child themes to add templates to the parent theme (adding more supported conditions for post types, comments, categories, etc.), not just replace existing templates. If you are building themes on Carrington, check this out and provide feedback before it’s tagged and released.

Version 2.1 of my Twitter Tools plugin is now available. Twitter Tools creates a two-way integration between your Twitter account and your WordPress blog. You can send your blog posts to Twitter and bring your tweets back to your blog for display, archiving, or creating posts from them. This version has a bunch of changes…

Based on the feedback from my previous post, I think I know what the issue may be between Twitter Tools 2.0 and WordPress 2.9. I have a new version available that may address the issue that some people were having saving posts with Twitter Tools enabled in WordPress 2.9. I believe the cause of this…

I often get questions about WordPress security and how best to manage WordPress upgrades. These issues are closely related, and I’ve thought about them a good deal over the years (and I’ve been doing this long enough to have experimented with a variety of approaches). These are the approaches I am currently using and recommend…

A bunch of folks in the WordPress support forums appear to be having trouble with Twitter Tools with WordPress 2.9. It works as expected in my testing, the WordPress HelpCenter hasn’t been able to reproduce this either, and the works/broken voting on the plugin page is fairly evenly split. I’d love to gather some explicit…

We’ve restructured WordPress HelpCenter a little bit, and it is now fully run by Crowd Favorite and staffed by Crowd Favorite developers. This change is due to how the business has evolved as it’s grown, and what we believe will allow it to flourish going forward. We have a: new phone number1: (303) 395-1346 and…

We’ve launched an affiliate program and a public knowledge base at WordPress HelpCenter (WPHC), two things that I’m very excited about. We’re getting closer and closer to my overall vision for the service. Affiliate Program The affiliate program is really core to how we want the HelpCenter to work (note: anyone can join the affiliate…

The WordPress HelpCenter is hiring another web developer. Due to the nature of the work we do at the HelpCenter, we’re looking for someone with a broad range of PHP, XHTML and CSS experience and in particular someone with outstanding communication skills. This will be a full time position with benefits, and we are open…
