  • A WordPresser goes to DrupalCon

    A WordPresser goes to DrupalCon

    I’ll be going to my first DrupalCon next week. I can’t say that I’ve always wanted to go to DrupalCon, but I’ve certainly been curious about it since joining Pantheon because it’s always been such a huge part of Pantheon’s ecosystem and we’re always a big sponsor. And over the last few months, between #WPDrama…

  • I was on the WP Tavern podcast

    If you want to hear me talk about how great I think Composer is (and sound relatively intelligent doing so), check out the WP Tavern podcast episode I recorded a while ago which just went live. Thanks Nathan for having me on!

  • Switching between PHP versions

    I recently learned how to run multiple versions of PHP on my local machine and switch between them using Homebrew. It’s pretty straightforward, actually.

    I wrote a thing, and then I wrote about the thing I wrote. Use Simple Page Builder to Add Unique Layouts to Content

  • Hacking WordPress Search for Fun and Profit!

    I wrote a blog post for WebDevStudios that’s kind of based on my WordCamp SLC presentation I just gave. (You can also check out the slides for that, if you want.) Hacking WordPress Search for Fun and Profit!

  • The single greatest contribution to open source by WordPress is documentation

    I’m going to throw an idea out there, and that is that the single, most important contribution that WordPress has made to open source software as a whole is documentation. When I first started using WordPress 8 or so years ago, that was the biggest difference between WordPress and other platforms. You could search for…
