		<description><![CDATA[So I&#8217;m working on a site right now that incorporates the new bbPress plugin with WordPress. I&#8217;m testing the login/logout process, and since it&#8217;s now a plugin (instead of a standalone) you can use your WordPress logging for both things (the site and the forum). So I&#8217;m putting in a link for the logout url, via wp_logout_url(), and I&#8217;m following the Codex instructions for the redirect. but as I continue testing, I realize that the [...]

		<description><![CDATA[So a looooong time ago, I released my first WordPress plugin &#8211; expandable jQuery comment replies. I&#8217;ve been remiss in keeping it updated &#8211; it was written for WP 2.7, and here we are, almost on 3.1. So when I released by Back End Instructions plugin, I decided perhaps I should be a good girl and update my old plugin. Updating it locally wasn&#8217;t an issue. however, updating the repository&#8230;. that&#8217;s a different story. I [...]

		<description><![CDATA[NOTE: October 5, 2010 I just recently used this plugin while developing locally for a client. I did an SQL export of the site to move the testbed to the live server, and was muchly surprised to discover this widget does not get retained in the database for some reason. I had to redo all of the widgets manually. I just wanted to post notice of this bug, because I want you to know that [...]

Gmail is one of the hardest to make comply to this small desire.  I've put my travels in the world of creating HTML signature files all in one place so you don't have to wade through everything to get the info you need.

		<description><![CDATA[So I currently have a client that &#8211; no offense to anyone, I swear it &#8211; cannot seem to handle instructions to save his life. I&#8217;ve written two PDF documents, as well as one in Word format, as well as multiple phone conversations, and having an &#8220;Active Collab&#8221; type area where your discussions are stored for future reference &#8211; and finally emails. However, I still find myself repeatedly giving him instructions, because if it&#8217;s not [...]

		<description><![CDATA[I had an interesting dilemma over the weekend. Someone sent me a comp to code out (PSD->WordPress), which isn&#8217;t anything shocking since I do that a lot. What the dilemma was: in the sidebar, they wanted a category listing. However they wanted only the category listing for the category page you were on. So, say you&#8217;re in the &#8220;Dogs&#8221; category&#8230; they wanted the sidebar to have &#8220;Dogs&#8221; (the current category name) at he top, and [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Typically I do most of my work on my computer in a localhost environment. Makes for much faster editing &#8211; I can change the file on my computer and changes are immediately seen on the &#8220;site&#8221; locally (the alternative would be edit, upload, wait, reload page, and repeat). Now, on my PC, I used to run a neat little program called XAMPP to put Apache, PHP and MySQL on my computer and turn it into [...]

		<description><![CDATA[So here&#8217;s the idea: I&#8217;ve had many clients in the past who wanted to have page-specific widgetized sidebars. Now, I&#8217;ve covered this before, but one thing has always gotten me: the fact that you have to write a lot of bloated code to get it to work. It seems like you should be able to pull the post slugs into some kind of array, and have the widgets auto-create themselves with a small bit of [...]

I can&#8217;t believe it.), and I returned with an illness, so I&#8217;ve been unexpectedly down for the count this week as well. I&#8217;m still not 100%, but at least I can now sit here and do some things without feeling woozy. So, now I need to figure out where I left off and [...]
