		<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[So, you might remember, back in August, I wrote a plugin called &#8220;Back End Instructions&#8221; and popped it on my site for you all to freely download and use, if you wanted. If you recall, the plugin is for those of you who have a lot of clients that utilize WordPress, and you&#8217;ve written a custom theme for them, but no matter how many times you send instructions or answer their questions on how to [...]

		<description><![CDATA[One of this things I&#8217;ve learned from last year&#8217;s sabbatical is the need to take the reins. I knew this when I started the sabbatical, actually &#8211; that I was letting my business drive me, instead of the other way around. I spent the year trying to figure out how to make it work, and more often than not, I cam up blank. it&#8217;s an odd feeling &#8211; floundering. Which is how I often feel. [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, I posted a lengthy intro in my process of organization. I went a little into how I came to the conclusions I did about the subject, and why the articles/books/etc. I found didn&#8217;t seem to help me much. In today&#8217;s post, I&#8217;m going to tell you what I did with those conclusions. It&#8217;s actually pretty simple: I had a lot of stuff I needed to get organized. I wanted a simple system that would [...]

		<description><![CDATA[One of my big failures is my organizational skills. Back when I started my sabbatical (and all during it) it was something mentioned a lot: how I wanted to improve that aspect of my life. For the entire year, I would read every blog post I could find on how to get organized; how to become zen-like in the organizational system, how good it was if I were, ways to manage and/or accomplish it, even [...]

		<description><![CDATA[So, while I was working on my Back End Instructions plugin yesterday, I was talking to my husband about the client I had built it for. As a quick notation, it&#8217;s a group of women who are of a certain age (no offense to anyone &#8211; I&#8217;m getting there myself!) and who do not like change. It&#8217;s taken me almost three years of pulling teeth to get things to where they are now. They want [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Well hello there! I&#8217;m all excited. I think I&#8217;ve mentioned before (although for the life of me I can&#8217;t find reference to it) that I wrote a quick plugin once to provide back end instructions for clients. It was using the Userextra/Usermeta plugins, and I edited/added text right in the plugin area to pull up the right stuff, so it wasn&#8217;t easily managed. It worked (and was a &#8220;quick fix&#8221;) &#8211; but I wanted it [...]

		<description><![CDATA[I think every &#8220;renewal process&#8221; goes through this (at least, I hope so&#8230;), where the renewer believes they have it all figured out, and before they even get started, they run into some kind of epiphany, and they get set back to square one. The thing is, there&#8217;s a difference between getting sent back to square one because of a setback, and being sent back because you somehow saw that clear line of vision for [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Wow &#8211; 9 months (?!?) into my sabbatical, and I&#8217;ve finally made some hard decisions. I have to say, although I felt a little guilty about taking a sabbatical, I feel like it was a really good decision. As hard-headed as I am, though, it took a while to get some basics sorted. But I will put out there the things I&#8217;ve learned about myself (some of which I&#8217;ve mentioned before), because &#8211; as usual [...]
