    Filtering the page links

    Nothing is ever truly perfect. There are some things that do come close though. In the mean time we can make just a few changes to get our desired result. The photo above is a quick comparison of a photo I took a few years back while at Yosemite National Park. As you can see…

  • Be friendly and filter your foot

    A brief glimpse of my WordPress.com hosted blog’s footer. I’ve had that thing for nearly six years. Yep, six years. A little hard to believe that I only have about eighty posts but it’s true. Part of that reason being me branching off and trying on a self hosted site. I wish I could tell…

  • Regenerate all the things!

    So, I’ve been dabbling with WordPress for some time and I have loved every bit of it. I even helped a few people along the way. Learned many things and met and talked to many more. Every day I do feel like I am learning something new. Whether that is how to enqueue a certain…

  • All about my Child – Theme that is

    Frequenting the WordPress support forum always makes wonder a lot of things. The biggest one, I hate to admit, is do people read. I know it does come off a little mean, rude but the truth is a lot of the threads that are in the forums could easily be avoided. The number one being…

  • Issues with my_query

    Recently I was in the middle of creating a theme that had support for a front page and blog with featured posts that displayed in a certain manner. I read up on how to create a new WP_Query and felt pretty confident I would be able to get the desired results. Yeah, I was a…

  • Archive widget at a glance

    Today I put the finishing touches to my customized archives widget. While I am tempted to submit it to the WordPress plugin repository I will hold off for a little bit. The reason: I’m not quite ready. That will usually be my excuse. Enough of that on to the code! The issue I love using archives…

  • WordPress 3.6 in April

    The most recent version of WordPress got delayed but I feel it is for the good. The reason this time is because the features are not quite the way the community would like. There are some minor issues but will be fixed within the time span. The reason I’m pretty pumped about this next major…

  • Displaying the gallery count and the images

    Sometime last week I had an idea that finally managed to come alive. More and more I have been getting more and more ideas when it comes to creating WordPress themes.
