Divvying up list items between columns
This has got to be one of the absolute best cool CSS functions I’ve had the pleasure of using. Getting columns to line up properly and even distribute list items between them? Frickin awesome. How many times have you had a fat list of things going down the page and it looks just funky? You […]
This has got to be one of the absolute best cool CSS functions I’ve had the pleasure of using. Getting columns to line up properly and even distribute list items between them? Frickin awesome. How many times have you had a fat list of things going down the page and it looks just funky? You then feel obligated to put in a second or third column to make it look decent. Then you sit there and start counting out items for each...
Interesting wp-config.php hacks
I was looking over the logs today and it seems that every minute or two, we get a call to wp-cron.php – and since my server seems to get beat to death at times, I was looking for any way I could to reduce traffic and proc usage. Here’s a a hack or two to […]

WordPress keeps stripping empty tags!
Yeah, okay, so this probably is NOT something that you always run across. And I bet in a LOT of circumstances, this is actually something that you actually WOULD want. I know it has come in handy many times while using the visual editor in WP. In this case, however, it isn’t so frickin’ handy. […]

I know it has come in handy many times while using the visual editor in WP. In this case, however, it isn’t so frickin’ handy. I have been working with a new site for a local legal office, Mast Firm in Smithfield NC, and the particular theme I chose had a...
WordPress Heartbeat – Ugh – Disabling it
You know, I really liked the whole idea of getting those automatic saves in there with WordPress when they released it. And for the most part, it works really well. Now, I’m not going to claim to be an uber-genius on the inner-workings of WordPress. That really is NOT my focus. I’m more on the […]
You know, I really liked the whole idea of getting those automatic saves in there with WordPress when they released it. And for the most part, it works really well. Now, I’m not going to claim to be an uber-genius on the inner-workings of WordPress. That really is NOT my focus. I’m more on the marketing side of it, but have occasional dalliances into the guts. This particular feature though, I have not dallied into –...
SQL Lifesaver for WordPress Duplicate Posts
Okay, if you haven’t done it before… Some of us need to make sure we get content up on our blogs regardless of how busy we get. And sometimes, this can get out of hand. In a big way. “I have 58,126 posts… WTF??” Yes, the AutoBlog poster from the folks at WPMU Dev DOES […]
Okay, if you haven’t done it before… Some of us need to make sure we get content up on our blogs regardless of how busy we get. And sometimes, this can get out of hand. In a big way. “I have 58,126 posts… WTF??” Yes, the AutoBlog poster from the folks at WPMU Dev DOES do its job. I have to say, there probably should be a setting to avoid duplication – as of those 58,126 posts, there were only...
