It’s really hard to believe it has been 2 years 4 months and 8 days since I started running with the Vibram shoes. When I first got them I thought they were some of the weirdest shoes I had ever seen. I’ll be the first to admit I got them as sort of a joke.…

To those who are advocating a government shutdown, I emplore you to remember the thousands of workers who will will essentially lose their jobs during the shutdown. If you can’t find the heart to worry about those thousands of workers, think about the friends and family members who might lose their jobs. Think hard, I…

Recently I was having an issue with the WordPress autosave running on my posts in a custom post type. I am running a lot of scripts in the “save_post” action and couldn’t find a good way to exclude autosaves from running this code. Note that I looked at the info being passed to the functions…

After some discussions with coworkers and a plugin user, I realized the plugin needed a little more documentation on the template directory. I have added some absolute paths to the plugin settings screen for easier reference. I also added a button to test and make sure that the directory is usable for the plugin. It…

I’m very happy to announce the release of the Code To Widget WordPress plugin. The plugin reads files in a directory and automatically creates widgets to be placed in sidebars.

Another year is coming to a close. As I reflect on another year gone by on this Christmas day, I am reminded of another good year. The measure of a good year most of the time eludes me, but I am thankful that I didn’t lose anyone that I knew this year. Maybe that is…

After much thought on this subject over the years, I still don’t understand the need for Blackouts of Television coverage of sporting events. As I was working tonight I thought it would be nice to use the MLB.com At Bat app for the iPhone to watch the Rockies take on the Dodgers at Coors Field…

I got my new Vibram Five Fingers KSO shoes today. As soon as I got home I put them on. It was a very interesting feeling when I put them on. I have had many many pairs of tennis shoes throughout the years, but these are by far the most interesting. According to the Vibram…

When using functions like add_submenu_page etc, make sure that you add them at the admin_menu action. If you try to add them any place other than that you will get “Insufficient Privileges” errors when trying to go to the page. NOTE: If you are in WP 2.8 WordPress allows you to run those functions at…

WordPress has a very distinct way of doing things when it comes to file uploads. There is the restriction that PHP puts into place with file uploads (ie upload_max_filesize and post_max_size), and restrictions that WP puts in via values in the database. With the PHP values, if you need to upload large files you will…

Today I decided that I am going to write up a things I’ve learned section to my blog. It probably won’t be much, and most likely no one will read it, but I need a place that I can write down these things so I can find them in the future. Leaving it up to…

Throughout the past few days I have been reading stories about Patrick Witt, a Nebraska Cornhusker Quarterback, asking to be released from his scholarship. Many stories have come out about this, but one caught my attention. I read a story today that said he wanted a guarantee that he would be the starter for the Huskers by…

This is my first post. I’m not much of a blogging guy, as most people who know me know that I really don’t have all that much to say that makes sense. But I’m giving it a shot anyway. I figured that since I have been working in the blogging industry for nearly a year…
