Apparently there have been a few “snags” to get Font Awesome into the plugin repo that I wasn’t aware of but it makes sense since it’s license under SIL Open Font License. For those that don’t know, Font Awesome is a pictographic font set of 220 icons that are both infinitely scalable and screen reader compatible. Very quickly, before you get all crazy with the idea that the plugin repository is accepting “non-GPL” plugins, the SIL is compatible with the GPL. Ipstenu breaks down the specifics for you: The Font Awesome font is licensed under the SIL Open Font License […]

The guys at DradCast (hosted by the awesome Dre of Sucuri and Brad of WebDevStudios) are continuing their awesome interviews and perhaps the best intro ever was created last night via Adii Pienaar, one of the founders of WooThemes: So I’m been waiting for my invite and this opportunity for bloody ages, and I had to wait up until episode 11 to finally get it. I know, I was appalled as well. I guess that’s however, it’s indicative of how an ex-rockstar is treated these days, like a fucking ghost. That said, the greater WordPress ecosystem has taken notice of a […]

Andrew Nacin shared publicly last night the fact that Rdio support will be in 3.6 via oEmbed: Yes, @Rdio oEmbed support will come in WordPress 3.6. See http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/24242 . The issue is @Spotify does not offer an oEmbed endpoint. He also directly pinged Spotify with a request: Yo @spotify, if you add an http://oembed.com endpoint (mad easy) for the Play Button, it’ll be included in the next @WordPress release. I’m not a user of either Rdio or Spotify (am I missing out on something or what?) but from the responses it would seem that many of you are.

If you’re an internet geek (which, let’s face it, you are because you read a site about WordPress) then you have probably been accosted by the fact that today is the 20th anniversary of the World Wide Web. Well technically Tim Berners-Lee invented the WWW a couple of years before at CERN and just a few day ago CERN released the WWW in Royalty Free public domain. Twenty years ago, a team of researchers shared the Web with the world. Now they want to show a generation that grew up online what it was like in its earliest days. The European Organization for Nuclear Research, known as […]

By now you’ve heard that Ghost was fully funded in less than one day via Kickstarter, which is an incredible accomplishment! If you haven’t heard of Ghost yet you should familiarize yourself with it, as it appears to be a potentially strong competitor to WordPress. I say ‘appears’ because it isn’t actually ready yet and WordPress does have a ten year head start. Ghost, however, is gaining some ridiculous momentum and has many devout WordPressers excited. So what is the team behind Ghost looking to do with the next 25 days of their Kickstarter campaign? They want to raise 250,000 […]
