I got a notice the other day about signing up for an email list that I had completely forgotten about – how many times do you do that? It was from Memberful which is an easy way to sell digital goods, whether it’s software, graphics, fonts, icons, templates, themes, and plugins. Oh my! Anything really. Memberful is really easy (like point and click) to set up. It also optionally integrates quickly with WordPress via a plugin. The guys over at The Theme Foundry have been using it for over a year to sell their WordPress themes and integrate with their WordPress powered website. And, […]

Today we get the opportunity to meet Rhys Wynne, a web developer currently working in England and the man behind WP Email Capture.  He mentions he’s a fan of professional wrestling, but as it turns out, he’s a super fan. Quiz him on the Royal Rumble, I dare you. Much more related to the topic of today’s interview, Rhys is a strong supporter of premium plugin development as you’ll see in the interview after the jump and today he’s our WPOI (Word-Person of Interest).

Flight by Twitter: JavaScript Framework

Have you heard of Flight by Twitter? It’s a lightweight, component-based JavaScript framework that maps behavior to DOM nodes. Twitter uses it for their web applications. Built by the Twitter web team, Flight is distinct from existing JavaScript frameworks that you may be familiar with because this one doesn’t prescribe nor does it provide any particular approach to rending or sending dada to your web app: It’s agnostic to how requests are routed, which templating language you use or even if you render your HTML on the client or the server. While some web frameworks encourage developers to arrange their code […]

Matt Mullenweg gets named as one of the 30 Under 30 in the last Forbes and yet he was, originally, only half of the picture when WordPress was just a concept and idea. Mike Little, on the other hand, has not gotten nearly the same amount of press. According to his own bio he now maintains around 40 or so WordPress sites and continues to do development in a small boutique firm, Zed1: In 2003 he helped Matt Mullenweg start a little project which became known as WordPress. They initially worked together with an ever-growing band of volunteer developers to build and […]

You’ve probably already seen the notice in your dashboard but it’s worth noting that this 2.1.2 release houses not only 34 bug fixes but also 2 improvements, including the neat TED shortcode as well as filters for the Infinite Scroll feature that some blogs are using now. These filters, as reported by the team, allow themes and plugins to provide additional assets that should be loaded before a new set of posts is appended to the DOM. I’ve done a quick test of one of the most popular TED Talks of all time and it works just fine:

Happy Monday! Looks like I have a number of new plugins for today’s roundup. I’m a big fan of Spotify myself and was excited to see a plugin for it. It could be pretty cool to be able to share your playlists with people using WP Lazy Spotify. Maybe you like sharing the places you go to instead. If so, you might want to check out the FourSquare Checkins plugin. You guys see anything else from this list that jumps out at you?

Now well into 2013 (well, a month in, at least), and now that the new year time has passed and everyone is back from their holiday time away, I feel it’s time to take a look at what I, as a WordPress developer, hope to accomplish this year, as well as what I’d like to see this year in the WordPress community. In order to accurately forecast in which directions the WordPress community should shift in 2013, I feel it’s important for us to look back to the past few years and identify how the community and it’s perceived desires/needs […]
