WordPress Excerpts Empty but Post Has Content

Mar 08, 2019

After running the WordPress export/import tool to move a blog, I noticed the excerpts were not showing up on the blog archive pages. Usually, WordPress will auto-generate an excerpt for posts if a custom excerpt does not exist. The problem was that the export/import tools were leaving whitespace characters (tabs, spaces, line breaks) in the […]

Gravity Forms Pricing Options – Change Relative/Dynamic Price to Static Option Price

Jan 16, 2019

In Gravity Forms (a popular WordPress forms plugin), the Pricing Fields > Option output shows the option price when the form loads.

Joomla 2.5 Component Categories Sub-Nav

Dec 21, 2012

I recently found Joomla’s feature to easily add custom component-specific nested Categories. It makes for a quick way to create categories similar to what is used in com_content and an interface to manage those categories without having to build it all manually. You can use JForm to easily add a select menu of your custom […]

Joomla! 2.5 Toolbar Popup Link Icon

Sep 08, 2012

Today I needed to add a new toolbar button to a custom Joomla! component. In the past, I’ve used a more convoluted method of overriding the submitbutton() (or Joomla.submitbutton) JavaScript function and triggering the modal popup manually, but stumbled upon a better solution.

Thoughts on Coda 2 (initial release)

Jun 01, 2012

I should start out by mentioning that I’ve been a big fan of Panic for years – I’ve used Transmit since Mac OS 9 days, and Coda since its initial release. Since then, Coda has been my primary web development application. I should also mention that I’m not someone who avoids change, particularly in the […]
