I ran the WWWP5k this morning and there’s still time for you to sign up! Wait, how does that work? Any time between Monday, September 19th to Sunday, September 25th, travel a 5k anyway you’d like.

Using WordPress Child Themes
Last night I gave a short talk at the WordPress Louisville meetup. The idea of child themes had been mentioned tangentially during other talks, but I thought I’d explain them head-on for a few minutes. My slides (including the couple videos) are in the Cloudup stream below, along with a few links.
The monthly WordPress meetup is upon us! I’ll be talking child themes, Scott Gilbertson is going over image optimization, and we have another guest speaker showing off some professional WordPress creations. It’s a laid-back meeting with lots of opportunities for questions, discussion, and finding help for any problems you may have with your own projects. RSVP to […]
At last week’s WordPress Louisville meetup, I got the ball rolling on discussion for a WordCamp Louisville 2016. It got more interest than I would’ve guessed, and had several people all express a willingness to help. But no one seemed too interested in being a lead organizer. So I decided I’d wrangle that job, since […]

Recently the organizer of our WordPress Louisville meetup also put out a call for assistance. Our meetup on Tuesday, March 8th will be […]

It was a pleasure to speak on The New WordPress.com, “Calypso,” at our December meetup for WordPress Louisville. I didn’t do much by way of slides, but if you’d like to run through them again or would like access to some of the links I mentioned, I’ve got them after the jump.
A couple weeks ago we launched the New WordPress.com, a project we code-named “Calypso” at Automattic. If you’d like to hear more about Calypso, I’ll be speaking about it for tomorrow’s meeting of WordPress Louisville. The meeting starts at 6:15pm on Tuesday, Dec. 8th. Hosted by Mirazon Group at 1640 Lyndon Farm Court #102, Louisville, KY, 40223. […]
