The WordPress Admin panel, or the “brains” of your WordPress install, is a key place, and probably the place you’ll spend the majority of your time on, rather than the site itself. It’s written very smart, and things make sense where they are. It’s generally located at www.mysite.com/blog/wp-admin (assuming you installed your blog into /blog, [...]

As the web becomes more and more saturated with people who want websites or blogs, it’s becoming easier as a web-dev guy to help people who aren’t HTML savvy get a website. While WordPress is designed as a blogging tool, it’s so much more than that. As a designer, I can build the site on [...]

Ever since I started using a dual monitor set up at home (two 19″ Samsung LCD monitors), I can’t live without two monitors. When I started my new job here, they gave me a fairly beat up old laptop. Which is fine, I can cope with 15″ to look at. The bad news was the [...]
