Note: I will be conducting a sexy SEO title writing workshop in the near future. Goal We’re moving our documentation.1 We want to warn people of that fact just in case they’ve done something odd like bookmark a particular page, are referring to a link from an old email, etc. etc. The main DLINQ site […]

Stacking Images with CSS
I wanted to do a little example for a Gravity Forms workshop series I’m doing with Reclaim Hosting. The goal was to play off the Wonder Twins and their ability to change into various shapes. So I thought it’d be fun to propose a scenario and then have people propose different things for the Twins […]
Getting Relevanssi Search Working in WordPress Multisite
We shifted the DLINQ site to multisite a while back. It’s no obvious change for anyone viewing but it enables us to spin up different sites without the hassle of jumping between sites or installing the same plugins/themes in so many places. Clearly not rocket science but little things like that build up over time, […]

Same content, different navigation
In this imperfect world, I often get involved in project after decisions have been made and content has been created. This is one of those scenarios. What we have is an online textbook. It has a sidebar menu for each section and at the bottom of each page are buttons for the previous/next page. Pretty […]
Gravity Forms, Open Street Map API, and Leaflet JS
I’m sketching this one out because it’s a fun mix of things. I’m going to use Gravity Forms to accept submissions, the Open Street Map API will convert the address into latitude/longitude, and then we’ll display the data on a Leaflet JS map. I could have done it all in Google but I was irritated […]

JSON and the WP REST API
This post is supporting a bunch of tweets going out for pressedconf22 on March 24. Why? The basic idea is that WordPress is good for taking care of the mechanics of writing on the Internet. It deals with users, logins, uploading media, writing to the database, etc. On the other hand, WordPress themes can feel […]
Panopto API meets WordPress
Imagine you have some longer training videos but it’d be useful to provide discrete chunks. You might also want to provide some additional contextual information for particular video portions. Well, we wanted to be able to do that.1 This example uses the Panopto embed API and the Advanced Custom Fields repeater field to make this […]
Fancy Gravity Forms Site Creation with Teams
This is an odd one but I think worth writing down so I don’t forget and because it walks me through some patterns that are useful in both Gravity Forms and WordPress Multisite. You can see the whole thing here. The goal was to allow students to sign up and create profile posts on a […]

Send an Email on ACF Form Submission
The following code emails a particular person whenever an ACF Form is submitted. It’s a slight modification of the example at the bottom of this page. Since I’m dealing with three forms with different fields, I do some if statements to gather and append various fields if they exist. In this particular workflow, all these […]
Slack Bot! SLACK BOT!!
via GIPHY I don’t know why these two things are connected in my head but they are. So this is another one of those odd workflow posts. Here’s the scenario. I built a Slack App in their Bolt javascript SDK. That app has a command /courseupdate that triggers a modal with a selection and three […]
