As part of the ongoing saga of duplicating content, we need a way to see that a particular post is a duplicate and living in a particular module. The easiest way to do that is to add something in the title. Organically, the authors started adding it like Item Title (Module). Now we don’t want […]

Filtering the Post Link
There have been a number of occasions when I’ve wanted to write posts but have them link to another site rather than the post on the WordPress site. It happened most recently with media coverage for a research project. It didn’t seem worth building a whole custom post type for the media coverage. Instead I […]
Semi-fixed bottom navigation
This is another solution for the social science research site. Each fix seems to spawn a new minor, yet complex, problem. It’s easy to see how some web site costs get out of control. Hopefully this one will be the end of things. In our previous episode, we made a fixed bottom navigation to standardize […]
Gravity Forms to Events Calendar Pro (no approval needed)
A request a ways back to see Gravity Forms to Events Calendar Pro had a problem that I wasn’t aware of. It required being approved or updated to make it live. I didn’t realize that because we wanted to approve all the events before they went live. Here is another version that’s a bit more […]

Inexact Copies
Back in April I posted about trying to deal with a really specific problem. The authors wanted to be able to include page content in other page progressions but only wanted to edit the content in one place AND they wanted little pieces of it to be different. Back then, I did some odd stuff […]
Finding a Lost Site in a Massive Multisite
In WordPress Multisite there are some scenarios where a site with a custom domain can get lost. There is the central place in network admin where you can assign custom domains but you can also do it at the site level. If it’s done at the site level, it’s possible for that site to become […]
Parallel Practice: Gravity Forms Pattern
Round of the parallel practice tool was done in Google Forms/Sheets. Things went pretty well and an internal award was given to help take the project to the next level. I did a bit of early sketching with the form a little while ago. This week, I’ve been working on it more diligently and I […]
Adding Gravity Form Merge Field Modifiers
Gravity Forms does all kinds of nice things with merge fields. These mail-merge-like chunks make it really easy to create content, send custom messages, or redirect people using the data submitted via forms. When your plain data doesn’t do what you need, there are a number of useful built in modifiers. I’ve mainly used the […]
Gravity Forms to Events Calendar Pro
I did some work making Gravity Forms create Events Calendar events back in 2017. Things have gotten easier with the Gravity Forms Advanced Post Creation plugin. I used this on the Anti-Racism site and forgot to document it. First set up your form so it gets you the data you need. You’ll need something like […]
Changing the Order of Fields on Gravity Forms Mobile View
This is one of those odd needs that maybe no one will ever have but I think it’s worth documenting because you can do it. Seeing possibilities helps change how you think. While this scenario might be unique, you might have a different odd need that’s close enough that this inspires some different thoughts around […]
