Check WordPress Core Files for Hacks

Over the last 2 years I’ve worked on literally dozens of client WordPress projects. Many of these projects have been the simple cut the theme and go. Wham-Bam Thank You, Pay me, projects. The rest have been like normal projects. Tons of code written, different developers between phases of the site, custom plugins, themes from hell with very dynamic functionality. I hate to admit but in my early days exposed to WordPress, I found it easier to make mode direct to the core files before writing a plugin to extend the core functionality. This of course creates a problem because I don’t always remember what changes I’ve. continue...

Lucky me. Mindshare closes the office doors for the last week of the year. This on top of getting two weeks vacation to take during the year. What a fantastic company to work for. So this week I’m off and getting bored. Sondra’s family came to town and celebrated Christmas. It was short and sweet. They have all left now and Sondra has gone back to work. So for th emost part I’m on my own during the day. Her mom is also home. so I try and spend my time doing things. At the moment I’m sitting at Mozart’s Coffer house on Lake Austin Blvd. http://www.mozartscoffee.com/.

Last week I posted an email to the wp-hackers list asking why in the infinite wisdom of the developers doesn’t the File Upload area on the Posts and Pages editor follow the same functionality as the Custom Fields, Post Excerpt. My point is the File Upload section is huge and take up a lot of screen. Screen area that is not used for every post. The reply from the group was other plugins that will remove the File Upload area entirely. Not really what I wanted. There was a whole other thread on how questions like this should be directed to the WordPress community forums and not the wp-hackers list. But that is a whole other rant. continue...
