Yesterday Peter Fleck and I led a “WordPress Geekout” at MinneWebCon 2011. It was lots of fun.
The format was open – that is, we asked the audience for topics and addressed WordPress successes, failures, and questions. To kick things off, Peter and I provided some potential discussion starters.
Topics that were brought up include:
- Mobile themes
- WordPress Multisite
- Analytics
- Posterous to WordPress
- Peter’s plugin rant 🙂
- Frameworks
- Drupal vs. WordPress (mostly shirked this one)
- Parent themes
- Local WordPress Resources
Overall the conference was great. There was talk over tater tots afterwards to include a series of workshops next year. This seems like a great idea!

I recently invested many hours trying to target and style a FacetWP taxonomy facet that uses hierarchy for display. It should be noted that you can use straight up CSS for some styling (and should use css wherever possible), but sometimes you need javascript to target parent elements and such. I thought I’d document the…
How to fix SpinupWP ballooning disk space issue
A site we host on Digital Ocean recently went down. It took me a lot of troubleshooting and digging before realizing that the issue was that our disk space was maxed out on Digital Ocean. The site in question needs ~20gb of space, so our 50gb server should be plenty. But alas, there it was…
Google Removed Our Business Listing – How we restored our biz to the Map and got our reviews back.
I was about to send an email to a potential customer pointing them to our 5-star Google Reviews via our Google Business profile (e.g. the Google Map), hoping this added information about our customers’ past experiences might help me close a deal. But when I checked the Google Reviews link, it was down. And after…
