Well this is the big change-over to the new pages. All of the old pages have been removed. I'm hoping I didn't create too many bugs, but this was a significant change so it's likely some things aren't working, or worse, may be missing. Please let me know. The big thing to note here is that I reworked the hyperlink controls for (I think) all ... Read More
Flint 0.3.8 Update
I am reeeeeeally happy with this release. Once again there was wisdom and motivation to reorganize the options pages and I think we have a set-up now that's going to carry Flint for the long-haul. Options are now organized by structural area including one page for Setup, one (future) page for Plugins and one page for Custom CSS. The structural ... Read More
Genesis Post Author Short Code Does Not Work Outside The Loop
Yep. This is true and you might be here because you'd like a solution. Look no further.

Move The Post Image Before The Post Title on Genesis Blog, Archive and Search Results Pages
If you're like me, you probably like your post titles to sit to the right of the post image (not on top of them) for the posts on your blog, archive and search results pages. The post image has to load first so that it can float to the left and let the post title and content wrap around it on the right. Unfortunately the post image loads, by ... Read More

Jetpack Like Buttons Not Loading?
Jetpack continues to grow on me, but this is a very complex plugin with lots of interactive functionality. Things are bound to get funky here and there. I noticed my Like buttons weren't loading on some of my older posts. I disabled all plugins (as usual) and even changed themes to identify whether it was an installation issue versus a theme ...
