Yesterday I spent a bit of time becoming better familiar with how WordPress menus work. Particularily how they are stored in the database and how PHP’s max_input_vars setting can come into play. While helping a friend try to troubleshoot and figure out some performance issues on her WordPress site I also went in to addContinue reading “WordPress Menus and PHP max_input_vars”

The Go-Giver
Recently I was recommended a short book to read called The Go-Giver by Bob Burg and John David Mann. Seeing as I was going to be spending some time on a plane I thought it would likely make a good choice as something to get through quickly while traveling. The book is written in theContinue reading “The Go-Giver”
Wapuu Family
I posted this originally internally at work, but it is cute so I thought I’d share it here as well. The kids love Wapuu almost as much as I do. My newest little nephew now fits into his Wapuu onesie better so we figured we’d get a picture with everyone in their shirts. So weContinue reading “Wapuu Family”
WordPress.com 101
The last time I spent a whole university class up in front was in 2008 when I was a student in a C++ programming class. The assignment was to first learn then teach the rest of my classmates about linked lists. This time instead of software engineering I was trying to engineer happiness by givingContinue reading “WordPress.com 101”
BlogJam 2015
When I first found out about the BlogJam conference that was being planned for Halifax I was very excited. Reading about many of my co-workers who travel to WordCamps and other conferences related had me a little envious. Just the lead up to the conference is what lead me to discover the new WordPress meetupContinue reading “BlogJam 2015”
Love What You Do
It’s coming up on the one year mark from when I started my Trial with Automattic and I’ve been working full time here for about ten months now. Looking back on my past jobs and places I’ve worked I really don’t remember a time where at this point I wasn’t looking for other opportunities. NotContinue reading “Love What You Do”
Public Speaking
Like many, or most people public speaking is a bit of a phobia of mine. It’s not one that I can’t get over, but certainly not something I enjoy. It’s been quite a while since I’ve had to get up in front of people but that’s going to change soon. Over the past little bitContinue reading “Public Speaking”
Jen has Started Blogging
Over the years I’ve tried a few times to get Jen to start blogging. Maybe if I had ever kept it up for a solid amount of time myself she would have been more inclined to start. Maybe this time I’ve kept with it long enough that she’s giving it a shot. She’s still workingContinue reading “Jen has Started Blogging”
First Halifax WordPress Meetup
Tonight I attended my first ever WordPress meetup. When I found out that Alison and Tara were organizing a meetup in Halifax I was very excited. Seeing co-workers going to meetups and WordCamps talking with others who are either passionate about, or wanting to know more and learn about WordPress had me a bit envious.Continue reading “First Halifax WordPress Meetup”
Getting Out and Being Social
This is something I struggle with. Working from home I am always interacting with co-workers and other people, but it is all online. As a family we go and do lots with other families and this is wonderful. Our group of friends are a great group and I always have a lot of fun withContinue reading “Getting Out and Being Social”
