I can help!

I have been using WordPress for many different websites for over 2 years.  I am familiar with the ins and outs, especially of maintaining and upgrading from your current version to the new more secure more stable versions that the WordPress guys put out for download.

I am very good at communicating problems and solutions in an easy to understand, clear way that will reduce the confusion and frustration that you have with your current tech-guy.  I will make sure that you know exactly what is going on with your site, before any major changes are made.

If you are in need of an upgrade, or just want some help with your current WordPress site, please contact me, WordPressHelp@gmail.com.

I will help you come up with a comprehensive upgrade plan, considering all of the factors for making sure the upgrade goes cleanly and smoothly.

Questions I will ask include:

1. Do you have any scripts running on your site, that rely on the WordPress database or functionality?
2. Do you have any plugins running on your current WordPress installation?
3. Do you have access to your server? (FTP, SSH)

I will also work with you on setting up a plan for how to go about upgrading your installation whenever a new version comes out.

If you are interested in help with your WordPress installation, please contact me so we can get your site safe, secure, and up to date: WordPressHelp@gmail.com

Other WordPress stuff I can help you with:

• Installing WordPress
• Posting services, you send the content, I’ll post it
• Using WordPress as your Content Management System
• Creating a Blog Ticker for another page on your website
• Creating external functionality based on WordPress for your website
• WordPress Training
• WordPress troubleshooting
• WordPress Plugin troubleshooting
• WordPress Plugin finding
• WordPress Plugin building
• WordPress Plugin fixing
• WordPress templating, Have a design and need it turned into a WordPress template?
• General WordPress database issues
• Hosting WordPress

Typically, if you are in need of new functionality, plugins, templating, or anything that would possibly make the public side of your website not 100% functional at all time for visitors, I will create a subdomain on one of my development servers and make all the changes there.  I will show them to you, and verify that they are working/looking 100% to your liking and specification, and then I will roll the updates to your live site.  I prefer to not work on live systems, until the product is tested and ready to go. This practice will reduce down time of your website and the frustration for you and your sites users.

Please contact me at WordPressHelp@gmail.com with any questions you may have.  Thank you!

An svn repository for storing wordpress plugins.

Look to your left, it should be on my left sidebar.

It is a new feature that is built into wordpress 2.3, kinda cool.

If you want it on your site go here: Wordpress Tag Cloud.

The most annoying part of it is, that fucking lolcats are one of the biggest tags on my site.  It makes me want to go through and retag a whole bunch of posts on my site.  I might do it too.
