Most of my web development work is done through WordPress. I’ve built hundreds of little WordPress plugins, and dozens of scratch-made sites. At this point, I’ve modified nearly every corner of WordPress at some point since I started using it in 2009.

I’m a Sunday dweller at WordCamp, which means I procured a second pair of socks at the Yoast/Bluehost table. Which means I now have 1 pair of bluehost socks, and one pair of rainbow Yoast socks. Does this defeat their intent? Yes. Am I pleased that I have rainbow socks? Yes!
I started working on a very rough PoC earlier this week, and it helped me form an opinion on how I think the fields API could work. I think there’s some pretty good ideas here that would allow us to implement the fields API without disrupting WordPress backcompat.
This is a very early look at a potential solution to the fields API. This is not ready for actual review. I’m pushing early mostly so we can talk about some of the things in the PR and see if there’s significant problems. Approach The idea here is that there is a central singleton registry […]
I had a montage-ready trip around Washington DC with some colleagues.
This PR introduces a new document to the fields API that illustrates how to build a sidebar in the post settings section sidebar in the block editor. The goal of this PR is to help add visibility on one of the many ways in which a field is used inside WordPress.
I’m going to be at WordCamp US this year. This conference is well-timed because I’m starting to think about finding freelance work for the upcoming Winter season. I haven’t seen anyone in-person in WordPress since 2019! I can’t wait to see y’all!

It would be so nice to have a basic microblog plugin/app that turned your WordPress site into a microblog using a custom post type. I haven’t tried because I don’t know how to make mobile apps.
Also, I’ve said “I wish I knew how to make mobile apps” one time too many. Perhaps this winter will be the time I finally learn React Native.
I was featured on WP Tavern, where Nathan and I talked about how the Fediverse has transformed my approach to publishing content online.
This was a fun, and challenging project that made extensive use of Underpin. It felt good to utilize the library in this context, and it was exciting to see it reliably work in-action.
