This is a simple web application used to make an options page for your WordPress theme or plugin. It provides the PHP code that you can copy paste into your theme functions or plugin base files. I wrote this for myself to cut down on the number of times I have to repeat work so I decided to share it.
I wrote a little application to generate the PHP code needed to add custom meta boxes to your WordPress theme. You input the title, what post types you want it to show up on and where and it generates the PHP code for you. You also have the option of setting the prefix and adding some descriptive text under the title. It’s located here or you can click the “WP Tools” button in the nav bar.
The agency I work for recently converted a client with numerous, restaurant sites over to a WordPress multisite install. When we set it up to work on a staging server we used a “staging” subdomain for each individual site. The default functionality is to work on a root install of WordPress but this wasn’t going to work when the site that served as the root for the WordPress install was also installed on a “staging” subdomain.
Something that goes without saying is that the load time of a page is important. Google takes load time into consideration with it’s indexing algorithems. It’s not as big of a consideration as say, relevance, but it matters. In the grand scheme of things, what do a few seconds matter? Turns out they could matter quite a lot.
Moving all of your JavaScript files to the footer to delay parsing is a good way to speed up the render time of your website. If you want to speed it up even further you can load the scripts asynchronously so that the page load itself isn’t dependent on your scripts having been downloaded and cached at all.
