For a recent project I wanted to do something a little different with the list of categories in the sidebar. Instead of simply listing each category, I wanted to list an excerpt from the last post in that category.
I wasn’t quite sure how to do this although I did know that I needed an array of the categories I wanted to use. After a little trial and error and asking a friend a question, I came up with the following piece of code.
Since it is almost 2011, people are asking me to change the copyright date at the bottom of their WordPress blog.
You can, however, do this automatically by using a piece of code that displays the current year. Once this is added to your template, you don’t need to manually update it again.
I am a huge fan of the Studiopress themes for WordPress and while I don’t use them on my this site, I use them on a number of client sites and on my Mary Shelley site and new Watch Doctor Who project.
Now through next Tuesday November 30th everything all Studiopress is 25% off. Every theme and even the Pro Plus All-Theme package. If you were thinking about buying Genesis and a child theme or even every theme, now is the time to do it.

Recently I was asked how to add the Facebook Like feature to a WordPress.com blog.
Since I write about the WordPress. org or self-hosted version, I had to look this up. My work with WordPress.com is mostly with moving people to self-hosted WordPress.
Since plugins can’t be added to WordPress.com blogs and the templates can’t be modified, I honestly didn’t think I was going to find a solution for this. (Well, some extras can be purchased but I’m not going to get into the intricacies of WordPress.com in this article.)
But, I did.
