February Special: 15% off All Services (I Love My Clients)

Weekend Love (by Always Be CoOL)

February is the month for love (and slush and being really tired of winter), so I have decided to take 15% off ALL my services for the entire 28 days!

Do you need an upgrade, template customizations, or WordPress 2.7 features added to your theme? How about a custom design, social networking advice, or training so you can do it all yourself? You can contact me via any of the methods listed to the right or use my contact form.

Yep, absolutely everything is 15% off for the entire month of February. You don’t have to have the work done in February but it must be scheduled during February.

And you never know, my prices might be going up in March.

(Anti) Social-Lists 2/1/09

Happy February! And welcome to the first installment of (Anti) Social Lists in February 2009. I feel like I’ve been checking out a lot of sites recently but I don’t seem to have that much to offer. I found more sites to offer as the week drew to it’s close. I have had a terrible cold so it’s possible that my recollection of what I’ve been doing differs from reality. Anyway, enjoy!

Since we have already added the post class to our template, styling the sticky post only requires a little bit of CSS in the style sheet template.

WordPress 2.7 Post_Class Template Tag and Sticky Posts

message for you sir (by Ryan Grove)

On Monday I showed you where the sticky post setting was. Maybe you already knew but I had quite a time locating it and thought I might not be the only one having this problem.

So, you used that setting to make a post sticky and now you’re wondering why it isn’t working properly. Well, you have to add some code to your Main Index template.

WordPress 2.7 includes a new function called Post Class, which makes it easier to style certain parts of the theme. One of the classes used with post class is sticky. So, the template doesn’t know that a sticky post even exists until this new code is added.

A sticky post in WordPress is one that stays at the top of the page no matter what gets posted after that. This is useful for a post that you want to highlight or for an announcement.

Way back the best way to make a post sticky was to fudge with the date – I would make it a date way in the future so it would stay the top post.

Then the WP-Sticky plugin was created, which allowed me to make a post sticky and gave me some control over styling. For example, if the sticky post is an announcement, I don’t want the date to be included because then it looks like a regular post.
