Apply Filters – A WordPress Development Podcast
August 23, 2013
Brad Touesnard and Pippin Williamson launched a new Podcast about WordPress Development. It is focused solely on Developing and Coding for WordPress, so they don’t have to “worry about annoying the non-developer listeners in the audience”, in their own words.
Here’s what they have to say about Apply Filters in the description:
Our discussions will include everything from development in WordPress core, plugins, and themes. We will be sharing much of our own experiences as developers that work fulltime in WordPress development, as well as bringing on guest developers to share their stories.
But don’t be afraid of that, i would consider myself more of a designer than a coder and still really enjoyed the first episode and looking forward to the next one.
Brad Touesnard is the founder of Delicious Brains, the company behind such great plugins as WP Migrate DB Pro, a plugin to easily migrate your WordPress databases.
Pippin Williamson is the head of Pippins Plugins and creator of many popular plugins such as Easy Digital Downloads or Restrict Content Pro. He also reviews plugins for the official WordPress.org plugin repository and contributes to WordPress core and bbPress.
I even learned something new right in the first episode when they talked about a new function get_attached_media(), which was introduced in WP 3.6. As the name suggests, it loads all media attached to a particular post, which always was a bit hacky to do in the past and it’s good to know there’s a better way by now.
If you’re into WordPress Development, whether as a Theme Designer or a Plugin Developer and want to learn a new trick or two, go check them out.
