Thanks Fred, I've actually been thinking about brushing the dust of this article and rewriting it. Were you initially more interesting in achieving a current state using jQuery or PHP?

kevinleary.net : Add TinyMCE to WordPress User Profile Pages in WordPress 3.3

Tue, 17 Jan 2012 17:11:03 +0000

On second thought, it's probably even better to apply all of the_content() filters to a rich text bio. The above example uses apply_filters() rather than wpautop() to do this. wpautop() is used as a filter on the_content()

kevinleary.net : Add TinyMCE to WordPress User Profile Pages in WordPress 3.3

Tue, 17 Jan 2012 17:08:35 +0000

Hi Michael, Good point, this can be passing the $description through the wpautop() function before displaying it in your theme. I've updated the example above to include this.

Tue, 17 Jan 2012 16:58:36 +0000

Hey Lars, It should work just fine in a child theme, provided that the child and parent theme enqueue all of their JavaScript properly using the wp_enqueue_script() function.

kevinleary.net : Faster WordPress: Moving JavaScript Files to the Footer

Mon, 2 Jan 2012 15:54:17 +0000

Dropping these into functions.php only should do the trick. The numbers above correspond to the priority parameter of the add_action() function: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add... They control the order in which the changes are loaded, in this circumstance you should not need to change them. If you're still having issues you want to try the JavaScript to Footer plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/footer-javasc...

kevinleary.net : Build a Hulu Content Slider with jQuery Cycle & CSS3

Good catch Aaron, I've made some changes to cycle.js (http://www.kevinleary.net/wp-samples/jquery-cycle-sliding-content/cycle.js?v=019283921) that have fixed the issue. The demonstration above and on the separate example page are working on resize now.

kevinleary.net : Add Custom Meta Fields to Media Attachments in WordPress

Wed, 28 Dec 2011 15:35:34 +0000

Good question Shawn, Those values are controlled entirely by JavaScript at the moment through these files: wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wpeditimage/js/editimage.dev.js wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wpeditimage/editimage.html I can see a way to add fields here, but unfortunately it would involve editing core files and would not be preserved during an upgrade. I've just submitted a bug to the WordPress Trac about this: http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/19678

kevinleary.net : Build a Hulu Content Slider with jQuery Cycle & CSS3

Wed, 30 Nov 2011 14:09:41 +0000

Hi Juan, That's a nice feature idea. I've just added an additional "before" callback function to the cycle plugin that will hide the previous arrow on the first slide, and the next arrow on the last slide. This has been included in the demo and code above. If you don't want the slideshow to continuously loop set the "nowrap" option to 1.

Tue, 22 Nov 2011 21:37:21 +0000

Hi Matt, I just sent you an email, it sounds like this could easily be solved with something like this: $decoded_html = html_entity_decode( $item->get_description() ); echo $decoded_html;

kevinleary.net : Customizing WordPress Admin with CSS & JavaScript

Sun, 13 Nov 2011 20:08:50 +0000

admin.css is a file you add to your theme or plugin, so it's independent from the WordPress core and therefor updates.
