Genesis Multisite Discussion

A few days ago, myself and a few others in the Genesis community had a great discussion on multisite. We discussed how to install it, how it works, some do’s and don’ts. It was the first discussion that we ever had and I think it came out great! You can check out the full post by Alan Smith and watch the discussion as well on his site: WordPress Multisite Hangout.

We’re going to have another hangout next week live on youtube discussing security on WordPress. If you have any questions or any ideas for discussions, make sure you check out the Genesis Community on Google + and let us know. Here’s the direct link: Genesis Community Events. Enjoy!

So a few months ago I released the Genesis Sandbox 1.0 as a way to quickly start developing websites. It was a simple child theme that I modified to make it simple for me to jump into projects for clients.

The theme was a perfect starting point.

Fast Forward 2013, a few people heard about it and liked it. Now there’s an all new version developed by @wp_smith (Travis Smith) and it is freaking awesome!Read More

SureFire CRM/Project Management – Genesis Sandbox, WP-Types, and WP-Views

These past couple days I’ve been looking for something to organize my clients, projects, and agreements. I’ve researched a bunch of different solutions and just couldn’t find one that suited me. They were either too expensive, too robust, or too simple.
