Yesterday’s audit completed without much fanfare. I found a minor deprecation and notified the developer with a proposed fix. Today I’m focusing on building up my project profile pages and plan to spend some time outside.

Thursday
Website audit day! It’s been six months since I’ve audited this website and my blog. This is what I look for when auditing a WordPress site.
- Any plugin/theme not updated or tested by the developer since the last major/minor release.
- Or the plugin/theme not updated or tested by the developer in the last 12 months
If I find any of these are true I’ll pull a backup and test the site locally with Debug Bar as well as checking every template type manually with WP_Debug set to true.
Create a RSS Feed From An Indeed Job Search Query using Liferea
It’s been awhile since I last looked at Indeed.com, I’m happy to report RSS feeds still exist! Though they don’t promote them.

Create a RSS Feed From the Search URL
Perform a search on their platform and copy the URL
https://www.indeed.com/q-WordPress-l-San-Dimas,-CA-jobs.htmlreplace www with rss and use that URL in creating a new Liferea feed
https://rss.indeed.com/rss?q=WordPress&l=San+Dimas%2C+CA
That’s it. note that q- is for query and l- is for location. I’m sure there are other flags that can be used. I used this trick back in 2009 and it still works today. Additional tips can be found on Reddit.
