#IEWP Presentation Prep

1978’s Commander Adama will be overseeing today’s advance preparation for an upcoming Introduction to Child Themes.

  • Introduction to a Child Theme
  • Stylesheet setup
  • Functions.php setup
  • Using the Template Hierarchy
  • Practical Examples

He’s added a few of his own priorities but I don’t think I’ll be much help in the field of fleet operations and logistics.

  • Where am I going to find cigars for Starbuck?
  • Writing a thank you note to Colonel Tigh isn’t really my expertise.
  • I personally like Apollo but I have no authority to promote anyone.
  • Lt. Athena’s classroom budget could use a bump.

#hackwpcli day

July 20 is #hackwpcli day and to celebrate this occasion I decided to only post to my personal blog via WP-CLI. As the day continues I’ll edit this post, make adjustments and try as best I can to live in my terminal for the entire day.

I only started using WP-CLI a few days ago and quickly realized it offers far more features than just interfacing with the blog. You can perform several tasks in the database, even install another instance of WordPress. I saw a listing of commands that will you set up new templates for themes and plugins. Many of these are only practical in a testing environment but anything that speeds up the creative process is worth a look.
