My video from WordCamp Norrköping is now available on WordPress.tv:
I had a great time during my first stay in Sweden and I met so many talented developers, managers and various WordPress experts!...
I've presented the WordPress Code Architecture talk at WordCamp Netherlands this weekend in Utrecht and I got lots of positive replies from the local community members - thanks everyone for getting back to me! I've invested around 50 hours worth of time/effort in the presentation and I had to refactor it a few times until it gets to the p...
In case of a WordPress multisite with a specific setup trying to run autoupdates, you could add the following to prevent the WordPress autoupdates:
[php]
define( 'WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE', false );

I'm flying to WordCamp The Netherlands in 6 hours and I'm going to share my thoughts on the WordPress Code Architecture.

I'll be joining the fun at WordCamp Norrköping next week from Friday to Sunday:
I'll be helping with the Contributor Day over the weekend and I'll give my Debugging WordPress talk to the dev community there. If you're into WordPress development or interested in a secure and scalable managed WordPress hosting, meet me there and I'd be h...

$return = upda...

Last month Matt from Matt Report launched a great site called WP Mentor. Setting up a mentorship program for the WordPress community is an incredible idea so kudos to Matt who made it happen :)
If you can't see the value in that site, let me explain.

Today I found two brilliant posts that I would like to share with as many people as possible. While everyone is focused on what the market says or what seems natural, occasionally there are many obvious factors that are left unnoticed and could affect our entire life and career.
The first article that I've read was Morten's "WordPress is No...
I spent a few days last week working on a new plugin, trying to approach it from different angles and test a few development flows in a way that would possibly change the way I work.
