Handy WP Cheat Sheet

Wordpress Cheat Sheet by Andy

Wordpress Cheat Sheet by Andy

Sometimes designers like me who are not very well-versed with PHP will get stuck in development hell where we just couldn’t figure out what snippet of code to use for a certain template file when designing a WP theme. It’s either shuttling between the Wordpress codex, mindlessly combing through the support forum or Google, or downloading other themes for reference. It’s a painful and troublesome process, as mind you – getting a PHP expression wrong will immediately throw up a whole other bunch of errors in your editor such that you can no longer use your WP theme editor. And this requires a FTP upload to replace the faulty file as the best fix.

Andy has make it less a hassle for people just like me – by sharing his version of a Wordpress cheat sheet. Basically, he has included the important and crucial PHP expressions that are needed for your to complete your WP theme (or to modify a theme the way you want). It’s easily understandable and Andy had gone through a great deal of trouble filtering out the not-so-important codes like the is_feed() function in the conditional comments section (so far only plugin coders will use it). It’s far more concise than the Wordpress codex (although it doesn’t hurt to go back for a more detailed explanation on how things work) and very easily understandable.

It has been tweeted and retweeted over and over again by the many designers I’ve been following on the tweety Twitter, so I guess it will be good that I share it with you too :)

Your name is required. Why?

  • So that I can address you personally (which I'm more than happy to do).
  • Everyone loves their name to be called, right? Nobody wants to be referred to as 'a certain someone' or Mr X (X-Men members aside).
  • If your post too much spam, your name will be imprinted on a personalised voodoo doll, completely free of charge. I'm just joking!

Your email is needed. Why?

  • Your email is, and will, never be given out to any third party under any conditions (except for people sneaking up behind me when I'm on WP admin).
  • So that I can contact you personally in case of certain issues that I wish to address personally.
  • If you post too much spam, I'll email the same spam you've posted 10 times back to you, completely free of charge.

You can always leave a personal URL behind

  • It can be anything - most people put their blog URL, their facebook page, their Twitter URL, their MySpace or etc.
  • I give love back by saying NO to no-follow. All of your webbie links are dofollows instead.

Twitter. Twitter. Twitter.

  • What is Twitter?: Twitter is a social networking and micro-blogging service that enables its users to send and read other users' updates known as tweets. Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140 bytes in length.
  • What is my Twitter ID?: To get a Twitter ID, you simply have to sign up for an account at Twitter.com. Your ID will be in the format of your profile's URL - http://twitter.com/[userid].

Hello Easter Egg hunter! You've discovered the magic of the Konami Code!

Yea. You probably know what the Konami code is before getting to this page. So now what? Here is a randomised YouTube video on my favourites list... which includes Rickroll, if you're luck enough to get it.

You are currently watching How to get up, eat breakfast and get ready for work in 5 minutes!. Loving it? You can even watch the video in its full screen glory :)
