WordPress is a long running machine, and in most of my 11 year experience using it, have found it rather forgiving with old code and themes. With the 4.7 WordPress update, I have been seeing a problem with the Feed WordPress plugin, and despite a fix I found that cleared the error, tonight I found […]
This Tuesday marks the culmination of our second year of the UDG Agora project, maybe one of the best projects I have been ever part of for professional, collaborative, cultural, and human reasons.
