Creating blog posts in WordPress.com programatically
One of my projects, Unbreach, has a database of more than 600 breaches. These come from haveibeenpwned and they are composed of some metadata, a one-paragraph description, and an image. I wanted to improve these with more content, links to articles, tweets, videos, and some content of my own. I decided that a good way…

WordPress.com new editor handles titles right
I like my text properly formatted and with pretty much every CMS editor out there I always have some confusion when it comes to titles. The post or page has a title and then sections inside it also have titles and they are second level titles. On most CMS you have the option of titles…

Finally happy with the creation of a web site
In the past, I never managed to build a web site and feel happy with the process. Every time I finished building a web site I would have a list of things to never do again. Until now! So, I thought I’d share. First, by web site I mean content, like watuapp.com or screensaver.ninja, I…

In an effort to increase the quality of this blog I’ve engaged a couple of friends in reviewing my posts before they go out. I’m after typos, grammar and also “Are you serious? are you going to publish that crap?” or “You are going to get into trouble with that”. The best way to do…

Increasing views without changing content
Six days ago I’ve switched from Plone to WordPress, again. I want to take my blog and web site into a new direction so I wrote a bunch of drafts. But something unexpected happened. It already got a new life and I only published one new post (which wasn’t very popular either). Analytics says that…

ReStructured Text on WordPress
I am coming from the Plone world. My web site used to be Plone and various website I still maintain are still Plone-based. In Plone, one of the formats to write text is ReStructured Text (RST); and Matt has convinced me it is the right way… or at least, one good way. But in the…
