Learn about some map stuff. I know I haven’t posted in a while, cause I’ve been really busy learning Ember JS! That said, I totally forgot to post this when I put it up and figured I probably should because people are actually watching it. I co-gave a talk on Leaflet.js/Mapbox.js for the WNC Web Technology Network a few...

WordCamp is officially underway! Sitting here teaching the newbs at our PreCamp really got me thinking – this is kickass. The organizers I’ve worked with have been awesome. We did something that not only sold out, but it’s running so smooth, and we’re going to have a really good time! My Talk…...

Sometimes Advanced Custom Field’s get_field(); and the_field();functions are enough for pages with a few custom fields, but for pages with lots more, or with really complex custom fields (like those using a repeater or flexible image field), you’ve got to use something with a little more firepower (and organization).
