A New Workflow

After an interesting discussion on twitter with @curtismchale, @ericmann, @mikeschenkel, and @rarst I have decided its time to have another look at “local development”. The basics so far have been the following downloads: Tortoise SVN Git WampServer PhpStorm Tortoise SVN and Git are for the version control aspects of this project; WampServer (since I am [...]
BNS Theme Add-Ins 0.1 Live
Sometimes I look for any reasonable excuse to post; this one is just to hard to pass up as a new “status” post.
The following is from one of the newer Plugin repository enhancements: an email notification when an update is made to a plugin you contribute to.

Long story short: the first iteration of “BNS Theme Add-Ins” is now available on the WordPress Extend Plugin repository.
BNS Theme Add-Ins
Although it started more as a “Mallory-Everest” idea, I just submitted to the WordPress Extend Plugins repository the “BNS Theme Add-Ins” plugin. My 11th submission!
It is a collection of functions and code that can be used to extend the capabilities of WordPress Parent-Themes and Child-Themes. Current functions:
* Add BNS Extra Theme Headers
* Add BNS Child-Theme Version Control
* Add BNS Readme Menu Item
* Add BNS Changelog Menu Item
* Add BNS Child-Theme TextDomain and i18n (translation) support
Although I did offer to release each of the above functions individually, how I optimized this initial release (read: alpha version) requires the code to remain intact.
I usually make these announcements on BuyNowShop, but this plugin quickly became very special as I utilized more advanced code techniques as well as core functionality I have not implemented in the past; and I just didn’t want to wait until it get subversion access.
Besides, this seemed like a great “Aside” post to make.
Enjoy!
