Newsletter, WordPress & JQuery

February 11th, 2010

December newsletterIt’s February already and figured it’s about time I post our December newsletter. While I was in the ‘website’ mood I tackled the job of upgrading my WordPress from 2.6 to 2.9. They’re only 0.3 apart but the difference is huge. I also wanted to change our newsletter page to break away from the PDF plugin and keep the bots from snooping around. JQuery to the rescue! I dug around in some PHP/HTML/CSS/JQuery code and came up with an neat little onscreen reader. Give it a try and let me know what you think. JQuery is way cool!

Next up: Unga-Bunga.com facelift…

    Is this even english. All you translators are alike – you keep throwing in all these fancy foreign words to make us feel dumb. Just kidding. I’m sure it is fun keeping the bots away. ???

    What’s a “bot”?

    Bots is short for “Internet Search Engine Robots” run by companies like Google & Yahoo. These are computer programs that scour the internet continuously and record/index everything they find. Then when you search for “Wayne Dirks”, it gives you the link to http://www.unga-bunga.com.

    I like this solution. I need to do something very similar, and am curious how you got it all to work. Are you using a wordPress plugin for this? Would you be willing to share you code?
