WordPress.org Theme Review Process is Broken

December 14, 2011 – 11:51 am

Update: The Eru­dite 3.0.2 is now live on WordPress.org. I’ve already crit­i­cized the WordPress.org Theme Review process when it first launched. Things seemed to be improv­ing, but either the team is poorly orga­nized, severely under-powered, or both. The Eru­dite 3.0 has been in review for 3 months, 3.0.2 since Sept 28. The review ticket was assigned […]

FontFriend 3.2 Released: Now With More Google

June 6, 2011 – 10:28 pm

When I released Font­Friend 3.1, I men­tioned that Google Web Fonts didn’t have a proper API, mak­ing things dif­fi­cult. They still don’t have a pub­lic API, but on Thurs­day I was given “trusted tester” access to the new API. It won’t look that much dif­fer­ent, but there’ll be a few fonts work­ing now that weren’t […]

FontFriend 3.1 Loves Google Webfonts

May 13, 2011 – 12:07 pm

I’ve had a num­ber of requests to bet­ter inte­grate Google Web­fonts into Font­Friend. They keep adding all these great fonts that any­one can use for free, and should be part of a tool like Font­Friend. The trou­ble was that they didn’t have an API, mak­ing it dif­fi­cult. More on that later, because I got it […]

FontFriend 3.0 Released

April 10, 2011 – 6:46 pm

I’m pleased to announce the imme­di­ate release of Font­Friend 3.0, the Type­kit inte­gra­tion edi­tion. Invok­ing the book­marklet on any Typekit-enabled page will automag­i­cally throw all the fonts in your kit into the cus­tom fam­i­lies list. I’ve set up a demo page with Font­Friend embed­ded and a big Type­kit kit. My main imag­ined use-case for this feature […]

The Erudite 2.7 Released

June 20, 2010 – 12:58 pm

Word­Press 3.0 was released last week (and there was much rejoic­ing). I received a few bug reports about my inte­gra­tion with the new nav menus — essen­tially if you didn’t have a nav menu in use yet, you’d see a weird extra box in your main menu area. I also did the long-overdue task of combing […]
