I’m not aware of any besides michel fortin’s WP text flow diagram from a few years ago: http://michelf.com/weblog/2005/wordpress-text-flow-vs-markdown/ That said, there were recent talks about writing some kind of plugin dev’s companion reference with the full flowchart of the WP hooks and API.

WordPress is very… utilitarian I suppose. People tend to use and know as much as they need to get things done. Curiously that tends to exclude the low level core load process. It doesn’t help the situation that (unlike modern frameworks) WordPress doesn’t use a complete routing logic for everything. Front-end is governed by rewrite/permalinks, … Read more
The difference is really no difference in regular (single install) WordPress. It’s in a multisite install (network) where there is a difference. In multisite, only a Super Admin (who can manage everything on the network) has delete_users capability, while an “admin” (who would own/manage a single site) can remove_users from their site, but cannot delete … Read more

So in … Read more
When I added the drawbacks to the Codex, I was mainly thinking of using the ‘request’ filter as an alternative to query_posts(). That filter is only run for the main query, so that solves the problem with ‘pre_get_posts’, which fires for every query. The downside is that you don’t have access to query flags like … Read more
I Use a much faster and easier way to create a local copy of the codex without installing a local server and without installing copy of mediawiki, its called ScrapBook which is a Firefox extension, that helps you to save Web pages and manage the collection. Key features are lightness, speed, accuracy and multi-language support. … Read more
Probably you are looking for JavaScript™ for Acrobat® API Reference. This reference should be the most complete. But, as @Orbling said, not all PDF viewers might support all of the API. EDIT: It turns out there are newer versions of the reference in Acrobat SDK (thanks to @jss). Acrobat Developer Center contains links to different versions of … Read more
Doxygen or Sandcastle help file builder are the primary tools that will extract XML documentation into HTML (and other forms) of external documentation. Note that you can combine these documentation exporters with documentation generators – as you’ve discovered, Resharper has some rudimentary helpers, but there are also much more advanced tools to do this specific … Read more
