StudioPress does not do auto-updates … Read more
By chance I just happened to discover what it was, so I think I’ll leave this here as it might help someone in the future. Some web pages, including an answer to this question suggest using the following code to prevent wpautop from running until after the shortcodes. Now I wasn’t able to fully understand … Read more
Custom fields are pretty much what it says in the name: custom. Most themes don’t display them in any real way, and they’re there for plugins and themes to do what is needed with them. Internally, there’s only two real things we’re talking about: Posts and postmeta. The posts are the main part of the … Read more
