Announcing my first “released” plugin. Very simple, as I’ve even gone over it in the last few published posts.

1. Use WordPress to print a RSS feed for Eventbrite attendees
2. Turn your RSS feed into a shortcode

But I decided to release it in plugin form!

Download the plugin from WordPress.com!

Last week I wrote how to “Use WordPress to print a RSS feed for Eventbrite attendees“. It was pretty popular, but then I found myself in a place that was more annoying. Trying to incorporate that into a blog post or page.

Without having to download a plugin that will allow PHP to be executed inside a post, I would have to create a template file and use that. Which is what I did, and it works just fine. But for some reason I forgot all about shortcodes! With a

Today I was working on the WordCamp.LA site. I was trying to show the “attendee list” on the attendees page with out having to update the page every day.

If you’ve read the post entitled “WPCult for sale”, you’ll know whats going on around here. Until a sale is or isn’t made, I am going to be looking for some additional support. Are you interested in contributing to WPCult? Check out this page with more info and contact me or leave a comment below.

Not mentioned on the write for us page, I am going to be working on a way to share revenue with the adsense banner ads on post you’ve written. Look for that soon.

I’ve updated the site to the latest release of WordPress. 2.8.1 fixes many bug found in 2.8 and I finally was ready for the update. While everything went smoothly, I did have to update my theme a bit to run some of the additional widget area.

Using the old style dynamic_sidebar( 'Utility: Header' ); didn’t work any more, while just replacing the Title of the widget area with the ID fixed this problem: dynamic_sidebar( 'utilityheader' );.

I also came across a major error with one of my plugins. AsideShop just doesn’t work with and version WordPress

I’ve decided that I don’t have enough time to keep WPCult afloat. Please if your interested, contact me or leave a comment.
