If you're building a system that stores names, and you genuinely need to know your users' legal names, don't do this: 🚫 name, preferred_name DO do this: ✅ name, legal_name

@carlhancock I spent some time trying to figure out what will work best for the monthly/yearly payments I'll be charging at @goCannaBiz and @gravityforms beat every other option I looked at by miles 💯
@JackEllis From the #laracon talk proposal I just submitted this morning :D
I new "silenced" configuration option has been added to Laravel Horizon. 🤫 This allows you to put jobs you don't *really* care about on a separate "silenced" tab so that your "completed" tab isn't bogged down with noise. Thanks @driesvints! 🔥
For what it’s worth, I chuckled at this tweet
PSA for those headed to State of The Word: Hosting company stickers on elevator door jokes stopped being funny 4 years ago.
Anyone have any tips for dealing with the murderous rage that comes from dwelling on all the criminal endangerment that officials are engaging in with by leaving COVID unmitigated and unabated and minimizing concerns when they are raised? Rough morning for me today...
@arniepalmer I bet for the bulk of plugin developers, nothing has changed.
@nicksdot @gonedark @enunomaduro @ericlbarnes That does not make sense IMHO. Just make curly brackets optional when body is empty 🙂
@ShawnHooper @Kevmarmol_CT Seems to be quite a few great folks here already! Thanks for the rec :)
@Kevmarmol_CT I couldn’t find one but if anyone starts or finds one can you tag me? mastodon.online/@claitusis
Is there a good passwordless-login plugin for WordPress, that either uses a one-click login links or an OTP-over-email system? Building a website that's mostly going to be used by people aged 55+, and this is a specific issue they want to solve. No one remembers passwords.
As a web developer, I've had hundreds of requests from marketing folks to add snippets for various 3rd-party platforms. But, I've NEVER had them ask me to remove one. There are so many unused/no-longer-used tracking scripts just slowing down the web for no reason.
Sometimes with freelancing, you just get lucky. Appreciate those situations, show gratitude, and move on to the next difficult task.
Meant to post this in here. Would love to know how others are working with their own version control concepts in Full Site Editing and the Block Editor.
As I’m working more in Astra, Kadence, and Frost, I am finding myself building less and less locally with #WordPress. One area we need to figure out is the best process for creating new designs without messing up existing sites since it’s all housed in the database and not code.
@devnic_ I would advice to read laravel.com/docs/9.x/conta… first. It explains how the service container works with the service providers. However, most Laravel projects use Service Locators through facades. I'm more of a DI guy, but for Laravel you can probably best to stick to facades.
Finished migrating to Vue 3 + Vite, or as I fondly describe it, writing an entirely new application. AMA.
Hi guys, It’s less than 2 month I picked up Laravel tutorials. Now I’m building a web app with Laravel. I’ve covered majority chapters in laravel and I believe I’m good to go. 🤗 #laravel
