How to participate in WordPress development

wordpress development
If you want to participate in WordPress development the first thing you need to do is get the latest testing version of WordPress. Mark Jaquith had posted a cheat sheet for how to get the latest WordPress development code for Linux and Mac users. In the Follow The White Rabbit blog post Westi (if you are a WordPress developer I recommend following him on social media sites and his blog) has written a walk through for downloading the latest version of WordPress (for developers). The WordPress version you would download using this method should be used only a testing or development server. Never use this version of WordPress for a live website. For the live website you need to download the stable version of WordPress from WordPress.org.

If you want to learn about the history of WordPress releases there is an page on WordPress that is dedicated to the history of WordPress with its roadmap.

It is pretty easy tutorial and I'm going to get started. Look out for more details as I would be sharing my journey of becoming a master of WordPress.

Starting WordPress plugin development

Media_httpcdnpelfusio_dcqcc

WordPress usage has taken a huge leap in the past few years. One of the feature of WordPress is that you can customize WordPress as per your requirements by using existing plugins or creating your own plugins.

If you want to develop WordPress plugins then the resource at http://pelfusion.com/know-how/20-tutorials-to-develop-wordpress-plugin/# is the right place to start.

However, I would like to add that you need have a good understanding of HTML, CSS and PHP. You also need to know how WordPress works. If you have that knowledge then you are ready to go.

WordPress SEO - internal linking WordPress plugin

One of my favorite SEO plugin for WordPress is link to post plugin. The link to post plugin allows you to create links to other posts and pages from within the post or page editor simply and intuitively. With WordPress 3.0 the functionality of the link to post plugin has been added as a core feature which, is sort of official, reconginition of the popularity and the usefulness of the plugin which must is coveted recognition of Julien Appert (http://www.julienappert.com) and AJcarea (http://www.ajcrea.com/).

If you have not used WordPress 3.1 extensively then you might have missed the edition as it takes time to notice since the addition does not bring about a change the UI (user interaction) screens of WordPress. I have created a slideshare presentation of the how to add links to post using WordPress version 3 or above

The website has a number of affiliate links as well which are cleverly hidden. To know more about how this can done look out for a future post on this blog.
