Keeping My WordPress Blogroll in Sync With More Than One OPML Endpoint
I’m often the first to want to somehow modify the behavior of my own WordPress plugins. I also, however, prefer small plugins that do one thing well instead of bloated plugins that are pure hell to maintain. The solution? Hooks!

Micropub, Syndication Targets, and Crossposting to Mastodon
One of the many things Micropub offers, is a way to indicate which other platforms posts should be syndicated to. Here’s how I’ve made Micropub’s syndication targets work with the plugin I use to crosspost to Mastodon. Continue reading Micropub, Syndication Targets, and Crossposting to Mastodon →

What if you wanted to use Jetpack’s social menu feature and add links to your Mastodon and Pixelfed profiles—platforms Jetpack’s social menu doesn’t currently support—and not have them accompanied by an ugly, generic anchor icon? Continue reading Extend Jetpack’s SVG Icons →
Comments and Webmentions
While this blog doesn’t and likely never will support comments, I’ve recently implemented some support for incoming webmentions. Continue reading Comments and Webmentions →

A Post Format Filter Plugin
A while ago, I created a very small WordPress plugin that adds a Post Format filter to the WP Admin Posts Screen and—unlike the 7-year-old plugin it was inspired by—also allows filtering out ‘Standard’ posts. Continue reading A Post Format Filter Plugin →
Lightbox for WordPress
Long story short, I decided to try and create my own ‘Lightbox for WordPress’ implementation. After all, how hard can it be to load a few scripts and make sure everything’s properly initialized? Continue reading Lightbox for WordPress →
