    Removed Protected from Page Title – WordPress Password Protected Pages

    We are working with creating protected page reports for clients with a simple password protection, using the standard WordPress Password Protected functionality. Unfortunately, it adds “protected” to the page heading. This simple code, added to functions.php, removes “protected” from protected posts and pages sitewide: [php]/* Remove Protected from Title on Protected Pages */ add_filter(‘protected_title_format’, ‘blank’); […]

    WordPress Direct File Access on Secure Linux Installations

    I had a problem with the security on my Linux server set so nobody owned the Apache process but I owned the files on the server.

    Twitter/Facebook Style “Time Ago” Dates in WordPress

    I was recently working on a project where the client wanted “time ago” date stamps, such as Posted 23 minutes ago or Posted 1 week ago. For that project, we used the very nice jQuery Timeago script which automatically formats any date/time in a properly formatted tag to a timeago, kind of like this: [html]<abbr […]

    Employee Review/Appraisal Sample Phrases for Retail Stores

    One of the challenges in writing employee performance reviews is coming up with just the right words to describe each employee. Though you may have a few superstars and a few duds to deal with (and usually can come up with the right phrases for each), what kind of phrases are right for the other […]

    Implementing a Results-Only Work Environment

    Results Only Work Environment, or ROWE, is a management strategy adopted by Best Buy where employees are paid for productivity, not just activity.
