			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Spotify is slowly growing in popularity, thanks mostly to its seamless integration with Facebook. They were very creative in how they were going to market, and requiring a Facebook account was genius for promotion. The single reason I found out about Spotify was seeing my friends updates that they were listening to this new software. How do you turn that feature off if you don&#8217;t want people to see what you are listening to? Easy. Upon installation, just uncheck the box &#8220;Show what I listen to on Facebook&#8221;. Hope that helps!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With 2011 coming to a close, I wanted to point out one major web design trend that will definitely be tied to this year. That trend? Banner&#8217;s coming from behind the webpage. Yes this gives it more depth, but it is now highly overused and will be gone as fast as gradient shadows left us years ago. Here are just a few screen shots I&#8217;ve collected in the last couple days as I&#8217;ve browsed the web.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Recently I had project where I had to take Vimeo links and have the videos pop up in lightbox, and in this case I chose PrettyPhoto. I built the site in WordPress and used custom fields as a place the client could post their Vimeo links. For some reason though, the links were turning into iFrame embeds which was throwing all sorts of errors. I couldn&#8217;t for the life of me figure out why this was happening. I tried adjusting code in prettyPhoto, disabling scripts, disabling plugins, everything! My frustration was growing and I called it a day. </p>
<p>As I was walking to the bus I called my fellow developer friend and explained the problem. He told me, &#8220;Did you check the WordPress Auto-Embed to make sure it was turned off?&#8221; OH. MY. GOSH. I couldn&#8217;t believe I had missed that. It might sound stupid, but sometimes the solution is easier than we think. The moral of the story is that we have to explore the easiest solutions first, then move on to the more complex conflicts.</p>
<p>If you were wondering where this was in the WordPress Admin, it is under &#8220;Settings > Media&#8221;. Just uncheck the box like I&#8217;ve done here. Hope this saves somebody some time!</p>

<p>I made a couple additions like adding the actual scroll-pane class and the ( delta * 30 ) to speed up the scroll pace.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So I was looking for a plugin that would allow me to have multiple content blocks with the WordPress admin. If I couldn&#8217;t find one, I was going to create one myself. Fortunately for my upcoming work schedule, I found one by <a href="http://plugins.trendwerk.nl/">Trend Werk</a>. I want to give them a special thanks because their plugin is AWESOME and provides exactly what I needed. I will definitely be looking into their other plugins because this one is great. You can download it through their website <a href="http://plugins.trendwerk.nl/documentation/multiple-content-blocks/">http://plugins.trendwerk.nl/documentation/multiple-content-blocks/</a>.</p>
<p>So onto the reason for this blog post. The only thing that I didn&#8217;t like about the plugin was that their was no settings where I could disable the WYSIWYG. So I went dumpster diving into the code and made a few edits to fix this. Go in the plugin files and find &#8220;multiple_content.php&#8221;. Go to lines 134-149. Here is the original code:</p>
<div class="geshi no php">

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>WordPress Conditional Tags not working? This might be the problem.</h3>
<p>Today I ran into the problem of WordPress Conditional Tags not working properly. I wrote the following:</p>
<p><code><br />
        <?php<br />
        if ( is_page( 'press' ) || '2' == $post->post_parent )  {<br />
          wp_list_categories('title_li=&#038;include=1015,1016');<br />
        } elseif ( is_category( array( 1014, 1015, 1016 ) )) {<br />
          wp_list_categories('title_li=&#038;include=1015,1016');<br />
        } else {<br />
          wp_list_categories('title_li=&#038;exclude=1,69,1014,1015,1016,1743');<br />
        }<br />
        ?><br />
</code></p>
<p>This kept returning false. I didn&#8217;t understand why it was doing this! Turns out, the conditional statements need to be outside the loop. Still perfecting my PHP skills, I did not pick up on this right away. So the code above I had in my sidebar.php file, and once I moved the sidebar outside of the loop, it worked! Here is what my final solution looks like:</p>
<p><code><br />
<?php<br />
/*<br />
Template Name: Apple and Orange<br />
*/<br />
get_header();<br />
get_sidebar(); //where my conditional statement lives<br />
$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;<br />
			$args = array(<br />
				'category_name' => 'apple-and-orange',<br />
				'paged' => $paged,<br />
				'posts_per_page' => 6<br />
			);<br />
			query_posts($args);<br />
if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();<br />
?><br />
</code></p>
<p>Hope this helps somebody else save some time!</p>

Along with the skillful designers, they have also implemented a great new <a title="Twitter Link" href="http://www.twitter.com" target="_blank">Twitter</a> integration into the show. I was very impressed at how well they pulled this off.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mylifetime.com/shows/project-runway/season-9/fan-favorite#designer-grid"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-96" title="Project Runway Twitter Voting Page" src="http://blog.interactivejohn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Picture-8.png" alt="Project Runway Twitter Voting Page" width="617" height="574" /></a></p>
<p>Whenever they have a designer speaking on the show, they put their Twitter voting feed on their as well. What a great promotional tactic for the show! This is how Twitter SHOULD BE implemented, not to mention the great design of the actual vote page on their website. Bravo Project Runway (pun intended).</p>
