This weekend I decided to focus on my “Latest Work” portion of the site. I found a little bit of jQuery specifically called “jFlow” that I thought would be cool to use. So, I created a special loop based on Parent Child Pages and one for Categories and I’m in the process of working out the details and styling.

Check it out.

Anyway there is still much to do, and I’m thinking about adding a jQuery slider that will grab a Custom Field for selecting projects. I’m really going to give this one a go, I think with a little patients and planning this could be a great little plugin for Featured Content.

The Rules:
Every week on Saturday I’m going to spend about 5hrs or so Making an update. Weather it’s a Visual or Functional UpDate I’ll be posting the change here every Monday under this Cateogory VC-Construction.

This week I focused on a particular function I’ve been working on for a couple of months. Last Friday something clicked and I figured out what I was missing.

I now have an arbitrary Widget with about 30 options that will allow me to place any “Page” or set of Category “Posts” into a Widgetized area. Options include most basic loop items, with fields for standard WP customizations. There is also one main admin option (still under development) so that I can swap out loop variations with out altering the core plugin files.

The purpose of this is to be able to place content, as you see in my current sidebar, by using pages to manage the content. the sidebar item “Skorinc” is an example. I developed it as a Plugin, but it is based on my Theme framework and will not work with any other theme. Perhaps in the future I’ll release a public version, but there is still much development to improve on so I’ll keep for now.
