A few years ago we toyed around with the idea of submitting a few plugins to the WordPress repository. Most of them were very basic
In 1931, CIE (Commission Internationale de l’Eclairage) defined the color space, representing all possible colors based on human perception. Like RGB, CIE XYZ has three
Because we’ll be sharing a lot of code outside of the WordPress plugin ecosystem, we needed a way to communicate updates to plugins (or shortcodes)
WHOIS is a protocol that is widely used for querying server databases in order to determine the registrant or assignee of a domain name or
In aggregating content to BeliefMedia as we retire old websites, we’ve had to put serious thought into how certain functionality was handled and maintained. One
The CMYK color model is a subtractive color model used in color press printing. CMYK refers to the four inks used in some color printing:
Finding the root domain name (or a top level domain, TLD) from a URL is challenging. Literature on the web generally leans towards a library that’ll find the root domain by way of comparing the URL against all approved top level domains 
… but this method introduces a degree of complexity that we wanted to avoid. The following function is one that we use to find a domain name root. It isn’t perfect, but it’s close.
The large number of string, random, and hashing functions make it easy to generate a random string with PHP. This article, partially migrated from Internoetics,
The CIE XYZ color model (created in 1931) is a ‘device-independent’ colour space in which each primary colour (X,Y,Z) is always constant, unlike RGB model
I went to a small Google developer day a few years back where the focus was clear: mobile design. Head designers from the Sydney office
The RGB model of visualising color can be problematic on the web because of the nature in which the values are mixed. Not unlike mixing
On a member-based site we operate we put a limit on the size of a directory before additional credit is required. The following function will recursively look through an entire directory and return a filesize. While the value returned is in bytes, you can alter it into a human readable string by using the first function from this article (“Return a Readable Filesize with PHP”).
