Imagine that you’re building a theme, and in various places in that theme you have small elements that you’d just love to content manage. It could be items in a footer, in the header, or for use as widgets. Things like a copyright notice, a credit line, some free form spaces and so on. In the past, coding for this… continue reading ⇢
Heck – again, a little note from me about how quickly these events come around. But they’re great – we all enjoy them. This month we have the excellent local designer Edward Ridding coming to talk about design.
