As a developer, one of the challenges of working with WordPress as a platform is that finding information isn’t always easy. Sure, the Codex is a fantastic resource, but it lacks in a few areas.
On the other hand, it’s relatively easy to google for examples on how to do almost anything you’d like with WordPress, but these examples can often be of poor quality – just because something works doesn’t mean that it’s done correctly.
As I begin to shift my focus to talking more about WordPress development, I hope to be able to share a few thoughts on how to achieve certain tasks using the best practices with the WordPress API.
In recent weeks, I’ve been doing a fair amount of work using the WordPress Ajax API, so that seemed like a good place to start.
