Building WordPress Themes from Scratch Available Once Again

Posted

big-bookMore book news for this week, this time regarding my first book, Building WordPress Themes from Scratch. I’m happy to announce that I worked with @envato to get the book back on Amazon for purchase in both Kindle form and in print. The print version is currently being proofed and should be available next week some time. The Kindle version is available now, so if you were waiting for it, go ahead and pick it up!

Also, I’ve set up Kindle Match, so if you pick up the print version you can get the Kindle version for $1.99. Thanks for everyone’s patience on this. I’m happy to make the book readily available once again!

Building WordPress Themes from Scratch was published by Rockable Press (now part of envato’s Tuts+ Premium program) in June of 2012 and covers how to convert a set of HTML pages to a fully functional WordPress theme. Here is the book’s description:

In this book, I plan to teach you how to use WordPress, as well as how to leverage the API to create your own custom themes, plugins, and content types. In other words, I will show you how to make WordPress your own. As an added bonus, you will be able to download all of the files I talk about in the book to review and modify!

Also keep an eye out. A new website for the book, wpthemesfromscratch.com, launching soon!

    My daughter is 7 months today. If you’ve never had a child, let me tell you: babies get really interesting around the 5–6 month mark. I wish I thought about doing this log right in the beginning, though I feel like the entries would have been similar until now. Let me catch you up real quick.

    Note: This article was published while I was in my early 20s. I was much younger and dumber. Please don’t hold it against me. One of the perils of having a 20+ year old website! If you’ve read my blog before you know I’ve been a pretty big fan and defender of Facebook. When they…

    What are You Passionate About?

    Bycasabona

    I was having a conversation with a friend recently that lead me to ask myself that very question. I’ve written about passion on occasion and have a general idea of what I’m passionate about, but the question struck me differently this time. I think it’s because the question wasn’t asked of me outright. It was…

    My Thoughts on the iPad Pro 10.5″

    Bycasabona

    So I’m a bit of a technophile and an early adopter. Always have been; I had a Palm M100 in 9th grade because it looked cool. Plus it helped me keep my busy schedule of drama club and homework straight. Since then, I’ve tried to get new tech sooner rather than later. Sometimes I write…
