Nowadays just about every critical service that we use requires dual authentication methods (2FA). This is more practically known as “the thing that sends you a code by text, email, or Authentication App to verify your identity, after logging in with password”.

I’ve noticed in talks with several of my clients that they love my “Let’s try it right now” concept. Usually over Zoom and screen-share we make quick attempts to achieve something together in realtime, or backlog it if we run into delays. I use Trello to manage projects, so we toss the details into a…
Over the past few months I’ve received some inquiries about alerts related to the Legacy WooCommerce REST API moving to a plugin in Woo core 9.0.

To complicate matters further, there is an entirely new Shopify Customer Portal design that Apps cannot currently run in, only the legacy portal that the theme controls. I gather that Shopify is…
We have so many contact form plugins within the WordPress community. We also have several CAPTCHA systems available for these plugins, usually via Google reCaptcha or Cloudflare Turnstile. It’s all a lot to take in, and these plugins and services can add a lot of weight to a small site. Sometimes I prefer to use…
I recently migrated into Jetpack CRM free edition (no premium add-ons used). This is a great free plugin with significant premium add-on capabilities, supported by the same company as WordPress.com and WooCommerce.com Here’s my experience with it so far: I like how the admin menu offers regular main menu item mode versus individual main items…
