WordCamp – Part 2

As part of my preparation for WordCamp tomorrow, I’ve actually begun submitting things to the central WordPress code vault.  By that, I mean I’ve downloaded the latest pre-release version of the platform so I can test things and started writing plugins rather than just hacking the code outright.

One of my recent projects required a special feature.  We needed the ability to have clients register at two different user levels (segmenting them into groups based on how they entered the site).  Originally, I had to put a lot of code directly into the WP registration scripts.  Earlier this week, I devoted time to cutting out those scripts and instead using a plugin to add the feature.

If you, too, are a WP developer, you can check out my code either on the Jumping Duck website or on the official WP plugin website.  Either way, please offer your suggestions.  I’d like to introduce a new version sometime soon that is also compatable with the upcoming WP 2.7 release.
