We've recently launched a redesign of the Palomino Ballroom website. As part of the reworking process, we changed the site over to using WordPress for content management so the client can edit and update their site. As you can see from a few posts back, we performed a few changes from the initial design at the last minute.

I've recently created a WordPress plugin to list feeds by category that I thought I'd share with the world. Basically, rather than having only one feed url that shows all of your posts, this plugin allows people to subscribe to only the categories they want to receive updates from via RSS. The code is based off of old WordPress core code for list_cats function. You can see an example of it in the sidebar here: http://www.ben-huddleston.com/. More info after the jump.

I thought I might post some recent work up here since we've been a bit negligent lately about putting up what we've been working on. In the completed work section we have a project for Lifespan: The Depression Initiative , a site with resources for patients and physicians for dealing with depression. The Depression Initiative is the first site we've used the Code Igniter php web application framework on. I found it to be pretty easy to work with and overall was pretty happy with how it functioned.

We also have recently performed some more work for Name Media , a site for paddlers of all types: Paddle.com . This time we were on the development side instead of the design side as we were when working on The Truth About Cars. Paddle.com runs on the WordPress platform. The template is pretty non-standard, including putting pages and posts on the same pages for the categories so the client could easily edit the category overview SEO text within the CMS.

And, now for some sneak previews of projects currently in development. The Palomino Ballroom's new website is nearing completion:

We’re also working on some additional development for Lifespan - their Health and Benefits intranet site.
