Just a quick update, it’s been taking me a long time to finish up the huge DB updates including updating the DB usage through all of the files to remove any reference to mysql_* functions. I’m *almost* done with the PodsAPI class, which is by far one of the biggest ones that needs the updates. …
Check this out guys… I’m not sure how everyone will react to it but, I found this at it seems similar to PODS. The one part of this that stands out to me is the amount of control one has over fields and relationships… http://dbtoolkit.digilab.co.za/

After discussion with @logikal16, here are the new rules we’ll be enforcing on the Pods codebase. Shorthand Shorthand can get messy, so it’s permitted in simple cases. Here are the examples where Shorthand usage is permitted. if (0 < $variable || false !== $variable) $do = ‘something’; else $do = ‘something’; and $do = (0 …
I’m in the process of going through the entire plugin and revising all usage of pods_query to utilize an array of objects (which is what $wpdb->get_results returns), as well as a few other updates to formatting. Here’s a few I’m looking to get some input on — pods_query() usage I’m seeing pods_query used in two …
Someone on twitter recently said that WP and Pods coding was uglier than ExpressionEngine. Now, we all know it’s a bit different since EE coding isn’t straight PHP so it’s not a perfect comparison, but it got me thinking since the WP Shortcode API allows for similar stuff to this, perhaps we can do something …
I want to make more use of error handling rather than just straight die()’s – so I’m working on implementing http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/WP_Error within 2.0 for different cases. The only thing I’m trying to work out is not the implementation of the error, but the handling of the error on the other side. This may add an …
So we used to point everyone to the Pastebin.com sub-domain for Pods, but now those sub-domains are no longer there in the latest version of Pastebin.com, so it got me thinking – why don’t we just have something like that on our site? I combined a url shortening script, with a simple code highlighting script …
Pods UI just got an unexpected update. I hadn’t planned on putting any other releases out and focusing solely on 2.0 but I thought we should give the community something to chew on in the mean time. I’d like to gather a couple bugs and perhaps do a 1.9.5 release of Pods too. Here’s what …
No, not that type of dating 🙂 Talking about the Pods usage of date(), we should at all times use date_i18n() instead, which has two params just like date() which are $format and $timestamp. This ensures all places where a date is shown is set to the correct timezone that the WP site is set …
