New Contributing Team Addition: Mike Van Winkle
Mike has worked with Pods since 2009 and WordPress since 2005. I know he’s got enough PHP / WP chops to handle the tasks set forth in Pods 2.0 – and he’s going to be contributing via our Tracker. For now, he’s a Contributing Developer with no SVN access, but I have no doubt that …
New Contributing Team Addition: Hunter Satterwhite
Hunter has worked with Pods for a long while now, and I’ve worked with him directly on a few projects he needed help with. I feel he’s got enough knowledge to cut it as an Official Support team member in our Contributing Team. He’s agreed to take on the position and offer up QnA support …

New Import from existing DB tables script (just global functions right now)
This script will eventually find it’s way into the PodAPI importing functions, but right now here’s what I’ve got so far. It does quite a bit out of the gate – enjoy! It imports items from another MySQL table (does multiple at a time actually) into your Pods. So basically, a migration script for those …
[Pods 2.0 UI] Advanced
Hey all, the next section I tackled was the Advanced workflow. This section is meant to encompass the higher level Pods interactions including management of Pages, Templates, Helpers, Roles, and Settings that come with Pods. When you initially click the Advanced menu, you’ll be first brought to the Editor tab. These tabs will follow conventions …
