  • Why Flexsider’s Carousel Demo with Dynamic Sizing Doesn’t Work

    I’ve scratched my head a few too many times to not post this (if only for my own reference). The ever amazing and rarely updated Flexslider from the folks at Woocommerce has a bug in one of the demos that doesn’t make it operate as intended. It’s the carousel with a dynamic number of elements…

  • Quickly replace WP Contact Form 7 Loading Gif (Updated)

    WPCF7 is an amazing contact form plugin. Its simplicity makes it great if you prefer to control all the elements of a sites design yourself. One annoying thing about it is that the loading gif is extremely old and only plays well on white backgrounds. Here’s a single line of CSS to replace its outdated…

  • Australia States & Territories Select Drop Down List

    This is a quick one, possibly for my benefit more than anyone. Pretty tired of recreating select lists of the Australian states and territories when building forms.
