We’re going to answer some listener questions today. We’ve been getting a lot of great ones, and we thank you! We will continue answering questions in future episodes. If you have questions that you’d like to submit, you can do so on the form on our website, or you can Tweet us or send an email.
Some of the highlights of the show include:
Pippin’s and Brad’s least favorite parts of developing for WordPress and why.
How Composer and Bower can help with single plugin development as opposed to when working with a team. Also, Brad’s and Pippin’s thoughts on using auto-loading for classes and plugins.
Whether new plugins should use API to insert new posts, or whether Brad and Pippin prefer WP Insert.
Thoughts on debugging Admin Ajax and making it faster. Which plugins are the most likely to be hogging resources and slowing it down?
How to determine a good price to pay for a plugin, as well as how to approach a plugin creator with a specific offer price.
Tips on hiring developers, where to find them, managing them, determining salaries, and working remotely.
