Summary
Professional WordPress: Design and Development, Second Edition will be revised for the latest version of this content management system, 3.5. More real-world examples for load balancing and multiusers. Some basic content such as the functional overview has been replaced with more advanced content since this is a book for developers. The section on WordPress taxonomy has been reworked to fit in with a new chapter. The new multi-purpose plugin, WordPress JetPack from Automattic (the creators of WordPress) has been added as well as coverage of HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript in the standards section. New chapters on Working with WordPress Locally and Custom Post Types, Custom Taxonomies, and MetaData and extensions of Themes to Project Themes and Child Themes bring the content of this book completely up-to-date and will provide developers all they need to deploy successful WordPress sites. The first edition of this book was praised for its hands on examples, and real world tips, and these will remain key features of this second edition. Code downloads and code samples will be readily available from the book's wrox.com web site.
