Though I haven’t officially announced it yet, I have been talking for a while about a new book I’m working on called Responsive Design with WordPress. We are a couple of months out from release but things are going well! In the time running up to the release I’ll be out there speaking quite a bit to promote it.
Come on down to the Vintage Theater at 9am Saturday to see me speak about the basics of WordPress! My talk is part of a 24 Hour bonanza that’s going on from Friday at 9pm to Saturday at 9pm. I will include art, music, movies, tech, and more! The Vintage Theater is located at 326 Spruce Street, Scranton, Pennsylvania 18503. As for my talk…
I will go through the basics of setting up a WordPress site (hosted and self-hosted), familiarizing yourself with the admin panel, choosing themes, installing plugins, and more.
Come on down for a great time. Bring your WordPress questions!
As an added bonus, I’ll be sporting Google Glass.
As it turns out, I’m speaking a couple of times next week on WordPress Custom Post Types- check out the information below and register if you’d like!
Join us for the next NEPA WordPress Meetup, March 26th (this Tuesday) at 7pm at The Vintage Theater. My friend and colleague Phil Erb will be giving a talk called WordPress is Installed…Now What?. From the website:

PS- I know this blog has been really self-promoty lately, but I’m working on some cool stuff that I’ll hopefully be able to talk about soon, so stay tuned!
Back in October I gave a talk at WordCamp Philly about Building a Simple WordPress Theme Framework. I’m very excited to announce that a video of the talk is up over at WordPress.tv. Head on over there to look at the video, or watch it after the jump!
I know I haven’t been on in a while, but it’s for good reason: I’ve been busy movin’ and shakin’ and WordPressin’. My friend and co-worker Phil Erb and I have put together a WordPress Meetup here in Scranton and we’re very excited to announce that the first one is this Tuesday, February 19th.

Here you go! The slides from my talk, “Building a Simple WordPress Framework” at @WordCampPhilly are available for download, as well as the framework I came up with. Thanks to everyone who came out!
If you have any questions or comments/please email me at joe [at] casabona [dot] org. A note on the framework, I recently made some changes that aren’t fully tested yet, but this is the version I’m running at casabonaorg-staging.eowgdit8-liquidwebsites.com/test/.
Just a quick note that I’ll be speaking tomorrow (Oct 20th) at WordCamp Philly! My talk is called Building a Simple WordPress Framework. Here is the description:
This is a talk modeled after my 4-part series on WPTuts+, DIY WordPress Theme Framework. I’ll cover some basic rules of software reuse and defining your needs, what’s out there, why I made my own, and then some code: The important elements of WP themes and what should be included in the framework, how to use that framework as a child theme, and how to use it as a starting point for a parent theme.
I’m part of the Designer Track and will be speaking at 1:15pm (full schedule here). Come on by! If you can’t make it, I’ll be around both days so feel free to stop me and say hello.
