Very few slides - we will mainly be going over code samples, but here are the slides anyways. Never mind the strange fonts - I was using a nonstandard type.

3. To Plug or Not to Plug…
• Personal preferences.
• Don’t bork my markup.
• Don’t get in my way.
• Don’t waste my time.
• Are we just writing to the screen?
• Flexibility.

4. To Be Clear
• I am not recommending the elimination of
plugin use.
• I love plugins… just not all the time.
• If a plugin works for you – use it.

5. On To The Overview
• A few loaded hand coded examples
– Image slider
– Very basic E-Commerce setup
– Time based interactive media player
• Through these examples you will learn a
handful of powerful and reusable concepts
to aid you in creating your own custom
feature sets – without plugins.

6. Install Some WordPress
• And let’s jump into some code
• Sorry there are not many slides left 

7. Custom Post Type
• Post, Page, Attachment, Revisions, Nav
Menus and Custom
• register_post_type( $post_type, $args )
• single-{posttype}.php
archive-{posttype}.php

8. Setup Shirt Post Type

9. post-options-api
• https://github.com/kovshenin/post-options-
api
• Initialize Post Options API
• Register sections
• Register fields

10. You Still There?
• Hopefully these code samples have shown
you how quick and easy it can be to roll
out custom WordPress implementations
based on your needs.
• If not, I have one more sample.
