Ian Huet
Ian has been lead developer with ChoiceCuts since jumping at the chance to combine his two greatest passions: web development and music. Having spent too many years working on purely practical data-driven sites he now revels in the increasingly multi-media space that is the internet.
Always on the look out for more effective ways to get things done, a chance encounter with WordPress several years ago made a big impression. A few hours and a full site migration has made WordPress the centre of things ever since. When not hacking under the WordPress hood, he also enjoys developing multiple personalities with which to torture his work colleagues and digging through record stores in search of the next musical gem.
Session: Multi-Media Mojo
Multi-Media Mojo will look at ways to simplify image handling when using WordPress as a publishing platform. Generating content can often be a very time consuming process, a process which can be equally enriched and prolonged by the inclusion of images. Bottlenecks that arise in the editorial process are not always technical.
The latest WordPress media manager features and the CC_ImageJuggler Plugin can be combined to assist the publishing of impressive content without the added editorial overhead. The aim is to illustrate that any good solution is as much technical implementation as smart thinking and better work flow.
