Getting Snipcart custom data attributes into WordPress + Elementor Pricing Table

After shunning pagebuilders in WordPress long enough, I gave Elementor a try for a landing page layout and found it quite useful. I also realized how terribly far behind Gutenberg is! So, Elementor got me 90% of the way there, as is often the case in WordPress - simple, until it isn’t! Custom code in the theme’s functions.php got the last piece of the puzzle.

WordCamp Brisbane 2018 - WordPress as a Static Site Generator

In a tired, but inspired state, after attending this weekend’s WordCamp Brisbane 2018. Got to start with a big shout-out to all of the organizers, volunteers, speakers and attendees - THANK YOU! I’m far from a WordPress fanboi - I regularly talk people out of using self-hosted WordPress. As a tech industry professional, I feel responsible to not push everyone to use a certain technology unless it makes sense. For someone who isn’t interested in learning development and being responsible for security and performance of their server (or willing to pay someone else to be), I’d much sooner advise them to check-out a hosted platform, be it WordPress.

Tweaking the Bitnami WordPress Stack on AWS LightSail

Update: I no longer use Bitnami on AWS LightSail due to the steps required to get sane application behaviour and performance are not worth it. Leaving this up for any searches leading here and will recommend for a similar level of serviced hosting, try DigitalOcean or Vultr. Tired of clunkily updating a GitHub gist, herein lie my notes used when provisioning an AWS LightSail instance with Bitnami WordPress for quick migration/debugging of an existing user’s WordPress site.
