As a WordPress developer, I continually use code to customize the client websites I’m working on. Over the years, I gathered and indexed a great number of helpful snippets that I frequently tweak and use in those web projects.
Today, I’m pleased to be able to share my entire code snippets collection with you. Thus far, I maintain a growing collection of 67 useful code snippets, exclusively WordPress and Genesis related.
They are free to use, so go ahead and build something awesome with them!
Notification
If you want to be notified of new code snippets being shared, simply add this URL to your favorite RSS reader app. Since all the code is embedded from GitHub, the RSS feed only shows post titles in most RSS readers (I know, this is annoying).
If you prefer, you can follow me on Twitter. Tweets related to new code snippets being published on this site will be prefixed with the mention [Code].
Disclaimer
All code snippets shared on jeanphilippemarchand.com are intended for intermediate web developers and designers who know how to use and tweak them. Please keep in mind that I do NOT provide support for implementing code in your theme, nor can I be held responsible if your website is broken after trying to embed a snippet.
Find a Code Snippet
Each code snippet I share includes one or several tags (see list below) so that it’s easier to find it afterwards. For now, I guess the most simple way to find a snippet is to use your web browser’s find bar (hit Command-F on your Mac or Control-F on your PC) in order to locate a specific word or phrase on this very page.
In the future, I would like to be able to implement another way to find a code snippet (create a dynamic search form for instance), no ETA though. Don’t hesitate to tell me if you have any suggestion on how to do that.
