Hacks and Help
Stuff that ShyRedFox comes across or helps with, in the help channel. Just writing it down for reference, if I don't see it in the Codex. (AKA my CSS playground.)

I don't know it all, but I love to learn!
As with anything to do with coding, there are often multiple ways to do things. If you find a better way or discover something cool, I'd love to link back to what you discover! Or if what works on my page doesn't work for you - let's figure it out.Hacks and Help News
