It’s Here: Digging into WordPress!

After nearly a year of production, Chris Coyier and I are stoked to announce our new book: Digging into WordPress! It’s nine jam-packed chapters (400 pages!) stuffed with everything you need to take your WordPress skills to the next level and really get the most out of WordPress. We take you through everything — from setting up for success and creating the perfect theme to optimizing performance and tightening security, Digging into WordPress delivers the goods. You’ll learn how to harness the full potential of WordPress with all of the tips, tricks, and code you need to make it happen.

Living, Breathing PDF Format..

The PDF version of the book is awesome because we will be able to update and expand it indefinitely. As WordPress changes, the book will evolve with new information, techniques, and code. This is why we call the DiW PDF a “living, breathing document” — it will grow with WordPress, and will be updated and improved periodically well into the future.

..and a Printed Version Coming Soon

In addition to the PDF, a printed version of Digging into WordPress will also be available sometime in the near future. Everyone who purchases the PDF version of the book will receive a fair discount on the printed book when it’s released. The printed book will be awesome, but the PDF is ideal because it’s easy to search, easy to zoom, easy to transport, and easy to copy & paste code. It even features actual hyperlinks that make it easy to jump to linked resources (and there’s a zillion of ‘em!).

Lifetime Subscription

All DiW customers automatically get a lifetime subscription to all future updates and new versions of the book. Chris and I are crazy about WordPress and plan on sharing our experience as time goes on. There are a few other WordPress books out there, but this one won’t get old and outdated as WordPress evolves. Whenever we update the book and release a new version, we’ll send you a link for a free download — fresh WordPress with the click of a button.

Affiliate Program

To help promote the book, we are also providing an affiliate program. If you like the book and want to help sell it, you can earn money doing so. For the PDF version of the book, we avoid the substantial costs typically involved with the printing, handling and shipping of a physical product. So, we are offering an affiliate commission of 50% for all affiliate sales. You are doing the legwork, and we appreciate it. Learn more here.

Thank You

Thanks in advance to anybody who picks up a copy. It goes a long way toward helping both Chris and I create all the other free content we love to share.
