    Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

    Hal Stern dabbled in technical writing after discovering that Shakespeare, modern (but still dead) European writers and art history didn't stimulate any passion for a good nerd story. A breakfast meeting with Tim O'Reilly to discuss an idea for what became "Managing NFS & NIS" turned into nearly 20 years of books, articles, and tutorials. Every decade (give or take), Hal happens into some new technology area and becomes fascinated with its underpinnings: NFS in 1987, high availability in 1997, and WordPress in 2007. That's where the book ideas comes from. When not making his high school English teachers lament their wasted effort, Hal enjoys ice hockey, rollerblading, poker, yoga, photography, and heavy metal music.

Professional WordPress 3rd editional - "Dressed To Imppress!!"
I ordered this book before it was released, based on reading available excerpts from the 2nd edition on Amazon and after screening almost all other book titles available on Amazon. Once I started reading it, an immediate thought came to mind: WordPress to IMPRESS! What a reach platform indeed it is!! I have been a database developer, mainly using PROGRESS 4GL and their later platform, OpenEdge for 25 years so I am not new to programming. But let me state this: I never programmed using internet technology prior to June 2014. With the help of a PHP reference book, I sat down to read Professional WordPress 3rd edition on January 22nd 2015. And PROFESSIONAL it is, both in its coherence and in-depth covering of the WordPress platform. After reading about half the book, I restarted reading it, this time accompanying my reading with typing the code in the book as well as plugging in "debug" statements inside the WordPress 4.1.1 source code and displaying them into a .htm document that I could view in a browser while running the system. 2 weeks into the process I developed my first plugin for internal use and have progressed in strides ever since. I want to personally thank Brad Williams and his co-authors for taking the time and making a remarkable effort to come up with Professional WordPress 3rd edition. Such dedicated authors make system development experience scientific and most rewarding. After all said and done - 2 THUMBS WAY UP!!!

    5.0 out of 5 stars THE BOOK for Web Devs
    Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2019
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    In the past 2 or 3 years I have reviewed and read so many books by "WordPress Aficionados" that are nothing but fluff and contain no useful information for professional programmers seeking the hidden gateway into the maze that is WordPress that just the thought of those books makes my stomach churn.

    This is THE BOOK for programmers. I'm only 5 chapters into it and, as a professional software engineer, I am completely enthralled by it. Literally every page answers questions that I have always had about WordPress. I've been working with WordPress for years - mostly on previously built sites and have managed to muddle my way through theme modifications and functionality enhancements (without hacking the core!) with successful results, but I have never had a level of comfort working in WordPress, from a developer perspective that I've desired, but which I am now achieving, compliments of this book.

    These authors have done a SPECTACULAR JOB of presenting the information critically needed by software developers in a logical and precise manner that not only renders instant value, but opens the doors and exposes paths to gain further knowledge by demystifying the Codex and providing alternatives.

    Brad Williams, David Damstra, and Hal Stern - Kudos to you all! Thank you, truly, for writing such a wonderful book on WordPress!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Truly for Professionals and Developers - Not a Begginer's Book
    Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2015
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    WROX books, especially the Professional series, are the technical books geeks can't live without. And for good reason. Whatever the subject, they are clear, thorough and filled with information you didn't know you needed. Than the Lord for Kindles though, hauling a shelf full of these around would be a nightmare.

    This is not a book for beginners on how to use WordPress to publish your blog, though it does cover that as a small part of the book. This is rather a book to help those who develop WordPress sites either as a profession or part of their daily work load. While it would be rare for anyone to find the entire book applies to them, it is extremely rare for someone to find that none of the book applies. This book thoroughly covers WordPress architecture and development to the platform for any web developer. Some of the books topics assume you are familiar with programming principles, as well as HTML and CSS, and that you know at least a little about web development and PhP. If you are short in those areas, there are plenty of good books and online tutorials to bring you up to speed. Since the code discussed in the book is available for download, you can learn many of the techniques simply by modifying existing code snippets and adding them to your own work.

    If there is any negative to this book, it's not the fault of the book but rather the speeds at which publishers and platform developers work. While WROX is quick to publish books, and the authors in the Professional series are usually writing with pre-release software, by the nature of the publishing cycle versus the speed of the development cycle, most published books start going out of date the moment they ship. Fortunate, WROXD keeps publishing updated versions, such as this one, being the third edition.

    4.0 out of 5 stars A solid technical Wordpress resource
    Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2015
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    As other users have noted, there is a lack of wordpress books that are more oriented towards actual web development. This is definitely geared toward a more technical crowd, so if you have no experience with databases or programming or web development, then this may not be the best resource. I am familiar with java, VB, and C# but little to no experience with PHP, CSS, and wed databases, so this book was just what I needed. There is a long "getting started" portion, which I supplemented with some video tutorials online but it was good to have a print resource alongside to fill in the gaps.

    Awesome book. It really explains details of how WordPress works starting with the Loop in perfect detail. It is easy to read. I was looking for a book that would provide an explanation of the Loop and all the other parts of WordPress in an organized way, and this books has been fantastic in doing that in a short amount of time for me. It also provides you with the the URLs of the most important sources of information of WordPress depending on what you are looking for. For example, the books provides specific URLs for the best Wordpress Codex pages with information about functions, tag templates, Plugin API , Shortcode, Options API, Rewrite API, etc. This has been extremely valuable since WordPress documentation is huge but not very well organized. I read other books that I though would provide the level of detail that one requires to understand the under the hood workings of WP, but this is by far the very best one I have found. I highly recommend it.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The Only Real Advanced Book for WP devs
    Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2015
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    Best WP book for devs out there. Really, outside the dated plugin dev book, the ONLY advanced WP book out there. Which is surprising given the number of sites powered by WP. You can find literally dozens of HTML 5 books, hundreds of CSS 3 books, many XML... you get the picture. Even tho WP powers upwards of millions of sites, plus their own .com sites, there are very few "actual" books. By that, I simply mean lots of folks are taking advantage of the 'self-publication' route and producing $3.00 64 page booklets that do little more than present sections of the codex, often replete with misspellings and missing information, as 'real' books. They aren't.

    I get that WP moves so fast that to research and write and publish a book means that four new versions have been released since the idea first came to you, but damn. I saw and Advanced WP book come out, but it was half-complete and roundly attacked. The WP Bible's not been updated since Snowden was still in America. Too long.

    Still - that isn't about THIS book. This book is in the third edition and has been updated for WP all the way through 4.1. Nice! Lots of good, in-depth and in-detail chapters. Just what is needed. I liked it enough that this is my second copy - I have a 2nd Edition, too.

    Pick it up.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Ottimo testo per sviluppatori web pro
    Reviewed in Italy on April 19, 2016
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    Libro molto utile per chi vuole sviluppare in Wordpress. Tratta tutti gli argomenti in modo dettagliato e spiega perfettamente il funzionamento di ogni singola parte del CMS fornendo la chiave per personalizzare ogni sezione. Sconsigliato ai beginners, questo libro tratta l’argomento in maniera tecnica ed avanzata, infatti presuppone una conoscenza dei linguaggi: HTML, CSS, PHP, MYSQL.

    Nella nostra realtà professionale, come Agenzia Web, Neting.it, operiamo nella realizzazione di siti web professionali e pur avendo un'ottima esperienza come svilupatori devo ammettere che questo libro è stato molto utile per capire in profondità molti aspetti di WordPress e lo considero un ottimo aiuto per chi vuole personalizzare ogni aspetto, creare Plug-in e Template. Diventa ancora più utile se lo si usa come strumento di lavoro e in maniera empirica, leggendo il libro e provando subito le modifiche al codice consigliate mentre si è davanti allo schermo. Questa è infatti la maniera in cui consiglio di utilizzare questo libro, poco teorico e molto pratico!

    Vivamente consigliato a tutti coloro che vogliono sviluppare siti web professionali in WordPress, avere una visione completa dell’intera logica e, infine, creare i propri Template, Plug-in, Web Page senza dover contare su risorse esterne gratuite o a pagamento.

    -> Einführung in Custom Post Types, Custom Taxonomies und Metadata (setzt gute PHP-Kenntnisse voraus)

    Zu den Kapitel Theme- und Pluginentwicklung kann ich nichts sagen, weil mir die Programmierkenntnisse fehlen.

    Ich habe "Professional Wordpress" mit Ausnahme der Plugin- und t<heme-Entwicklung komplett durchgearbeitet, kann einfache Anpassungen an meiner Wordpressinstallation vornehmen und sogar PHP-Code am richtigen Ort einfügen.

    This is a good book, but it's a lot to read. Some chapters are practical and detailed while a few others are rather high level and very theoretical. Still it's a solid ressource !
