I have been editing my Genesis Explained series, finding typos and grammar mistakes, as well as updating the illustrations and examples.

Genesis Explained Admin Class
Genesis 1.8 introduced a whole new admin system. As I was writing the previous articles in the Admin section of the Genesis Explained series I saw that this system was being updated, so I decided to wait on any further articles until Genesis 1.8 came out and settled in. The new admin system is OOP…

Genesis Explained Layout Functions
As promised in my previous post in the Genesis Explained series, I’m going to be going through the genesis/lib/functions/layout.php file today.

There are…

Genesis Explained Functions
In previous parts of the Genesis Explained series I talked about actions and filters, but Genesis is so much more than that. One of the great things about Genesis is all the helper functions. Today I am going to very quickly review them then I dig into detail for each individual function. First, lets look…

Genesis Explained Framework Filters with Arrays
In the previous two articles I have attempted to explain filters. Since each article builds on the previous article I recommend catching up on the entire Genesis Explained series, and at the very least the filters sub series. The last article dealt with using filters to change “strings,” that is simple text and html phrases.…

Welcome once again to the Genesis Explained series. Remember, this series builds on previous articles, so if you didn’t read the first Filters article, go catch up. All other posts can be found in the Genesis Explained tag archive. In the previous tutorial I went over the basics of how the add/remove filter function works.…
