Re: Twenty years here

Oh yes, you were a true pioneer. Of the regulars still around, I think only bici, giz, phiw13, mistersugar, saccade, TheEric, laszlo, michaelpate and Destry signed up before you, with bici and phiw13 joining in the first couple of weeks of the forum!

That’s wild. There should be a long service badge for the 2004 intake. Either that or, an I SURVIVED PHP 5 AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS LOUSY T-SHIRT. t-shirt.

Re: Twenty years here

Curious: Who were the two that signed up after Dean Allen, whom I presume was the first?

Re: Twenty years here

I recall mamash, he was also on the Textdrive forums.

Here’s to Dean, for starting all this! Good times! Cheers, you old bastard!
Who’s gonna textdrive you home tonight?

Jonathan passed over the reigns of Textpattern Tips a couple of weeks ago and txpbuilders now host it

So even after twenty years I discover that I really don’t know custom fields at all … to riff on a Joni song .
Via pursuing TxpTips (still a jewel of a resource) I came across this utube Nora Brown presentation. What a great presentation. Videos like these would greatly enhance promotng Textpattern.
Just in time for my current project. ;-)
TxPBuilders: Thanks for ensuring TxpTips remains available
