Weekly Wrap: August 10, 2012

EE Insider is the new home of the weekly news round-up. We’re calling it the Weekly Wrap. I’d like you to think I spent hours coming up with that but I just thought of it as I started typing this.

So, welcome to the Weekly Wrap.

The cooks have been in the kitchen making great stuff with, for, and around ExpressionEngine. I’ve been tracking and saving everything throughout the week. Thank you for making this first installment of the Weekly Wrap a great one.

Let’s get started!

Web Together Launched New Site

Web Together launched a new EE-powered website and it’s all decked out with a responsive layout.

Infinite Scrolling in ExpressionEngine

John Henry Donovan shared his technique for implementing infinite scroll in EE. It’s a combination of Channel Entries tags, some pagination and a jQuery plugin. John Henry provided all of the code and even a complete example you can use to get started.

ChicagoEE Group Meetup on Monday

This coming Monday, the ChicagoEE group will meet at Fado Irish Pub at 7PM to discuss setting up a default EE installation to jump start your projects. Also, bring your favorite sites for a little show ‘n’ tell.

Inaugural Glasgow EE Meetup

If you’re not in Chicago, maybe you’re in Glasgow? The first EE meetup in Glasgow takes place on Friday August 31st. Mark you calendar and sign up to attend.

Work for Vim Interactive

A reminder from a previous post that Vim Interactive is hiring a senior developer to work in PHP and CodeIgniter.

Expiring Passwords in EE

At the DCEEr’s one-day conference a couple of weeks ago, Eric Lamb got a good add-on idea from a fellow attendee. That idea? Expiring passwords. He shared a screenshot of the work-in-progress. Looks great!

Experience Internet Add-on Updates

Stephen Lewis posted his own round-up of sorts. He shared a smattering of updates and information on his add-ons. Campaigners, Crumbly, OmniLog, SmartDown, MailChimp Subscribe, Author Info and Simple Commerce Developer.

Venveo List of Big Websites on EE

Ben Croker of Venveo wrote up a short list of important websites that run ExpressionEngine. You probably know every single site on the list. That’s pretty cool. It’s also cool that I helped build one of them.

EECI Tickets On Sale

The EECI conference coming up in October is selling tickets and you can get yours. At only $250 for the two-day conference, you can’t go wrong. See you there!
