I'm Alan from Fullworks Digital Ltd, where I develop WordPress Plugins and support and manage WordPress websites.
My day job consists of solving clients' WordPress issues and developing new code and solutions.
I started as a professional programmer in 1979 and had been involved with the IT of business technology in virtually every area that exist.
Badlywired.com is my personal blog and my aide memoire of the many interesting facts that I come across. As I spend a lot of time gathering parts of solutions from the internet and assembling them into my own solutions, and also just learning how to do things, this blog is primarily my 'note book' and a way of giving something back to the online community that has helped me extensively.
