If your WordPress Hosting is slow people might leave. If it is down they can’t even use it. If your site gets hacked then all sorts of not fun things can happen. I don’t need to explain this one further, you get it, hosting is important.

Here is a quick wordpress development tip to help you load posts into the wordpress loop based off the category slug in the URL. This assumes you are using the postname permalink structure for your url, e.g. mysite.com/category/testcategry.
In your functions file add this function:
[php]
function getLastPathSegment($url) {
$path = parse_url($url, PHP_URL_PATH);
$pathTrimmed = trim($path, ‘/’);
$pathTokens = explode(‘/’, $pathTrimmed);
if (substr($path, -1) !== ‘/’) {
array_pop($pathTokens);
}
return end($pathTokens);
}
[/php]
This function will process the slug we will pass to it from the template file. In your template file:
[php] $slug = getLastPathSegment($_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’]); // Get the last slug item$category = get_category_by_slug($slug); // Load the category
query_posts(‘showposts=-1&post_status=publish&cat=’.$category —>cat_ID); // Load the posts
// WordPress Loop as normal
[/php]
WordPress Sherpa did a fantastic job. They not only made a truly great site for us, that is world-class, but they worked with great diligence and patience with our staff and existing data structures. We are now able to maintain all of our product data in a single location and make changes that are immediately and simultaneously replicated to our public-facing and internal sites. This new site, and the way we are able to manage our data, has propelled Pactimo forward by leaps and bounds. I would highly recommend WordPress Sherpa.
