A talk modeled after my 4-part series on WPTuts+: http://wp.tutsplus.com/series/diy-theme-framework/ I’ll cover some basic rules of software reuse and defining your needs, what’s out there, why I made my own, and then some code: The important elements of WP themes and what should be included in the framework, how to use that framework as a child theme, and how to use it as a starting point for a parent theme. **I can also put together something on Custom Post Types or WordPress Multisite; I recently set one up to manage my client sites.
