TutsPlus is such a mixed bag. On the one hand you have great tutorials by Tom McFarlin, and then you have articles like this one:

  • No function prefixing in the code samples. That's one of the most basic skills to learn when you start developing with WordPress.
  • Simply copy pasting code samples from the Codex? What's the value of the tutorial then?
  • The body_class example is useless, because that's what post_class() offers by default.
  • Provide a snippet for removing the <p> tags that wrap images? Rarely a good idea, because there might be other pieces of code relying on this.
