PCs – I think there is confusion re billable vs not billable time for STWP projects. I’m going through monthly billing and have noticed a couple of projects that have STWP time marked as NOT Billable.
Just so you know, in this new project format, ALL time should be marked billable. We credit their invoice with the $500 they initially paid, but all time is BILLABLE. Nothing is included in a fixed price amount, at this juncture.
Please let me know if any questions.
How to find themes
How to buy it
Installing it
Once you purchase and download, either upload the file to LGED for the developer, or send the email with the download link to the developer to install.
http://themeforest.net/ may be a good starting point too for wp themes and code chunks/plugins 😀
For some clients, we create and/or optimize their Google Places listings. JI in the Philippines is our go to guy for that. This post is meant to give you some general knowledge about Google Places listings and what we do.
Google Places is also called Google Local (and used to be called Google Maps). Search on couples counselor denver and you’ll see something like this:

Optimizing the listing involves creating a title, description, selecting the correct categories, uploading optimized photos (we usually start with what the client has on their website), making some quick videos via Animoto and optimizing them, and building citations.
Here is a post on our blog for those of you who want to know more:

We charge a 1-time set up fee (now set at $500) and then a monthly citation service to create a footprint online for that business.
Ranking success depends on many factors, including the organic strength of the site, the optimization of the listing, itself, and most importantly, the number of reviews the client gets.
Is it possible to change the LGED notification e-mails so they’re not coming from Becky and reference the project better? I know the project is in the subject field, but it is difficult to sort these from “real” e-mails from Becky.
I think since Becky is the ‘owner’ on LGED, then the emails have to come from her. :-/
its possible, but may require some work. Are we hosting activecollab ourselves, or is it in the cloud?

Juan did this for DrSarahAllen.com — all with one Wysija account. There’s a technical work around. Please help and document the procedure.

Ok, I tried looking for the knowledge base page I read a while ago that explained this very well, but couldnt find it. It sank to the bottom of the internet 🙁
So im attaching a pdf I made to explain it. Its self-explanatory I believe, but any doubts let me know.
http://practicebuildingbook.com/tut.pdf
Its in the practicebuildingbook ftp because I cannot upload files here, not sure why (maybe a permissions setup problem).
Good luck!
@Dave – can you please edit this post and tag it with mailpoet as that is the new name. People wont’ search on Wysija going forward.

We just got an entire hosting account shut down via Bluehost because our practicebuildingbook.com account is again over the allotted file size.
We need to get this account down to normal size — probably need to move a bunch of sites out of it.
This set of sites that are down include 8 client sites, our Letsgeterdone site, and 16 development sites.
On 11/19, Daryl had got our file sizes down from 204k to 183,573, But today (12/7), its now up to 235k. So they shut us down — no warning this time — no date by which you can have it down.
So, I’m proposing that Daryl have a weekly task of checking the file sizes in all bluehost accounts to see where we’re at. And balancing them.
PC’s will need to check with Daryl before they tell the developer what hosting account to put the site in.
I’m re-creating a new project using the STWP template and need to transfer 2 expenses noted on the original project. Is this possible and/or is this necessary?
I’d like to delete the original project to lessen the chance for confusion – both have the same title.
Dave – I think the best thing to do would be to just copy and paste the 2 expenses to the new project, then delete them from the old project. Then you can delete the old project too. There may be a better way, but thats probably what I would do.
Here are the steps as best as I can remember. Please contribute to this to make it right!
Got this note from from Dave and Merco and that Merco (developer) can access all other projects but the Klara Brown project in LGED.
So, I went to the project (Overview tab) and clicked Manage Project People (bottom right).
I see that Merco is added but with permissions of “contractor”.

This must be changed. Click on the gear icon by Merco’s name. Then change his permissions to “Custom Permissions” and set to Access, Change, Create.
