Reviews
Write a ReviewAmazing!
This is an amazingly effective and easy to use plugin. I went out searching for some code to adapt to my pages to do this same thing. Even about to hire someone on Fiverr. And then I came across the Content Mask plugin. It does exactly what I need in two steps. Thank you!
Wow! You’re Moving Fast! Very Much Appreciated!
I’ve upgraded the module and there are quite a lot of changes. I think I’ve got it, after a few quick tests! Cheers and cold beers from Romania! PS – If I found something that’s not quite right, I let you know! I salute you, be safe!
A Wonderful Concept!
I have a hard time articulating what's swirling around in my head, and Alex took the time to really extract and *understand* what I wanted. I'm super greatful for his time and effort!!
Outstanding Time Saver!
This plug is wonderful! It works efficiently and saved me from custom coding, subdirectories, DNS changes, and more. I’m usually reluctant donate to plugins, but for this one I was more than happy to do so!
Must Download
This works seamlessly and the developer is extremely responsive. You can tell he cares about his products.
I Just Tested It and It Works Beautifully!
Thank you so much for pushing this upgrade out! It helps me more than you can even imagine with the way some of my affiliate funnel is set up right now. Have a phenomenal rest of your week! I deeply appreciate your work!
Great Plugin and Even Better Support!
I just got the plugin and it does all that I was looking for! I tried to find a solution to my problem for hours, and then I stumbled upon this plugin. Amazing. Also, the support is awesome! I noticed a small bug, and he quickly updated it. Most definitely recommend it. Thank you!

Resources
Request a ResourceI've been starting to try and publicize resources when I end up helping someone, whether that's with a walk-through video, or StackOverflow answer.
Google Sheets as Timesheet
We used tedious paper timesheets, and then clunky or expensive software. We use Sheets for everything, why not our timesheet? A simple Apps Script validates/emails it to our CFO, while formulas in the sheet assist in maintenance.
Using GitHub
I had someone ask me how to get started with GitHub, so I made this impromptu walk-through video. It covers the basics of using GitHub Desktop, committing changes, pushing and pulling, and a few other basics.

Somebody asked me for a tutorial on how I made this website animated. I made this quick walkthrough showing a process to create some simple translation/rotation animation with JavaScript to make it look like it has depth.

Box Shadow Basics
I made this as I see more people joining #100DaysOfCode and learning the basics. Box Shadows are great, but most people make them way too stark for the elements they're on.
