comment WordPress and Git Workflow
I use this plugin for all my migration needs and have yet to see any issues with serialized strings and the url replace. All custom fields transfer over no problem. Keep in mind it replaces EVERYTHING by default. This includes users/passwords/etc...

Are you using any caching plugins that may be keeping an old version of the page on the live side?

comment How to add style to a string of text throughout WordPress website?
Correct, I forgot that jQuery's html() method strips script tags. I've updated with a non-jQuery solution that will keep the scripts in and not break the slider plugin.

Edit with fix to account for Scripts being replaced by jQuery's built in HTML method.

comment Ajax takes 10x as long as it should/could
Are there any methods of detecting the location of the wp-load.php from within WordPress? For example, could I write a static file with the path set as a variable within it on plugin load, then include that file in the stand alone Ajax response file?

Some code samples would greatly help in diagnosing this as well.

comment How to prevent duplicate slugs for wp_insert_post?
Since you're creating the page manually via PHP rather than using the built in WordPress methods it's probably sidestepping any duplicate name checks. You'll need to check to see if that slug already exists when trying to make the page, then adjust the slug if it is already there.

comment Upload Image Not accessible
Have you checked the permissions on your c:\Temp directory? That is typically where PHP will send uploads initially and may be where it's getting caught up, rather than in the WordPress directories.

comment Simple and customizable contact form with option to send copy to submitter
Not sure if plugin recommendations have been discouraged but Gravity Forms is a fantastic plugin for any kind of contact form and has options for send a copy to submitter by default. It's well worth the cost.

comment How To Include JavaScript Files Only In Single Posts?
Unfortunately not all plugins follow the rules when it comes to enqueueing scripts. There's a very good chance that between plugins and themes you'll have at least one instance where something is directly echoing a call for script inclusion.
