Guardian writer?

Sorry for the delay in response Mike. Perhaps take a look here:

https://github.com/wpmark/wpbasis/wiki

I am still in the process of getting some documentation together. It is essentially a utility plugin that I use on all sites I build. It locks things down, for client users as well as providing a host of template tags that I end up adding to every site I build.

I am looking to produce a Video Cast soon to help explain.

Please also read my blog post about the plugin here:

Also take a look at the Github Repository here: https://github.com/wpmark/wpbasis
