@rarst well i only got mine yesterday - thought there was going to be a pen as well, but only a tshirt and 2 stickers (says the person being ungrateful for getting not enough free stuff!)
@Brady how do you handle $.ajax(), when no result was found (no error/header 200)? Searching for the error message jqxhr.responseText during .complete() is annoying...
My problem is that I need to update some stuff after the success, using .complete(). And inside there I've the actual status and jqxhr.response. There I only have the JSON as (string) responseText: "{"success":false,"error":"No results","statusText":"error"}"...
response is just the object. I named it response inside .success() and jqhxr inside .complete().
.complete() triggers after .success/error() and should be used to update stuff, etc.
Problem is, that when I'm intercepting to display an error dialog during .success(), I've to abort inside .complete() too. But I don't know how (aside from checking the string)...
Yes, I'm breaking all the rules by posting a non-question. Since we don't yet have a separate WPSE blog, this seemed the most appropriate venue for a post-WordCamp discussion.
This past weekend, I left the frozen, drizzling weather that is my hometown of Portland and made the trek to the sunny d...
a client site - i'm just tired of starting with other themes / frameworks that take an age to grok, and where you end up modifying almost everything, so thinking about starting with something completely minimal
Same boat here. I think it'd be easier to start with _s than to build something 100% from scratch. It's already got the right loop templates and theme hierarchy built-in.
most of what i've been doing with WP over the last couple of years has been back end integration work - i've used one off the shelf theme as a base for front end stuff, but i've finally come to the point where i want to not have to deal with someone else's opinion!

@Jared No. Currently I intercept the string with an unnecessary complex substring statement. Then check for string true/false for error, extract the message and add it via js as the dialog title.
@Jared Thanks for the link and code. But it won't help. I already found a way to acchieve the same thing: Just add a 404 header along with the response.
The problem is that it's not actually an error. It's just "No results", so I want to avoid sending an 404.
@toscho Thanks. I already considered sending 204 too, but I wanted to leave the backdoor open for other feedback messages that are result blockers and still be able to handle the outcome in js...
Point is that - in this case - I'd have to rethink a lot of the logic in the php class and not in js, as I planned to do.
@toscho @Jared FYI I just gave 204 a try. $.ajax( { ,error: function() { doesn't take 204 the same way as it takes a 404. It simply adds to success: function() { with a response of null.
The problems with this are: A) No possibility to translate strings with php gettext and B) it lets the complete part execute - which then is missing the data. So sadly also a no-go.
