Welcome to Episode 43 of Apply Filters.  Today we dig into Backpress, a PHP library of some of the core functionality of WordPress.  Backpress grew out of the core of WP and is now the muscle behind GlotPress, a popular web-based software translation tool.  However, the future of this tool is in question.

This episode was sponsored by WP Ninjas, the creators of Ninja Demo and the highly popular Ninja Forms plugin.

This episode is sponsored by Dreamhost and their new Dream Press 2 managed WordPress hosting platform.  Dream Press 2 offers HHVM, which is an alternative to standard PHP, created by Facebook to optimize their site early on, and allows for page load speeds up to 25% of a normal page load time.  For more information, check out dreamhost.com/applyfilters.
