No stranger to fear, probably due to the fact that his first car was a red &#8217;88 Dodge Omni which may have contained the worst engine Dodge ever built, Dwayne is committed to helping you overcome your angst over the command line.<\/p>\n<p>Dwayne said he &#8220;loves the command line because it saves me a lot of time and lets me do neat things like automate updates.&#8221; He wants to share this knowledge with the world. &#8220;If you are doing everything through the WP admin interface you are literally wasting time waiting for PHP to repaint an admin screen,&#8221; he explained. &#8220;Learning basic WP-CLI commands will make administering users, themes, plugins and well, everything, much quicker and let you streamline your processes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The fastest car he&#8217;s ever driven is a 1997 SVT Mustang Cobra. Dwayne described his dream car as one with two bubble domes; with one in the front, while the one in the back is for quarreling kids, and comes with optional restraints and muzzles. He&#8217;d like the engine sound to cause people to think &#8220;the world&#8217;s coming to an end&#8221; and determined it would need &#8220;three horns, because you can never find a horn when you&#8217;re mad. The three horns would not be angry sounding, but instead play the song &#8220;La Cucaracha.&#8221; His dream car would also feature gigantic cupholders, the already mentioned bubble domes, shag carpeting, and tailfins. He&#8217;d prefer it came with a metal bowler as a hood ornament.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Catch Dwayne McDaniel LIVE at WordCamp Los Angeles:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Topic: WP-CLI: Don&#8217;t Fear The Command Line<\/li>\n<li>Time and Date: Saturday, September 30 at 3:30 p.m.<\/li>\n<li>Room: Talladega Room<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WCLAX Speaker Dwayne McDaniel wants to save the world time by introducing WP-CLI at WordCamp Los Angeles.
