Ian Patrick Hines

Ian Patrick Hines is the founder and CEO of Hines Digital, an award winning, internationally renowned, conservative digital agency that’s out to beat the left at their own game by out-hustling, out-organizing, and out-fundraising them.

From November 2012 – November 2013, Ian was a NationBuilder Tech Organizer, during which time he became one of the world’s foremost NationBuilder experts. He’s now helping campaigns and organizations get the most out of their nations as a certified NationBuilder Expert & Architect.

Prior to joining NationBuilder, he spent nine years in Maryland politics where he served in nearly every role from field organizer to communications director. In 2003, when online organizing was new and unproven, he managed the GenDean Blog — at just 17-years old — and his 2010 article on the potential impact of Square on political fundraising was featured on The New York Times' Bits Blog.

A fourth-generation Marylander, he currently lives in Severna Park, Maryland with his wife Christy and their three children: Oliver, Moira and Henry.

A second list of optional tags? I don’t believe that you can.

Ron’s right. And it really ought to be a set of objects.

{{ tag.url }}
{{ tag.name }}
{{ tag.slug }}

etc

commented on To be, or not to be...a long-scroll theme
I’d never thought of that. That’s smart. I’ve been giving clients written (PDF) guides on where things are buried, what fields I’m using for what, etc.

Ben — This one had Arabic (I believe it’s Arabic, anyway.) components, but it wasn’t 100% Arabic. http://createdwithnationbuilder.tumblr.com/image/68357386630

commented on How do I delete a FAQ page?
Sebastián — Thanks for your feedback. I’ve updated our documentation on how to delete a page (http://nationbuilder.com/how_do_i_delete_a_page), and removed outdated references to the “red” delete button. The button is no longer red, which may be the source of some confusion.

I apologize for the oversight in updating our documentation.

Devin — It should read the spaces normally. But if you’re having trouble, just replace tag.name with tag.slug and treat spaces as underscores.

commented on How to get the current URL of the browser?
Gavin — request.url_path is still listed on the Request Variables page. Are you saying here that it’s no longer supported / functional?
