These are artificial intelligence models that anyone can download, inspect, modify, and run on their own infrastructure. The letter was published on July 24, 2026, and more than 270 companies and organizations have added their names. Its argument will be familiar to anyone who works in open source: technology gets better and safer when more people can study it and build on it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That belief is the foundation WordPress is built on. Anyone can run the software, look at how it works, change it to suit their needs, and share what they make. Those freedoms are why WordPress has become a foundational part of the open web and why people trust it with their work. Open weight models bring that same kind of access to AI. A model that anyone can download and adapt becomes something people can shape around their own work and improve for everyone who comes after them.</p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The next generation of innovation won&#8217;t come from models alone. It will come from millions of people building with them. Open weights help make that possible. WordPress is proud to support the Open Weights and American AI Leadership letter.<br><br><em>&#8211; WordPress Executive Director, Mary Hubbard</em></p>\n</blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Requests to US Policymakers</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The requests in the letter are practical ones. As signatories, we ask policymakers to expand access to computing power for startups and researchers, to invest in shared resources like public datasets and evaluation tools, and to keep more than one kind of model available rather than narrowing the field to a handful of closed systems. We also ask that common development practices, such as using one model&#8217;s output to improve another, not be treated as theft by default. Each of these requests follows the pattern that has made open source software dependable for decades, where many people test, improve, and secure the same technology in public view.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more than 20 years, WordPress has run on the idea that the people using a technology should be free to shape it. AI is becoming part of how people publish, and open weight models are one way that freedom carries forward.

Sites have to keep working smoothly for the people who publish, maintain, and depend on them. The case studies came from public services, independent publishers, community platforms, training systems, and large content operations.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/speaker/manny-costa/\">Manny Costa</a> covered the first of those: civic websites where residents find services, apply for programs, read emergency information, and report problems. In that work, accessibility, governance, and editor workflows are part of the service rather than a final check box.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two of the case studies were about publishers taking back ownership of their content. Both sites now appear in the WordPress Showcase.</p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-7387b849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"403\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/wordpress.org_showcase_the-ankler_WordPress-Showcase-Desktop.png?resize=1024%2C403&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21499\" srcset=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/wordpress.org_showcase_the-ankler_WordPress-Showcase-Desktop-scaled.png?resize=1024%2C403&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/wordpress.org_showcase_the-ankler_WordPress-Showcase-Desktop-scaled.png?resize=300%2C118&amp;ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/wordpress.org_showcase_the-ankler_WordPress-Showcase-Desktop-scaled.png?resize=767%2C302&amp;ssl=1 767w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/wordpress.org_showcase_the-ankler_WordPress-Showcase-Desktop-scaled.png?resize=1536%2C605&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/wordpress.org_showcase_the-ankler_WordPress-Showcase-Desktop-scaled.png?resize=2048%2C807&amp;ssl=1 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" /><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">See <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/showcase/the-ankler/\">The Ankler</a> in the WordPress Showcase</figcaption></figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/own-your-audience-how-the-ankler-escaped-substack-and-took-back-control/\">Nicola Cattons session</a> described how The Ankler moved 15 newsletters to WordPress and took direct control of its content, subscriber data, revenue rules, and reader experience.

In <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/agents-need-good-tools-too-designing-an-editorial-experience-for-humans-and-ai-alike/\">Aviral Mittals session</a>, an AI agent built a page from a Google Doc using patterns the team had already defined. <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/speaker/andrew-adam/\">Andrew Adam</a> described a library of about 100 written and video guides, with accessibility guidance included. Shared foundations covered repeat questions, while project-specific help and tips inside the editor handled the rest.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Human Judgment in the Loop</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Early on, Bo English-Wiczling had opened Showcase Day by addressing the gap between rapid AI adoption and trust. Her <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/keynote/\">keynote</a> covered the move in developer work toward setting intent and supplying context.</p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AI doesnt remove your work. It moves it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>&#8211; Bo English-Wiczling</em></p>\n</blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A first draft can now arrive in seconds, but an almost-right block of code may still miss keyboard navigation, use the wrong theme styles, or bring an unsafe dependency into a project.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The importance of good judgment is familiar to the WordPress community. Bo tied it to habits WordPress contributors already have: reading other peoples code, submitting small changes, reviewing pull requests, and accepting critique in the open.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure

morning, Loyal Pyczynski drew on his work at Disney and Meta for a keynote about tests, time, and creative confidence. His <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vE1fS1sLpQ\">talk</a> returned to a phrase from an Imagineering colleague.</p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We need to make sure that we make better mistakes tomorrow. Success is an iterative endeavor, and time is our most precious resource.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>&#8211; Loyal Pyczynski</em></p>\n</blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Loyal described Disney teams that paired creative and technical leads early, then brought in experts for work another team could do better or faster. The goal was not to know everything but to know what the team should own.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Design and publishing sessions drew similar conclusions as the keynotes. <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/speaker/michelle-hunt/\">Michelle Hunt</a> framed design systems as living feedback systems that need to preserve intent as production gets faster.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/speaker/k-adam-white/\">K Adam White</a>s session centered on moving large stores of content into block patterns, with editors staying involved where automatic conversion still needed judgment. <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/abilities-api-for-humans/\">Nik McLaughlins Abilities API session</a> looked beyond AI integrations to the broader structure the API gives WordPress developers. <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/the-site-is-the-source-of-truth-block-themes-ai-and-agency-workflows/\">Brian Coords</a> made a related case through block themes: approved patterns, templates, and real content offer a starting point, and design tokens add guidance that a blank-page prompt cannot provide.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Machine translation got the same treatment. In a <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/lost-in-machine-translation-ai-wordpress-and-the-translations-nobody-saw-coming/\">multilingual WordPress multisite case study</a> of AI translation for technical content, native-speaking colleagues found output that was correct word by word and could still miss the intended meaning. Human review covered the gap between translating language and translating intent.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The judgment question even reached hiring. <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/the-making-of-a-wordpress-certification/\">The Making of a WordPress Certification</a> introduced a standards-based certification and covered how the credential was created, checked, governed, and delivered.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trust Becomes a Product Practice</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wednesday morning took the trust question outside the WordPress world. The day opened with a <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/keynote-2-2/\">fireside chat</a> between Amanda Ventura of Waymo and David Levine on what it takes for people to trust technology that moves through their streets.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;galleryId&quot;:&quot;6a9999aadd7ab&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core/gallery\" class=\"wp-block-gallery

Teams can publish safety data and listen before arriving in a new city, and they need a path for product teams to act on feedback. Her example came from accessibility testing. Screen-reader support helped blind and low-vision riders use the Waymo app, but it did not solve the physical problem of finding the right car. Feedback led to step-by-step directions and a horn control with a distinct musical tone that was easier to identify on busy city streets.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other sessions applied that standard to WordPress sites. WordPress Core committer <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/speaker/jonathan-desrosiers/\">Jonathan Desrosiers</a> focused on supply-chain safety while <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5_hxy2ET8Y\">Robert Abelas session</a> explored login security. AI tools can find security flaws faster than ever. That speed raises the need for careful checks.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The rest of Wednesdays schedule included sessions on security, accessibility, design, AI tools, and work for site owners.</p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/is-your-wordpress-site-legally-ready-for-ai/\">Kathy Zants session</a> proposed an audit for AI use, covering plugins, themes, content pipelines, and client sites, and it named consent, data location, disclosure, and legal review as questions teams should settle before launch.</li>\n\n\n\n<li>Another <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/your-client-wants-ai-their-lawyer-just-said-no/\">case-based session</a> compared two responses to navigation problems: one client received an AI search tool, and another received a predictable interface that editors could control. The planned lesson was simple. AI can be the right choice without being the automatic choice.</li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/beyond-plugins-real-accessibility-for-wordpress-websites/\">Joseph LoPrestes session</a> explored accessibility work no single plugin can complete: navigation, forms, headings, images, content, and interactive elements.</li>\n</ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Learning With Your Laptop Open</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress beginner workshops ran throughout the event for first-time builders, with no hosting account or prior WordPress experience required. Participants made pages, posts, logos, and menus, and each person left with a WordPress site, a year of hosting, and a domain. These sessions laid groundwork to work with plugins, styles, and additional features. The beginner program, office hours, and Happiness Bar gave people several places to ask questions and get hands-on experience.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure

followed was a dynamic presentation and conversation between Mullenweg and <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/speaker/robert-jacobi/\">Robert Jacobi</a>, ending with a traditional Q&amp;A. Matt&#8217;s thesis was simple: Tech needs to be simpler.</p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I want WordPress to be known for simplicity, not just complexity.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>&#8211; Matt Mullenweg</em></p>\n</blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After a detour through why AI models now prefer simple, self-contained HTML files, the argument became tangible with WordPress Piplets, a 2007 idea built around a single self-modifying PHP file that stores its own data, with no database and no third-party packages. One file can hold up to 25 megabytes, about four million words, and load in about 50 milliseconds. For Mullenweg, it extends the experiments that took WordPress from MySQL to SQLite to <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/playground/\">Playground</a>, and he floated the idea of a WordPress.org directory where people could publish, fork, and remix.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking of WordPress.org, it was announced that profile links are getting shorter, with w.org/username redirects like <a href=\"https://w.org/@matt\">w.org/@matt</a> already live, with full support just a few days away.</p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-7387b849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"margin-top:0;margin-right:0;margin-bottom:0;margin-left:0\"><a href=\"https://wordpress.org/download/releases/7-1/\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"535\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/image-3.png?resize=1024%2C535&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21520\" srcset=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/image-3.png?resize=1024%2C535&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/image-3.png?resize=300%2C157&amp;ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/image-3.png?resize=768%2C401&amp;ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/image-3.png?resize=1536%2C803&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/image-3.png?w=2048&amp;ssl=1 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" /></a></figure>\n</div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Midway through, release leads were called up to press the button on the WordPress 7.1 release, and were awarded with applause as <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/download/releases/7-1/\">“Mary Lou”</a> received hundreds of thousands of downloads.</p>\n</div>\n</div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On contribution, Mullenweg expressed his desire to reward impact instead of pledges. The <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/five-for-the-future/\">Five for the Future</a> directory shows two million self-sponsored hours pledged each week from 150,000 contributors, and he questioned whether that reflects reality. The project already records what actually happened (commits, posts, tickets closed, WordCamps organized), and he wants recognition built on that record. He asked the same of the plugin directory, suggesting a focus on fewer better-working things.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Audience questions covered AI licensing, data centers, and why open source communities compete more than they collaborate. On that last one, Mullenweg invited other open source leaders to speak at WordCamp, and encouraged working together. Copying good code between projects, he said, is the entire point of open source.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;galleryId&quot;:&quot;6a9999aae117b&quot;}\"

closed by asking who was at their first WordCamp; he had met more first-timers here, he said, than in the past ten years. One of them found the event by asking an AI chatbot for the coolest thing happening in Phoenix, came to Contributor Day, and left with one of its awards.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Beyond the Session Rooms</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So much happens outside the session rooms. At the WCUS <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/29-days-out-phoenix-in-august-is-actually-kind-of-perfect-heres-why/\">Happiness Bar</a>, volunteers sat with attendees and worked through plugin questions, CSS problems, ecommerce setup, and new-site questions. An AFK (Away From Keyboard) room offered a quiet place away from the crowds. In the Sponsor Hall, people painted Wapuus with a local Phoenix artist, watched screen-printing, and talked between product demonstrations.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure

Through all of it, she kept reinventing her own sound. In the 1940s, she turned her Harlem apartment into a nightly workshop where Thelonious Monk, Dizzy Gillespie, and Bud Powell came to trade ideas and shape bebop itself. That combination of reinvention and collaboration inspired WordPress 7.1.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let the range of <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCha4zVvYM9Tv8Hx0Q9lN_jQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mary Lous music</a> carry you through everything 7.1 offers.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Welcome to WordPress 7.1!</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress 7.1 is built around how you work: navigating the admin, controlling your designs, collaborating with others, and building what you want. The admin bar now follows you across the entire admin experience, putting the tools you need within reach, whether you&#8217;re writing a post or editing your site&#8217;s design. Built-in responsive styling, added to the current show/hide options for blocks, means you can ensure your site looks exactly how you want across screen sizes, without custom CSS. A new media editor keeps the familiar Crop button entry point, and brings freeform and aspect-ratio cropping, horizontal and vertical flipping, fine-grained and snap rotation, and metadata editing into one dedicated workflow. Leave Notes anywhere in your content—no longer limited to the block level. Rich text support and @mentions make it easier to collaborate with others as you write. Two new blocks, Playlist and Tabs, as well as a new API to register your own set of icons for the Icon block, give you even more flexibility to build what you want without additional plugins. These are just the highlights! Read on to see everything WordPress 7.1 has to offer.</p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https://wordpress.org/wordpress-7.1.zip\">Download WordPress 7.1</a></div>\n</div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What&#8217;s inside</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There&#8217;s a lot packed into WordPress 7.1 across new styling tools, updated media flows, added Notes functionality, and more. Some changes add new capabilities, while others refine existing tools and workflows.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here&#8217;s a closer look at what&#8217;s new in this release, starting with the release video:</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/dO751c8jkn0?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"></iframe>\n</div></figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Apply responsive styles</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Style your content your way, on every screen.</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress 7.1 brings more responsive controls directly into the Site Editor. Style how a block looks at different screen sizes from Global Styles or in individual block settings, without custom CSS. You can also preview your changes at different viewport sizes as you work, making it straightforward to build layouts that adapt to the way people browse the web.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"632\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/Apply-responsive-styles.webp?resize=1024%2C632&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21424\" role=\"none\" srcset=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/Apply-responsive-styles-scaled.webp?resize=1024%2C632&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/Apply-responsive-styles-scaled.webp?resize=300%2C185&amp;ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/Apply-responsive-styles-scaled.webp?resize=767%2C474&amp;ssl=1 767w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/Apply-responsive-styles-scaled.webp?resize=1536%2C949&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/Apply-responsive-styles-scaled.webp?resize=2048%2C1265&amp;ssl=1 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Admin bar, now in every editor</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Consistent navigation, from dashboard to editor.</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The WordPress admin bar now stays with you as you move across all editors, so you always know where you are and have easy access to familiar tools.

The familiar Crop button still gets you there.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"632\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/A-new-way-to-crop.webp?resize=1024%2C632&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21430\" role=\"none\" srcset=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/A-new-way-to-crop-scaled.webp?resize=1024%2C632&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/A-new-way-to-crop-scaled.webp?resize=300%2C185&amp;ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/A-new-way-to-crop-scaled.webp?resize=767%2C474&amp;ssl=1 767w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/A-new-way-to-crop-scaled.webp?resize=1536%2C949&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/A-new-way-to-crop-scaled.webp?resize=2048%2C1265&amp;ssl=1 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Inline notes with mentions and rich text</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>More ways to leave feedback.</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Notes now support rich text and mentions, making it easier to leave clear feedback and loop in the right people. Format your Notes with bold, italic, and code, add links, or type <code>@</code> to mention a collaborator and notify them.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can also leave a note on a specific piece of text instead of just an entire block, keep multiple conversations going on the same block, and collapse longer notes to keep the margin tidy. It&#8217;s built for the back-and-forth that happens when people review content together.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\"

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Image compression, resizing, and thumbnail generation now happen in the browser, reducing server load and producing smaller files — without hitting PHP memory limits or upload timeouts.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Media handling in 7.1 also includes native support for AVIF, HEIC, and HDR gain maps, adding native support for the image formats modern cameras and phones already produce.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"632\"

how content looks and behaves.</p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Create playlists</h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bring multiple audio tracks together in one playlist, with an

Viewport-relative units and media queries now target the editing canvas directly, so responsive layouts behave more predictably as you build. The change is mostly invisible, but the result is a more reliable and consistent editor.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Developer&#8217;s toolbox</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Advanced tools for building your way.</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress 7.1 expands several of the APIs and tools developers use to build on WordPress, with new options for icons, automation, admin interfaces, and responsive styling.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The SVG Icon API is now a public API, allowing developers to register their own icon collections and icons and use them throughout the editor with functions such as <code>wp_register_icon_collection(), wp_register_icon(), and wp_get_icon().</code></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Abilities API builds on the infrastructure introduced in WordPress 6.9 with a filterable execution lifecycle, custom validation, and shared discovery. These additions make it easier to build integrations and automation on top of WordPress, including AI-powered tooling.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A new Design System provides foundational support for theming WordPress admin interfaces, including color, roundness, and cursor styles. Developers can use semantic design tokens and the <code>ThemeProvider</code> React component to bring more consistency to custom admin interfaces while still feeling at home in WordPress.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Theme authors also get responsive styling and pseudo-state styling for hover, focus, focus-visible, and active states through <code>theme.json</code>, along with new filters for configuring the DataViews and DataForm screens that power Pages, Templates, Parts, and Patterns in the Site Editor.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Accessibility</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress 7.1 continues to improve accessibility across WordPress Core and the editor. New <code>wp_get_tooltip()</code> and <code>wp_get_toggletip()</code> functions bring accessible tooltips to more areas of the WordPress admin, including post meta boxes and the login screen.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Screen reader support also improves across admin interfaces, with clearer labeling and more predictable navigation in post list tables. The new Tab and Playlist blocks, along with improvements to editor navigation and interaction, add to the broader accessibility work included in this release.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Together, these changes continue to make WordPress easier to navigate and use for more people.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Performance improvements</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Image compression, resizing, and thumbnail generation now run in the browser (via a WebAssembly build of libvips), reducing the processing load on your server and helping avoid memory limits and timeouts with larger uploads.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Opt-in GIF-to-video conversion produces typically smaller files, while upload progress indicators and automatic retries make uploads more resilient when connections drop.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Media Library now uses infinite scrolling by default, with a per-user option to return to pagination. Speculative loading defaults can now be set through environment variables or constants, so hosts and site owners can configure how WordPress prefetches pages without writing a plugin.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">And much more!</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a comprehensive overview of everything new and improved in WordPress 7.1, visit the feature showcase website.</p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https://wordpress.org/download/releases/7-1/\">Check out what&#8217;s new in 7.1</a></div>\n</div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Learn more about WordPress 7.1</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://learn.wordpress.org/\">Learn WordPress</a> is a free resource for new and experienced WordPress users.&nbsp; Learn is stocked with how-to videos on using various features in WordPress, <a href=\"https://learn.wordpress.org/social-learning/\">interactive workshops</a> for exploring topics in-depth, and lesson plans for diving deep into specific areas of WordPress.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read the <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/documentation/wordpress-version/version-7.1/\">WordPress 7.1 Release Notes</a> for information on installation, enhancements, fixed issues, release contributors, learning resources, and the list of file changes.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Explore the <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/08/05/wordpress-7-1-field-guide/\">WordPress 7.1 Field Guide</a>.&nbsp; Learn about the changes in this release with detailed developer notes to help you build with WordPress.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The 7.1 release squad</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every release comes to you from a dedicated team of enthusiastic contributors who help keep things on track and moving smoothly.

That convenience carries a cost: the bar occupies the viewport, so the page on screen is never quite the page a visitor sees. On sites doing more interesting things with the viewport, such as sticky headers or scroll-driven effects, it can introduce artifacts that send you hunting for a bug that is not there. Further, the admin bar can sometimes grow unwieldy as plugins add their own features and shortcuts to it. Switching it off in your profile settings trades one problem for another, because the shortcuts leave with it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That problem was the spark for the creation of the WordPress Browser Extension. The extension hides the admin bar on the sites you choose, or everywhere by default, and keeps the most commonly used shortcuts one click away. Bringing the full bar back takes two clicks and no trip to the dashboard. What began as a fix for that one tradeoff grew into something broader: a way to recognize WordPress wherever you find it on the web, to jump into your own sites from anywhere, and to carry a small set of tools for testing and review.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"719\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/wordpress-browser-extension.gif?resize=1280%2C719&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Hide and show the WordPress admin bar from the new extension menu.\" class=\"wp-image-21387\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As you browse, the toolbar icon shows whether the current site runs WordPress and whether you are signed in, without being obtrusive. On a site you manage, opening the extension reveals shortcuts to the dashboard or to the editor for the exact post, page, taxonomy, or template in view, including template-backed pages that open in the Site Editor on block themes. A locally stored launcher remembers the sites you sign in to, so they stay available even when you are somewhere else entirely.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A few tools also turn out to be a better fit for the browser than for a WordPress plugin. The extension can draw block boundaries over the rendered page, open a phone-sized preview window, reload with cache busting, or clear cookies and local storage for the site you are on. Some of that is hard to do from inside a site, and none of it requires a plugin or any other software installation, so the same tools are available on every WordPress site you visit.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"739\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/WP-Browser-Extension-Safari-Block-Outlines.png?resize=1024%2C739&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"A screenshot of WordCamp.org in Safari with the WordPress Browser Extension open and the developer tools expanded.\" class=\"wp-image-21364\" srcset=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/WP-Browser-Extension-Safari-Block-Outlines.png?resize=1024%2C739&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/WP-Browser-Extension-Safari-Block-Outlines.png?resize=300%2C216&amp;ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/WP-Browser-Extension-Safari-Block-Outlines.png?resize=767%2C553&amp;ssl=1 767w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/WP-Browser-Extension-Safari-Block-Outlines.png?resize=1536%2C1108&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/WP-Browser-Extension-Safari-Block-Outlines.png?resize=2048%2C1477&amp;ssl=1 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All of this happens on your device. The extension reads the page in front of it to work out what it is looking at, and when it needs more than the page can tell it, it asks the site. Your preferences, and the list of sites you sign in to, stay in your browser. Nothing is sent anywhere else, and there is no tracking or analytics of any kind.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The extension began as an <a href=\"https://github.com/jakemgold/wordpress-browser-extension\">independent project</a> and became an official project with active support from <a href=\"https://profiles.wordpress.org/matt/\">Matt Mullenweg</a>. Notable contributors include <a href=\"https://profiles.wordpress.org/fabiankaegy/\">Fabian Kägy</a>, a core contributor and colleague at <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/five-for-the-future/pledge/10up/\">Fueled (formerly 10up)</a>, who helped shape much of its early design and architecture, and Khokan Sardar who contributed multiple patches. Several other Fueled colleagues provided comprehensive testing and influenced its final shape.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can follow along with its development <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/browser-extension/\">on its GitHub repository</a>, where bug reports and pull requests are welcome.</p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-7387b849 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-container-content-9bc24f4e\"><a href=\"https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/wordpress-browser-extensi/apaakgfongbkeecchhhjocpgjchbdenl\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"496\" height=\"150\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/chrome-web-store-badge-border-large.png?resize=496%2C150&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21391\" srcset=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/chrome-web-store-badge-border-large.png?w=496&amp;ssl=1 496w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/chrome-web-store-badge-border-large.png?resize=300%2C91&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 496px) 100vw, 496px\" /></a></figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-7387b849 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-container-content-9bc24f4e\"><a href=\"https://apps.apple.com/app/id6794460913\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"103\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/Download_on_the_Mac_App_Store_Badge.png?resize=400%2C103&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21392\" srcset=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/Download_on_the_Mac_App_Store_Badge.png?w=400&amp;ssl=1 400w, https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/Download_on_the_Mac_App_Store_Badge.png?resize=300%2C77&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" /></a></figure>\n</div>\n</div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"></p>\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:30:\"com-wordpress:feed-additions:1\";a:1:{s:7:\"post-id\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:5:\"21282\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:4;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:66:\"\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:4:{s:0:\"\";a:6:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:23:\"WordPress 7.0.4 Release\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:59:\"https://wordpress.org/news/2026/08/wordpress-7-0-4-release/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Wed, 12 Aug 2026 14:45:53 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"category\";a:4:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:8:\"Releases\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:8:\"Security\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:2;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:14:\"minor-releases\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:3;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:8:\"releases\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:35:\"https://wordpress.org/news/?p=21371\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:1:{s:0:\"\";a:1:{s:11:\"isPermaLink\";s:5:\"false\";}}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:368:\"WordPress 7.0.4 is now available WordPress 7.0.4 is now available which features a security fix.

My name is Nathan Wrigley.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jukebox is a podcast which is dedicated to all things WordPress. The people, the events, the plugins, the blocks, the themes, and in this case, navigating WordPress security in the era of AI.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;d like to subscribe to the podcast, you can do that by searching for WP Tavern in your podcast player of choice, or by going to wptavern.com/feed/podcast, and you can copy that URL into most podcast players.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have a topic that you&#8217;d like us to feature on the podcast, I&#8217;m keen to hear from you and hopefully get you, or your idea, featured on the show. Head to wptavern.com/contact/jukebox and use the form there.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So on the podcast today we have Aaron D. Campbell.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Aaron is a seasoned veteran in both the internet and WordPress space. With over 25 years of experience spanning agency work, security products, hosting giants like GoDaddy and Newfold, and now his role at Monarx, a company focused on malware detection and remediation, particularly for web hosts. He&#8217;s led, the WordPress Security Team, has been involved deeply in shaping security practises, and remains tightly connected to the WordPress ecosystem.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We talk about the rapidly changing landscape of WordPress security, specifically how the advent of AI has escalated the speed, scale, and complexity of attacks, moving the security game from a battle of wits to a battle of compute power. Aaron discusses how attacks that once required human ingenuity are now orchestrated by AI agents, capable of chaining vulnerabilities that humans would struggle to conceive.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We get into the shift from a reactive to a proactive security posture across the WordPress ecosystem. Aaron explains how both attackers and defenders are now deploying AI leading to an arms race, where AI is used to combat AI, and where collaboration among security teams is just as crucial as information sharing among adversaries.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Which chat about the motivators behind attacks, spoiler, it&#8217;s almost always money. And the specific vulnerabilities WordPress faces as the most popular CMS on the web. Of interest is the narrowing window between when vulnerabilities are discovered and when they&#8217;re exploited, how supply chain attacks are on the rise, and what the WordPress &#8220;Protect the Shire&#8221; innovation means for plugin security.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Towards the end of the episode, we explore practical security advice for everyday WordPress users, with Aaron, recommending actionable tips on updates, choosing security minded hosts, and monitoring for Compromise credentials.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are concerned about how AI is reshaping the WordPress security landscape, and want to know how the community is responding, this episode is for you.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re interested in finding out more, you can find all of the links in the show notes by heading to wptavern.com/podcast, where you&#8217;ll find all the other episodes as well.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so without further delay, I bring you Aaron D. Campbell.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am joined on the podcast by Aaron Campbell. Hello, Aaron.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:03:43] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> Hello, nice to be here.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:03:44] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah. Thank you for joining me. We&#8217;re in a corridor. I should say that at the very beginning. We&#8217;re in a corridor at WordCamp US, and so if background noise becomes a problem, we&#8217;re just going to have to cope with it. So apologies. But thank you for joining me in a corridor.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:03:57] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> Absolutely.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:03:58] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> We&#8217;re going to talk today a little bit about WordPress security, and particularly about the advent of AI, and the way that certainly in the more recent past, it appears to have upended what once was normal, I think it&#8217;s fair to say. I think things are happening at a rate of knots that perhaps a year or two ago we wouldn&#8217;t necessarily have predicted.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do you want to just give us a little bit of background about yourself in terms of where you have worked, where you currently work, and what it is that you do for a living?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:04:25] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> Sure. So I guess I have worked in the internet space for a very long time at this point. I guess 25 years-ish. Ran my own agency for a long time and then into security product in the WordPress space, and over into hosting at GoDaddy, at Newfold, at hosting.com.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During that time I ran the WordPress security team for a couple years, have continued to be involved with it along the way, and now I am over at Monarx. We do malware detection and remediation, and have some security tooling for web hosts. So I&#8217;m still very tightly tied into that space on a few fronts.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:05:09] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Is Monarx a new company? Because it&#8217;s not one that may necessarily come into mind when we talk about security online, WordPress security specifically.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So if you&#8217;re willing, could you just give us a little bit of a potted history of Monarx and what specifically you do in the WordPress space? I think it&#8217;s perhaps more related to hosting companies than it might be to end users. Just flesh that out a little bit.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:05:33] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> Yeah. Monarx has been around probably longer than you expect, six or seven years. The name&#8217;s may be not as recognisable, because a lot of times we are a white label in the background. Hosts run us, and you may not know that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We protect more than just WordPress, but obviously WordPress is a big part of that. And we help hosts keep their users, their end users, safe and secure and malware free by monitoring the files, the runtime, having a WAF layer, protecting it several different layers along the way.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:06:08] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> So is this kind of like a white label solution? You are in talks with hosts, many of which I&#8217;m sure we&#8217;ve heard of, but their purchase of the products and services that you sell is white labelled.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:06:20] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> Yes, they may sell us as their own security product. They may also just include us in higher end hosting packages so that the malware detection and remediation and all that kind of stuff is included in your package. It varies from host to host, but most of the time you&#8217;re not seeing the Monarx name out in front, but you&#8217;re benefiting from our services anyway.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:06:40] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> So does that allow you to, because you are cross platform in terms of hosting company, hosting company X, hosting company Y, hosting company A, B, and C. Does that give you a larger depth of knowledge for want of a better word? So you can see that hosting company A&#8217;s got this Linux set up, and these kind of things are happening.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:06:59] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> Yes, it does. It&#8217;s less about their specific setups. I think the most valuable thing of being across many hosts like that, is that we see attacks, or new and novel malware, or those kinds of things happening in pockets and can often then protect against it globally, even though maybe it first started at host A.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By the time it spreads to host B X or Y in your example, we&#8217;ve already been able to understand what that is and block it across the whole realm. So we get a bigger picture, which is super useful. Especially as we start talking about some of the AI stuff and how fast it moves. That&#8217;s really necessary to stay ahead of that curve.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:07:42] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Okay, so let&#8217;s move into that a little bit. And I think if we were having this conversation, let&#8217;s go for four years ago, that seems like a long enough period of time where AI was not really on anybody&#8217;s menu.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And now we seem to be in the era where the human is really being surpassed in almost everything logical, let&#8217;s go with that word. If it can be achieved with some kind of logic then AI seems to have surpassed humans.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And, especially recently, there seems to have been an uptick, not just in the WordPress news cycle, but also just in the general news cycle about, okay, we need to be a little bit more mindful about the products and services that we buy. We need to be more mindful about the security and logging in and credentials and all of that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But specifically in the WordPress space over the last three or four months, I&#8217;ve heard story after story, which was unlike anything I&#8217;d heard before. These kind of chained attacks where, something that a human probably would never have conceived and pulled off is now possible. You spend 25 US cents on an AI agent, wait for six hours, and it&#8217;s come up with these 14 overlapping things, and it can hack WordPress Core and various other things.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So just paint the landscape of how alarming it is, and then presumably you can paint the landscape of how not alarming it is, because how you can mitigate against that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:09:00] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> That&#8217;s fair. Let&#8217;s explain the reality and then let&#8217;s hopefully, help comfort people at least a little. It can be pretty scary. You&#8217;re absolutely right. AI has dramatically changed the game. And the way I like to explain it is it hasn&#8217;t changed the absolute core realities of the game in that there&#8217;s still a bit of cat and mouse. They&#8217;re trying to surpass us. We&#8217;re, trying to stay ahead of them.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the scale and the speed and the complexity at which it is able to happen now is nothing we could have imagined four years ago. Honestly, even two, two and a half years ago. It has moved that fast. And what that looks like are, a few different things.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One, the speed at which AI can find issues in code, potential exploits, vulnerabilities, et cetera, is so much faster than any human. Like the compute power of it doing those logical bits rather than humans doing those logical bits, makes that move so fast. So the number of things being found, and being either reported or exploited, or both, the volume has just gone up dramatically.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And then on the complexity side of it, you are right. A simple example of that, one of the WordPress Core reports that I looked at recently, I needed to print it out and mark it up with a pen to wrap my brain around all these steps that it was taking. When I printed it out, it was 11 pages. 11 pages of like steps and instructions for an actual vulnerability that turned out to be real.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If four years ago that had existed in your piece of software, you would consider your software absolutely secure. No human&#8217;s ever going to find that. No one would ever know about it. And now AI is able to chain all those steps together into something that it can then write scripts to go automate and exploit.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so those two things have both really shifted the game in a way that feels like it can put software owners, software managers, SaaS services, all these things on their back foot. There&#8217;s just such this flood, and such a complex flood coming at you.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:11:10] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> So I guess also the problem is that these things never sleep. So four years ago, every human, maybe they could put 10 hours in at the computer and then they would have to rest. So you get a, breathing space, and and the human can do this one thing.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But that&#8217;s not the case here. With an AI, presumably it could have 10, 50, a hundred, a thousand, the sky is the limit, things happening simultaneously. Just testing absolutely every permutation of everything conceivable. And then coming back with something. I don&#8217;t even know how we compete against that. And obviously we can get into that in a moment.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Is this a moment of despair or is there genuinely a way of getting out ahead of it? Or is it always going to be a case looking into the future where you are going to be reactive instead of proactive? In other words, when you wake up in the morning and you print out the 11 and then next year, the 30, and then the year after that, the 80 page document, how does that make you feel? Are you sanguine or is it just a prophecy of doom.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:12:08] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> I think it is a time of overwhelm, but hopefully not despair. Which is different. And I think that as big technology shifts hit, which AI is a big technology shift. There is often a significant adjustment. And we are at that time, and I am even one that maybe would say, I think it might get a little bit worse before it gets better, but it&#8217;s definitely going to get better.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And I see the path there in some of the foundations that we&#8217;re laying in things that we&#8217;re learning right now during this time of overwhelm, where we&#8217;re feeling flooded like this, is going to put us in a place to start getting into that curve where everything gets better.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And I think that, what&#8217;s the right way to put this? I think that the path there is apparent, but takes some time. And part of that&#8217;s because we have to shift from the being reactive to the being proactive all the time. Because agents move so fast to 24 hours a day, seven days a week. And the second they find a thing, they can immediately, automatically start trying to exploit it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We have to shift to being ahead. Because there is no longer a gap in between when a thing is found and when it&#8217;s exploited, for us to fix the thing. We have to get ahead.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:13:36] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> So, you are obviously deep in the weeds of this, and it sounds like you&#8217;ve got an intuition that at some point in the near to midterm future, you feel like you are going to reach a point where things start to improve. That was the implication, I think of what you said.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What is that intuition? How do you come to the conclusion that there is an opportunity for things to improve. Even if you need to go into the weeds a little bit. I&#8217;m curious as to how it&#8217;s not a prophecy of doom, and how you believe that a moment will arrive where, I can&#8217;t answer that for you. I&#8217;ll just open it up.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:14:06] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> Yeah. So I think that some of this comes from historical experience, right? We&#8217;ve had these kinds of experiences where say, a certain type of hash that we used for security became a thing that hackers could break with the level of computing power that they finally had access to.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And that felt doom and gloom. But also we created better hashing algorithms. We created better things that were able to counteract that. We were able to shift to those, and we were also able to learn from them and think further forward.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So now some of the algorithms that we&#8217;re using aren&#8217;t just better enough to handle current computing, but better enough that we think they&#8217;re going to last a decent ways into the future.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I think that there are similar things with AI now. Where we are leveraging the same kind of tools now that these bad actors are, and we&#8217;re learning how to use them not just to protect against the way the bad actors are using them, but to get ahead enough to stay ahead of them.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And the way that looks, because that sounds maybe too vague to be realistic I guess, is we&#8217;re not just running those same algorithms against our code, or those same models against our code and hoping that we find the stuff before they find it. We&#8217;re instead also looking at how can we push to a different part of the stack? How can we protect against things that we&#8217;ve never seen? How can we start to recognise these patterns so that we can look at behaviours and protect against those, rather than just flaws that need to be patched. It&#8217;s shifting our thinking some, but I think in a way that&#8217;s going to help us get ahead in this game.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:16:03] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Okay. That&#8217;s really interesting. I have a question surrounding how this kind of stuff happens, and I&#8217;m thinking about it from the adversarial&#8217;s point of view. What is that like? Because I have a notion that a decade ago it was individuals, perhaps offices, that&#8217;s probably the wrong word, but, collections of people sitting in a space, but there would be a finite number of them. There may be 10 in a room, one in a room, a hundred in a room.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But I don&#8217;t know if that&#8217;s still the case. Do the adversaries that you are dealing with, do they have a collaborative approach to hacking? Do they share information? And then the flip side of that is do you also, in the industry that you work in, do you share information?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you discover something, does Monarx treat that like it&#8217;s your intellectual property? Or is there a, a whole system of sharing that amongst the community so that everybody benefits from the work that you do? You&#8217;re giving away the hard work that you&#8217;ve done. If that&#8217;s the case.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:16:59] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> So, first let me just say personally, one of the most important things to me is to raise the level of security across the whole internet, because that is better for humanity that relies on it so much, for all kinds of things in our daily lives, and for sharing information and making progress forward as people.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I think that I&#8217;m not alone in the space. Like I think that a lot of us that were drawn to this security space are drawn to it because it is a way to improve life for everybody. Will there be some intellectual property for individual companies? Yes, but I think it&#8217;s a lot more in how we approach the thing, and less we&#8217;re not going to tell people about this new vulnerability, or this new method that we found. Because we do want to be able to see the end user protected. Like that is the way we&#8217;re going.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Backing up to your, how do the adversaries work? It&#8217;s been a long time, I think since they sat in rooms together. They&#8217;re now virtual rooms, right? They can be spread all over the world, but still be working together. And they definitely do. They share information around. For us to be able to keep up with that, we have to share information around too. That is super important.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Simple example of that, the WordPress Security Team. Let me step back from Monarx and talk more of the space in general. The WordPress Security Team. You talked about how for the last few months you&#8217;ve seen maybe more security releases going out from WordPress and stuff. The way that the WordPress Security Team treats those, when we find out about them, and we triage them, and we realise that they&#8217;re real, and we start figuring out what our approach is to patching them. We then have a whole private Slack channel that has other people in it that can help us get protection out. Broader, wider by sharing some of that information sooner.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cloudflare can maybe put some rules in place, and protect tonnes of people before the WordPress release goes out. So can some of the big hosts. So can some of the security groups. And so not only do we share that information, we&#8217;ve built it into our processes as a must, because that&#8217;s the only way to really do it right, and really protect as many people as possible. Because our adversaries are doing that. And so we have to as well. And we&#8217;ve just realised that, learned from it and made that the right way to do it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:19:26] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> I&#8217;m just going to flip back to the comment that you made a moment ago where you said that you woke up and you printed out this summation. Let&#8217;s go with that. And it was 11 pages, and presumably that took a certain amount of your day to parse and understand.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How likely is it that that process will begin to run away from humans&#8217; capacity to actually do it? So as an example, let&#8217;s say that a year from now that thing that you print out is 50 pages or 80 pages. Just the reading of it would be a whole morning, let alone the understanding of how those layers, and the stacks and the way that they&#8217;re overlapping and reliant upon each other.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Have we now, or have you now as an industry, have you almost handed the responsibility to figuring that stuff out, figuring out what the adversaries are doing? Has that gone to AI from your part as well? So is it AI versus AI basically, which seems very dystopian.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:20:18] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> We definitely pit AI against AI. It&#8217;s an extremely useful tool to combat itself essentially. And yeah, even for that 11 page one. Yes, I had to read through it and figure it out. but I did use AI to help summarise that. What are the steps that I need to do? Where does this actually track to in the code base?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I use it as an assistive tool in getting through that. And I do think that the longer the reports get, the more that&#8217;s going to be necessary. And now I personally, and several other people that I work with, have built testing rigs in AI, in various models, that are purpose built to help with this.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I can give it a report, in the repository and it can check its viability. It can see if that&#8217;s simplified. Check certain things. Is this a thing that requires some level of authentication, all these things that we use to have to do manually. And now we&#8217;re sharing around these sort of test rigs, or assessment rigs, that use this so that we can all use them, and grow them faster and make them better and make them more efficient. Because we are pitting AI against AI in many ways.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And as human, I think that it&#8217;s still important for the human to guide the process in a way that&#8217;s ensuring the fix is forward thinking enough, and that it&#8217;s in the right place and whatnot. Because in the end, the software is largely used by humans. But, in order to scale to the level that AI is pushing us to scale to, the human needs to be the decision maker, and possibly the opinionated one on form, and function, but not the logical power behind any of it now.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:22:01] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Do you get the sense that WordPress itself is the target, or is WordPress just a bit of collateral damage? Are these adversaries of yours, are they specifically targeting WordPress because it&#8217;s got this giant footprint? Or is it more a case of this is just the adversaries just spraying and scatter gunning, and it just so happens that every so often they stumble across a WordPress thing.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:22:23] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> There is spray and scatter gun, just not running WordPress, or running your own bespoke thing is not enough to get away from AI trying to break your thing. But the bigger you are, the bigger the potential benefit from finding an exploit in you. And therefore, the more you are, like the bigger you are, the target is on you.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So WordPress has a big target, but it&#8217;s not just WordPress. Some big hosting companies also have a big target on their infrastructure in the same way that they&#8217;re targeting WordPress, their targeting, maybe a Hosting or a GoDaddy or a Blue. Someone big that has many people on it, not because they think their security is lax, or that they have some reason to suspect that there&#8217;s vulnerabilities, but because the payoff of finding a vulnerability there can be big. And so there&#8217;s a big focus there.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So yes, the bigger you are, the bigger the target. But that doesn&#8217;t mean that the scattershot isn&#8217;t also happening. And that they&#8217;re not also hitting small targets.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:23:24] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah. I suppose there would&#8217;ve had to have been a lot of joined up thinking in the past from a human to discover that, &#8220;Okay, this thing with Linux over here, okay we&#8217;ll just store that somewhere. But then there&#8217;s a PHP thing over here. Oh, and then curiously, there&#8217;s a PHP thing in WordPress, which,&#8221; that would&#8217;ve all had to have been conjured up by a human. And the memory of that would be difficult to maintain over time. But presumably the AI can just remember that forevermore. Store that PHP thing for the next decade and suddenly whip it out when it&#8217;s happens to coincide with some other thing. It&#8217;s fairly bleak.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Okay, so in terms of WordPress specifically, what is the incentive specifically? Why would somebody, let&#8217;s say somebody was coming after WordPress. What is it that they gain? What could they possibly have that benefits them off the back of a, let&#8217;s go for WordPress Core vulnerability which is, I don&#8217;t know, you can successfully log in as an admin or whatever it may be. What do they actually gain?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:24:17] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> It really comes down to money in end, if I&#8217;m honest. WordPress Core powers tens of millions of sites all over the web. Some of those have valuable stuff on them. Many of them frankly don&#8217;t. But that doesn&#8217;t mean that they&#8217;re worthless. They can be used, you&#8217;ve seen pharma ads and stuff showing up on a site, and it&#8217;s a pay per click kind of thing. And someone&#8217;s making some money off of putting not great ads your site. Even if you don&#8217;t get a lot of traffic, they&#8217;re making something. And when you&#8217;re looking at the potential of this vulnerability could apply to tens of millions of sites, you don&#8217;t need to make much per site.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But also, you could use that site as a way to have broad compute power to attack some other site. You&#8217;re using tens of thousands of sites to do it. Each one of them is on some separate IP. So now you have a distributed attack that&#8217;s harder to block than if you were doing the same attack from one place.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But you&#8217;re only doing that because it costs a lot to buy your own distributed power from everywhere. So you&#8217;re essentially stealing it and it&#8217;s making it, there&#8217;s some sort of worthwhile monetary value from it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so you may think, they can&#8217;t make anything off my site. They don&#8217;t have to. Your site&#8217;s one small bit in a huge array of sites that they&#8217;re trying to get, to get some monetary benefit in the end.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:25:40] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> So there&#8217;s no one size fits all. But money is essentially the broad overlapping thing?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:25:46] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> I mean, there are exceptions to that, where people are doing it for some political reason. Or some moral directive that they have or whatever. But the vast majority can be traced back to there&#8217;s money in it somewhere.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:25:59] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> I wonder curiously, because you mentioned about things like, pay per click style, you take oversight and you flood it with, I don&#8217;t know, nonsense about the thing that you&#8217;ve got and you want the world to notice. I wonder if curiously, people&#8217;s adoption of AI and that different way that we&#8217;re searching for things will actually impoverish that way of monetizing, because simply nobody&#8217;s actually looking on a search, well, increasingly people seem to be relying less and less on a search engine, and so maybe that kind of bit of it will dry up. Who knows?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:26:27] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> I love the optimism there. And I would like to think that those ads specifically probably will at some point. But the root of how those work is, I&#8217;ve broken into a site and I can inject some JavaScript ad, or some something like that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And if those ads stop being valuable, then maybe I can inject some AI directives so that when an AI agent of some kind hits that site, it&#8217;s getting some sneaky thing snuck into its memory, or pulled in as a skill, that can then use that AI agent for nefarious purposes in the future.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I think that we can&#8217;t lower our guard against those things, because our adversaries will pivot and reuse it for something else. And so we will continue to protect against it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:27:13] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> I&#8217;m going to peel back the contents of your head a little bit here. Because I&#8217;ve often wondered what the characteristic is of somebody like you who constantly facing this tidal wave of things. You&#8217;ve got to get up every morning, and every morning you could potentially wake up to the next big thing.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How do you just remain calm in the face of all of it? It&#8217;s a peculiar question, I realise, but tomorrow could be the next big thing. The day after that could be the next big thing. I&#8217;m imagining on most days now there is not necessarily the next big thing, but there&#8217;s a thing. It&#8217;s like you&#8217;re a fireman or something, except that there&#8217;s a fire going off in every district of town, and you are constantly busy and you never get to put the fire hose down. You&#8217;re just constantly at work.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:27:52] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> Some of us love that little consistent regular shot of adrenaline, and we get it in different ways than the firemen. But, honestly, I love complex problems solve. I love the challenges. Do I get exhausted and burnt out at times when they really do come every day for X amount of time? Sure, I&#8217;m human, I need to sleep, et cetera. But I think that it&#8217;s because I enjoy figuring out those really difficult problems, that I enjoy being in this space. And even specifically on this side of the space, the white hat side.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:28:26] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah. I suppose it&#8217;s like playing a good opponent at chess. You enjoy the chess game, even though it&#8217;s a hard thing and it stretches your brain. You play the chess over and over again because it&#8217;s a pleasurable thing to have your brain exercised in that way.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:28:39] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> And it&#8217;s like the more you do it the better chance you have at winning at chess. And I think it&#8217;s the same way in our game, right? Like the more you&#8217;re doing it, the more ways you&#8217;re finding to outmanoeuvre and to essentially win, and keep people safe online. And that&#8217;s, that&#8217;s exciting.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:28:56] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> You get the fist pump moment do you, there&#8217;s once in a while where you literally figure something out and you&#8217;re like, I nailed that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:29:04] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> You absolutely do.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:29:04] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Okay. Yeah. That&#8217;s really interesting. Your bio reads like an open source manifesto. I know that open source has been the thing for you throughout your career. I imagine that you could have gone into proprietary security and all of that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But how does open source, particularly WordPress, how does that approach to developing software, how does that benefit the position that we can take and the security posture that you can take, and the reliability that you can have in things like WordPress going forwards? In your head, does it offer a superior model for fighting the adversaries?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:29:35] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> Yes, in my opinion it offers a superior model for fighting the adversaries. And the reason is actually still the same as it was 20 years ago when I started doing this. And I&#8217;ll explain why in just a second, but first, the reason is because we are able to benefit from many intelligent people, many more than any single company could with their source code.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Looking at our source code, and finding the weaknesses and even pitching in to help fix them. Hundreds of thousands, or millions, of people around the world are looking at our source code, finding those issues, and able to help pitch in and fix them, or report them to us so that we can, by having all that out there, it&#8217;s sort of like a building&#8217;s not less likely to collapse because no one saw the crack. It&#8217;s actually better that people are inspecting it, and finding those things and making sure it&#8217;s done right.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, that has shifted a little bit now, where in the past our adversaries looked at our source code too, right? They would immediately look at our repository when new things went out. As a matter of fact, when I ran the security team, I stopped committing stuff for a while, because it turned out that was a tell that this thing was probably a security issue, and people would look at that and try to figure it out.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So now the adversaries are using AI to watch our source code, which is also open to them, 24 7 and really look deep at it. But so are those many thousands of people using our source code for good. And so it&#8217;s still true that we have so many people on our side in helping us out, because our source code is out there because we&#8217;re open source, and it outweighs the bad. We find things faster because of that, and ultimately end up with more secure software more rapidly.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:31:36] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Is there ever going to become a time where the amount of time that a vulnerability is available becomes moot? So in the past, a six hour window, where something wasn&#8217;t patched in WordPress Core, that&#8217;s a thing, but it&#8217;s not really a big thing. Maybe a month where something&#8217;s unpatched, that&#8217;s a big, I&#8217;m just wondering if in the future with the nature of the adversaries that you described and the tooling that they can bring to bear, if even like a three or five second window is going to become a thing.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:32:05] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> That is possible. We&#8217;re not at the three to five second window yet, so that&#8217;s good. I&#8217;ll let everybody relax a little bit. But the time from vulnerability disclosure to exploitation has shrunk dramatically over the last few years.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We did in fact used to have weeks, and then eventually days where it was okay to find out about the vulnerability, and responsible people, or responsible hosts, or responsible software companies could see that disclosure, patch the problem before there was much exploitation at all. And that&#8217;s now hours for major vulnerabilities.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a matter of fact, we did a Monarx in conjunction with Patchstack, did like a year in review, thing looking back at last year. And we saw that for the more major vulnerabilities, it was about five hours. That&#8217;s not enough time for, you know, what happens if it happens in the middle of the night for a host who&#8217;s constantly monitoring that, immediately patching it, that&#8217;s difficult. And I do think that it will continue to shrink. And that that time that causes risk will be shorter and shorter.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And, we saw that with the recent wp2shell WordPress exploit. Once we released the patch, and everything was out there, the spike of exploitation that we as Monarx saw, like monitoring stuff happened within 30 minutes. Honestly, even a little bit faster than that. But the big spike started coming in about 30 minutes later, and that is just really fast.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But on the flip side, all that coordination that I talked about that WordPress did, had many millions of people already protected by then. And that&#8217;s how we have to look at it. We have to say, this is eventually going to get down to three to five seconds being a problem. How do we get ahead of it? And that&#8217;s what we&#8217;re trying to do.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:34:03] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> So a timely thing at the moment is this new innovation in the WordPress space called Protect the Shire. And Protect the Shire is the, a time bound moment where a plugin that has an update, it can&#8217;t be updated at the moment, I believe it&#8217;s standing at something in the region of six hours. On the face of it, that seems like a really excellent posture. But then there&#8217;s the flip side of that. If an exploit becomes discovered, and nobody can update their plugin for six hours, then that&#8217;s a big six hour window we&#8217;ve just painted. in the future where milliseconds may count. What do you think about that? It&#8217;s a interesting innovation. It&#8217;s something new. It was worth a try. Do you think that&#8217;s the way forward?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:34:41] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> I think it, was not only worth a try. I think it was a really good choice, and I think it will continue to be. We are seeing that a lot of current attacks are essentially supply chain attacks. How can we compromise whether it&#8217;s some package, an NPM package or something like that. Or whether it&#8217;s a plugin that&#8217;s gotten sold to a nefarious person, or even just hacked into and taken over by a nefarious person. That is happening more and this six hour gap helps protect against that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But it can&#8217;t be a hard and fast, locked in stone, can never have exceptions, rule. And the truth is, it&#8217;s not. If there is a vulnerability in your plugin, or especially in a major plugin, reach out to the WordPress Security Team because we can coordinate a faster release, we can make an exception to that rule when it&#8217;s necessary.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And I think that for security fixes that are clearly security fixes that exception iss an easy one to make, because we do want to protect immediately. But slowing things down enough to make sure that there&#8217;s not been some sort of supply chain issue that is actually going to cause a vulnerability rather than fix one, is smart.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so I think that it will find the right balance there as we continue to move forward, and figure out how to make better processes around this, to make it easier to do the right thing all the time, and know exactly which of those right things. But I think at the moment we&#8217;re in a pretty good place there and continuing to find the exact right place.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:36:18] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> It feels from the outside as if security&#8217;s fairly binary. On the one hand, adversary on the other hand, good guys. On the one hand hacked, on the other hand, not hacked. It&#8217;s black and white. But it seems from everything that you&#8217;ve been talking about today, that you are occupying a really grey area. You&#8217;re just trying to figure out what the path is forward. You&#8217;re constantly staring into the future trying to figure out what the adversaries are doing. Trying to patch, trying to make sure that everything is as good as it possibly can be. And I hadn&#8217;t really thought about it in that way. It&#8217;s not, there is no destination here where everything&#8217;s white. It&#8217;s a journey and every day&#8217;s going to be a bit grey. There&#8217;s going to be a bit of black and a bit of white, but a lot of grey in the middle.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:36:58] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> I don&#8217;t really look at it as grey, but I can see where you&#8217;re going there. But I think that there is this black and white, and then there&#8217;s sort of the cloudy. The further forward you look, the more difficult it is to know exactly where the black and white are always going to be. And some of that sort of comes across as grey. It&#8217;s a little blurry. You can&#8217;t quite figure it out.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But you&#8217;re right. there&#8217;s some prediction. There&#8217;s some, we think that moving this way is going to cause more white and less black. And that&#8217;s what we&#8217;re, that&#8217;s what we&#8217;re constantly aiming for. But you can&#8217;t just say turning right always makes things more white. Because sometimes there could be black over on that side somewhere, right? You&#8217;re really trying to be predictive, but not just randomly predictive, right?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many of the people like myself that are trying to help guide this path forward, and even more than me, some of the people like Matt, who instituted that wait policy and some of the people that are running the WordPress Security Team, we have decades of experience watching this, that&#8217;s helping to inform our predictions. And so it&#8217;s not, we&#8217;re not just willy-nilly guessing. And I think that&#8217;s important to point out to the people that rely on us, to help guide them to the right space going forward.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:38:02] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah. Okay. So my schooling in chemistry was pretty basic, but I know that if I want to understand chemistry, my quickest way to do that is to rely on an expert, is to go and find a chemist who has years of experience. And, the same would be true here. I think most of us have probably not got the capacity to actually get a hold of what you&#8217;re saying. We, understand that your expertise is what we need to be listening to. But I&#8217;m just wondering for a typical WordPress user of whom many listen to this podcast, they have a WordPress site, but they&#8217;re not really interested in security, other than how it may impact their business.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So I&#8217;m going to ask for some very basic advice here. What would be the 1, 2, 3 things that somebody using WordPress with no security credentials whatsoever. What would be the few things that you would advise them to either go and read, or go and do, or go and think about?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:38:51] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> Yeah, so I think the biggest thing that I would encourage them to do, is essentially position themselves in such a way that they are relying on the experts, right? You&#8217;re not an expert and that&#8217;s okay. No one can be an expert in everything. But there are some things you can do to position yourself such that you&#8217;re benefiting from those experts.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of those is updating as fast as possible. So WordPress auto updates turned on, those kinds of things. This WordPress Security Team that I&#8217;m talking about that has so much expertise in the area, and their whole focus is trying to make sure that WordPress is always secure. That lets you rely on them to help keep your site secure.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I think in similar ways, you want to find the right host that is also doing those security focused things for you, so that you don&#8217;t need to. And maybe that&#8217;s asking your host, what do you do to keep me safe? We talk about security, like the best security is layered security. It&#8217;s almost like having a gate at the complex, but also having a lock on your door, right? Those kinds of things. You can ask your host, what do you do to protect me in a layered way?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And maybe that question doesn&#8217;t make sense to you, and maybe even their answers don&#8217;t make sense to you, but if they have an answer, that&#8217;s good for you. It means that you can rely on their expertise.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And then stepping out of the obvious space to give a third thing that people should be doing. And this is, this may sound out in left field, but you should get some form of dark web monitoring for yourself, for your own credentials. And whether that&#8217;s going to someplace like, Have I Been Pwned, and looking at your own email address, and passwords and seeing if they&#8217;ve been in some breached data from somewhere, and are now being sold on the dark web. Or whether that&#8217;s using some service that offers it. I think that&#8217;s important, more so now than it&#8217;s ever been.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because one of the other things that AI is doing that it&#8217;s particularly good at is collecting all this massive amount of breach data that&#8217;s happened over the last couple decades, that&#8217;s being sold on the dark web. Collating it all and saying, oh, we see that, gosh, 15 years ago, an account that Aaron had was in a breach. And we now know one of his passwords.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And granted it&#8217;s 15 years old, but it&#8217;s very easy for that AI to then say, where is Aaron now? What&#8217;s he doing? What can we learn about him? He works at Monarx. I wonder if this password works for his Monarx account. I wonder if this password works for the bank that he&#8217;s at. Or this other tool that we see that he uses. Let&#8217;s try all his social media accounts.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so knowing whether that&#8217;s out there and being able to, you can&#8217;t get rid of that data, but being able to do things to protect yourself because you now know it&#8217;s out there is more important than it&#8217;s ever been.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:41:47] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> I hope you take this in the spirit in which it&#8217;s offered, but I really do wish to live in a world where you don&#8217;t have a job.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:41:55] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> Me too.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:41:56] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> But, am glad that we live in a world where you do, somebody like you does have a job. So I hope that landed correctly.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:42:02] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> If I could work to the point where I could work myself out of a job, I would find a new career and I would feel so accomplished, you couldn&#8217;t even imagine it. I&#8217;m okay with that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:42:12] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah. Good. Aaron, just before we wrap up, is there a place where you hang out online where people could poll you if they&#8217;ve got a question, or any thoughts about what we&#8217;ve talked about?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:42:21] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> Yeah, if you&#8217;re looking for me professionally, you can find me Monarx.com, M-O-N-A-R-X.com. I also have aarondcampbell.com if you want some of my own more personal takes on security and things. And you can find me on Bluesky or the WordPress Slack. Those are probably the biggest places I&#8217;m at.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:42:40] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> What I will do, dear listener, into the show notes, if you go to wptavern.com and you search for the episode with Aaron Campbell, you&#8217;ll be able to find the links. I will dig out the Bluesky, and the various social links and the Monarx website and what have you, so you don&#8217;t have to hunt around too much. Go there wptavern.com. And Aaron, thank you so much for chatting to me today.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:43:01] <strong>Aaron D Campbell:</strong> Thank you. This was a really fun talk.</p>\n</div></details>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the podcast today we have Aaron D Campbell.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Aaron is a seasoned veteran in both the internet and WordPress space, with over 25 years of experience spanning agency work, security products, hosting giants like GoDaddy and Newfold, and now his role at Monarx, a company focused on malware detection and remediation, particularly for web hosts. Hes led the WordPress Security Team, has been deeply involved in shaping security practices, and remains tightly connected to the WordPress ecosystem.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We talk about the rapidly changing landscape of WordPress security, specifically how the advent of AI has escalated the speed, scale, and complexity of attacks, moving the security game from a battle of wits, to a battle of compute power. Aaron discusses how attacks that once required human ingenuity are now orchestrated by AI agents capable of chaining vulnerabilities that humans would struggle to conceive.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We get into the shift from a reactive to a proactive security posture across the WordPress ecosystem. Aaron explains how both attackers and defenders are now deploying AI, leading to an arms race where AI is used to combat AI, and where collaboration among security teams is just as crucial as information-sharing among adversaries.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We chat about the motivators behind attacks, spoiler, its almost always about money, and the specific vulnerabilities WordPress faces as the most popular CMS on the web. Of interest is the narrowing window between when vulnerabilities are discovered and when theyre exploited, how supply chain attacks are on the rise, and what the WordPress “Protect the Shire” innovation means for plugin security.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Towards the end of the episode, we explored practical security advice for everyday WordPress users, with Aaron recommending actionable tips on updates, choosing security-minded hosts, and monitoring for compromised credentials.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If youre concerned about how AI is reshaping the WordPress security landscape, and want to know how the community is responding, this episode is for you.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Useful links</h2>\n\n\n\n<p

olarak da mevcuttur.</a></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress has never been merely a content management system for building websites to me. As a blind web developer, it showed me that I could create my own field of work, solve real problems, and contribute to the same open-source community as people around the world. The publication of my <a href=\"https://haz.wordpress.org/plugins/ozd-katalog-eklentisi/\">OZD Katalog</a> plugin in the WordPress.org directory became one of the most visible results of that long journey.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-exploring-the-web-without-looking\">Exploring The Web Without Looking</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My name is Sadık Özdoğan, and I live in <a href=\"https://www.google.com/maps/place/Ankara,+T%C3%BCrkiye/@38.7856907,30.5045406,7.28z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x14d347d520732db1:0xbdc57b0c0842b8d!8m2!3d39.9333635!4d32.8597419!16zL20vMGp5dw?entry=ttu&amp;g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDgyMy4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D\">Ankara, Türkiye</a>. I studied Web Design and Coding at Anadolu University in <a href=\"https://www.google.com/maps/place/Eski%C5%9Fehir,+T%C3%BCrkiye/@39.2123552,31.4230128,7.55z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x14cc3e08220c0e5f:0xbc89395938049a08!8m2!3d39.7667061!4d30.5256311!16zL20vMDcyeWZ2?entry=ttu&amp;g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDgyMy4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D\">Eskişehir</a>. Literature, poetry, and music are important parts of my life, but over the years web technology has also become a powerful means of expression and production for me. Because I am blind, I use my computer with the <a href=\"https://www.nvaccess.org/\">NVDA</a> screen reader. Instead of seeing the visual layout of a screen, I follow the structure of pages, headings, links, form fields, and text through synthesized speech.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This way of working means that a seemingly small accessibility error can become a complete barrier. An unlabeled button, an incorrectly built form, a message that is understandable only through color or imagery, or a control that cannot be reached with a keyboard may look like a minor imperfection to others, yet prevent me from completing a task. I did not want these barriers to distance me from technology. Instead, they encouraged me to understand how systems work and to create my own solutions.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-discovering-wordpress\">Discovering WordPress</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Discovering WordPress was an important turning point in that search. During my early years with it, I was mainly a user. I built websites, published articles, customized themes, tried plugins, and searched for solutions whenever something failed. The fact that much of the administration experience followed a recognizable structure and used text, headings, links, and standard form controls was valuable to me. WordPress was not perfectly accessible in every situation, but it gave me an open space in which I could publish my own content and gradually improve my skills.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At first, I worked with existing themes and plugins. When I encountered a problem, I experimented with settings, read documentation and tutorials, and tried to understand the solution. In time, I realized that using tools was no longer enough for me. I wanted to know why a theme behaved in a certain way, which file controlled a function, and how an existing feature could be changed. That curiosity, which began with small code edits, gradually carried me from the user side of WordPress to the development side.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-building-without-looking\">Building Without Looking</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Customizing <a href=\"https://generatepress.com/\">GeneratePress</a> was one of my first serious learning experiences. I began by developing my own website and later built a radio website for a friend. I worked on themes for news, blogs, companies, and radio projects. Every project introduced a new problem that I had to break down and solve. Each detail I managed to fix increased not only my technical knowledge but also my confidence.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My working method as a blind developer is different in some respects. I cannot inspect indentation or the visual appearance of a page simply by looking at the screen. I move between files, lines, and components with the keyboard and turn the information spoken by my screen reader into a mental model. I ask people I trust for visual feedback when necessary, while relying on standards, testing tools, and repeated trials for technical validation. This has taught me that accessibility is not an optional feature added at the end of a project. Clear code, accurate labels, understandable language, and predictable behavior make technology easier for everyone.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-first-plugin\">A First Plugin</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a long time, I wanted to publish a plugin of my own. However, there was an obstacle greater than my technical limitations: I did not trust myself enough. Questions such as “What if I cannot do it?”, “What if my code is not good enough?”, and “What if the plugin is rejected?” kept me at the starting line. Sometimes people wait for their work to become perfect and therefore never share it. My real change began when I accepted that I could start before I was perfect and continue learning along the way.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Artificial intelligence tools also supported my learning process. They helped me examine questions in greater detail, understand pieces of code, identify possible mistakes, and turn ideas into more systematic plans. They did not imagine the project on my behalf or create it independently. I was the person who recognized the need, decided which features mattered, tested the result, and accepted responsibility for it. Artificial intelligence, my screen reader, and my development tools all served the same purpose: helping me turn an idea in my mind into a working product that other people could use.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The idea for OZD Katalog emerged while I was building a website for a chair company. The company needed a clear and organized way to present its products. I initially created a catalog structure inside the theme. It could have remained a solution built only for that single project. As the work progressed, however, I asked myself: “Why should I leave this inside one theme? Why not turn it into an independent plugin and allow other people to use it?”<br /><br />That question was the true beginning of OZD Katalog. My aim was to help businesses display products in a catalog without requiring the full complexity of an e-commerce system. Administrators needed to be able to add product names, images, descriptions, categories, and relevant details in the dashboard, while visitors needed a clear way to browse the information. A need I had encountered in a real client project was becoming a general solution that could help others.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I prepared the earliest version of the plugin about a year before its release. Along the way, I learned that there is a major difference between code that works and a plugin that is ready for the WordPress.org directory. Security checks, capability controls, nonces, sanitization, and output escaping had to be handled carefully. Text needed to be translatable, files had to follow the correct structure, interface messages had to be understandable, and the code needed to follow WordPress standards. Every correction improved not only the plugin but also my discipline as a developer.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-releasing-my-first-plugin\">Releasing My First Plugin</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eventually, I submitted OZD Katalog for review. I made the changes requested by the review team, and the plugin was approved on August 2, 2026. Receiving that approval meant far more to me than completing a technical process. I was now contributing my own code to the platform I had used for years. I had once been a user who installed plugins and changed settings; now I was the developer of a plugin that other WordPress users could install.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OZD Katalog may not be the largest or most complex plugin in the WordPress ecosystem. Its value to me lies in the change it represents. It is my concrete answer to the question, “Can I really do this?” It showed me that blindness does not prevent me from creating and that, with suitable tools, patience, a willingness to learn, and honest feedback, I can contribute to open source.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-real-value-of-wordpress\">The Real Value Of WordPress</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress did not magically promise me financial freedom. It gave me something more fundamental and lasting: a place where I could publish ideas, build projects, and solve problems for clients and friends. On sadikozdogan.com.tr, I publish technical articles, share my projects, and pass on what I learn in Turkish. I work on other web projects, including imagefilex.com, and continue developing ideas for themes and plugins. Each project helps me establish a stronger and more independent place in the digital world.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I especially want to tell this story to disabled people, to people in Türkiye and similar environments who want to create technology, and to anyone who delays the first step because they do not feel qualified enough. You do not need to possess every answer before you begin. Accessibility barriers, financial limitations, the absence of a strong technical community around you, or the fear of making mistakes may slow your progress. Still, beginning with one small and genuine problem can eventually take you somewhere you never expected.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is also what I value most about open source. You can learn from code someone else developed years ago, study documentation, work according to standards created by a community, and finally make your own contribution available to others. Becoming part of that chain is not simply a matter of publishing code. It means believing that knowledge can be shared and that people with different circumstances can participate in creating technology.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am now preparing to improve OZD Katalog with new features and language options. I also plan to continue building plugins, themes, and accessible applications. My goal is not only to release more products. I want to question how the tools I use work for blind users and, wherever possible, create solutions that are clear, lightweight, and accessible.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My WordPress journey has taught me that the greatest barrier is not always a lack of technical knowledge. Sometimes the real barrier is believing that our voice and our work have little value. OZD Katalog began as a small idea, answered a real need, and became a plugin available to everyone through WordPress.org. For me, this is not an ending. It is a new beginning: a journey from user to creator, from hesitation to sharing, and from dreaming about contribution to actually making one.</p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" />\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"turkce\">Ekranın Ötesinde Üretmek: WordPress, Erişilebilirlik ve OZD Katalog Hikâyem</h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress benim için yalnızca internet sitesi kurmaya yarayan bir içerik yönetim sistemi olmadı. Bana, görme engelli bir web geliştiricisi olarak kendi çalışma alanımı kurabileceğimi, karşılaştığım sorunlara çözüm üretebileceğimi ve dünyanın farklı yerlerindeki insanlarla aynı açık kaynak topluluğuna katkıda bulunabileceğimi gösterdi. <a href=\"https://haz.wordpress.org/plugins/ozd-katalog-eklentisi/\">OZD Katalog</a> eklentisinin WordPress.orgda yayımlanması ise bu uzun yolculuğun en görünür sonuçlarından biri oldu.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ben Sadık Özdoğan. <a href=\"https://www.google.com/maps/place/Ankara,+T%C3%BCrkiye/@38.7856907,30.5045406,7.28z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x14d347d520732db1:0xbdc57b0c0842b8d!8m2!3d39.9333635!4d32.8597419!16zL20vMGp5dw?entry=ttu&amp;g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDgyMy4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D\">Türkiyenin Ankara</a> şehrinde yaşıyorum. <a href=\"https://www.google.com/maps/place/Eski%C5%9Fehir,+T%C3%BCrkiye/@39.2123552,31.4230128,7.55z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x14cc3e08220c0e5f:0xbc89395938049a08!8m2!3d39.7667061!4d30.5256311!16zL20vMDcyeWZ2?entry=ttu&amp;g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDgyMy4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D\">Eskişehir</a> <a href=\"https://www.anadolu.edu.tr/en\">Anadolu Üniversitesi</a> Web Tasarımı ve Kodlama Bölümünde eğitim aldım. Edebiyat, şiir ve müzik hayatımın önemli parçaları olsa da yıllar içinde web teknolojileri de benim için güçlü bir üretim alanına dönüştü. Görme engelli olduğum için bilgisayarı <a href=\"https://www.nvaccess.org/\">NVDA</a> ekran okuyucusuyla kullanıyorum. Ekrandaki görsel düzeni doğrudan görmek yerine sayfaların yapısını, başlıklarını, bağlantılarını, form alanlarını ve metinlerini ekran okuyucunun sesiyle takip ediyorum.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bu çalışma biçimi bazen bir internet sitesindeki küçük bir erişilebilirlik hatasını bile büyük bir engele dönüştürebiliyor. Etiketi bulunmayan bir düğme, yanlış kurulmuş bir form, yalnızca görsel olarak anlaşılabilen bir uyarı ya da klavyeyle ulaşılamayan bir alan, başkaları için küçük bir kusur gibi görünürken benim için işlemi tamamen durdurabiliyor. Buna rağmen teknolojiyle arama mesafe koymak istemedim. Tam tersine, sistemlerin nasıl çalıştığını öğrenmeye ve kendi çözümlerimi üretmeye yöneldim.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress ile tanışmam bu arayışın önemli dönüm noktalarından biriydi. İlk yıllarda onu daha çok bir kullanıcı olarak tanıdım. Siteler kurdum, yazılar yayımladım, temaları özelleştirdim, eklentiler denedim ve karşılaştığım sorunlara çözümler aradım. Yönetim panelinin belirli bir düzene sahip olması ve birçok işlemin metinler, başlıklar ve standart form alanları üzerinden yürütülmesi benim için önemliydi. Her şey kusursuz derecede erişilebilir değildi; yine de WordPress, kendi içeriklerimi yayımlayabileceğim ve zamanla geliştirebileceğim açık bir alan sağladı.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Başlangıçta hazır tema ve eklentilerle çalışıyordum. Bir sorun çıktığında farklı ayarları deniyor, belge ve eğitimleri okuyup çözümü bulmaya çalışıyordum. Zamanla yalnızca bir aracı kullanan kişi olmakla yetinmediğimi fark ettim. Bir temada neden belirli bir davranışın ortaya çıktığını, bir fonksiyonun hangi dosyada çalıştığını ve bir özelliğin nasıl değiştirilebileceğini merak etmeye başladım. Küçük kod düzenlemeleriyle başlayan bu merak, beni giderek geliştirme tarafına taşıdı.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://generatepress.com/\">GeneratePress</a> üzerinde yaptığım özelleştirmeler ilk ciddi öğrenme alanlarımdan biri oldu. Önce kendi web sitemi geliştirdim. Ardından bir arkadaşım için radyo sitesi hazırladım. Farklı ihtiyaçlara göre temalar üzerinde çalıştım; haber, blog, firma ve radyo projeleri geliştirdim. Her proje yeni bir sorunla karşılaşmam, o sorunu parçalara ayırmam ve çalışan bir çözüm üretmem anlamına geliyordu. Çözdüğüm her ayrıntı teknik bilgimin yanında özgüvenimi de artırdı.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Görme engelli bir geliştirici olarak çalışma yöntemim bazı yönleriyle farklı. Kodun girintilerini ve sayfanın görsel görünümünü ekranı izleyerek kontrol edemiyorum. Dosyalar, satırlar ve bileşenler arasında klavyeyle dolaşıyorum; ekran okuyucunun aktardığı bilgiyi zihnimde bir yapıya dönüştürüyorum. Tasarımlarda güvendiğim kişilerden görsel geri bildirim alıyor, teknik kontrollerde ise standartlardan, test araçlarından ve tekrar tekrar denemekten yararlanıyorum. Bu süreç bana erişilebilirliğin yalnızca kullanıcı arayüzüne sonradan eklenen bir özellik olmadığını öğretti. Açık ve düzenli kod, doğru etiketler, anlaşılır metinler ve öngörülebilir davranışlar herkesin işini kolaylaştırıyor.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Uzun süre kendi eklentimi yayımlama fikrim vardı. Fakat bu hedefin önünde teknik eksiklerden daha büyük bir engel bulunuyordu: Kendime yeterince güvenmiyordum. “Ya yapamazsam?”, “Ya kodum yetersiz bulunursa?”, “Ya eklentim reddedilirse?” gibi sorular beni başlangıç çizgisinde tutuyordu. İnsan bazen çalışmasının kusursuz olmasını beklerken onu hiç paylaşamayabiliyor. Benim için değişim, kusursuzluğu beklemek yerine öğrenerek ilerlemeyi kabul ettiğimde başladı.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yapay zekâ araçları da öğrenme sürecimde yardımcı oldu. Sorularımı daha ayrıntılı biçimde incelememi, kod parçalarını anlamamı, olası hataları görmemi ve fikirlerimi daha düzenli bir plana dönüştürmemi sağladı. Ancak benim yerime fikir üretmedi ya da projeyi tek başına kurmadı. İhtiyacı belirleyen, hangi özelliğin gerekli olduğuna karar veren, ortaya çıkan sonucu test eden ve sorumluluğunu alan bendim. Yapay zekâ, ekran okuyucu ve geliştirme araçları benim için aynı amaca hizmet eden yardımcılar oldu: Zihnimdeki fikri çalışan ve insanların kullanabileceği bir ürüne dönüştürmek.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OZD Katalog fikri, bir sandalye firması için internet sitesi hazırlarken doğdu. Firmanın ürünlerini düzenli ve anlaşılır biçimde sunmak gerekiyordu. İlk olarak temanın içinde çalışan bir katalog yapısı hazırladım. Bu, yalnızca o projeye özel bir çözüm olabilirdi. Fakat çalışma ilerledikçe kendime şu soruyu sordum: “Neden bu yapıyı temanın içinde bırakayım? Neden bağımsız bir eklentiye dönüştürüp başka insanların da kullanmasını sağlamayayım?”</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bu soru, OZD Katalogun gerçek başlangıcı oldu. Amacım, e-ticaret sisteminin bütün karmaşıklığına ihtiyaç duymayan işletmelerin ürünlerini katalog biçiminde sergileyebilmesiydi. Bir ürünün adı, görseli, açıklaması, kategorisi ve gerekli bilgileri yönetim panelinden eklenebilmeli; ziyaretçi de bunları anlaşılır bir yapıda görebilmeliydi. Gerçek bir projede karşılaştığım ihtiyaç, başkalarının da yararlanabileceği genel bir çözüme dönüşmeye başladı.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eklentinin ilk hâlini yaklaşık bir yıl önce hazırladım. Fakat çalışan bir kod ile WordPress.orgda yayımlanabilecek bir eklenti arasında büyük fark olduğunu öğrendim. Güvenlik kontrolleri, yetkilendirme, nonce kullanımı, veri temizleme ve çıktı kaçışlama gibi konuların dikkatle ele alınması gerekiyordu. Metinlerin çevrilebilir olması, eklenti dosyalarının doğru yapıda hazırlanması, kullanıcıya gösterilen ifadelerin anlaşılır olması ve WordPress kod standartlarına yaklaşılması gerekiyordu. Her düzeltme bana yalnızca eklentiyi değil, geliştirici olarak kendi çalışma disiplinimi de iyileştirme fırsatı verdi.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sonunda OZD Katalogu WordPress.org incelemesine gönderdim. İnceleme ekibinin istediği düzeltmeleri uyguladım ve eklentim 2 Ağustos 2026 tarihinde onaylandı. Onay mesajını almak benim için teknik bir işlemin tamamlanmasından çok daha fazlasıydı. Yıllardır kullandığım WordPresse artık kendi kodumla katkıda bulunuyordum. Bir zamanlar yalnızca eklenti kuran ve ayar yapan kullanıcıyken, artık başka kullanıcıların kurabileceği bir eklentinin geliştiricisiydim.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OZD Katalog dünyanın en büyük ya da en karmaşık WordPress eklentisi olmayabilir. Benim için değeri, temsil ettiği değişimde yatıyor. Bu proje, “Acaba yapabilir miyim?” sorusuna verdiğim somut cevaptır. Görme engelli olmamın üretmeme engel olmadığını; doğru araçlar, sabır, öğrenme isteği ve geri bildirimle açık kaynak dünyasına katkı sunabileceğimi gösterdi.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress bana doğrudan finansal özgürlük vaat eden sihirli bir araç olmadı. Bana daha temel ve kalıcı bir şey verdi: Kendi fikirlerimi yayımlayabileceğim, projeler geliştirebileceğim, müşterilerin ve arkadaşlarımın ihtiyaçlarına çözüm üretebileceğim bir alan. sadikozdogan.com.tr üzerinde teknik yazılar yayımlıyor, geliştirdiğim projeleri paylaşıyor ve öğrendiklerimi Türkçe olarak başkalarına aktarıyorum. imagefilex.com gibi farklı web projeleri üzerinde çalışıyor, yeni tema ve eklenti fikirleri geliştiriyorum. Her proje dijital dünyada kendi yerimi biraz daha sağlamlaştırıyor.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bu hikâyeyi özellikle engelli bireylere, Türkiyede ve benzer koşullarda teknoloji üretmek isteyenlere, kendisini yeterli görmediği için ilk adımı erteleyenlere anlatmak istiyorum. Başlamak için bütün cevaplara sahip olmak gerekmiyor. Erişilebilirlik sorunları, maddi sınırlamalar, çevrenizde yeterli teknik topluluğun bulunmaması veya hata yapma korkusu yolunuzu yavaşlatabilir. Fakat küçük ve gerçek bir sorunu çözerek başlamak, zamanla sizi tahmin etmediğiniz bir noktaya taşıyabilir.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Açık kaynak dünyasının benim için en güçlü yanı da budur. Bir başkasının yıllar önce geliştirdiği koddan öğrenebilir, belgeleri okuyabilir, topluluğun belirlediği standartlara göre çalışabilir ve sonunda kendi katkınızı başkalarının kullanımına açabilirsiniz. Bu zincirin bir parçası olmak, yalnızca kod yayımlamak değildir. Bilginin paylaşılabileceğine ve farklı koşullardaki insanların da üretime katılabileceğine inanmak demektir.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Şimdi OZD Katalogu geliştirmeye, yeni özellikler ve dil seçenekleri eklemeye hazırlanıyorum. Bunun yanında başka eklentiler, temalar ve erişilebilir uygulamalar üzerinde çalışmayı planlıyorum. Hedefim yalnızca daha fazla ürün çıkarmak değil; kullandığım araçların görme engelli kullanıcılar açısından nasıl çalıştığını sorgulamak ve mümkün olduğunca anlaşılır, hafif ve erişilebilir çözümler üretmek.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress yolculuğum bana en büyük engelin her zaman teknik bilgi eksikliği olmadığını öğretti. Bazen asıl engel, kendi sesimizi ve emeğimizi değersiz görmemizdir. OZD Katalog küçük bir fikir olarak başladı, gerçek bir ihtiyaca cevap verdi ve sonunda WordPress.orgda herkesin erişebileceği bir eklentiye dönüştü. Benim için bu, bir bitiş değil; kullanıcı olmaktan üreticiye, çekinmekten paylaşmaya ve hayal etmekten katkı sunmaya uzanan yeni bir başlangıçtır.</p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https://heropress.com/essays/building-beyond-the-screen-my-wordpress-accessibility-and-ozd-katalog-story/\">Building Beyond the Screen: My WordPress, Accessibility, and OZD Katalog Story &#8211;

No API key, no account, and imports are deduplicated. In the block editor it&#8217;s a tab inside the Media Library modal rather than an entry next to Openverse and Pexels — so look one level deeper.

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Were proud to announce that WordPress has signed <a href=\"https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/corporate-responsibility/topics/open-weight/\">Open Weights and American AI Leadership</a>, an open letter asking US policymakers to not place early restrictions on open weight AI models. These are artificial intelligence models that anyone can download, inspect, modify, and run on their own infrastructure. The letter was published on July 24, 2026, and more than 270 companies and organizations have added their names. Its argument will be familiar to anyone who works in open source: technology gets better and safer when more people can study it and build on it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That belief is the foundation WordPress is built on. Anyone can run the software, look at how it works, change it to suit their needs, and share what they make. Those freedoms are why WordPress has become a foundational part of the open web and why people trust it with their work. Open weight models bring that same kind of access to AI. A model that anyone can download and adapt becomes something people can shape around their own work and improve for everyone who comes after them.</p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The next generation of innovation won&#8217;t come from models alone. It will come from millions of people building with them. Open weights help make that possible. WordPress is proud to support the Open Weights and American AI Leadership letter.<br /><br /><em>&#8211; WordPress Executive Director, Mary Hubbard</em></p>\n</blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Requests to US Policymakers</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The requests in the letter are practical ones. As signatories, we ask policymakers to expand access to computing power for startups and researchers, to invest in shared resources like public datasets and evaluation tools, and to keep more than one kind of model available rather than narrowing the field to a handful of closed systems. We also ask that common development practices, such as using one model&#8217;s output to improve another, not be treated as theft by default. Each of these requests follows the pattern that has made open source software dependable for decades, where many people test, improve, and secure the same technology in public view.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more than 20 years, WordPress has run on the idea that the people using a technology should be free to shape it. AI is becoming part of how people publish, and open weight models are one way that freedom carries forward. Keeping them available gives the next generation of builders, the people <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/education/\">now learning WordPress</a>, the same starting point that open source gave everyone before them.</p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-left is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-b192c3d7 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/corporate-responsibility/topics/open-weight/\">Read the Letter</a></div>\n</div>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Thu, 27 Aug 2026 17:00:32 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:12:\"Mary Hubbard\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:13;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:21:\"\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:96:\"Open Channels FM: X vs Nitter and XCancel, AI Middleware, and Accelerated Online College Degrees\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:34:\"https://openchannels.fm/?p=2560267\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:101:\"https://openchannels.fm/x-vs-nitter-and-xcancel-ai-middleware-and-accelerated-online-college-degrees/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:120:\"Hear about X and Nitter, how AI changes human roles with meat proxies, and the shift toward rapid online degree programs\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Thu, 27 Aug 2026 11:05:00 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:8:\"Bob Dunn\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:14;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:21:\"\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:89:\"WPTavern: #231 Damon Cook on How WP Trend Watcher Keeps Him Up to Date With WordPress\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:48:\"https://wptavern.com/?post_type=podcast&p=207377\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:103:\"https://wptavern.com/podcast/231-damon-cook-on-how-wp-trend-watcher-keeps-him-up-to-date-with-wordpress\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:41984:\"<details>Transcript<div>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:00:19] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Welcome to the Jukebox Podcast from WP Tavern. My name is Nathan Wrigley.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jukebox is a podcast which is dedicated to all things WordPress, the people, the events, the plugins, the blocks, the themes, and in this case a new way to keep up with WordPress news and updates.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;d like to subscribe to the podcast, you can do that by searching for WP Tavern in your podcast player of choice, or by going to wptavern.com/feed/podcast, and you can copy that URL into most podcast players.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have a topic that you&#8217;d like us to feature on the podcast, I&#8217;m keen to hear from you and hopefully get you, or your idea, featured on the show. Head to wptavern.com/contact/jukebox, and use the form there.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So on the podcast today, we have Damon Cook. Damon has been a developer in the WordPress ecosystem for over a decade, working with WordPress centric agencies, and more recently running his own freelance business, Noma Digital. He&#8217;s a longtime community member, contributor, and someone who remains keenly engaged with the latest WordPress developments from releases like 7.1, to shifts in plugins, themes, and the broader WordPress landscape.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Damon joins us today to discuss WP Trend Watcher, an open source tool he&#8217;s created to help WordPress professionals keep up with the ever increasing deluge of news, community updates and feature releases. As the WordPress space grows more dynamic, and let&#8217;s be honest, sometimes a bit overwhelming, WP Trend Watcher is designed to sift through a fire hose of RSS feeds, summarise the trends, and inject some much needed human curation into AI generated content.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Damon talks about the importance of staying ahead in the WordPress ecosystem, especially for freelancers, agency owners, and developers who want to anticipate changes and support their clients.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He gets into the technical nuts and bolts, breaking down how the tool gathers, and summarises, news. The models and local AI setup he&#8217;s experimented with, and the balance between automation and critical human review.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re someone who struggles to keep up with the relentless pace of WordPress news, and wants a smarter way to separate the worthwhile updates from the dross, this episode is for you.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re interested in finding out more, you can find all of the links in the show notes by heading to wptavern.com/podcast, where you&#8217;ll find all the other episodes as well.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so without further delay, I bring you Damon Cook.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am joined on the podcast by Damon Cook. Hello, Damon.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:03:04] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Hi, Nathan. Good to see you again.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:03:05] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah, thank you. Damon and I had a chat at WordCamp US. I think you said a little while ago that it was in 2024. So it&#8217;s been a few years since we&#8217;ve had a chat, and there&#8217;s been a few pivots in your life. At the time you were working for a hosting company, which I don&#8217;t think you are doing anymore. But we&#8217;re going to have a chat today about something which caught my attention probably on social media, I imagine, I saw it there. It&#8217;s called WP Trend Watcher.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I would just say at the beginning before we get stuck into the topic, if you go to the WP Tavern website, I will bury all of the links in the show notes. So anything that we discover today, go and click on the links over there. And actually given the nature of the topic, it might be wise, dear listener, to go and do that before you get into this podcast, because it&#8217;ll be fun to have a poke around and be forewarned as to what is it that we&#8217;re going to be looking at.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So anyway, Damon, thank you for joining us again. Just before we begin, I mentioned that you have changed roles in the last 24 months or so. Do you just want to tell us a little bit about you and your roles in WordPress over these many years?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:04:07] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Sure, yeah. Yeah, been a developer in WordPress ecosystem for over a decade. And always been with WordPress-centric agencies. And yeah, as of the past year about, I&#8217;ve just been running my own freelance, Noma Digital, then also doing some contract work. And yeah, and still keeping up on all the latest WordPress news and features coming out. 7.1, what is coming out in, well yeah, in like a week, I think.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:04:37] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yes. Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:04:38] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Lots of cool stuff there.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:04:39] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah, there really is a lot happening. Genuinely, there is a lot happening in the WordPress space. And, it may be that you&#8217;re a developer, and so that side of things captures your attention. But from my perspective, I am not really a developer, but I am curious about all the things that are going on, because I&#8217;m fascinated by Core and plugins and themes and blocks and all of that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But equally, the community side and all of that. There&#8217;s a whole load going on, and events and marketing and loads going on. But that deluge of information, that sort of fire hose is very hard to keep a track of. Some websites that were publishing for many years die out and other ones replace them, and things come at you from different angles.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so you have built a tool, WP Trend Watcher, which you&#8217;re able to put on your local machine. I believe that&#8217;s right at the moment. It&#8217;s a sort of local install, and we can talk about the technicalities of that in a moment.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But this tool, the way that you&#8217;ve built it is primarily pre-built, if you like, to go out and inspect the WordPress space so that you can summarise the zeitgeist, of what&#8217;s going on in the WordPress world. You can keep up without having to do that manual slog of going out, reading everything, spending hours every day kind of wasting time, and I&#8217;m doing air quotes there, if you know what I mean.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Okay, so my first question is revolving around the why of this. What was the importance here that you felt that you wanted a tool that did this for you? And really what I&#8217;m trying to get there is why did you feel it was important to keep up with the WordPress space? Is it&#8230; if you&#8217;re a client, if you&#8217;ve got relationships with clients and you&#8217;re building client websites, is it not enough in your scenario just to know that WordPress drops, they do a version change every now and again, we get a release, I&#8217;ve got a suite of plugins, I probably need to keep up to date with those. Why? Why are you interested in the broader landscape?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:06:34] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Sure, yeah. I&#8217;ve been a, I was pretty active contributor for a while to the project, not so much lately. But, when I was a contributor there was, I mean, there&#8217;s always been a lot of news to keep up with, between Slack and Trac and WordPress.org stuff. But I started to see some of what were the reliable sources in that area. And as I work with WordPress daily, I still need to keep up with what is coming down the pipeline.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so yeah, I just wanted to take that, it was very a selfish starting point. I needed to take all these RSS feeds, get them summarised, but then also verify that, what&#8217;s being summarised with AI isn&#8217;t just hallucinations or some kind of, you know, mistrust was there, because that&#8217;s a critical component to this project was the human layer. It&#8217;s just pulling in a bunch of RSS feeds, summarizing it, and then I go through and make sure the summaries and click through it, like a lot of the stuff, and read it, and it&#8217;s helpful for me to process and see what&#8217;s actually going on and then provide my own judgment on it, so.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:07:47] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> The sort of curious bit there then I suppose is that you, it feels like you always want to be one step ahead of what&#8217;s happening in the WordPress space. And I suppose if you&#8217;re being a freelancer, having that knowledge of what&#8217;s coming up, particularly in WordPress and WordPress Core, because I&#8217;ve noticed that a lot of RSS feeds, for want of a better word, and we&#8217;ll get into that in a moment, are Core related.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So that then sort of tells me that you want to be ahead of what&#8217;s coming in the next feature set so that you can, I don&#8217;t know, forewarn your clients, or practice things that you know are going to suddenly drop on a particular day of the year, and so that when the inevitable call comes, &#8220;Why is this there now?&#8221; And, &#8220;How does this new feature work?&#8221; You&#8217;re ahead of it all. Does that kind of summarise your interest in it, or is it more eclectic than that? You&#8217;re just curious about it because it&#8217;s curious.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:08:39] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Yeah, I mean there&#8217;s certainly the curiosity is there, but yes, I do like to be at the bleeding edge of what is coming down in the new, like for example, the 7.1 release coming out. Just seeing what&#8217;s being worked on, what might have gotten dropped from proposals. Yeah and just I guess being in the ecosystem, I&#8217;ve seen how a lot of the community has come and gone, and what has been critically talked about is, what is a critical feature, and why might something not be worked on and all that stuff.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So yeah, it&#8217;s just a selfish way to keep up on the latest, developer news and, yeah, and share it out and summarise it and get some human judgment behind it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:09:22] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> A curious thing which is not related to this podcast, but most Mondays I do like a live show in which we have three or four panelists, and we bat around the WordPress news from the previous seven days. And I&#8217;ve been doing that show for, oh, I don&#8217;t know, maybe seven or eight years or something like that. And in the sort of the week preceding, I go around the internet, I look at social networks, I read the blogs that I&#8217;m familiar with. I&#8217;ve got a giant list of RSS URLs in a feed reader, and I go through, and I read them, and I look at them all.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And it, genuinely is incredibly time inefficient. That is to say that I open things, get halfway through, realise there&#8217;s nothing really for me to talk about here with my guests, and there&#8217;s probably nothing for the the listeners to engage with. And so I lose a lot of time, doing that exercise, and it strikes me that in the era of AI, that would be, the intention here is to cut out that. Cut through the dross, sift out the bits and pieces that are of interest, and make the bits that finally reach your eyeballs worthy of attention.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How have you orchestrated that to happen? Because with the best will in the world, I think we all know that AI can go off the rails a little bit. It may be that it doesn&#8217;t quite match the intentions that you would wish it to have. How are you corralling it to be what it is that you want?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:10:47] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Sure. Like I alluded to, it just stemmed from a selfish kind of interest in keeping up on these news sources, and I knew a lot of them all had RSS feeds. I think that even I, you know, I have a fascination, an obsession almost, with AI these days and I&#8217;m always trying some cutting, more cutting edge stuff and tinkering.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But I think even myself, and I think I see a lot of people confuse AI with automation. And so it&#8217;s interesting to see, when I, this project, I didn&#8217;t want to automate the whole thing, like just go get RSS feeds, AI summarises, AI publishes, just do it, right? Which I can, we could potentially do with the project, but I limited it to that contract of, go get these RSS feeds, the latest news, come back, summarise them, and then show them to me so I can audit them.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A lot of them, I just open up like yourself. It seems counterproductive, but I actually like that&#8217;s how I really keep up. Because if I just read the paragraph from the AI summary, which I do, it&#8217;s it&#8217;s not really covering, and might miss something in that full article that actually really interested me.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So you know, I click through most of these and I&#8217;m reading. I peruse, I don&#8217;t read every single word for sure, but I peruse and just try to validate that the summary matches, and then I look for tidbits that might been missed that I&#8217;m curious about, and then drop that in the human summary element of the published final briefing. So that&#8217;s the workflow of it right now.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:12:27] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:12:27] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> That&#8217;s how I&#8217;ve set it up and I enjoy just the whole, the sequential part of like gathering and then, there is an automation of it shows me everything I gathered, and then gives me an area to write my thoughts and then I click through everything. So it&#8217;s just turned into a weekly, kind of hobby project and it&#8217;s fun to do, so.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:12:48] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah, so the bit that is infuriating to me is just the dead time. And the dead time for me is not once I&#8217;ve found the link. That for me is when it actually becomes interesting. You click the link, you open it, and you do the reading and what have you. It&#8217;s finding the link and finding the interesting thing.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:13:07] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Yep.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:13:07] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> And so I think, it is totally credible to get AI to do that. And I have this, I&#8217;m not a great user of AI. That is to say I&#8217;m not somebody that uses AI an awful lot. But it&#8217;s becoming pretty clear to me that one of the areas which it genuinely is good at is curating like a silo of information. You give it a body of information, a corpus of information, and say, &#8220;summarise that,&#8221; or, &#8220;Draw out of that the bits that might be of interest.&#8221;</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, it&#8217;s not perfect, but it seems to be exceedingly good at that. The creative side, maybe less so, and we don&#8217;t really need to get too much into that. But this bit of drop the corpus of information in, summarise that, publish your results. That seems like a really credible way of using AI in the year 2026, and that is indeed what you&#8217;ve done.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So now that you&#8217;ve got this built, and I will link to a report so you can see Damon&#8217;s previous, I think you&#8217;ve got seven or six or something like that, previous ones from previous weeks up, and you can see them all. It basically ends up in a bullet-pointed, numbered list of titles with links, and then maybe one sentence of about 20 words following on from that. And then that will obviously either lead to a click or not.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How have you found those summaries to be? The 20 or so that you&#8217;ve got in each of your little editions. How have you found them to be? Do they seemingly accurately represent what&#8217;s contained within, or does it tend to go off the rails a bit?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:14:39] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> No, they&#8217;re accurate.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:14:41] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:14:42] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> The key kind of component there is when the summaries happen, it&#8217;s using, I set it up because I wanted to use local models. It&#8217;s all prompt-based, so essentially, it&#8217;s going to these RSS feeds, getting the latest articles and links, then parsing that through AI and saying, and passing a prompt along saying, &#8220;summarise this for developers and agency owners with a critical eye on, X, Y, Z.&#8221;</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so that&#8217;s where things do actually come, they come back pretty accurate. And the inference of what the summary shows, it&#8217;s fascinating. But yeah, it&#8217;s pretty accurate, and the fun part is trying to prove it, to see like, &#8220;okay wow,&#8221; that sounds like it would interest me as a developer and agency owner. I&#8217;m going to click and read through and make sure that&#8217;s an actual thing, and not a hallucination. So it&#8217;s like a game of just fact-checking in a way.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:15:46] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> I&#8217;m curious to know what it doesn&#8217;t include. So for example the addition, I&#8217;m going to call it an addition. I don&#8217;t know. Oh, summary. There we go. Weekly summary is what you&#8217;ve called it. This particular one has 19 items listed, and I don&#8217;t know if it produced 19 different things and all of them got written to the page, or if, I don&#8217;t know if you can see in the background, 34 just didn&#8217;t cut the mustard. Can you inspect what didn&#8217;t get included and thereby start to have intuition to say &#8220;okay, I wonder why that one didn&#8217;t cut the mustard?&#8221;</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:16:20] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Yeah, there is a built-in, for the AI to, when it does a review, it checks sources and it looks for duplicate, two kind of posts on two different sites about the same exact topic. It&#8217;s going to try to not do a summary on both of those.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:16:39] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Okay.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:16:40] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> So it does check for duplicates, weak language, missing sections. So it does do some of that to cut out the duplicate work. But also, yeah, it&#8217;s not looking, like part of the prompt and part of the exercise for AI is to not look for superfluous, just like really fact-based deterministic stuff and not just you know. It&#8217;s funny because trend is in the title, right? WP Trend Watcher.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:17:06] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Which is maybe the exact opposite of what you&#8217;re after.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:17:09] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> It&#8217;s kind of like it&#8217;s not really looking for what&#8217;s popular, but what is factual coming out of a lot of these sources.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:17:17] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Okay. When you are looking at this, this is a strange question, and I don&#8217;t know how you&#8217;re going to react to this. How does it make you feel? Do you have the intention that you&#8217;re cheating on the Damon from five years ago would&#8217;ve thought, &#8220;Oh, this is horrific, somebody did all this with a computer. This should be done by, a human being should be corralling this.&#8221; How does it make you feel on that level?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:17:41] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Yeah, it does make me feel cheap.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:17:43] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:17:45] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> And I think that&#8217;s kind of why I publish these. It&#8217;s trying to be transparent. So if anybody&#8217;s going to go and read this, they know that I even put at the bottom how much time I spent trying to look through everything. So you can take all those facts and base whether you want to read this or not.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:18:08] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:18:09] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Did he spend enough to? You can pass your own judgment. Did he spend enough time? Maybe he should have spent more time.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:18:14] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:18:16] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> But yeah, that&#8217;s part of the exercise for me is making this open source, and just having this public, and so if folks do find it fascinating and helpful, they could even fork it and try to do something else. Or I even have, possibility to submit sources because I&#8217;m always thinking &#8220;Should I have another source in here?&#8221; or.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:18:39] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yes, yes.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:18:41] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> There&#8217;s room for improvement too.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:18:43] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> The issue there is you end up with scope creep, don&#8217;t you? And before you know it, you&#8217;ve got 5,000 RSS feeds that you&#8217;re pummeling everywhere, and then you really are in a maze of trying to figure out what&#8217;s relevant and what&#8217;s useful.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The report that you get on the front end, obviously, you&#8217;ve got these AI generated the numbered list, in this case 19, the one that I&#8217;m looking at. Again, links will be in the show notes.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But then the interface that you built provides the option then to add sort of human notes, for want of a better word, at the end. So it&#8217;s not just a case of, okay, that&#8217;s where it ends. The idea is then that you would go in, contribute for yourself what it is that you feel is important here, free form writing like we always used to do, and so on.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:19:24] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Yep.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:19:24] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Why did you include that bit? Why, what was the purpose in having that? Was it just a more human curated portion at the end, so you wanted to remember what you actually thought?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:19:33] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Yeah. It&#8217;s twofold. I wanted the human in the loop. It&#8217;s a pretty popular phrase these days with AI, but I wanted that aspect there. But also selfishly, a game to fact-check a lot of these things and make sure AI isn&#8217;t hallucinating. But also it&#8217;s the exercise of memory of like going through and reading these things, because then I actually, you know, it registers in my brain. Like this is really what&#8217;s coming down the pipe. Because if I just read through the summaries, even if they were 100% accurate and I just trusted them out of the box, I feel like it doesn&#8217;t necessarily always register for me. So the actually exercise of going and clicking and reading through and comparing to what AI summarised is helpful for to sink in that data.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:20:20] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> I think if this were something that I was looking at, and I&#8217;m definitely not ruling out doing something like this because I genuinely think there&#8217;s a lot of merit in my specific case for this. I think I&#8217;d be looking at four of those a day and just trying to, I don&#8217;t know, at 9 in the morning just before the day begins, or at 5 at night just as the day&#8217;s about to end, the workday. Just go in and look at a few of those. Because I&#8217;m like you, if I read the AI 20-word summary, there&#8217;d be no substance to that and I wouldn&#8217;t remember it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the fact that the interface is there and those articles have been surfaced, and I presume you could probably run one of these each day and adapt what was there the previous day and what have you. So technically then, how does it work? I&#8217;m fairly sure that this is a thing which you have built, and is currently sitting on a machine in your house somewhere.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:21:08] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Yep.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:21:08] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Just describe the technicalities of what you need to get, on your machine to make this occur.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:21:13] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Yeah. It&#8217;s a TypeScript code base, and it&#8217;s on GitHub, so you can fork it, contribute to it. But yeah, I run it. You can pass in kind of a flag. I run it weekly. It was just an arbitrary decision, and it felt weekly would be good. But you can, yeah, it just checks basically the last date of when it ran, and then tries to grab the sources.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then I use LM Studio application on my Mac, which allows me to kind of download models that are fit for my system. I have an 18 gigabyte memory that I can work with, so that is limiting. But, I think a lot of these models are coming down in size and the local AI movement, I don&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s a movement, but I think it&#8217;s taking off in a lot of ways.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:22:07] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah, I think so. Yeah. Yep</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:22:09] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> We&#8217;re starting to see a lot more, yeah, local implications. That was part of the exercise for me, was exploring that. What models I could use on my system, and then what were the results of using those models with this tool for the summaries.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So yeah, I think every week at the bottom, that&#8217;s part of the report is what model I used locally to run the summaries against. And I try to switch it up. I think I used probably six of them, I used the same model. I think it was a Qwen model. Then the most recent one I used, I switched it up, and it was a, I forget the name even. It was like an LS.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:22:49] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Oh, these things come and go so fast. Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:22:51] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Yeah, exactly. And that&#8217;s the fascinating part is just to drop in a new model and see how it does, and the softwares look like, because they do change. And even the report, I think you&#8217;ll, if you just compare this week&#8217;s with last, just the output is a little different. And I&#8217;m trying to&#8230; That&#8217;s something I plan on working more towards is deterministic, the output. The summaries are one thing, but then when it outputs into the final report, getting that more deterministic. Especially, I really want to have footnotes, so that people can see where these summaries and stuff are, what they&#8217;re exactly they&#8217;re linking to. It&#8217;s kind in there but it does&#8217;t always output exactly the same in formatting, so.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:23:35] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> So you&#8217;re doing this work on the local machine, and then obviously I&#8217;m looking at it so it&#8217;s published, by the looks of it on GitHub. Is that all automated or are you curating that process? Or have you got, you know, your local machine is bound to GitHub, your GitHub repository and so this is all automated in that sense as well?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In other words, what I&#8217;m saying is if you took a break for a month and came back, would this all just be chugging along in the background and producing these weekly reports? Or is this something that you manually invoke on a weekly basis and copy and paste and what have you?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:24:07] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> That&#8217;s the part that, yes. I just run the report and write my judgment in it, then publish it to GitHub, and then GitHub does a little, it takes basically the artifacts and just spits them out. But there&#8217;s not much there in the automation on GitHub. It&#8217;s just publishing it to GitHub Pages.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fact that I have a section that&#8217;s required for human in the loop kind of takes away full automation. I could make it run, but then I would have to take that component out of me reading through, clicking through, and writing my own judgment at the end of the report. And I don&#8217;t plan on getting rid of that. I actually enjoy that aspect, so.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:24:47] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> So it&#8217;s become a bit of an interface. The AI plus Damon equals the finished product. You really don&#8217;t want it to be automated. And in a way, that feels to me a bit like, I don&#8217;t know, a race to the bottom. If we automate all the things, I just don&#8217;t know where the audience for that lives, because you&#8217;ll, never really know. Because there&#8217;ll never be a moment where you look back at it and say, &#8220;Is anybody reading this?&#8221;. &#8220;Has anybody talked to me about this?&#8221; and what have you. Whereas the fact that you&#8217;re interested in it, you&#8217;re on this podcast talking about it, you&#8217;ve got an interest in the subject matter, you&#8217;ve clearly engaged with it. I don&#8217;t really have a question there, but there&#8217;s definitely something there. The fact that you&#8217;re in the weeds of it and it&#8217;s not just AI for AI sake, I think is important.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:25:32] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Yeah. And it&#8217;s, yeah, that&#8217;s a great point. And I think that makes me, I don&#8217;t know, I guess go back to, where some of this started from. Yeah, I think people are creating their own knowledge bases. And you even touched on this. Just having that corpus of artifacts, a lot of that AI can do these days, and you can automate some of that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But, how you take all that data and get the human in the loop and, is it even interesting if you, it&#8217;s interesting maybe to you to read, but if you want to share that, is it going to interest others? And yeah, the human aspect is critical for me there, because, especially if you&#8217;re going to share it publicly, you know.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:26:14] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:26:14] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> At least be transparent.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:26:16] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah, so you&#8217;ve called it WP Trend Watcher. And it feels to me, if I was to rewind the clock to, I don&#8217;t know 2023, where for the first time we were all beguiled when ChatGPT came along, and we all just thought this whole interface was remarkable. But it felt, oh, it&#8217;s novel, it&#8217;s interesting, it behaves in many ways it&#8217;s a bit, I don&#8217;t know, passed the Turing test and it convinced us that it was human.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But now that we&#8217;re in the year 2026, it feels like one of AI&#8217;s central roles is just, as I said earlier, these corpses of information, but not finite in the way that a human brain is. There&#8217;s only a capacity that I have to remember so much, and it&#8217;s alarmingly little. But over time, if you were to stick with this endeavor, the name that you&#8217;ve given it, this sort of Trend Watcher, it feels like the data that you&#8217;re gathering, as it grows and grows and the AI&#8217;s capacity to manipulate, understand, I&#8217;m doing air quotes, &#8220;understand&#8221; and, create meaning from the disparate bits of data, that will grow over time.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so it&#8217;d be interesting in 2027 and 2028, what happened? Why did that bit never got built? And how did we get this thing shipped into Core? Where did it come from? What were all the little bits and pieces? Where were the jigsaw pieces that led that to happen? And how did this happen? And what&#8217;s the market trend? Why have we got a 4% decrease or an 8% increase in market share? How&#8217;s all that happened?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So it feels to me as if you keep pushing this out, that kind of information will be available, kind of MCP-able, by simply asking it questions, in a way that we&#8217;ve never had available to us in the past. Again, there&#8217;s no question, but do, you know what I&#8217;m saying there?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:28:03] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Yeah. I think, when I set out to build this there is, and there is still a component where I do want to have kind of the trend watching part of taking these past reports and having AI review them, and come up with inference of was there a trend? Why, yeah, why did we go from report 1 to report 18 about this? Maybe there&#8217;s this feature in WordPress 7, whatever. What changed there? And come up with a separate component for that. I haven&#8217;t built that in, but that&#8217;s kind of a potential, that&#8217;s always the end goal. And keeping these receipts for now and generating these reports is just the scaffolding in a way.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:28:48] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> So it feels to me as if it really isn&#8217;t bound to WordPress. You could run with what you&#8217;ve built and point it at just about any industry or thing. Your local tennis club or, whatever it may be. You could, over time, build up this sort of trend analysis, and see what&#8217;s going on.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And dare I say it, you could even implement it upon yourself so that you can see, what&#8217;s the cadence of my writing? How have I done my fitbit data or whatever it may be? You can see that, even as I&#8217;m saying the words, I&#8217;m thinking, &#8220;Oh, this is a dystopia that I don&#8217;t want to live in.&#8221; But at the same time, I&#8217;m really curious as to what that bigger capacity to maintain state and hold data over time. What that will furnish us with.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because we all forget things, our brains are very ephemeral. Things that are important to us come and go. We misremember things constantly, and it will be really interesting to see what things like you&#8217;ve built, are going to enable us in the future. And it does seem like this is baby steps. The humans in 2029 looking back on the work like you&#8217;ve just been talking about for the last half an hour will think, &#8220;Oh, that was cute, but look where we got to now, we stood on the shoulders of those giants, and here we are now.&#8221; It&#8217;s fascinating and terrifying in equal measure. Let&#8217;s say it that way.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:30:11] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Yes. Yeah, absolutely.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:30:13] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:30:14] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> There&#8217;s so much data and it&#8217;s just growing, right?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:30:17] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:30:17] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> It&#8217;s going to get worse before it gets better.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:30:19] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yes. Well, it&#8217;ll be very interesting to see how it all lands. But, what I would encourage everybody to do, I&#8217;m going to link to at least three things. I will link to the GitHub repository, which is obviously at Damon&#8217;s GitHub account. It&#8217;s colorful-tones, and then this is called WP Trend Watcher. I&#8217;ll also link to damonacook.com, where there is a blog post about how you can get up and running and what the necessary steps are for you to do that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But I will also link to the sort of output, which is again, it&#8217;s a GitHub repository, but you can go and see the weekly summaries and what have you, and judge for yourself whether or not this is something that you want to install on your local machine.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I think the inevitable is going to be that there&#8217;s going to be more and more of this in our lives. It remains to be seen whether we have the time to actually interact with the data that it puts out, or we&#8217;ll need another layer of AI to cope with the level of AI we&#8217;ve got, if you know what I mean. It&#8217;ll be wheels within wheels.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So there you go. Anything you want to add? Did I miss anything there before we wrap it up?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:31:27] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> No, the only thing just you know I&#8217;m colorful-tones. Actually, it might not be with, it might not have the hyphen, but on X. And then on LinkedIn I try to just share the report out weekly on there just for folks keep up, but that&#8217;s about it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:31:47] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Lovely, in that case, I will endeavor to find your Twitter or X handle and various other bits and pieces. And, wptavern.com, if you search for the episode with Damon Cook. It&#8217;s spelt in the way that you might imagine, D-A-M-O-N Cook, C-O-O-K. Search for that. And yeah, thank you so much for chatting to me today, and bravo for a topic which I think I&#8217;m going to be leveraging very much for my WordPress news cycle.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:32:14] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> We can get that, get some RSS feeds and we can get them, get you hooked up.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:32:18] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:32:18] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> You can start generating some other reports.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:32:20] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Okay, great. Yeah, let&#8217;s have a chat after we click stop in a moment. Damon Cook, thanks so much for chatting to me today.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:32:26] <strong>Damon Cook:</strong> Thanks.</p>\n</div></details>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the podcast today we have Damon Cook.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Damon has been a developer in the WordPress ecosystem for over a decade, working with WordPress-centric agencies and, more recently, running his own freelance business, Noma Digital. Hes a long-time community member, contributor, and someone who remains keenly engaged with the latest WordPress developments, from releases like 7.1 to shifts in plugins, themes, and the broader WordPress landscape.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Damon joins us today to discuss WP Trend Watcher, an open source tool he created to help WordPress professionals keep up with the ever-increasing deluge of news, community updates, and feature releases. As the WordPress space grows more dynamic, and lets be honest, sometimes a bit overwhelming, WP Trend Watcher is designed to sift through a fire hose of RSS feeds, summarise the trends, and inject some much-needed human curation into AI-generated content.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Damon talks about the importance of staying ahead in the WordPress ecosystem, especially for freelancers, agency owners, and developers who want to anticipate changes and support their clients. He gets into the technical nuts and bolts, breaking down how the tool gathers and summarises news, the models and local AI setup hes experimented with, and the balance between automation and critical human review.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If youre someone who struggles to keep up with the relentless pace of WordPress news and wants a smarter way to separate the worthwhile updates from the dross, this episode is for you.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Useful links</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://nomadigital.dev\">Noma

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this 134th episode of the Gutenberg Changelog Podcast, Birgit Pauli-Haack hosts Jessica Lyschik , senior developer at Greyd, to discuss recent Gutenberg and WordPress developments. The conversation centers on the releases of Gutenberg 23.7, 23.8, and WordPress 7.1 (&#8220;Mary Lou&#8221;), highlighting user-facing enhancements and developer-oriented changes.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress 7.1 introduced notable features, including new styling tools, updated media flow, notes functionality for collaboration, and improved support for AI-driven workflows. Jessica Lyschik emphasized the impactful addition of pseudo states (hover, focus, active) in buttons and navigation links, though global style options for navigation states are still being developed for 7.2. The new icon API was also discussed, which currently requires plugins for full editor integration.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both speakers observed an ongoing shift: features first become available via <code>theme.json</code> for theme builders, then gradually get exposed in the UI for broader audiences. They also touched on the evolving approach to child themes, font management, and the need for clear style inheritance indicators. Specific enhancements in Gutenberg 23.7/23.8, like responsive editing toggles and improvements to dynamic galleries and block inspector controls, were covered alongside new opt-out mechanisms for block controls.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The episode closed with a look toward WordPress 7.2, highlighting efforts to address &#8220;block editor paper cuts&#8221; (small annoyances) and improved tracking of in-progress features. Birgit Pauli-Haack announced a three-month podcast hiatus for sabbatical, promising a return for the 7.2 release. Listeners were encouraged to follow GitHub tracking issues and stay current with upcoming Gutenberg releases.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://gutenbergtimes.com/podcast/gutenberg-changelog-134-gutenberg-23-7-23-8-wordpress-7-1/#shownotes\">Show Notes</a> / <a href=\"https://gutenbergtimes.com/podcast/gutenberg-changelog-134-gutenberg-23-7-23-8-wordpress-7-1/#transcript\">Transcript</a></p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Editor: <a href=\"https://www.linkedin.com/in/sandy-reed/\">Sandy Reed</a></li>\n\n\n\n<li>Logo: <a href=\"https://markuraine.com/\">Mark Uraine</a></li>\n\n\n\n<li>Production: <a href=\"https://icodeforapurpose.com/\">Birgit Pauli-Haack</a></li>\n</ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-larger-font-size wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"shownotes\"><strong>Show Notes</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Special Guest: Jessica Lyschik</h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https://x.com/jessicalyschik\">https://x.com/jessicalyschik</a></li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/@jessicalyschik\">https://www.youtube.com/@jessicalyschik</a></li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=channel_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqa2tsT25ETnVSM20xS3ZoNDhpTkhwUVhlM2J0UXxBQ3Jtc0tsY2NmeEdxT01xdEMzMlR4WWxjYll2bGoyMXlSZVZFZm82alVtS3hpdW01Y3U1R3U0RGVBT19lbEhQeXNYeTcxZ0EwaVg4YUlYV2ZGR085ZXA1U0pYYzdSelRnejR5cDBHUm1pZDRpQi1fdHRPbkw3UQ&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fprofiles.wordpress.org%2Fluminuu\">profiles.wordpress.org/luminuu</a></li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtf0_A0KILu5lspB8oXQjinPhIe87s3nJ\">Greyd Conversations, to be found on YouTube</a></li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://www.meetup.com/wordpress-online-meetup-dach/\">DACH Online WordPress Meetup</a></li>\n</ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Announcements / Community contributions</h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/08/12/wordpress-7-2-call-for-volunteers/\">WordPress 7.2 Call for Volunteers</a></li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/08/14/wordpress-contributor-toolkit-1-0-a-smoother-workflow-for-your-first-core-contribution/\">WordPress Contributor Toolkit 1.0: A smoother workflow for your first Core contribution</a></li>\n</ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">WordPress 7.1 </h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https://wordpress.org/news/2026/08/mary-lou/\">WordPress 7.1 “Mary Lou”</a></li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dO751c8jkn0\">WordPress 7.1 Highlights Video</a></li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://wordpress.org/download/releases/7-1/\">WordPress 7.1 micro site</a> </li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/08/05/wordpress-7-1-field-guide/\">WordPress 7.1 Field Guide</a></li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://wordpress.org/documentation/wordpress-version/version-7.1/\">WordPress 7.1 Release Notes</a></li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Curated </strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https://developer.wordpress.org/news/2026/08/hands-on-with-the-wordpress-7-1-icon-registration-api/\">Hands-on with the WordPress 7.1 Icon Registration API</a></li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://developer.wordpress.org/news/2026/08/whats-new-for-developers-august-2026/\">Whats new for developers (August 2026) </a></li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://gutenbergtimes.com/wordpress-7-1-source-of-truth/\">WordPress 7.1 Source of Truth</a> (English) </li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://krautpress.de/2026/wordpress-7-1-source-of-truth/\">WordPress 7.1 Source of Truth Deutsch</a></li>\n</ul>\n</li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Podcasts</strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https://wpbuilds.com/2026/07/30/478-inside-wordpress-7-1-responsive-styling-new-blocks-media-modal-and-behind-the-scenes-changes/\">478 Inside WordPress 7.1 responsive styling, new blocks, media modal and behind-the-scenes changes</a></li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://presswerk.net/pw075/\">WordPress 7.1 mit Birgit Pauli-Haack</a> (German) </li>\n</ul>\n</li>\n</ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gutenberg releases</h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/08/06/whats-new-in-gutenberg-23-7-05-august/\">Whats new in Gutenberg 23.7?

In today&#8217;s episode, we will talk about Gutenberg 23.7 and 23.8, and also, of course, WordPress 7.1, which was just released, and also what&#8217;s in the pipeline. Not very detailed, but we&#8217;ll see. I&#8217;m your host, Birgit Pauli-Haack, curator at the Gutenberg Times and a full-time core contributor for the WordPress open source project sponsored by Automattic. It&#8217;s again a special treat for me to have Jessica Lyschik to join me on the show again. Jessica is a senior developer at Greyd, which is a German WordPress company that builds Greyd.Suite, an all-in-one toolkit for building and managing professional WordPress sites. Welcome to the show, Jessica. How are you today?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Thank you. I&#8217;m very good today. And thanks for having me yet again. I don&#8217;t know how often have I been here now?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> I think it&#8217;s either the 6th.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> 3rd, 4th?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Well, I think we&#8217;re coming up to 6 or 7.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Is there like an ongoing list of people how often they have been on the show?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Of course. Of course there is a list.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Probably I&#8217;m very at the top.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> It feels like. Absolutely. Yeah, you are. Top producer here.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Nice.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack</em>: Yeah. So Jessica, you are not only working on Greyd, you also work co-organizer on the WordPress Germany, and you also are a co-organizer for the German-speaking DACH Online WordPress Meetup. DACH, for those who don&#8217;t know it, is Deutsch, Austrian, also Österreich and Schweiz, Länderkennung.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik</em>: Yes.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> And the meetup comes together every other month, right?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yes.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> The 3rd Wednesday in a month in odd months. Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik</em>: Correct. Yes.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah. So what are you doing there? What&#8217;s coming over next?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> So our next meetup is, well, it is all in German. So for those listeners who are not speaking German, it&#8217;s unfortunately not for you, but you can try and come over and practice and listen. But we mainly held a whole day meetup in German. So for the German, Austrian, and Swiss communities. And yeah, the next meetup is in September and it is, yes, on the 16th. And we are talking about WordPress 7.0 and 7.1 as the latest releases. We will have Benjamin Sekavica with us who was also the, I think, release coordinator for 7.1, if I&#8217;m not mistaken.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack</em>: Yes.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> So he will share a bit more because he has been fairly involved into the last past 2 releases and he will share a few insights and everyone can share their experiences. We can answer each other&#8217;s questions. And yeah, that&#8217;s what we are going to do. So we aim for more of a professional audience with the online meetup.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> You mean developers and agencies?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah, or also anyone who is working professionally with WordPress. And we are not focusing too much on like beginners, but this is our area where we have our target audience, basically.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah, yeah, it makes sense. Awesome.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Announcements</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Well, thanks for letting us know about that. We&#8217;re coming to some announcements. I only got one that I wanted to share with you, dear listeners. Jeff Paul opened the call for volunteers for WordPress 7.2 release squad, and the release is scheduled for December 9th. So that&#8217;s kind of the timeframe that you&#8217;re looking at. December 9th means there&#8217;s 4 weeks beforehand is release candidate, and 6 weeks and 7 weeks is beta before that. So by October, you&#8217;re probably gonna be part of the— ongoing work to get this release over the finish line 2 months later.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> So experience being on the release squad, you had experience with that and I had too. I don&#8217;t think that&#8217;s a job for someone who hasn&#8217;t been part of core for a while because it&#8217;s a very fast-moving process and you need to know a lot about how WordPress is actually managed, developed, and released.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik</em>: Mm-hmm.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack</em>: There are quite a few release squads from previous releases that could come up and volunteer again. Yeah. </p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Community Contributions</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So speaking of first-time contributors to core, there is a new WordPress Contributor Toolkit that has been tested quite a bit, and it&#8217;s out in the first version. The first contribution does not start again with installing Git, Node.js, and Docker, and kind of takes the whole Contributor Day morning or in the afternoon when you start doing that. So this is a desktop …</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> I remember this.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah. And not everybody has their computer set up so it all goes smoothly. Yeah. So I have always had trouble with all the installations because my computer is not on the latest stuff. Yeah. So this desktop app handles it all. And after you run the setup wizard, Contributors can link to a track ticket and apply or test existing patches on the running site. It&#8217;s also based on Playground. And then open a pull request or attach a patch or hand their work to a mentor or— yeah, there&#8217;s quite a few features in there. And Juan Margarito is the project manager, so to speak, but he had input from quite a few core contributors. And I have not heard yet how it all went on WordCamp US, but I think the next version for WordCamp Asia is already in the works. So yeah, test it out. Then if you see something that needs to be fixed or that doesn&#8217;t work, yeah, find your way into the GitHub repo so you can leave an issue or, yeah, have some discussion there.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah, that sounds actually very promising to speed up the process. As I said, I remember like being on Contributor Day and now you have to install this, now you have to install Docker. Now you have to do this. Docker doesn&#8217;t work properly. What is the issue? It was a never-ending story. And having a setup that is like ready to go, I think this is very interesting. Yeah, I have not been at WordCamp US either, so I don&#8217;t know how this worked out, but I heard only good vibes so far from Contributor Day. Right.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> They published quite a few.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> I think it will speed up the process.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. Yeah, WordCamp US was, the Contributor Day were about 400 people out of 1,000. So that&#8217;s a phenomenal ratio there. And they changed the format a little bit from what I read, that they actually were project-oriented. So they actually were able to finish a few projects. And it&#8217;s more like a hackathon rather than kind of everybody picks something up and works on things. And that&#8217;s what I heard from a lot of people that were at the contributor day.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Whats Released &#8211; WordPress 7.1</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> And on August 19th, WordPress 7.1 was released called Mary Lou. After the jazz musician Mary Lou Williams, who has over 100 records. So she was very prolific in producing her music. And I&#8217;m glad that we found another woman to be part of the jazz naming for a WordPress version. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We talked quite a bit on this show about the various features. Just a reminder, there&#8217;s a lot packed into new styling tools. Updated media flows, added notes functionality, some changes to the new capabilities for AI, other tools and workflows. Anne McCarthy was the first-time release lead for it, and I must say she did a fantastic job, probably better than any other of the release leads because her communication style was very upfront, and it was also always kind of keeping everybody in the loop, and it was really nice to see. And for me, working on the source of truth, truth, it was really helpful that she was the release lead and I could bounce off some things like, how does it work? Or did I get this right? Or yeah, what is missing? What are your most favorite features from 7.1? Or what is it that tripped you up as a developer? Kind of, we can have both ways of talking about things.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah, we can, we can do it. There&#8217;s, uh, some things that have happened. So what I&#8217;m really happy about is the pseudo states. So hover, focus, active on buttons. For when I saw that, I went in there and during the release candidate phase and was like, hmm, I read something about navigation and if in the source of truth, what is going on? So I figured out that navigation links do have on the individual navigation links, you can toggle it on. But then I thought like, hey, for navigation, it would just make so much more sense if you would do that in the global styles. But it was not there. So there was nothing in the global styles to change these states. And I was a bit confused about that. But glad we figured it out in the outreach channel. I think I posted it on Slack. And it was actually not done yet because there&#8217;s one more addition coming to it, which is the, the active state.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Mm-hmm.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> So it&#8217;s not the, it&#8217;s not the pseudo state active, but when you have in WordPress, when you click on a navigation item, then this specific navigation item on the page you&#8217;re on gets the class current menu item as of now. I don&#8217;t think this is going to change in the future, but then what&#8217;s being worked on is that this also can be, this color can also be changed or this settings for when this state is actually happening.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Mm-hmm.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik</em>: And now for the navigation items, you would have then 3 states. So you have the responsive styles, you would have the pseudo styles, and you would have this active style. And because these are kind of intertwined, this was the reason why it has not been coming into 7.1 yet, but it&#8217;s being worked on for 7.2. So Maggie is on it. Maggie Cabrera, who I did the Twenty Twenty-Four theme with, she&#8217;s working on that. So that&#8217;s very cool. And yeah, that&#8217;s something to look forward because I just remember like the last week been talking about it with someone and it was in Torino Twenty Twenty-Four on my talk when at Workcamp Europe where I think it was Rich Tabor who asked the question what I would like to see, and I was like, pseudo styles would be great. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> So 2 years later, we are finally here. Of course, it&#8217;s not everywhere yet, but I think it&#8217;s a very good start. We have it on buttons now, and it can only extend to other blocks as we have seen it with many features before. They start out on one very specific area and then got released to the rest of the items that are there. So yeah, I&#8217;m very much looking forward to that. The new icon API is also something that&#8217;s very interesting. And I just had an email from a client today saying, hey, there&#8217;s this new icon API. What&#8217;s, what&#8217;s the matter? So I was curious too, of course, can I just do this in the editor? Because this was probably most people are going to ask. And no, you cannot, but you technically can through a plugin. There&#8217;s also an article from Justin Tadlock on the developer blog about this, right? I saw that this week.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> I have not tested it out yet. I had not had the time with this, but it definitely looks promising to— we&#8217;re getting there to like all these little changes that are kind of not just nice to have, but kind of sort of life improvements to how you would otherwise work that. I mean, there&#8217;s the icon block, of course, from Nick Diego, who is like the base for all what is in Core now, but you still can do a lot more in terms of customization with it. But yeah, we&#8217;re getting there. So yeah, we&#8217;re looking forward to that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack</em>: Yeah. So when you say it&#8217;s not there yet for the navigation link, it&#8217;s also not there. Well, you can do it in the theme.json. So it&#8217;s just the UI or the interface wasn&#8217;t finished. But the feature is there for theme builders that use the theme.json to style their stuff. They don&#8217;t have to rely on the global styles interface.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah, but that&#8217;s always the first route you go. So you go first in the editor. Can I see it? Is it there? And it was like, eh, disappointment. Yeah, but that&#8217;s what I forgot to mention. You can use it through theme.json, but then it&#8217;s like a bit of a, how to say, it&#8217;s, yeah, like you need to have your own theme.json. You just cannot go into any default theme or any existing theme that is from another author and then change it there because with the next theme update, your changes will be gone. So this is something you have to watch out for. And then for most people, it&#8217;s like also the feedback I often get from clients, from colleagues, it&#8217;s like, is it in the editor? No, sorry.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack</em>: Not yet. Still have to code. Not yet.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Not yet.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> But that&#8217;s pretty much the cadence of any of the styling things, that they are first coming into theme.json for theme builders, because that&#8217;s the basis of it. That&#8217;s kind of the API. That&#8217;s the— yeah, how it all fits in with the rest of it. And then it&#8217;s a whole different mindset to figure out how the interface is going to work, because the interface also needs to kind of figure out not only for those that are advanced builders, but also for those that are actually beginners or don&#8217;t know what a pseudo-state is. Yeah, so you have a language issue there, and it&#8217;s a whole different mindset to get this right for the interface. And I&#8217;m really glad that we finally have it in the theme.json and people can work with it from there. But yeah, you&#8217;re right, it&#8217;s not for one of the default themes where you can change the theme.json. Yeah, but it&#8217;s your own. Yeah, like I did for the Gutenberg Times. I have my own theme and I can kind of change things there.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah, it just depends how comfortable people are with using it. So if some are just, give me an existing theme that does get updates every now and then to do changes. And some just code their own because they feel comfortable with it. So It&#8217;s, it&#8217;s just that as long as we communicate, hey, that&#8217;s the current state of this. You can use it there, here and there, but here, watch out. This is the catch. Then I think it&#8217;s all fine because the more you know, the more you can adjust to your needs.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> And some who are longer in the WordPress space than just 4 years or so, so since it&#8217;s block themes, there is also the idea of a child theme that a lot of people go that route, which has its own theme.json. that is then combined with the parent theme and the global style. It gets a little bit unwieldy. Yeah, kind of figuring out where things are changed and how do you revert something and where does it go? Because you also have the additional CSS and then the block-level CSS. So yeah, there&#8217;s a lot of things that you can change and confuse everybody.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik</em>: Or even yourself. So it does happen that you change something somewhere, then forget about it and come back like 6 months later and be like, Why does this not change when I change the setting here? Now I can change the setting, but nothing happens. And I&#8217;ve been there. Don&#8217;t worry. It happens to the best. So it&#8217;s a tough one, but yeah, you just have to find your way in how you approach things. And again, everyone&#8217;s different. Everyone has different knowledge, different base on it. Child themes, definitely you can use them. Some people say child themes are dead. Well, it depends.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> It depends. Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik</em>: I mean, the most cases are slowly like, for example, if you wanted to use fonts, special fonts, then a child theme was always the best option to just have the files there, implement them and queue them correctly and so on. Well, now we have the font library. So. With a little exception, if you cannot upload certain fonts or do not want to use Google Fonts, for example, like there&#8217;s Adobe and like Adobe Fonts and another font places. where we, where you can get fonts from, you still need to implement them in a sort of hacky way. It does work. It&#8217;s not perfect, but it&#8217;s one of those things where a child theme would, or is still useful in my opinion.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> And yeah, there&#8217;s just so much variety around it. So yeah, everyone will find its way or their way too.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> I made the decision to not go with child theme, although the Gutenberg Times theme is based on Twenty Twenty-Five. Okay. I don&#8217;t, I don&#8217;t wanna kind of have this whole mental load, like figuring out where my patterns live or what are the theme.json settings that I need to override. And so I said, okay, I will make a copy and delete everything else that I need— don&#8217;t need, and then take it from there. It&#8217;s so robust that I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;m running into any problems that I didn&#8217;t make myself. Yeah. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What else? 7.1, I wanted to interject that with— so 7.2 is of course coming. We talked about it on December 9th. There is not a roadmap out yet, but what&#8217;s already in the works is what you mentioned is that we get ourselves confused when we don&#8217;t know where things are in styling. There&#8217;s actually an effort to have in the inheritance of styles be marked in the interface. There is a discussion on how to make that, and the designers are still kind of figuring it out. But you get an indicator in either the global styles or in the block settings in the sidebar if that&#8217;s a changed style. So it&#8217;s not the global style, but it&#8217;s kind of an individual style. So you can at least manage that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack</em>: Or at least recognize it. How far it goes, we don&#8217;t know, but the discussions are there. And I will link that particular issue in the show notes so you can kind of check it out if you want to and kind of see how that&#8217;s gonna come out. So anything else you wanna kind of say what you like about 7.1? What about the responsive styles? Do you like them?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik</em>: They look promising. I have not tried them out yet. I mean, it&#8217;s been just 2 days. I have been very busy with keeping up and, well, not having things break for great customers. We did have a little release. I was doing a little release yesterday for a little fix. No fatal errors or anything. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah, you are on your tippy toes when a new release is out. And of course, I have had it running on my local environment for quite some time, the release candidate, just to make sure that if I work or test things that I do not run into any issues. No, no deep dive yet, but what I noticed is that quite a few things moved around. For example, I was just made aware of yesterday that at the group block, you now have these settings that were usually the first thing. It&#8217;s like the blocks should inherit the site width or content width or something like that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Oh yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> This, this, the layout. Yeah. The layout part, it has now been moved from the settings to the styles. And I think this was because of the responsiveness, because then you have everything together in one go and do not have to switch the tabs back and forth for this.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yep.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> I mean, there is some refinement in the, in the UI of how things look. I think the notices got quite an update. They are looking different now. And it&#8217;s just like the little details from what I noticed in working on it, but I did not do yet, unfortunately, but I hope I can. Yeah. Dive a bit more deeper in this weekend. What&#8217;s new? I&#8217;ve been just reading on, just checking technically if there&#8217;s anything. I mean, one big thing is definitely the enforced iframe in the editor.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah. I was about to ask you about that, if you had any issues there with your—</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> We actually prepared for 7.0 already because it was first said, hey, we are doing this for 7.0, and then it was rolled back. It&#8217;s like, okay, we are not doing this for 7.0, but we are doing this for 7.1. So we were kind of prepared.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Mm-hmm.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik</em>: We just had to catch up with, I think, 2 blocks that we offer, but all, all works fine. So we are, we are good now there. And we did this ahead of time. So we were aware of these changes. And this is what I&#8217;m looking out specifically. Sometimes the fancy details as well, because I have to know, because most people come to me in my company saying, hey, why is that? What, what, what have, what has changed here? Tell me. And then I have to go to deep dive. I did it. I did this yesterday to say, why did things move? Ah, things move because of the responsive styles. Okay. So then you have the train of thought and know what&#8217;s happening, like kind of reverse engineering it, if you will.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Mm-hmm.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> But yeah, I will have a deeper dive into 7.1 and testing out a few things because I&#8217;m curious myself. I mean, of course we still work in, in and with WordPress, so we need to be aware of what&#8217;s happening.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gutenberg 23.7</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> All right. Yeah. So Gutenberg 23.7 was released and it has a few enhancements that we can talk about. Some of them actually made it into 7.1, which is actually a little bit unusual because normally after beta there are no enhancements. But if that&#8217;s a blessed, so to speak, feature, then still enhancement can make it into beta. And even if a release candidate, if it&#8217;s important and it needs to be fixed. </p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Enhancements</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So there were not a whole lot of things that I would point out, but the first one was the responsive editing enabled setting.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> With that, you can actually turn off the responsive styles option, and that made it into 7.1. It&#8217;s just a setting in your, in your block.json file, there, I think there&#8217;s also a filter where you can do that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik</em>: Yeah, you can use a filter in the functions.php of your theme or child theme, preferably child theme in this case.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Just where we had it. So you can, but then it&#8217;s, I think it removes it completely if I&#8217;m not mistaken, because the way the filter looks to me looks like it would disable it for everything.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Right.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik</em>: When you use it on the block itself in the block.json, then it&#8217;s just for that one block.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Right, right. The filters goes for everything. And it could be custom blocks, yeah, that you don&#8217;t want the responsive editing to come in, or you want them enabled. You know, it&#8217;s kind of the other thing. What is not turned off is the styling that you already put in. Yeah. So those are not affected by that filter. So if you come from a theme that already has them in the global styles or in the theme.json, they&#8217;re not turned off. It only turns off.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah. So it&#8217;s just basically in the user interface that you do not have this option anymore. You cannot access it anymore. Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> So it, it came out of the feedback loop from a lot of agencies that kind of said, okay, can I have my user not use that? So, which is pretty common for WordPress. Yeah. If you have a new feature that you also need to implement a turnoff thing for a lot of people. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The next one. is to extract— well, I&#8217;m reading that— to extract the preset management from shadows and font sizes. To implement those presets for shadows, so you have your own shadow configuration or your own font size configuration in the global styles or in the theme.json, those are actually handled pretty similar. And the developers said, okay, we don&#8217;t want to have too many same-looking files in our codebase. So let&#8217;s unify things and make it available so we can actually add additional presets with the same management kind of system. It&#8217;s a codebase and it&#8217;s on Gutenberg behind the scenes, but I think it will actually change a little bit how you code that for your custom blocks if you want to also have preset management enabled with that. So I wanted to point that out. I don&#8217;t know if that makes any sense to you.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> I have to deep— deeper dive into it because I actually don&#8217;t— it was not on my radar, to be honest, but it sounds fairly interesting. Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Do you wanna take the next one?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Reflect inherited global styles values and block inspector controls. This was what you were just talking about, right?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Right.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> So it is already in 23.7. Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik</em>: Yeah. I think when you scroll down further, I think this is with the kind of, how do you say, flipped squares or diamond sort of shape. I wonder if this is maybe not too— it&#8217;s not too visible. It&#8217;s like very hidden and kind of very much blends in. I would be curious to see what that actually looks like. So, okay, I do not have only 7.1 tasks for me for this weekend, but also Gutenberg tasks. Coming from the, what you just described before, that you don&#8217;t know where things are coming from, if things have changed locally, I think this is a very interesting user interface change that I assume will be kind of helpful for people to figure out, okay, apparently this is not the global style. Something has changed here. The question is then where?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> It will be interesting to see how good this particular style or sort of indication will be, will be kind of recognized because I find it very, it blends in too much from, in my opinion.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack</em>: Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> I think there needs to be a pop of color because we have this purple color as well for certain things in editor. And I think because if it&#8217;s just black and white, it&#8217;s kind of, it blends in too much because you have the, there&#8217;s screenshots from the typography panel when you choose the font size, when it&#8217;s You have only 5 options, S, M, L, XL, and XXL. And then it&#8217;s just a little dot or an outlined dot sort of, because it&#8217;s fairly small and it kind of blends in with the toggle next to it where you can toggle the Preset selection. Yeah, the sizes. So yeah, you&#8217;re right to see what other people will think about this.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah, it will come with a tooltip definitely for that. And it also will open a modal or will open the same modal that you have where you can reset a setting. So if somebody says, okay, we changed the theme update and you didn&#8217;t see— that&#8217;s the case where it really makes sense is, oh, and you don&#8217;t see the new styles or new things is because you have an override in the database and you can reset that to theme style and then you get the new new stuff in there. So that&#8217;s kind of the use case that I can think of. And I think it makes fairly sense. And once you know what that little diamond or whatever does, but you&#8217;re right, it&#8217;s not in your face and it&#8217;s not very …</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik</em>: I mean, it shouldn&#8217;t be like in your face, like kind of be like a giant billboard, you have made a change here, but it should be like a bit more coming out a bit more because right now I think it blends in too much. And I would probably be wondering if this is maybe a bug or if that neighboring icon may be having some sort of display issue or something because it&#8217;s too— not distinct enough, I think is the right term.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> It&#8217;s very subtle. Subtle, yeah. Yeah, I— when I first looked at it, was it a scratch on my screen or something like that?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah, exactly, exactly. So I was like, It looks a bit small, so I have to check it out on, on like on an actual installation and see what happens. If I notice it or if I just wonder where I did the change and it did not happen for whatever reason.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">But Fixes</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah, the next item is, it&#8217;s one of those quality of life things that you mentioned. It&#8217;s that the COVID and accordion blocks have now an exit on enter. So you hit enter once, you get to the next one, and then enter twice and you&#8217;re out of that whole container block. I only want to mention it because it&#8217;s— I found it missing on quite a few ones, except especially one of the cover and accordions. But it&#8217;s also when you— if you&#8217;re a developer and you want to learn how to do this, this is also a PR where you can actually check out how that&#8217;s going to work because it&#8217;s actually just a block support, yeah, that you need to put in there. It&#8217;s an experimental API, but it has been around for I think about 2 years now. And as long as Core is using it, it&#8217;s probably gonna stay there. So it could be also a good way for the block developers to kind of learn that little quality of life feature that you give the user out on the, on the block without having to do after and before kind of thing. Yeah. That I have to refer to once in a while.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah, but I didn&#8217;t know about it. I learned something today.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> So, yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Mission accomplished.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack</em>: Yes.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah, but it&#8217;s actually, yeah, I can totally get it for the COVID block because like what I am, I&#8217;m hon— I wanna be honest here. I am very much, I click away. I click somewhere outside because it does not work in, quote, in air quotes that, uh, you can exit a block and go up the next level outside of the block. So yeah, that&#8217;s good to know.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> All right, great. Yeah. Do you want to take the next one?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jessica Lyschik: Yeah. Dynamic gallery. Rename toolbar button to detach and add a modal explaining what will happen.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> The dynamic gallery is the one where you can have a gallery automatically created from your attached images. And that&#8217;s especially interesting for those that have been blogging for a long time and have been there. Photos all over the place. And now they can, you can, you don&#8217;t have to take one image at a time. You can do it all in one swoop. But the problem is when you want to add an image that&#8217;s not attached to it, or if you want to delete one, you need to break that dynamic thing.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Oh yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah. So you can do singular image things with a gallery. So you need to detach it. And then the modal explains that particular context. Kind of comes up and say, you say okay, and then be done with it. That detached image also comes, and we see it probably in 23.8 when we talk about it later. That&#8217;s also the same method how you can, for the page list in the navigation, that&#8217;s at first a dynamic one, but once you change things and add another link in there, it&#8217;s kind of not dynamic anymore. So it will, new things will not be added is also a downside of that. And it&#8217;s the same thing for the table of content block has instead of the, it had a long time convert to a static list. So it&#8217;s also not dynamic anymore. It&#8217;s now also called detach. I don&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s the same modal. I haven&#8217;t tested that yet, but it&#8217;s kind of a switch in. How, how we teach people about the attach and detach kind of thing, kind of the, the context of this is a dynamic block that you can actually free from the, from that automation.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik</em>: Yeah, we actually have the similar wording in the Grid plugin. So it&#8217;s, it&#8217;s very familiar to see here, detach this. Because we also have sort of like these dynamic features and you can detach stuff from these dynamic features to make them static. Basically what you just explained. It&#8217;s interesting to see that even though I don&#8217;t think anyone has ever, like I was not involved in this, but seeing this basically turning out exactly what we&#8217;ve been doing in a product already, it&#8217;s kind of interesting. So it&#8217;s, I guess, not the worst idea to do.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah. But like, especially when it&#8217;s kind of already done by you.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah, yeah, yeah. But like, it&#8217;s like to have a— not really consenting, but like to have a general understanding of that, this wording of detaching stuff and like having it dynamic is like universal, sort of. So, and this is kind of the language where we are going to. Yeah, it&#8217;s just great to see that there is not much that you have to reteach people because plugins have it done this way, but now core is like kind of catching up and you can use that knowledge that, okay, if I detach this, it&#8217;s no longer connected to it. And if it&#8217;s kind of dynamic, then okay, maybe there is some sort of connection. I mean, in a very broad sense now.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah. Yeah. Glad we can kind of continue in the consistency that you brought to your product in core.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik</em>: Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> It&#8217;s really, it&#8217;s my, And I was not involved. I just want to say that I was not involved in this one.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Don&#8217;t blame me. Yeah. So, so what&#8217;s next? I don&#8217;t know why I looked at that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Dynamic mode conversion, a single undo level. I think this was also part of that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack</em>: Yeah, I tested this dynamic gallery quite a bit because I couldn&#8217;t get my head around why that was important because I don&#8217;t— every time I&#8217;m in my block editor on a post, I upload images and I know they&#8217;re automatically attached, but I wouldn&#8217;t upload images in bulk in my editor. And then I kind of, it flipped for me that, okay, in the media library I can upload images in bulk and I can also in bulk attach it to a post. There&#8217;s a column there where you can attach it. And I said, okay, when you do that, then you really appreciate that you can have a gallery with that. So It took me a while to kind of get that because it&#8217;s a, it wasn&#8217;t a workflow that I wasn&#8217;t familiar with and I wouldn&#8217;t, wouldn&#8217;t have used. So what&#8217;s the dynamic mode conversion thingy? Undo?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> I think it&#8217;s just a sort of small life improvement that you, when you undo, so you have a dynamic gallery, then you kind of make it detached to stay with the, with the wording here. And then when I go back and said I made a mistake, Then you only have to press undo once instead of 15 times, twice, or multiple times for every image. Now the entire gallery gets basically back to the state it was in.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Pretty neat. Yes, I like it. So there were quite a few changes to the background image and to the global styles, but they are also minor. Yeah, there&#8217;s one thing that theme builders that use theme.json probably need to know about that is that the level block level preset class specificity has been changed through the :where command. So that is certainly something when you— that you might come across when you have a custom theme and you have some custom CSS and try to work with that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah, I think we had this kind of big thing last year when things got changed with the :where selector, and then you had to redo stuff because things were not applying or Again, applying to things depending on what it was. So yeah, that&#8217;s something we have to look out for to see. Because every time core is like changing something like this, you just need to double check that your stuff still works. Because I think, I wouldn&#8217;t say a lot, but I know it from the Greyd WP theme. We do use quite some extra styles to make the theme happen and have the blocks styled the way we would, we imagine it in our theme. And yeah, it&#8217;s just like revisiting your theme again to make sure things still work. To-do for the theme developers, definitely.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Right, right. Absolutely. And that is actually in 7.1. This was patched back to core during the release. Yeah. So that&#8217;s why I&#8217;m pointing that out. </p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Experiments</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And then the last thing I think is in the experiment section that the inheritance UI that we talked about quite a bit in this show is actually now only visible through the Gutenberg experiment screen. Yeah. So you need to switch it on to actually test it for yourself.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Good to know because, and I would&#8217;ve been very confused again if I just went, oh, let&#8217;s update to Gutenberg plugin. Why does this not show? Okay, let&#8217;s do a deep dive once again.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack</em>: Right. Yeah. So now you know.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> But that&#8217;s why it&#8217;s so helpful to have all these What&#8217;s New in Gutenberg blog posts, I have to say. Because they highlight everything and then you can go back and just like yesterday I was searching for something, why did this thing change? And that&#8217;s how I got back into like, okay, this was the change. Then obviously whatever is in the pull request is quite a kind of technical. And if you do not have technical people asking you the question, you kind of need to translate, okay, this happened because of that. And this is the reason for it because you just cannot send them a link to the pull request and here is it. And then they go back, what is it about?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> So yeah, well, it&#8217;s always— There&#8217;s one step that I use now is I share that URL with Claude and say, explain it to me like an 8-year-old or something like that. And then it kind of tells me what&#8217;s this about. I mean, and that&#8217;s when I know.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> It does work. But if the person is already with you and like, Jessica, what is—</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack</em>: No, no, of course.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> What is going on here? Then you&#8217;re like, Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack</em>: That&#8217;s how I get smarter.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah, it&#8217;s definitely, it, it helps me also. So I&#8217;m not just saying that this is, I did not use it in that case. I probably should have done this yesterday, but I like to search for things and find, figure things out, why, why things change and how they work. AI is like the shortcut to it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> And I do use it sometimes. Yeah, definitely. And, but I still like to. tinker and figure things out myself because that&#8217;s what I enjoy.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah, that&#8217;s one thing. That&#8217;s also when you learn, you know, if an AI kind of gets you something back, you have it for the moment, but it&#8217;s harder to retain that information for a longer period of time. You know, that&#8217;s how our brains work.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik</em>: That&#8217;s true.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah. If we, we need the challenges to overcome to actually learn something. Yeah. All right. That was our fast go through 23.7. </p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gutenberg 23.8</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">23.8 came out just this week. This week was the whole release week. Yeah. With, or last week with 7.0.4, 7.1, Gutenberg released 23.8.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jessica Lyschik: Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack</em>: It&#8217;s kind of a lot of information to disseminate. And I have found that the Gutenberg releases have more PRs in them than previous. Last year or something like that. So there are a lot of, a lot more people or the same people pushing more PRs into the release. It&#8217;s really interesting to go through all the changelogs and all that. So we might miss something. So in terms of collaboration, the notes feature got a new method, that is the email— that it emails users now that are mentioned in a note. So you have now— you can now mention people that are on the blog with an @ sign. And then once you save the note, it emails those users that they were mentioned and that there was a note for them to do or to look at, which is quite nice because not everybody goes to every site every time.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> So, yeah, or this specific blog post, because if you do not, are not working on that because you don&#8217;t know that your attention is needed there, then this is definitely a way that you can actually get to know that people are waiting for a reply for you.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Of you.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah. I&#8217;m still looking for that place where I can see all my comments on posts in one swoosh and not have to go into the post. I don&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s coming, but it&#8217;s definitely plugin territory. So if you want to have a good plugin, that&#8217;s definitely a feature request for me. Let me know if you start it out. Do you want to do the next one?</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Enhancements</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Visual revisions, add shareable URLs. Ooh, this is interesting. Yeah, I have been quite a fan of the visual revisions so far. I mean, I have not used them too much yet, but—</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Me too.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> It&#8217;s like, it&#8217;s just a whole new experience. And now you can actually get a shareable URL of that. So you can basically say, hey, here&#8217;s the URL to that specific change set. Here&#8217;s what I&#8217;m having trouble with, dealing with, whatever it is. This is actually kind of cool.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> That&#8217;s the one thing. And what I also can see is that you say, okay, this was the version before and this is it now. Yeah. So people say, what changed? Or wasn&#8217;t it better before kind of thing? Yeah. And then you can actually see it side by side or you say, okay, I have 2 versions of it. This is one version, this is the other one version. Which do you like? Yeah, kind of. So you don&#8217;t have to do the staging site just for little changes. You can actually put it on site, but you always have a main version there. So a live version. So yeah, be careful with that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> And that&#8217;s why you have revisions. So whenever you do something wrong, you can go back if you have revisions. So it&#8217;s that custom post types sometimes do not have revisions.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> And you have to turn that on when you register the post type. I think most plugins let you do that. And if you do not do it and you have no revisions.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yep.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> And it&#8217;s a bad thing.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah. I also learned that some of the shared hosting providers actually turn revisions off or just limit them to 3 revisions or 10 revisions. And then, yeah, I would be doomed because some of my posts have 100 revisions. For especially the source of truth. Yeah. So. Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah. You need to be aware of that sometimes. So there are different ways, not different ways. The way to limit the post revisions is through the, a constant in the wp-config file.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yep.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> And yeah, it&#8217;s true that shared hosts, they limit it probably because they do not want the data, the databases to blow up because every time a new revision is added, it is basically like a post in a database. You just do not see it, but it&#8217;s connected to the post. I think it&#8217;s, the post type should be revision or something. It&#8217;s not post. Yeah, it&#8217;s post type revision. So that&#8217;s why it&#8217;s filterable. And yeah, so yeah, if you have 100 revisions, you have like this blog post 100 times essentially in your database. If you just have a few blog posts, no one cares. But if you have a very huge site with a lot of posts and a lot of pages and maybe even WooCommerce running, for example, then your database goes whoosh and everything is huge. And yeah, so there is a good reason for it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Oh yeah, absolutely. Yeah, yeah, yeah. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And the next thing we actually talked about it, that the rename of the edit action to detach for page list and table of contents, that&#8217;s now in 23.8. So you can see that in your interface. Oh, and here it is also the opt-out for block style state controls. We talked about the opting out of the responsive styles. And in 23.8, you also find an opt-out method from the state controls, which is, I think, going through the same— no, it says block states enabled opt-out. So there is another variable filter for that on the block editor settings.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah, it basically follows the other one for the responsive styles. Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah. So it&#8217;s responsive styles editing enabled is the variable. And the other one is block states enabled. And setting that to false. What else is next?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Oh, more revisions. Add a code diff view inside the editor. Ooh, is it what it is? I think. Yeah, it is. It is actually what I think it is. So it&#8217;s kind of bringing back the old view that we had for revisions where it was just like this, like you know it from, if you&#8217;re a developer, you know how diffs look like. And now that we have the new visual revisions, now we can actually go back to that specific thing and maybe see if, I don&#8217;t know, any HTML tags have changed or any settings in there have changed, which is true that these are not as visible. With the visual revisions. So the visual revisions are great for like scanning the content and making sure like the content is as you wish or wanna go back or whatever. But yeah, I think this is actually a very good change to bring this kind of view back. Because if you need to go a bit more technical and see, okay, have block settings changed, for example, it&#8217;s not easy to see on the, on the visual.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Right. And they have tried to make this also available in this, in the inspector controls in the sidebar, if there are any block attributes changed. But I think it&#8217;s helpful to see it in a, in a code edit view better than just to name the block attribute how that changed. So it&#8217;s, yeah, I think it&#8217;s a good, good feature set to bring back. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Oh, and there was, I didn&#8217;t highlight that, but it&#8217;s, we talked about Presets management in 23.7. Now the— in 23.8, there&#8217;s also that font size presets and the shadow presets actually use this new preset management layer. So that&#8217;s actually already implemented and is now— it&#8217;s a code change in the background, but it&#8217;s actually streamlining the whole thing and makes it available for extensibility later on. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yeah, that was 23.8, and we are also almost coming up on the end of the show. It&#8217;s not the end of the changelog. This changelog was also really huge.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik</em>: The lists are endless for both 23.7 and 23.8. It&#8217;s probably also because of AI, I guess, has accelerated it quite a bit to get the pull requests done and finding things, fixing things, doing things. So it&#8217;s a lot. There&#8217;s a lot to go through, definitely.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Whats in Active Development or Discussed</strong></h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah, definitely. Yeah. So I have 2 things that are for active development and what&#8217;s discussed, and they&#8217;re both for 7.2. So Ella van Durpe has a tracking issue of block editor paper cuts, which means to, to list all the small annoyances that she could find that people have issues with and put them all in a list to be fixed. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So it might be big tasks like rethinking the appenders and inserters, how they actually behave, or writing flow, writing flow improvements, or even longstanding bugs that have been passing Excel to in the block editor, or selection quirks with Safari, or multi-block selections on iOS, or yeah, these kind of things. She found 48 issues to be fixed. If you have one that is not listed, feel free to put it in the issue and have it also on the list. She already fixed 9 items when I was putting this together. There might be even more now. So she definitely needs help with testing and commenting on those issues. So yeah, it&#8217;s a nice little literature for you if you have been working with the block editor for years and years and years, what you see that comes up. So I will share, of course, the link in the show notes. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And then, Anne McCarthy for 7.1 had actually said, the release lead, that it would be great to have, because it&#8217;s hard to follow which feature comes in and what are the plans and all that. And she needs it for roadmap. And other people like Jessica and I, we need to kind of see what&#8217;s going up, ongoing issues or features that are in the works so we can test them and we can kind of figure out things. So she asked the teams that are working on features to actually put tracking issues together for the certain versions. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So quite a few actually have already put in the tracking issues for 7.2, and I will share the search link. I haven&#8217;t gone through them yet to study them, but there&#8217;s an iteration issue for the notes features, for the dynamic galleries, for the media editor modal, for the pattern editing. Also how to extend the site editor. I&#8217;m really very happy to see that. Then of course for the responsive styles. And so all the ongoing things. Or Maggie&#8217;s custom states for blocks tracking issue. So you can follow along on the things because then they have sub-issues and you see which ones have already been merged and which ones are already in the works and are in review or these kinds of things. So it&#8217;s really good to follow along. It&#8217;s not for everybody because GitHub is not for everybody, but it&#8217;s definitely something to go there. And if you want, I haven&#8217;t mentioned it yet.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dear listeners, this will be the last episode on the Gutenberg changelog until December. There will be a break. And I&#8217;m very grateful for the break because Automattic, after a 5-year anniversary, allows you to go on sabbatical for 3 months. And I&#8217;m starting mine next week. So this is the last episode of the Gutenberg changelog. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There will be a Gutenberg Weekend Edition, certainly not every weekend, but Justin Tadlock is going to take that on and he will do it either biweekly or monthly. It&#8217;s not quite sure yet because he has other duties, but he&#8217;s definitely looking forward to writing those weekend editions. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, dear listeners, take the link to the tracking issue as your homework for the next 3 months on my break. And of course, study every Gutenberg release in the meantime. I think I checked it out. So this was 23.8. And in November, when I get back, we will already beony 24.4 Gutenberg releases. So there are quite a few releases in there. 6 exactly. I will not catch up on those, but I will catch up on the 7.1— 7.2 again, 7.2 release, because it&#8217;s only about 10 days away when I get back. So that&#8217;s definitely the first episode that we are going to do in December. Yeah. Anything that you wanna talk about here that we haven&#8217;t covered yet?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik</em>: No, I think, I think you made a very good thing. I didn&#8217;t know about editor paper cuts PR. Well, my homework is getting longer and longer for the weekend. Definitely.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> I mean, it will be sad to not have a Gutenberg changelog for the next couple weeks, but I guess it&#8217;s well deserved that you go on a sabbatical.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Well, thank you.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> And I feel very honored that I have been on the last show for now. And yeah, let&#8217;s see. If we can catch up.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yes, absolutely. Absolutely. Just to make sure it&#8217;s not a couple of weeks, it&#8217;s 12 weeks. So a long couple weeks, 6 couple of weeks. So, and yeah, I will share how you can reach Jessica on all the interwebs with the show notes so she doesn&#8217;t have to repeat it here. But I want to also point out she&#8217;s sometimes on the Greyd podcast with the Greyd conversations. And there are quite a few interesting episodes there. I&#8217;ll send, put also the link into the— is there one that you wanna point out about block editor or block themes or so that you had?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Oh, I have not been on the show in quite a while.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Okay.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> I have been very busy in the background. So, but we do have very interesting shows. I think the latest ones were with Katie Keith and Matt Cromwell about products and, and stuff. I think there was one more person on there. I know this is horribly bad for me.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack</em>: No, no worries. No, I put you on the spot there, so don&#8217;t worry about it. But I mean, I can— I was trying to look it up. It&#8217;s about product companies and—</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yeah, it&#8217;s about a product business. And maybe just— I think we redo that and I would just like to correctly say it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> Yeah. It&#8217;s How Can Product Companies Grow in WordPress Space Right Now? And it was with Katie Keith, as you said, and Aurelio Volle. He&#8217;s the founder.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Oh, Aurelio. Yeah. WP Umbrella.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> WP Umbrella and Matt Crumbrall, founder of Roots and Fruits. Roots and Fruits.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yes.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack</em>: And they are, they&#8217;re talking about product companies and how they can be successful in the WordPress space, especially now. With or without AI and with the abundance of plugins now. So it&#8217;s gonna be interesting to see how you can build a business there. All right.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Jessica Lyschik:</em> Yep.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Birgit Pauli-Haack:</em> As always, the show notes will be published on <a href=\"http://gutenberg-times.com/podcast\">gutenberg-times.com/podcast</a>. This is episode 134. And if you have questions, suggestions that can wait until December, send me an email to <a href=\"mailto:changelog@gutenberg-times.com\">changelog@gutenberg-times.com</a>. That&#8217;s <a href=\"mailto:changelog@gutenberg-times.com\">changelog@gutenberg-times.com</a>. Caveat there, I&#8217;m not gonna pick up email during sabbatical on the Gutenbergtimes.com or on Automattic and very, very sporadically on my Gmail account. But yeah, send me things and you will see what happens. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thanks, Jessica, for being with me on the show. Thank you all for listening.

WordCamp US came to an end and WordPress 7.1 was released. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your WordPress profile now has a shortcut w.org/@[yourusername]. If you want to check out mine <a href=\"https://w.org/@bph\">w.org/@bph</a> (don&#8217;t forget the @ sign) . Mullenweg mentioned in his closing fire side chat that this could actually work without the redirect in the future. Now that would be cool, right?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another cool and rather weird thing Mullenweg mentioned are Piplets. One self-contained PHP-file for your notes, no database, no hosting needed, for tinkerers who live in the Terminal window. If that&#8217;s you, grab the file from the <a href=\"https://github.com/wordpress/piplets\">GitHub repo</a> and try it out. (64-bit PHP 8.1 or newer is required.)

Version 3.9.0 adds WordPress 7.1 support and announces row and column selection to screen readers.

That&#8217;s not a criticism — it&#8217;s a reading list. If the future is going to be built on this stuff, the WordPress community should be fluent in it. Here&#8217;s the homework.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How models are actually trained</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When I asked who knew about the reinforcement learning models go through, Robert looked out and said &#8220;I see no yeses.&#8221; Base models are trained to predict the next word across huge amounts of text; the friendly, helpful behavior comes after, in post-training, where human/AI feedback reinforces some responses over others. If you use these tools every day, understanding that pipeline changes how you prompt them and what you expect from them.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Start with Hugging Face&#8217;s <a href=\"https://huggingface.co/blog/rlhf\">Illustrating RLHF</a>, a visual explainer. Chip Huyen&#8217;s <a href=\"https://huyenchip.com/2023/05/02/rlhf.html\">RLHF deep dive</a> is the best longer read, and Anthropic&#8217;s <a href=\"https://arxiv.org/abs/2212.08073\">Constitutional AI paper</a> shows where post-training went next. If you only have time for one thing, watch Andrej Karpathy&#8217;s <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xTGNNLPyMI\">Deep Dive into LLMs</a> — pretraining, fine-tuning, reinforcement learning, and why models behave the way they do, all in one sitting.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Uncensored models</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Almost nobody had tried an <a href=\"https://huggingface.co/OBLITERATUS/Qwen3.8-27B-OBLITERATED\">OBLITERATED</a> model. Since refusal behavior is added in post-training, researchers found it can also be removed — it turns out to be, roughly, a single direction inside the model that you can subtract out. Maxime Labonne&#8217;s <a href=\"https://huggingface.co/blog/mlabonne/abliteration\">Uncensor any LLM with abliteration</a> explains the technique, and the paper behind it, <a href=\"https://arxiv.org/abs/2406.11717\">Refusal in Language Models Is Mediated by a Single Direction</a>, is short and genuinely fascinating. Whatever you think of the applications, it&#8217;s worth understanding that open weights mean the community can modify these models, the same way the GPL means you can modify WordPress.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The open-weight wave</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Only a few hands went up for Qwen 3.8. The open-weight models coming out of Chinese labs — <a href=\"https://huggingface.co/Qwen\">Qwen</a>, <a href=\"https://huggingface.co/deepseek-ai\">DeepSeek</a>, <a href=\"https://huggingface.co/moonshotai\">Kimi</a>, <a href=\"https://huggingface.co/zai-org\">GLM</a> — are at or near the frontier at a fraction of the cost, and the smaller ones run on a laptop. I demoed one from this MacBook on stage.

Then, goal owners gave 30-second pitches, and contributors could move between teams when that work caught their interest.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-4 is-cropped has-black-background-color has-background wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-container-core-gallery-is-layout-db4b8a9e wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\" style=\"border-width: 20px; border-radius: 2px;\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21468\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/260816_WCUS_WL-1152.jpg?resize=683%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"683\" /><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\">\n <svg fill=\"none\" height=\"12\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\" width=\"12\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/2000/svg\">\n <path d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" fill=\"#fff\">\n </svg>\n </button></figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21470\" height=\"683\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/260816_WCUS_WL-1274.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\">\n <svg fill=\"none\" height=\"12\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\" width=\"12\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/2000/svg\">\n <path d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" fill=\"#fff\">\n </svg>\n </button></figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21549\" height=\"683\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/JQ301171.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\">\n <svg fill=\"none\" height=\"12\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\" width=\"12\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/2000/svg\">\n <path d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" fill=\"#fff\">\n </svg>\n </button></figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21469\" height=\"683\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/260816_WCUS_WL-1266.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\">\n <svg fill=\"none\" height=\"12\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\" width=\"12\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/2000/svg\">\n <path d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" fill=\"#fff\">\n </svg>\n </button></figure>\n</figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By days end, contributors had closed tickets, opened and shipped pull requests, and reviewed themes for accessibility.

Sites have to keep working smoothly for the people who publish, maintain, and depend on them. The case studies came from public services, independent publishers, community platforms, training systems, and large content operations.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/speaker/manny-costa/\">Manny Costa</a> covered the first of those: civic websites where residents find services, apply for programs, read emergency information, and report problems. In that work, accessibility, governance, and editor workflows are part of the service rather than a final check box.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two of the case studies were about publishers taking back ownership of their content. Both sites now appear in the WordPress Showcase.</p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-7387b849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21499\" height=\"403\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/wordpress.org_showcase_the-ankler_WordPress-Showcase-Desktop.png?resize=1024%2C403&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">See <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/showcase/the-ankler/\">The Ankler</a> in the WordPress Showcase</figcaption></figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/own-your-audience-how-the-ankler-escaped-substack-and-took-back-control/\">Nicola Cattons session</a> described how The Ankler moved 15 newsletters to WordPress and took direct control of its content, subscriber data, revenue rules, and reader experience. Nicola detailed the massive migration, the thousands of rebuilt paywall boundaries, and the site&#8217;s brand-new block theme.</p>\n</div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21500\" height=\"403\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/wordpress.org_showcase_daily-kos_WordPress-Showcase-Desktop.png?resize=1024%2C403&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">See <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/showcase/daily-kos/\">Daily Kos</a> in the WordPress Showcase</figcaption></figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Daily Kos migration was a similarly large-scale move. <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/when-the-platform-belongs-to-its-users-migrating-daily-kos-at-scale/\">Ben Greeley and Allison McHenry</a> centered their session on a community that writes as well as reads: 1.5 million posts, 88 million comments, and 2.7 million users, with a public beta that involved more than 500 community members.</p>\n</div>\n</div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other sessions dealt with the people who do the publishing once a site is live. In <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/agents-need-good-tools-too-designing-an-editorial-experience-for-humans-and-ai-alike/\">Aviral Mittals session</a>, an AI agent built a page from a Google Doc using patterns the team had already defined. <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/speaker/andrew-adam/\">Andrew Adam</a> described a library of about 100 written and video guides, with accessibility guidance included. Shared foundations covered repeat questions, while project-specific help and tips inside the editor handled the rest.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Human Judgment in the Loop</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Early on, Bo English-Wiczling had opened Showcase Day by addressing the gap between rapid AI adoption and trust. Her <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/keynote/\">keynote</a> covered the move in developer work toward setting intent and supplying context.</p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AI doesnt remove your work. It moves it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>&#8211; Bo English-Wiczling</em></p>\n</blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A first draft can now arrive in seconds, but an almost-right block of code may still miss keyboard navigation, use the wrong theme styles, or bring an unsafe dependency into a project.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The importance of good judgment is familiar to the WordPress community. Bo tied it to habits WordPress contributors already have: reading other peoples code, submitting small changes, reviewing pull requests, and accepting critique in the open.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-4 is-cropped has-black-background-color has-background wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-container-core-gallery-is-layout-db4b8a9e wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\" style=\"border-width: 20px; border-radius: 2px;\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img alt=\"Bo English-Wiczling speaking on stage\" class=\"wp-image-21484\" height=\"683\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/260816_WCUS_WL-2187.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\">\n <svg fill=\"none\" height=\"12\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\" width=\"12\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/2000/svg\">\n <path d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" fill=\"#fff\">\n </svg>\n </button></figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img alt=\"Loyal Pyczynski speaking on stage\" class=\"wp-image-21485\" height=\"683\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/260816_WCUS_WL-3168.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\">\n <svg fill=\"none\" height=\"12\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\" width=\"12\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/2000/svg\">\n <path d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" fill=\"#fff\">\n </svg>\n </button></figure>\n</figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The next morning, Loyal Pyczynski drew on his work at Disney and Meta for a keynote about tests, time, and creative confidence. His <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vE1fS1sLpQ\">talk</a> returned to a phrase from an Imagineering colleague.</p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We need to make sure that we make better mistakes tomorrow. Success is an iterative endeavor, and time is our most precious resource.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>&#8211; Loyal Pyczynski</em></p>\n</blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Loyal described Disney teams that paired creative and technical leads early, then brought in experts for work another team could do better or faster. The goal was not to know everything but to know what the team should own.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Design and publishing sessions drew similar conclusions as the keynotes. <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/speaker/michelle-hunt/\">Michelle Hunt</a> framed design systems as living feedback systems that need to preserve intent as production gets faster.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/speaker/k-adam-white/\">K Adam White</a>s session centered on moving large stores of content into block patterns, with editors staying involved where automatic conversion still needed judgment. <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/abilities-api-for-humans/\">Nik McLaughlins Abilities API session</a> looked beyond AI integrations to the broader structure the API gives WordPress developers. <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/the-site-is-the-source-of-truth-block-themes-ai-and-agency-workflows/\">Brian Coords</a> made a related case through block themes: approved patterns, templates, and real content offer a starting point, and design tokens add guidance that a blank-page prompt cannot provide.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Machine translation got the same treatment. In a <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/lost-in-machine-translation-ai-wordpress-and-the-translations-nobody-saw-coming/\">multilingual WordPress multisite case study</a> of AI translation for technical content, native-speaking colleagues found output that was correct word by word and could still miss the intended meaning. Human review covered the gap between translating language and translating intent.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The judgment question even reached hiring. <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/the-making-of-a-wordpress-certification/\">The Making of a WordPress Certification</a> introduced a standards-based certification and covered how the credential was created, checked, governed, and delivered.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trust Becomes a Product Practice</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wednesday morning took the trust question outside the WordPress world. The day opened with a <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/keynote-2-2/\">fireside chat</a> between Amanda Ventura of Waymo and David Levine on what it takes for people to trust technology that moves through their streets.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-4 is-cropped has-black-background-color has-background wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-container-core-gallery-is-layout-db4b8a9e wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\" style=\"border-width: 20px; border-radius: 2px;\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img alt=\"Amanda Ventura speaking on stage\" class=\"wp-image-21528\" height=\"683\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/260819_WCUS_WL-4116.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\">\n <svg fill=\"none\" height=\"12\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\" width=\"12\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/2000/svg\">\n <path d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" fill=\"#fff\">\n </svg>\n </button></figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img alt=\"View of WCUS stage with Amanda Ventura and David Levine\" class=\"wp-image-21554\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/260819_WCUS_WL-4111.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\">\n <svg fill=\"none\" height=\"12\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\" width=\"12\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/2000/svg\">\n <path d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" fill=\"#fff\">\n </svg>\n </button></figure>\n</figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ventura described trust as repeated work. Teams can publish safety data and listen before arriving in a new city, and they need a path for product teams to act on feedback. Her example came from accessibility testing. Screen-reader support helped blind and low-vision riders use the Waymo app, but it did not solve the physical problem of finding the right car. Feedback led to step-by-step directions and a horn control with a distinct musical tone that was easier to identify on busy city streets.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other sessions applied that standard to WordPress sites. WordPress Core committer <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/speaker/jonathan-desrosiers/\">Jonathan Desrosiers</a> focused on supply-chain safety while <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5_hxy2ET8Y\">Robert Abelas session</a> explored login security. AI tools can find security flaws faster than ever. That speed raises the need for careful checks.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The rest of Wednesdays schedule included sessions on security, accessibility, design, AI tools, and work for site owners.</p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/is-your-wordpress-site-legally-ready-for-ai/\">Kathy Zants session</a> proposed an audit for AI use, covering plugins, themes, content pipelines, and client sites, and it named consent, data location, disclosure, and legal review as questions teams should settle before launch.</li>\n\n\n\n<li>Another <a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/your-client-wants-ai-their-lawyer-just-said-no/\">case-based session</a> compared two responses to navigation problems: one client received an AI search tool, and another received a predictable interface that editors could control. The planned lesson was simple. AI can be the right choice without being the automatic choice.</li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/session/beyond-plugins-real-accessibility-for-wordpress-websites/\">Joseph LoPrestes session</a> explored accessibility work no single plugin can complete: navigation, forms, headings, images, content, and interactive elements.</li>\n</ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Learning With Your Laptop Open</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress beginner workshops ran throughout the event for first-time builders, with no hosting account or prior WordPress experience required. Participants made pages, posts, logos, and menus, and each person left with a WordPress site, a year of hosting, and a domain. These sessions laid groundwork to work with plugins, styles, and additional features. The beginner program, office hours, and Happiness Bar gave people several places to ask questions and get hands-on experience.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-4 is-cropped has-black-background-color has-background wp-block-gallery-5 is-layout-flex wp-container-core-gallery-is-layout-db4b8a9e wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\" style=\"border-width: 20px; border-radius: 2px;\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21487\" height=\"678\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/260816_WCUS_WL-3374.png?resize=1017%2C678&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1017\" /><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\">\n <svg fill=\"none\" height=\"12\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\" width=\"12\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/2000/svg\">\n <path d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" fill=\"#fff\">\n </svg>\n </button></figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21488\" height=\"683\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/260818_WCUS_EC_01145.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\">\n <svg fill=\"none\" height=\"12\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\" width=\"12\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/2000/svg\">\n <path d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" fill=\"#fff\">\n </svg>\n </button></figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21489\" height=\"683\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/260818_WCUS_EC_00680.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\">\n <svg fill=\"none\" height=\"12\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\" width=\"12\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/2000/svg\">\n <path d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" fill=\"#fff\">\n </svg>\n </button></figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21490\" height=\"683\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/260817_WCUS_EC_00319.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\">\n <svg fill=\"none\" height=\"12\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\" width=\"12\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/2000/svg\">\n <path d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" fill=\"#fff\">\n </svg>\n </button></figure>\n</figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More advanced technical workshops offered even experts the chance to hone their skills.</p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https://us.wordcamp.org/2026/speaker/lukasz-wilczak-2/\">Łukasz Wilczak</a> focused on reusable WP-CLI commands.

Matt&#8217;s thesis was simple: Tech needs to be simpler.</p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I want WordPress to be known for simplicity, not just complexity.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>&#8211; Matt Mullenweg</em></p>\n</blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After a detour through why AI models now prefer simple, self-contained HTML files, the argument became tangible with WordPress Piplets, a 2007 idea built around a single self-modifying PHP file that stores its own data, with no database and no third-party packages. One file can hold up to 25 megabytes, about four million words, and load in about 50 milliseconds. For Mullenweg, it extends the experiments that took WordPress from MySQL to SQLite to <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/playground/\">Playground</a>, and he floated the idea of a WordPress.org directory where people could publish, fork, and remix.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking of WordPress.org, it was announced that profile links are getting shorter, with w.org/username redirects like <a href=\"https://w.org/@matt\">w.org/@matt</a> already live, with full support just a few days away.</p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-7387b849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0; margin-left: 0;\"><a href=\"https://wordpress.org/download/releases/7-1/\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21520\" height=\"535\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/image-3.png?resize=1024%2C535&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /></a></figure>\n</div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Midway through, release leads were called up to press the button on the WordPress 7.1 release, and were awarded with applause as <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/download/releases/7-1/\">“Mary Lou”</a> received hundreds of thousands of downloads.</p>\n</div>\n</div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On contribution, Mullenweg expressed his desire to reward impact instead of pledges. The <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/five-for-the-future/\">Five for the Future</a> directory shows two million self-sponsored hours pledged each week from 150,000 contributors, and he questioned whether that reflects reality. The project already records what actually happened (commits, posts, tickets closed, WordCamps organized), and he wants recognition built on that record. He asked the same of the plugin directory, suggesting a focus on fewer better-working things.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Audience questions covered AI licensing, data centers, and why open source communities compete more than they collaborate. On that last one, Mullenweg invited other open source leaders to speak at WordCamp, and encouraged working together. Copying good code between projects, he said, is the entire point of open source.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-4 is-cropped has-black-background-color has-background wp-block-gallery-7 is-layout-flex wp-container-core-gallery-is-layout-db4b8a9e wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\" style=\"border-width: 20px; border-radius: 2px;\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21513\" height=\"683\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/260819_WCUS_WL-4485.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\">\n <svg fill=\"none\" height=\"12\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\" width=\"12\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/2000/svg\">\n <path d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" fill=\"#fff\">\n </svg>\n </button></figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21516\" height=\"683\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/260819_WCUS_WL-4575.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\">\n <svg fill=\"none\" height=\"12\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\" width=\"12\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/2000/svg\">\n <path d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" fill=\"#fff\">\n </svg>\n </button></figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21517\" height=\"683\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/260819_WCUS_WL-4588.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\">\n <svg fill=\"none\" height=\"12\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\" width=\"12\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/2000/svg\">\n <path d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" fill=\"#fff\">\n </svg>\n </button></figure>\n</figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jacobi closed by asking who was at their first WordCamp; he had met more first-timers here, he said, than in the past ten years.

An AFK (Away From Keyboard) room offered a quiet place away from the crowds. In the Sponsor Hall, people painted Wapuus with a local Phoenix artist, watched screen-printing, and talked between product demonstrations.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery

Through all of it, she kept reinventing her own sound. In the 1940s, she turned her Harlem apartment into a nightly workshop where Thelonious Monk, Dizzy Gillespie, and Bud Powell came to trade ideas and shape bebop itself. That combination of reinvention and collaboration inspired WordPress 7.1.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let the range of <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCha4zVvYM9Tv8Hx0Q9lN_jQ\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Mary Lous music</a> carry you through everything 7.1 offers.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Welcome to WordPress 7.1!</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress 7.1 is built around how you work: navigating the admin, controlling your designs, collaborating with others, and building what you want. The admin bar now follows you across the entire admin experience, putting the tools you need within reach, whether you&#8217;re writing a post or editing your site&#8217;s design. Built-in responsive styling, added to the current show/hide options for blocks, means you can ensure your site looks exactly how you want across screen sizes, without custom CSS. A new media editor keeps the familiar Crop button entry point, and brings freeform and aspect-ratio cropping, horizontal and vertical flipping, fine-grained and snap rotation, and metadata editing into one dedicated workflow. Leave Notes anywhere in your content—no longer limited to the block level. Rich text support and @mentions make it easier to collaborate with others as you write. Two new blocks, Playlist and Tabs, as well as a new API to register your own set of icons for the Icon block, give you even more flexibility to build what you want without additional plugins. These are just the highlights! Read on to see everything WordPress 7.1 has to offer.</p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https://wordpress.org/wordpress-7.1.zip\">Download WordPress 7.1</a></div>\n</div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What&#8217;s inside</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There&#8217;s a lot packed into WordPress 7.1 across new styling tools, updated media flows, added Notes functionality, and more. Some changes add new capabilities, while others refine existing tools and workflows.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here&#8217;s a closer look at what&#8217;s new in this release, starting with the release video:</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n\n</div></figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Apply responsive styles</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Style your content your way, on every screen.</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress 7.1 brings more responsive controls directly into the Site Editor. Style how a block looks at different screen sizes from Global Styles or in individual block settings, without custom CSS. You can also preview your changes at different viewport sizes as you work, making it straightforward to build layouts that adapt to the way people browse the web.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21424\" height=\"632\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/Apply-responsive-styles.webp?resize=1024%2C632&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Admin bar, now in every editor</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Consistent navigation, from dashboard to editor.</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The WordPress admin bar now stays with you as you move across all editors, so you always know where you are and have easy access to familiar tools. The admin bar also features some small visual updates to more fully polish the experience. </p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21428\" height=\"632\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/Admin-bar-now-in-every-editor-1024x632.webp?resize=1024%2C632&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A new way to crop</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>One dedicated workflow for editing your images.</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A new media editor modal replaces the previous inline cropping tool, bringing together freeform and aspect-ratio cropping, horizontal and vertical flipping, precise rotation control, and metadata editing together in one place. The familiar Crop button still gets you there.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21430\" height=\"632\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/A-new-way-to-crop.webp?resize=1024%2C632&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Inline notes with mentions and rich text</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>More ways to leave feedback.</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Notes now support rich text and mentions, making it easier to leave clear feedback and loop in the right people. Format your Notes with bold, italic, and code, add links, or type <code>@</code> to mention a collaborator and notify them.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can also leave a note on a specific piece of text instead of just an entire block, keep multiple conversations going on the same block, and collapse longer notes to keep the margin tidy. It&#8217;s built for the back-and-forth that happens when people review content together.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21434\" height=\"632\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/Inline-notes-with-mentions-and-rich-text.webp?resize=1024%2C632&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Improved media handling</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Faster, more flexible image processing.</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Image compression, resizing, and thumbnail generation now happen in the browser, reducing server load and producing smaller files — without hitting PHP memory limits or upload timeouts.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Media handling in 7.1 also includes native support for AVIF, HEIC, and HDR gain maps, adding native support for the image formats modern cameras and phones already produce.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21437\" height=\"632\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/More-image-formats-with-faster-uploads.webp?resize=1024%2C632&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Enhanced details and new blocks</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress 7.1 also adds two new blocks, along with more ways to customize how content looks and behaves.</p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Create playlists</h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bring multiple audio tracks together in one playlist, with an optional waveform that gives listeners a visual sense of each track as it plays.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21439\" height=\"632\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/Create-playlists.webp?resize=1024%2C632&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Customize responsive breakpoints</h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Block themes can now define their own mobile and tablet breakpoints in theme.json, overriding the defaults for responsive styles and block visibility.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21441\" height=\"632\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/Customize-responsive-breakpoints.webp?resize=1024%2C632&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Organize with tabs</h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Organize content into tabbed panels instead of showing everything at once—a cleaner way to present related information without crowding your content.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21443\" height=\"1581\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/Organize-with-tabs-scaled.webp?resize=2560%2C1581&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"2560\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Add custom icons</h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Developers can extend WordPress&#8217;s icon library with their own collections, making custom icons available throughout the editor alongside the built-in library.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21444\" height=\"632\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/Add-custom-icons.webp?resize=1024%2C632&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Set interactive styles</h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Give Button blocks distinct styles for hover, focus, and active states directly in the editor&#8217;s style controls. Set the styles for just one button or all buttons.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21446\" height=\"632\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/Set-interactive-styles.webp?resize=1024%2C632&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A more consistent editing experience</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The post editor is now fully iframed for all themes, matching the Site Editor.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The editing canvas runs separately from the WordPress admin interface, so admin styles dont interfere with your content. Viewport-relative units and media queries now target the editing canvas directly, so responsive layouts behave more predictably as you build. The change is mostly invisible, but the result is a more reliable and consistent editor.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Developer&#8217;s toolbox</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Advanced tools for building your way.</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress 7.1 expands several of the APIs and tools developers use to build on WordPress, with new options for icons, automation, admin interfaces, and responsive styling.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The SVG Icon API is now a public API, allowing developers to register their own icon collections and icons and use them throughout the editor with functions such as <code>wp_register_icon_collection(), wp_register_icon(), and wp_get_icon().</code></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Abilities API builds on the infrastructure introduced in WordPress 6.9 with a filterable execution lifecycle, custom validation, and shared discovery. These additions make it easier to build integrations and automation on top of WordPress, including AI-powered tooling.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A new Design System provides foundational support for theming WordPress admin interfaces, including color, roundness, and cursor styles. Developers can use semantic design tokens and the <code>ThemeProvider</code> React component to bring more consistency to custom admin interfaces while still feeling at home in WordPress.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Theme authors also get responsive styling and pseudo-state styling for hover, focus, focus-visible, and active states through <code>theme.json</code>, along with new filters for configuring the DataViews and DataForm screens that power Pages, Templates, Parts, and Patterns in the Site Editor.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Accessibility</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress 7.1 continues to improve accessibility across WordPress Core and the editor. New <code>wp_get_tooltip()</code> and <code>wp_get_toggletip()</code> functions bring accessible tooltips to more areas of the WordPress admin, including post meta boxes and the login screen.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Screen reader support also improves across admin interfaces, with clearer labeling and more predictable navigation in post list tables. The new Tab and Playlist blocks, along with improvements to editor navigation and interaction, add to the broader accessibility work included in this release.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Together, these changes continue to make WordPress easier to navigate and use for more people.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Performance improvements</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Image compression, resizing, and thumbnail generation now run in the browser (via a WebAssembly build of libvips), reducing the processing load on your server and helping avoid memory limits and timeouts with larger uploads.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Opt-in GIF-to-video conversion produces typically smaller files, while upload progress indicators and automatic retries make uploads more resilient when connections drop.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Media Library now uses infinite scrolling by default, with a per-user option to return to pagination. Speculative loading defaults can now be set through environment variables or constants, so hosts and site owners can configure how WordPress prefetches pages without writing a plugin.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">And much more!</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a comprehensive overview of everything new and improved in WordPress 7.1, visit the feature showcase website.</p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https://wordpress.org/download/releases/7-1/\">Check out what&#8217;s new in 7.1</a></div>\n</div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Learn more about WordPress 7.1</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://learn.wordpress.org/\">Learn WordPress</a> is a free resource for new and experienced WordPress users.

My name is Nathan Wrigley.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jukebox is a podcast which is dedicated to all things WordPress, the people, the events, the plugins, the blocks, the themes, and in this case, the decline of WordPress work on Upwork, and the rise of new opportunities.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;d like to subscribe to the podcast, you can do that by searching for WP Tavern in your podcast player of choice, or by going to wptavern.com/feed/podcast, and you can copy that URL into most podcast players.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have a topic that you&#8217;d like us to feature on the podcast, I&#8217;m keen to hear from you and hopefully get you, or your idea, featured on the show. Head to wptavern.com/contact/jukebox and use the form there.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So on the podcast today, we have Adrian Sticea. Adrian has been working in the WordPress space since 2013, starting out as a developer for small companies. Then moving into freelancing, agency roles in the US, major projects at IBM, a, stint at StellarWP, and extensive work with enterprise level clients.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most recently, Adrian&#8217;s post on LinkedIn about the dramatic drop off in WordPress work through the Upwork platform, went viral, sparking many conversations and comments.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I suspect that many WordPress professionals listening have seen shifts in their freelance workloads, and maybe wondering what&#8217;s behind these changes. And Adrian is here to share his own data-driven account.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He talks about his experience using Upwork as a primary source of project leads. How for years it was a reliable fountain of work, but recently the flow has all but dried up.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We dive into the possible causes, the impact of AI making developers more efficient, and thus reducing hiring demand, changes in the broader economy, increasing competition from rival platforms, and how the nature of WordPress work itself is changing.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Adrian mentions the difference between simple website builds, which are still in demand on Upwork, and complex plugin or enterprise projects, which he thinks might have migrated elsewhere.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We also talk about diversification, whether it&#8217;s a mistake to rely on just one marketplace for freelance work, and the importance of building real relationships, collecting testimonials, and seeking recommendations. Adrian shares how he&#8217;s pivoted, leveraging LinkedIn for networking, connecting directly with agencies, and building partnerships with recruiters and temp agencies.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;ve ever felt your freelance pipeline shrink, are curious where the most interesting WordPress work has gone, or want to hear how other professionals are adapting to marketplace shifts, this episode is for you.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re interested in finding out more, you can find all of the links in the show notes by heading to wptavern.com/podcast, where you&#8217;ll find all the other episodes as well.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so without further delay, I bring you Adrian Sticea.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am joined on the podcast by Adrian Sticea. Hello, Adrian.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:03:34] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Hey.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:03:34] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Very nice to have you with us. Adrian is joining us today because of something that he posted on LinkedIn, which captured my attention.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;m not a frequent lurker on LinkedIn, and so I don&#8217;t really know how the algorithm works. But Adrian and I have, as far as I know, not been in communication with each other before. But, Adrian&#8217;s post went really viral, I think it&#8217;s fair to say, and it certainly caught my attention and got into my feed.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And it&#8217;s all about the state of work in the WordPress space at the moment, particularly through a particular platform. And we&#8217;ll get into that in a minute, though. Adrian, if it&#8217;s okay with you, do you want to just tell us a little bit about your backstory? What it is that you&#8217;ve been doing these many years and so on?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:04:15] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Sure. I started working as a WordPress developer in 2013. I worked for a couple of small companies, local companies that needed kind of customer support, and also web development. And after that I started doing freelancing for about two years. I moved to the US in 2016, that&#8217;s when I started to look around for better paid jobs.. And I started working as a WordPress developer for a digital marketing agency, and I did that for, about a year and something.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2018, I joined IBM to work on one of their WordPress projects. I think it was the largest WordPress one that they had at the moment. Basically it was a learning platform, and the courses were about technology, programming and other stuff. I left IBM at end of 2020 because of multiple factors, and I started doing freelancing.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I freelanced for about three years and after that I joined StellarWP, where I worked in the marketing department as one of their web engineers. And I worked there for about a year and a half. And at start of 2025 I started doing freelancing again. And since 2018, I mostly worked with enterprise-level companies and more complex work than just building websites.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That&#8217;s the stuff that I&#8217;ve been doing for the past.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:05:40] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Thank you for that, and all of that really plays into what we&#8217;re going to talk about because, what I&#8217;ll do is I&#8217;ll link to the post that Adrian wrote, which kind of went viral on LinkedIn. And the first thing you&#8217;re probably going to capture is there&#8217;s a graph at the bottom, and it&#8217;s a line graph, and it&#8217;s not pleasant to look at this line graph. Because it starts off and there&#8217;s this blue line and it&#8217;s fairly high up on the on the axis and it moves across horizontally. And it just goes along and along and then it just starts to tail downwards until finally, it hits the axis and it basically zeros out.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so I caught sight of that and I thought, &#8220;okay, that&#8217;s interesting.&#8221; And then caught sight of the word WordPress, you know, and you being a WordPress developer, and then noticed that this was the volume of work that you had been receiving. And we&#8217;re talking about volume of work coming through a particular platform. The platform is called Upwork.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, I confess I don&#8217;t know a lot about Upwork, so we can get into that in a moment. But essentially, it looks like from the year 2015 through 2020, more or less everything that you did, bar a couple of percent, maybe 5% in some years and what have you, was through the Upwork platform. And then by the year 2022, 20% of that had been shaved off, so down to 80%. A year later, 2023, 60% and then 40%. And then in this year, 2026, 0%. And I caught sight of that and I thought, &#8220;okay, we&#8217;ve got to talk about this,&#8221; because there&#8217;s a lot of interest in the WordPress space at the moment.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So do you just want to just run us through your journey with the kind of work that you&#8217;ve been doing through Upwork and, you know how it&#8217;s tailed off? And then maybe we can get into the discussion about perhaps why this is happening.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:07:32] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Sure. Just to preface, I had periods of time where I worked on Upwork just part-time, not as a full-time freelancer because I had jobs here and there.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:07:43] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Ok, yeah yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:07:44] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> And I was actually calculating this morning how much time I was full-time freelancing and full-time on a job, and it was kind of split in half. So basically, half of my professional career was spent as a freelancer, and the other half was doing part-time. So if I had a job, I will search for other avenues to get a bit more revenue in. And also I didn&#8217;t like the idea of just relying on one source of income.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So I always had running in the background, the project, a couple of hours here and there or, a week or a project a month that doing. And that graph represents the number of basically of leads and projects that I got from Upwork over the years.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:08:28] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Okay.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:08:28] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Even if it&#8217;s full-time or part-time, basically that was kind of the lead source that I primarily used.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:08:34] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> And so what we&#8217;re seeing, I guess is you, like many people in the WordPress industry, you&#8217;ve taken the approach that, subscribe to a bunch of these, I&#8217;m going to call it a marketplace, you know.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:08:47] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Yes.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:08:48] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Something like that, where you subscribe to this marketplace and it can bolster what it is that you do already. So maybe you&#8217;ve got a 50% gig somewhere where you&#8217;re part-time and you need something to top that up. Or it may be that, come to rely on it, and it genuinely has been 100% of the income that you&#8217;ve accrued in particular years.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But how do you explain though, the fact that it has kind of just gone down? Because to me the obvious explanation, and it&#8217;s a fairly, you know, this is the kind of explanation which is being rolled out everywhere at the moment, is AI. Simply because it seems to coincide so perfectly with the advent of AI.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, I don&#8217;t know if you&#8217;ve got any thoughts beyond that, you know really the graph takes a massive turn in the year 2023, 2024, sometime there. And that seemed to be the moment at which, the kind of work that many of us have done in the past perhaps was getting done by AI. And if not getting done by AI, people at least had intuitions that there would be a future in which that work could be done by AI.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So that&#8217;s my first pass at this. Do you think there&#8217;s anything in that whole AI debate, whether or not it&#8217;s captured the kind of work that you may have got from Upwork?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:10:06] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> I think the answer is more complex than just blaming AI for everything that is happening in the marketplace right now. Definitely AI plays a role because it made developers more efficient in shipping code, shipping features and stuff that clients need.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s only reason because if you work with clients and stuff like that, you&#8217;ll know a client will pay you to do a work. They will not go themself, even if it&#8217;s with AI, do the work. So because of it, because AI it&#8217;s making developers build faster, the need for developers decreased. That&#8217;s one of the reasons behind it. If you want to blame AI for anything, it&#8217;s that it made developers faster.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:10:55] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Okay, that&#8217;s an interesting one. So the work in your experience anyway, the work is still there, it&#8217;s just the expectations of the clients maybe have gone up. So instead of wanting X amount of work, they may want 1.5X or 2X or whatever it is, or perhaps have it delivered in less time or something like that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:11:12] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> I think it&#8217;s a fair assumption. But also probably market, the way that the economy is right now, I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s in a good shape. And also one of the factors. Like, if you look at the number of layoffs, a lot of companies in the tech sector, &#8217;cause I think this was more affected than others, happened in the past three years.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:11:35] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah that&#8217;s true. Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:11:36] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> But AI most likely was an accelerator of that just because. And before 2022, a lot of companies needed engineers to support the demand for people staying at home. And after they didn&#8217;t need that demand, a lot of layoffs happened and AI came along. And just it was basically a perfect storm for massive layoffs &#8217;cause you had engineers that can deliver more work, and you didn&#8217;t need that many engineers because the demand was not there anymore.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:12:09] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> I suppose the other thing we should bring into question is the popularity of WordPress as an avenue to gain work. So for example, I don&#8217;t know, probably 2018 feels like a good place to point the needle. 2018, WordPress couldn&#8217;t be more popular.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:12:30] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:12:30] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> It was just really really super popular, everybody was talking about it. It was an exciting place to be. Lots and lots of work. Lots of companies getting in and investing in all sorts of bits of WordPress.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:12:41] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Mm-hmm.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:12:42] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Whether that was the community or getting plugins built, and shipping them and all of that kind of stuff.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:12:46] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Yes.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:12:47] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> And so I wonder if maybe that plays into it. You know these companies, who require websites to be built, or projects to be built. I wonder if they&#8217;ve cast their gaze elsewhere, and so that reservoir of work in the WordPress space on the Upwork side has dried up a little bit.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:13:03] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Yep definitely today there are more options than there were in 2018, like with the rise of Wix, Squarespace, other page builders. Definitely, made people that just wanted websites built, like presentation websites, simple stuff, not rely on WordPress. Because to be honest, WordPress out of the box is not that user-friendly for building a website as the other competitors are. Because you still, or at least before the full site editing was introduced. But even then, it&#8217;s a steeper learning curve than other page builders in a sense.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But where I see the deep is actually in newer projects rather than legacy ones, where companies that used WordPress to build their infrastructure, at least web infrastructure on. Because newer builds probably rely more on AI than on WordPress, and that&#8217;s kind of basically the, where the market shifted.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But again, like if companies used to build, because I see this in the clients that I serve. Not one of them that I worked with probably the past two to five years said like &#8220;Let&#8217;s remove WordPress from our web assets and just build it with AI,&#8221; because they understand the value of it, and also like technical debt and what actually maintaining software means so.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:14:23] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Do you think then there might be a realignment? Let&#8217;s say you&#8217;re a fairly large company and you&#8217;ve got WordPress website as you just described, you&#8217;re willing to let go of that. You&#8217;ve got so much stuff in there and legacy, and all of your staff know how to use it and what have you.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do you think though, perhaps we&#8217;re in an era though where the experience that somebody with 20 years building on top of WordPress could bring, would make them an absolutely invaluable asset? You know, you&#8217;ve got John Smith over there, he&#8217;s done 20 years of really hardcore WordPress development, and therefore he&#8217;s the person that we&#8217;re going to reach out to, or at least, if he comes through a platform like Upwork, that&#8217;s really credible.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I wonder if we&#8217;ve entered an era where, and I&#8217;m going to use the word vibe coding, we all know that&#8217;s fraught, and not really the right term to use, but I hope you get what I mean. I wonder if it&#8217;s now that people are questioning that, and thinking more like, do we really need John Smith with his 20 years of experience at $250 an hour? Or could we hire somebody with half the experience, a quarter of the experience, who charges a quarter of the rates? And if we factor in that it might take a little bit longer, but they&#8217;re going to use AI along the way. Do you know what I mean?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:15:39] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Yes.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:15:40] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> I&#8217;m just sort if that that kudos that your experience used to bring you. I wonder if that&#8217;s being brought a bit lower in people&#8217;s estimation of importance when they&#8217;re hiring.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:15:50] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> I think it might. But again like I think the answer is more complex than yes or no. And I think it all depends on what part, or role, the website or web assets that were built on WordPress is valued by the company.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So if it&#8217;s really important thing, probably they will not think about redoing it using AI. If it&#8217;s not that important, because I saw this, if it&#8217;s not that important it&#8217;s just probably a brochure website. It doesn&#8217;t do a lot. It doesn&#8217;t bring in. It&#8217;s just for visibility. Some of them they move to, again, like probably Framer or they just vibe code it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:16:29] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> So given all of that, and we&#8217;re pontificating and guessing why.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:16:33] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:16:34] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> And the truth is we don&#8217;t really know.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:16:36] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Exactly, yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:16:37] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> We&#8217;re putting our finger air and kind of trying to figure it out. However, given that we don&#8217;t know, what we do know is that this line chart that we can see, of yours has gone really in a very different direction. Flat lining for years, lots and lots of work available, and now kind of like nosedive, and then more recently fell off a cliff. And so does that mean that you are struggling to find work? Or does it just mean that you&#8217;ve pivoted and that work in a different way?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Does it mean that the Upwork platform, I don&#8217;t know, is no longer aligned to WordPress, or just doesn&#8217;t have WordPress as a priority? How can you explain it, and we&#8217;re talking about Upwork in particular.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:17:20] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Yes.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:17:21] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> How can you explain it happening in that way over on that platform specifically?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:17:26] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> One of the things that happened, it was probably saturation of a marketplace. That&#8217;s one.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And the other thing is that different competitors are on the market right now, outsource companies and more like, just to put it in perspective, most of my clients, probably 95%, are US-based clients, are not somewhere in UK or somewhere in Eastern Europe, or somewhere in other places that are still needing WordPress work done. And the type of projects that I&#8217;m looking for are not websites, basically. They are complex builds, plugin builds and kind of regular maintenance that people need. If they have legacy code base that they need maintenance, or adjusting rule or a code rebuild and stuff like that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So those kinds of projects are not there anymore. You can still find work in building websites on WordPress, or having small gigs. But the type of project that I used to get on Upwork, like I said, like pretty complex builds are not there anymore. And my read it&#8217;s like I said, it&#8217;s more complex. Probably it&#8217;s a market.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:18:40] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> So, there&#8217;s a particular kind of work that you used to get in Upwork which has dried up? And the, let me just understand that correctly. So just the website building side of it, did you say that was still okay? know if you&#8217;re just trying to hawk your service as a website builder, that&#8217;s fine. But the kind of &#8220;I need a plugin,&#8221; or, &#8220;I&#8217;d like a plugin adapted,&#8221; or what have you, that kid of stuff has gone away?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:19:06] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> So most stuff that are more developer focused are kind of dried up. At least in the US, because I&#8217;m not looking outside of US. So the US market shifted away basically from Upwork towards probably different competitors of them. Or using like temp agencies, or recruiters that pre-vet their developers before they are presented with a candidate they can have a discussion with.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:19:33] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Okay. So I&#8217;m thinking immediately of things like Codeable and things like that, where they&#8217;ve just got a slightly, maybe they&#8217;ve got a slightly different approach, I don&#8217;t know?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:19:40] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Yes, Toptal I think also they pre-vet their developers. And also like I said, temp agencies like Robert Half or, I don&#8217;t know, whatever tech systems that are here in the US. Basically you have a discussion with the recruiter before being presented to a potential project. It&#8217;s a different workflow basically. Because of it, it presents a better candidate than Upwork can present to a client.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:20:04] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Okay, so that&#8217;s interesting. So we&#8217;re apportioning some of the responsibility for this on the platform and the way the platform works and what have you?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:20:14] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Yes.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:20:15] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> And so, you know one of the things that we constantly talk about in the WordPress space is owning your own stuff. So for example, rather than posting stuff onto Facebook, write it on the WordPress blog, and then if Facebook goes out of business, or somehow decides that your account needs to be closed, you&#8217;ve still got access to it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:20:31] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Mm-hmm.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:20:31] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> And so I&#8217;m going to flip that into this conversation and say that sort of seems like potentially what&#8217;s happened here to you with Upwork. Presumably over the years, you&#8217;ve fostered a relationship with Upwork, and built up your kudos over there, and at some point presumably Upwork recognized that, &#8220;Oh, this Adrian guy, he&#8217;s really good. Look, he&#8217;s getting loads of work. Let&#8217;s push Adrian,&#8221; and so on and so forth.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do you have any regrets about putting the eggs into that one basket? Now that you&#8217;ve got to the point where the line has hit zero and there&#8217;s no work coming through? Do you wish that you&#8217;d have been on a variety of, maybe you have been, but do you wish that you&#8217;d been on a variety of different marketplaces? Or is it just, &#8220;Okay, this has happened. I didn&#8217;t think it was going to happen. Time to move on and try the different marketplaces&#8221;?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:21:19] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> I think not only me, but people usually are nearsighted, so they don&#8217;t think long-term. So whenever I started on Upwork, it was pretty easy to get clients because you don&#8217;t have to pay a fee, or you don&#8217;t have to go to events, or meet people in person, which for developers is pretty hard, at least for me. I&#8217;m a pretty introvert person. Going, mingling around with other people, it&#8217;s not something that I look forward to do.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:21:46] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah, I get it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:21:46] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Or it&#8217;s something that it&#8217;s in my skill set. Over the years, I got better and better because I&#8217;ve worked with clients and became more confident in my skills and stuff like that. But Upwork presented a easier way to get clients, and that&#8217;s kind of the appeal of those kind of marketplaces, because you don&#8217;t have to go outside of your comfort zone. You just have a keyboard, apply for a different bunch of gigs, and you can get accepted or not.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just to put it in perspective, probably half of the work that I&#8217;ve done was only through messaging back and forth, not even interacting with a real person, which for a developer is really appealing.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:22:28] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> No kidding, yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:22:29] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> It&#8217;s easier in a sense because, again, like it&#8217;s easier. But to be honest, the larger projects that I took on Upwork, or outside of Upwork needed that human touch. Like meeting with the client, talking about your skills, how you will approach the project and all of that. So they can gain confidence that you are competent enough to take their work.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So that&#8217;s kind of the reason why I got into it. If I have any regrets of it, of course, because if you leave that, you are basically handcuffed to that platform if you want to get more work. Because you don&#8217;t have any contacts outside, and also, it doesn&#8217;t produce any referrals.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So if a client is satisfied, the maximum that they can do with it, is just leave you a good review because they are so scattered around, they don&#8217;t have any other contacts that you can get recommendations from. So basically, for all the clients that I had, I didn&#8217;t get recommendations altogether. Probably just one in the past 10, 11 years.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:23:32] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Okay.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:23:33] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> That&#8217;s not good for long term, because you rely on constant getting new and new work from different clients. It&#8217;s not sustainable in a sense, because you have to focus yourself on delivering the work, but also getting the work, instead of building a network of clients that can supply that work for you, and recommend you to their friends and other of their peers.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:23:56] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah, I suppose a lesson to be learned, with the benefit of hindsight, is to spread yourself around, but also go looking for those kind of recommendations, and ensure that people endorse you and maybe even write you an email or something that you can put away somewhere and kind of have a bank of credible testimonials and so on and so forth.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, the piece itself on LinkedIn got quite a lot of commentary. I have to confess, I didn&#8217;t go reading all of the different comments that people had put in. But did you get a sense that the people that were commenting had had a similar experience from you? Or do you feel that you&#8217;re in some kind of unlucky, unhappy valley that nobody else over on Upwork is experiencing?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:24:37] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> No, I think I talked with agency owner, that most of their work comes off of Upwork, and they said they didn&#8217;t get any. Actually, this was the post that inspired me to write this. They didn&#8217;t get any work this month or in July from Upwork, even though they constantly applied. And one of the things that he said, it stood up was that, if they increase a bit their prices, they will not get any responses.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So basically, probably the market became more sensitive on spending. And because of the rise of AI, you can say that AI commoditize more development than it used to be. So it&#8217;s not just a me thing. I think it&#8217;s a general.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:25:24] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> So it is more broadly across the platform there. So fees you brought up, that&#8217;s interesting. I wonder if people are playing a bit of a wait and see game, and just keeping that money in their own bank account just to see how the landscape changes. Maybe this heralds a change in the industry which is going to stick for a while where the fees that people such as yourself can charge are going to be driven down, because less work seems to be available, so people are going to be more sensitive to the cost of it, and the competition will be greater and what have you.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:25:53] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:25:54] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> I guess only time will really tell. Yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:25:57] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> And also most likely is, the fact that AI commoditize programming in a sense. They are not the same number of WordPress projects that are started now. And they use, I don&#8217;t know, whatever AI is better on building with, which is like JavaScript-based stacks. And that&#8217;s probably the new directions where the new projects are going to rather than WordPress.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:26:25] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Okay, so just before we wrap it up then, let&#8217;s move to this point, which is that, no matter how much you inspect all of this, and out what&#8217;s going on, and the reasons behind it. I guess the bottom line is you&#8217;ve got to do something.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Maybe you&#8217;re perfectly all right, and you can take this hit from the Upwork platform and that&#8217;s absolutely fine. You&#8217;ve got other irons in the fire. But I&#8217;m guessing the next question&#8217;s pretty obvious, which is what are you doing to shore up this considerable loss of income? What&#8217;s the plan that you&#8217;ve got going forward? You may not have a fully hatched plan, in which case your best guess is fine. But I&#8217;m curious to know what your idea is to keep your irons in the fire and to keep the through put of your business up.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:27:07] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Just to put in perspective, my income didn&#8217;t decrease because of Upwork. So I&#8217;m pretty good, I&#8217;m in a pretty good shape. The thing is that I shifted away from relying on it, and trying to get, work through other avenues. And one of the other avenues that I am expanding on right now is basically LinkedIn, and it&#8217;s not.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:27:27] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> You&#8217;re suceeding.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:27:29] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> I&#8217;ve succeeded on getting viral, yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:27:33] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> That&#8217;s the first step, isn&#8217;t it, in a way?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:27:35] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Yeah, exactly, yeah. So I took three different approaches on LinkedIn. One was to post content, to see if I get any interaction with potential clients. I did get a couple of leads from that, and I get some gigs from it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The other one is actually talking directly with agency owners that build websites, but from time to time they have a need for either adjusting a legacy code base, or building something more complex that they don&#8217;t have in-house tools for. So I started building those relationship, and I do work with couple of different agencies that I they provide work for me from time to time.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And the third one is talking with recruiters from temp agencies. So I build couple of relationship with some of the big temp agencies, and whenever they have a project that it&#8217;s my lane, they contact me first basically, and I get to talk directly with the client, and they decide if they want to work with me or not.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:28:34] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> So in a sense, although there&#8217;s this cautionary tale of, gosh, this whole thing dried up, the bigger picture is that actually the whole thing didn&#8217;t dry up. There are different ways of getting the same work. In your case, you just had to be a bit creative for a few months, and start to talk in different ways to different people.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:28:51] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Yeah, and also another thing is that I needed to start thinking a bit more long term rather than one-off projects, not one-off projects, but just thinking that one source of leads will basically provide whatever I need every month budget-wise.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also this is how business used to work. Like you went, you interacted with a person, and they give you a business or not. Not chatting with a person on the other end of the world, and they give you work.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So basically, fostering those relationships are more beneficial, and to be honest, they pay better than clients on Upwork. And you get into the cycle of recommendation, and you don&#8217;t, it&#8217;s less work for you to get clients than it is on Upwork, but it takes longer to build those relationships.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:29:46] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Right. And that&#8217;s a really interesting observation, isn&#8217;t it? Because essentially the advice that you&#8217;re giving there is as old as the hills really, isn&#8217;t it? You could have had that same marketing advice in like 1930s.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:29:56] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Exactly.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:29:57] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Which is, go out, find people who you can work with, build up a longstanding credible relationship with them, and then the next time they need a bit of work, which hopefully they will, you&#8217;re going to be the first person who they&#8217;re going to call.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But it&#8217;s curious how we&#8217;ve all fallen into, and I&#8217;m just doing air quotes, &#8220;the trap&#8221; of having these platforms around you know, like Upwork. It just allows you to very easily get work here, there, and everywhere. And it&#8217;s only at the point when that starts to dry up for all the reasons that we discussed that you realise, okay, gotta pivot a little bit. But it&#8217;s great to hear that in effect, it&#8217;s had no impact on your bottom line. It&#8217;s just meant that you&#8217;ve had to pivot, do things slightly differently, go outside, get out of the office and go and interact with people in the real world.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:30:46] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> And again, like the projects that I was able to get outside of Upwork are for better clients that I did on Upwork. It&#8217;s not that I didn&#8217;t work on interesting projects on Upwork. It&#8217;s that the opportunities that can lead after the work is completed for those clients are bigger than the opportunities that you get from working on, for clients on Upwork.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:31:08] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Oh, I see. Okay, so the long tail of work, you know, let&#8217;s say that you land a client and they build website in the year 2026, maybe they&#8217;ll need an upgrade in 2028, and they&#8217;ll need some modification in 2027 that you&#8217;re the person to do it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yeah, whereas Upwork is more here today, gone tomorrow. Disposable thing, you finish it, move on, another thing, another thing. And that&#8217;s worked for years, but maybe that system, certainly for you at least anyway, is drying up and you&#8217;re trying out other things, which I hope you are successful with. I guess that&#8217;s the perfect place to, to call it a day.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:31:40] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Mm-hmm.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:31:41] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Honestly Adrian, all the best of luck. I know that when you put that post out, it must have been, it&#8217;s hard to write that kind of stuff, isn&#8217;t it? Because it demonstrates that in some way you&#8217;ve had to modify things and that things have been a struggle. But it&#8217;s nice to hear that you seem to have got a handle on it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:31:58] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Yes.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:31:58] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> And I would wish you the best for the future.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:32:00] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Thank you.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:32:00] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> If anybody wanted to reach out to you, because we have a fairly large audience, and I wouldn&#8217;t be surprised if one or two people out there were going through something very similar, where&#8217;s the best place to reach out to you? I can obviously link to your post on LinkedIn.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:32:14] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Yes.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:32:14] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> And people can click on the link and contact you via that. But is there any place you hang out online?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:32:18] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Yeah, mostly LinkedIn. And if you want to check my website out, it&#8217;s CustomWP.io. That&#8217;s kind of my avenues of contacting me and that&#8217;s about it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:32:28] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Okay. I will put that into the show notes. So if, dear listener, you&#8217;re listening to this, head to the episode with Adrian in it. Probably by the time you listen to this it&#8217;ll be one of the first two bits and pieces on the WPTavern.com website. Go and click into the show notes and all of the links will be buried somewhere in there.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, Adrian Sticea, thank you so much for chatting to me today. Good luck with the future.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:32:50] <strong>Adrian Sticea:</strong> Thank you.</p>\n</div></details>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the podcast today we have Adrian Sticea.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Adrian has been working in the WordPress space since 2013, starting out as a developer for small companies, then moving into freelancing, agency roles in the US, major projects at IBM, a stint at StellarWP, and extensive work with enterprise-level clients. Most recently, Adrians post on LinkedIn about the dramatic drop-off in WordPress work through the Upwork platform went viral, sparking many conversations and comments.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I suspect that many WordPress professionals listening have seen shifts in their freelance workloads and may be wondering whats behind these changes, and Adrian is here to share his own data-driven account. He talks about his experience using Upwork as a primary source of project leads, how, for years, it was a reliable fountain of work, but recently, the flow has all but dried up.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We dive into the possible causes. The impact of AI making developers more efficient (and thus reducing hiring demand), changes in the broader economy, increasing competition from rival platforms, and how the nature of WordPress work itself is changing. Adrian mentions the difference between simple website builds, which are still in demand on Upwork, and complex plugin or enterprise projects, which he thinks might have migrated elsewhere.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We also talk about diversification, whether its a mistake to rely on just one marketplace for freelance work, and the importance of building real relationships, collecting testimonials, and seeking recommendations. Adrian shares how hes pivoted, leveraging LinkedIn for networking, connecting directly with agencies, and building partnerships with recruiters and temp agencies.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If youve felt your freelance pipeline shrink, are curious where the most interesting WordPress work has gone, or want to hear how other professionals are adapting to marketplace shifts, this episode is for you.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Useful links</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7488960772035833856/\">Adrian&#8217;s post on LinkedIn</a></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://customwp.io\">CustomWP</a></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://www.upwork.com\">Upwork</a></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://www.toptal.com\">Toptal</a></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://www.codeable.io\">Codeable</a></p>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Wed, 19 Aug 2026 13:00:00 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:14:\"Nathan Wrigley\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:26;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:21:\"\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:17:\"Matt: Surprise DM\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:23:\"https://ma.tt/?p=154202\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:34:\"https://ma.tt/2026/08/surprise-dm/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:1958:\"<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When I saw the Slack notification preview, &#8220;Matt, I&#8217;m literally crying right now,&#8221; I must admit my first reaction was &#8220;Oh no, what happened&#8230;&#8221;</p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Matt, I&#8217;m literally crying right now.

Update now! <img alt=\"⚠\" class=\"wp-smiley\" src=\"https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/26a0.png\" style=\"height: 1em;\" /></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You might have noticed, that the <a href=\"https://gutenbergtimes.com/\">Gutenberg Times</a> website has a new theme. It&#8217;s built on top of the Twenty Twenty-Five default theme. I started working on it last year, but was pulled away by other priorities. Then AI Enablement weeks arrived and I started to use all kinds of different AI tools for design and WordPress. None of them were really good at block themes at first. Then <strong><a href=\"https://telex.automattic.ai/\">Telex</a></strong> got me close and I used it for my <a href=\"https://github.com/bph/workshop\">Block theme workshop</a>. As the final stack I used <a href=\"https://developer.wordpress.com/studio/\">WordPress Studio with the new AI Agent (Beta)</a> and Claude. Both competently used theme.json and block markup for patterns, template and template parts. </p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46827\" height=\"838\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/gutenbergtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/Screenshot-2026-08-13-at-16.09.54.png?resize=1024%2C838&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The biggest hurdle, and that&#8217;s why it took multiple trials, was that the podcast data wasn&#8217;t block-theme ready so I had to build a plugin that handles all the block bindings and assembles them into templates. The <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/gt-podcast-bb/\">plugin is in the WordPress repository</a> (still beta), if you are interested. During the process I used Claude and <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/agent-skills/tree/trunk/skills\">WordPress Agent skills</a>. Between November 2025 and August 2026 the quality of Claude&#8217;s work has improved considerably and it produced much more robust code. The deployment to GitHub and WordPress repository was a breeze. Take a look at the <a href=\"https://gutenbergtimes.com/podcast/\">new podcast page</a>.

Nine items are already done and several more have PRs in progress, so if one of these papercuts has been bugging you, now&#8217;s the time to test or comment.</p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" />\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Jeff Paul</strong> opend the <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/08/12/wordpress-7-2-call-for-volunteers/\"><strong>call for volunteers for WordPress 7.2</strong></a> release squad. The release is scheduled for December 9th, 2026. That&#8217;s of course, still preliminary. </p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"0-p\">Plugins, Themes, and Tools for #nocode site builders and owners</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Elliott Richmond</strong> pulled <strong><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xoffY_YYhlo\">fourteen WordPress 7.1 features from the Source of Truth</a> </strong>and tested every one hands-on against the release candidate for his latest video — no speculation, no reciting release notes. You&#8217;ll see responsive styling controls, custom breakpoints in theme.json, hover, focus and active states, the new Icon, Tabs and Playlist blocks, the media editor modal and the mark-as-decorative accessibility option. Thirteen earn a genuine thumbs up; the one mixed verdict only asks you to think backwards for a bit.</p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" />\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Image processing moves from your server to the browser in WordPress 7.1, and <strong>Carlo Daniele&#8217;s</strong> rundown of <a href=\"https://kinsta.com/blog/wordpress-7-1/\">client-side media processing, design tools, and the Abilities API</a> for Kinsta explains what that shift means: libvips compiled to WebAssembly produces images roughly 15% smaller while cutting server CPU and RAM. He also covers rich-text Notes with @mentions, the Playlist and Tabs blocks, four new Abilities API lifecycle filters, and the design tokens plugin developers can use to style admin screens.</p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" />\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do custom field builders need to worry about WordPress 7.1? <strong>Lua Nguyen</strong> answers for the Meta Box community with a look at <strong><a href=\"https://metabox.io/wordpress-7-1/\">what&#8217;s new and how it affects Meta Box users</a>. </strong>The always-iframed editor is the big one — Meta Box blocks already run on Block API v3 with modal-based editing, so you can upgrade without changes. Client-side media processing covers the Image fields automatically, and editable blocks inside Custom HTML give developers finer control over what clients may touch.</p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" />\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://developer.woocommerce.com/2026/08/10/woocommerce-11-0-1/\"><strong>WooCommerce 11.0.1</strong></a> arrived as <strong>a security and compatibility dot release,</strong> and <strong>Brian Coords</strong> lists what&#8217;s inside: a stronger, salted hashing scheme for guest session cookies, sanitized notices in Cart and Checkout blocks, capability checks on image matching, onboarding and Marketplace endpoints — plus faster logging that cuts checkout latency on stores with large log backlogs. It also readies the Orders list for WordPress 7.1&#8217;s changed list-table markup, so update your stores before August 19.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-word-press-6-0-1-and-6-1-scheduled\">Theme Development for Full Site Editing and Blocks</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your hero area looks gorgeous on desktop and clunky on a phone — a scenario <strong>Eric Karkovack </strong>solves in his walkthrough on <a href=\"https://speckyboy.com/how-to-hide-wordpress-blocks-based-on-device/\"><strong>how to hide WordPress blocks based on device</strong></a>. He builds two versions of the hero, then uses the Block Visibility controls from WordPress 7.0 to hide one on mobile and the other on desktop and tablet — no plugin, no custom CSS. A neat companion piece to the responsive block styles arriving in 7.1.</p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" />\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress uses &#8220;patterns&#8221; for two related but different things, and <strong>Gina Lucia</strong> sorts them out in her guide to <strong><a href=\"https://olliewp.com/wordpress-patterns-vs-reusable-blocks/\">WordPress patterns vs reusable blocks</a> </strong>— the latter renamed synced patterns back in WordPress 6.3. Regular patterns become independent copies once inserted; synced patterns stay connected, so one edit updates every instance, with partially synced overrides for things like team member cards. She also draws the line between patterns and templates and shows you how to save your own.</p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" />\n\n\n<div class=\"ng-block-7aa990a3e25807d1 wp-block-newsletterglue-container ng-block\" style=\"color: #666666;\" width=\"100%\"><div><div><div class=\"ng-block-vs ng-block-vs-1\" colspan=\"3\" height=\"0\" style=\"height: 0px;\"></div></div><div><div class=\"ng-block-hs ng-block-hs-1\" height=\"0\" style=\"width: 0px;\"></div><div align=\"none\" class=\"ng-block-td\" style=\"font-size: 16px; font-family: Helvetica; line-height: 1.6; font-weight: normal; padding-top: 20px; padding-bottom: 20px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; text-align: none; color: #666666; background-color: #fdfcea; border-radius: 12px;\"><div class=\"ng-block-8ebe15b7e038de37 wp-block-newsletterglue-text ng-block\" style=\"color: #666666;\" width=\"100%\"><div><div><div align=\"none\" class=\"ng-block-td\" style=\"font-size: 16px; font-family: Helvetica; line-height: 1.6; font-weight: normal; padding-top: 8px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px; text-align: none; color: #666666;\"><p><strong> <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/references/keeping-up-with-gutenberg-index/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">&#8220;Keeping up with Gutenberg &#8211; Index 2026&#8221;</a> </strong><br />A chronological list of the WordPress Make Blog posts from various teams involved in Gutenberg development: Design, Theme Review Team, Core Editor, Core JS, Core CSS, Test, and Meta team from Jan. 2024 on.

Along the way you&#8217;ll learn what actually matters: attributes in block.json, the split between edit.js and save.js, RichText for inline editing, and InspectorControls for sidebar settings.

Each extension point comes with a working code example and the trade-offs he&#8217;d weigh before reaching for it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"></p>\n\n\n<div class=\"ng-block-acb014081840ca03 wp-block-newsletterglue-container ng-block\" style=\"color: #666666;\" width=\"100%\"><div><div><div class=\"ng-block-vs ng-block-vs-1\" colspan=\"3\" height=\"25\" style=\"height: 25px;\"></div></div><div><div class=\"ng-block-hs ng-block-hs-1\" height=\"25\" style=\"width: 25px;\"></div><div align=\"none\" class=\"ng-block-td\" style=\"font-size: 16px; font-family: Helvetica; line-height: 1.6; font-weight: normal; padding-top: 20px; padding-bottom: 20px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; text-align: none; color: #666666; background-color: #f8f8f8; border-radius: 8px;\"><div class=\"ng-block-b90738446d9f09b6 wp-block-newsletterglue-text ng-block\" style=\"color: #666666;\" width=\"100%\"><div><div><div align=\"none\" class=\"ng-block-td\" style=\"font-size: 16px; font-family: Helvetica; line-height: 1.6; font-weight: normal; padding-top: 8px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px; text-align: none; color: #666666;\"><p><strong><a href=\"https://gutenbergtimes.com/need-a-zip-from-master/\">Need a plugin .zip from Gutenberg&#8217;s master branch?</a></strong><br />Gutenberg Times provides daily build for testing and review.</p></div></div></div></div>\n\n<div class=\"ng-block-4a1b7ef5538b794e wp-block-newsletterglue-image ng-block size-full is-resized\" width=\"100%\"><div><div><div align=\"center\" class=\"ng-block-td\" style=\"padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px;\"><a href=\"https://playground.wordpress.net/?blueprint-url=https://gutenbergtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/playnightly.json\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-42874 ng-image\" height=\"45\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/gutenbergtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/Screenshot-2025-11-15-at-12.06.44.png?resize=196%2C45&#038;ssl=1\" style=\"border-style: none; border-color: transparent;\" width=\"196\" /></a></div></div></div></div>\n\n<div class=\"ng-block-f16b080ee98c121c wp-block-newsletterglue-text ng-block\" style=\"color: #666666;\" width=\"100%\"><div><div><div align=\"none\" class=\"ng-block-td\" style=\"font-size: 16px; font-family: Helvetica; line-height: 1.6; font-weight: normal; padding-top: 8px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px; text-align: none; color: #666666;\"><p>Now also available via <a href=\"https://playground.wordpress.net/?blueprint-url=https://gutenbergtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/playnightly.json\">WordPress Playground</a>.

This new <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/browser-extension\">open source extension</a> lets logged-in site users easily hide the admin bar while keeping its most helpful shortcuts in the browser toolbar, provides quick access to all of your WordPress sites, and adds helpful tools for developers and content creators.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img alt=\"Decorative screenshot of the new WordPress Browser Extension\" class=\"wp-image-21386\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/Slide-16_9-9-scaled.png?resize=2560%2C1440&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"2560\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By default, the admin bar sits at the top of every page you view while signed in to WordPress, keeping the dashboard, the editor, and your profile within reach. That convenience carries a cost: the bar occupies the viewport, so the page on screen is never quite the page a visitor sees. On sites doing more interesting things with the viewport, such as sticky headers or scroll-driven effects, it can introduce artifacts that send you hunting for a bug that is not there. Further, the admin bar can sometimes grow unwieldy as plugins add their own features and shortcuts to it. Switching it off in your profile settings trades one problem for another, because the shortcuts leave with it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That problem was the spark for the creation of the WordPress Browser Extension. The extension hides the admin bar on the sites you choose, or everywhere by default, and keeps the most commonly used shortcuts one click away. Bringing the full bar back takes two clicks and no trip to the dashboard. What began as a fix for that one tradeoff grew into something broader: a way to recognize WordPress wherever you find it on the web, to jump into your own sites from anywhere, and to carry a small set of tools for testing and review.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img alt=\"Hide and show the WordPress admin bar from the new extension menu.\" class=\"wp-image-21387\" height=\"719\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/wordpress-browser-extension.gif?resize=1280%2C719&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1280\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As you browse, the toolbar icon shows whether the current site runs WordPress and whether you are signed in, without being obtrusive. On a site you manage, opening the extension reveals shortcuts to the dashboard or to the editor for the exact post, page, taxonomy, or template in view, including template-backed pages that open in the Site Editor on block themes. A locally stored launcher remembers the sites you sign in to, so they stay available even when you are somewhere else entirely.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A few tools also turn out to be a better fit for the browser than for a WordPress plugin. The extension can draw block boundaries over the rendered page, open a phone-sized preview window, reload with cache busting, or clear cookies and local storage for the site you are on. Some of that is hard to do from inside a site, and none of it requires a plugin or any other software installation, so the same tools are available on every WordPress site you visit.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img alt=\"A screenshot of WordCamp.org in Safari with the WordPress Browser Extension open and the developer tools expanded.\" class=\"wp-image-21364\" height=\"739\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/wordpress.org/news/files/2026/08/WP-Browser-Extension-Safari-Block-Outlines.png?resize=1024%2C739&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All of this happens on your device. The extension reads the page in front of it to work out what it is looking at, and when it needs more than the page can tell it, it asks the site. Your preferences, and the list of sites you sign in to, stay in your browser.

My name is Nathan Wrigley.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jukebox is a podcast which is dedicated to all things WordPress. The people, the events, the plugins, the blocks, the themes, and in this case, what draws people into the work of open source projects.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;d like to subscribe to the podcast, you can do that by searching for WP Tavern in your podcast player of choice, or by going to wptavern.com/feed/podcast, and you can copy that URL into most podcast players.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have a topic that you&#8217;d like us to feature on the podcast, I&#8217;m keen to hear from you and hopefully get you, or your idea, featured on the show. Head to wptavern.com/contact/jukebox and use the form there.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So on the podcast today, we have Amy Kamala.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amy&#8217;s journey into tech is anything but conventional, starting with a master of fine arts from UCLA, and a passion for art that eventually bled into, and was overtaken by technology. Since 2018, she&#8217;s been an active contributor to WordPress, serving multiple teams such as the Hosting and Core Teams.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her career zigzags through key roles at DreamHost, InMotion Hosting, Pantheon, Canopy Studios, and local government. Picking up everything from technical support and web development, to managing teams of designers and DevOps staff. Along the way, Amy has organised WordCamps, led teams, and is currently being sponsored by Elementor for her open source work.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today&#8217;s conversation gets into the chaotic, creative, overlap between art and tech and how those different mindsets can feed one another, especially in the world of WordPress. We talk about the blend of creative and logical thinking needed in web development and why skills like user experience, curiosity, and even willingness to fail publicly can set you apart.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We then turn to contribution. What draws people to volunteer in an open source community? What Amy gets out of participating far beyond her paid hours, and the messy journey from being an eager helper to an essential part of the team.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She explains the unique feeling of the WordPress community, the importance of being welcoming to new contributors, and why being outgoing and not afraid to ask questions can be your biggest asset.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;ve ever wondered about the blurred lines between arts and code, why people throw themselves into volunteer work in the WordPress ecosystem, or what&#8217;s really at the heart of this global community, this episode is for you.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re interested in finding out more, you can find all of the links in the show notes by heading to wptavern.com/podcast, where you&#8217;ll find all the other episodes as well.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so without further delay, I bring you Amy Kamala.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am joined on the podcast by Amy Kamala. Hello, Amy.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:03:22] <strong>Amy:</strong> Hello. Thank you for having me.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:03:24] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> You&#8217;re very welcome. Amy was introduced to me by Jonathan Desrosiers, who&#8217;s been on this podcast many, many times before. I don&#8217;t exactly recall the nature of that introduction, but I&#8217;m very glad to have you on the podcast today. The intention really is to have a broad, wide-ranging, no-holds-barred conversation, I think about contribution, why people do it, and the community in general. So we&#8217;ll see where it takes us.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amy, firstly, thank you for joining us, and I wonder if you wouldn&#8217;t mind just telling the listeners a little bit about yourself. Honestly, you can go in any direction you like with that. Maybe if you, I don&#8217;t know, bind it to WordPress or contribution or whatever it may be, that would be good.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:03:59] <strong>Amy:</strong> Thank you too. Thank you so much for having me. I&#8217;m happy to be here. So I&#8217;m from Venice Beach, California, and I&#8217;m actually an artist and my background is in art. I have a Master of Fine Arts degree from UCLA. But a lot of my artwork was supported by technology, and at some point, technology crossed over, took over, and now my technology is supported by artwork.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;ve been contributing to WordPress since 2018. In 2019, I became a team rep for the hosting team, and I am now on my sixth non-consecutive year as a team rep. And this year I&#8217;m also a Core team rep, which has been really fun and I love working with both teams.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I started working in the tech industry in 2015 in social support for web host, DreamHost. I was there for about five years, a little bit less than five years. I worked my way up from social support to technical support to live chat, and then helped form a specialised WordPress support team. And I was taking escalations, training team members, devising and documenting team processes. And while I was there, I helped strategise and implement new WordPress products which made revenue in beta, and that was really fun. I got to work directly with the CEO and the VP of product, and I learned a lot doing that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then I left, and I became a tech lead at a web dev agency, and then the pandemic hit, and we all know how that went. And then in 2020, I started working for InMotion Hosting as their web development manager. I was responsible for over 23 online corporate assets, five web servers, multiple Jira projects, and also the supporting infrastructure, the DevOps pipeline, GitLab, so on and so forth. And I loved that. It&#8217;s actually, that was one of the best jobs I&#8217;ve ever had. They&#8217;re a great company. It was amazing working there. I had an amazing boss. Totally great. I still have friends from there, and from DreamHost for that matter. And DreamHost was also great. I have a special love in my heart for DreamHost. I&#8217;ve known those guys for a really long time.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And then I was recruited by Pantheon to be a solutions architect for their professional support team. That didn&#8217;t work out for me as I had hoped, and I left a little bit less than a year later and started being a web developer for my local government. Again, I was recruited. I didn&#8217;t pursue these jobs. I may have gone in a different direction if I had. And that was a year-long contract. It ended in the end of 2023, and I&#8217;ve actually just been freelancing ever since then. I have a contract with a company called Swishtech. They&#8217;re not a WordPress company. They&#8217;re not even a web development company. They are an AutoCAD. They train and sell AutoCAD software. And they&#8217;re great too. And I also am sponsored by Elementor to contribute to the WordPress open source project.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:06:58] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Gosh, you really have done the whole lot, haven&#8217;t you? There&#8217;s just almost no stone that you haven&#8217;t turned over and looked at the underside of. That really is a fascinating story, yeah.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:07:09] <strong>Amy:</strong> Thank you. There is, I considered completely abandoning both of those careers, art and tech and going into psychology and becoming a therapist at some point recently over the past few years.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:07:22] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Right, okay. Well I could definitely talk about that. There&#8217;s somebody very close to me in my family who does that kind of work.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Can I ask, this is a complete segue, the fact that you pursued art at such a high level tells me that there must be some yearning inside of you for that side of life, you know, the artistic side, the creative side and what have you. I&#8217;m wondering if there&#8217;s any bit of technology that satisfies that, or do you find that you have to go back to the art to sate that craving? Or are there creative pockets inside of tech that allow you to sate that sort of desire to be creative?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:08:00] <strong>Amy:</strong> So that&#8217;s a great question and very insightful of you. Yes, so in 2015 when I started working for DreamHost, I&#8217;ve known the founders and some of the managers of DreamHost since like 1999-ish. That&#8217;s a different story, but I had just finished grad school and I was kind of in a bad living situation and I just needed a job, any job. I didn&#8217;t care what job. And so I hit them up and I found like a entry-level social support, entry-level job that I qualified for. It&#8217;s pretty easy to qualify for that. Hit them up and said, &#8220;Will you recommend me for this job at your company?&#8221; And of course they did. I still went through the interview process and like did typing tests and so on and so forth. But that&#8217;s how I ended up.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So it was kind of just circumstantial that I started working in tech. And then once I was there, I tend to get really hyper-focused, and I really hyper-focused on my work at DreamHost on moving up and learning technical things. I&#8217;ve always kind of had an aspect of technical. When I was doing art, strictly art, just art, I was still doing technical things. In undergrad I got into, well, so I started, I learned HTML when I was like 18 years old in the year 2000. I was an HTML programmer. It was one of my first jobs. The other job, my first job was working at Venice Beach at one of the stores down there. But like first real job, HTML programmer for a web development agency and graphic design.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And then I went to undergrad and I did a lot of fine art, sculpture, video installations. And working with video is pretty technical. You&#8217;re using computers. I also learned Photoshop at Otis where I went to undergrad. I still use it. It&#8217;s like one of my primary mediums for making art. But working with video is pretty technical. You&#8217;re doing editing, you&#8217;re working on a computer, there&#8217;s definitely a technical aspect to it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And I also, I had a boyfriend at the time who was doing web development, and so I started learning PHP and Perl. And I started using PHP as a tool to make my animations. I was making little animations at the time, and video art interactive. So I did some installations that utilised interactive elements that actually used web technology.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then I was working at an animation studio on a Red Hat box. So I had to, I learned Linux, and I also was introduced to Avid which is a high-end, professional video editing software or film editing software. And then I was working at a film post-production facility where I was using DOS, which is Command Line. And also I was working in the tape room transferring tape formats from one to the other. It was pretty technical. And I was also helping their web team manage the online video assets, uploading and downloading with FTP and so on and so forth. So there&#8217;s always been an element of tech integrated in my art.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And to answer your question, working in tech primarily, there&#8217;s definitely an element of art that supports, that has supported my career in tech. UI/UX design and graphic design rely on the same fundamentals as fine art. Composition, colour, so on and so forth. And so my training there, and I have some, I don&#8217;t like doing graphic design. I, like, actually really hate it, but I do have some professional experience doing it. And that led me to be able to lead teams of designers and developers. At InMotion Hosting, I had five developers and three UI/UX designers on my team, who I was the manager of.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So it wasn&#8217;t just development that I was doing there. It was also user experience, very user experience-focused. And so my experience with art has definitely supported my experience with tech and vice versa.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, there&#8217;s definitely a yearning that, you know, I wanted to do, I wanted to make weird, cute, maybe a little dark experimental films. And I haven&#8217;t been doing that for the past 10 years or so.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:11:54] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> I always think that the motto for WordPress is code is poetry. I think if you peel back the curtain on that just a little bit, obviously, it may be that you&#8217;re just trying to create a website, but there are creative ways of doing that. But also code code really does unlock something, but still it&#8217;s quite a logical thing. And I&#8217;ve always found those two things difficult to overlap. The sort of Venn diagram of logic meets creativity that, I don&#8217;t know how well they fit together. But it sounds from what you&#8217;re saying that you feel that the two things have married well in your career.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They&#8217;ve enabled you to do things because, I don&#8217;t know, maybe it&#8217;s thinking outside of the box or something like that. Your capacity to think differently to other people. But I&#8217;ve always found that curious. I&#8217;ve never had a particularly artistic grain of anything in me. I&#8217;m much more logical than I am creative. So I&#8217;ve always sort of struggled to see how those two things marry up.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:12:49] <strong>Amy:</strong> Oh, well, you know, that&#8217;s actually something that I&#8217;ve thought about a lot. And the too long, didn&#8217;t read, answer for me about that is, so art is experiential. It&#8217;s not about the object necessarily. It&#8217;s not even about your skills. It&#8217;s about creating an experience. The viewer, relationship between the viewer and the item that they&#8217;re looking at. Books, movies, music, all of that, it&#8217;s experiential. It creates an experience. And so do websites, so does software, so does using the software.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the reasons that Apple is so successful is because of the user experience, because they focus on it being an easy, intuitive, fast experience to use their products. And so when you think about it in terms of user experience, and in terms of just human experience, there&#8217;s a lot of crossover.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:13:41] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> When you worked at some of those companies that you mentioned, I presume that you were surrounded by lots and lots of people, in an office environment. So this question, I hope it lands correctly. I&#8217;m certainly not trying to put anybody in a box or stereotype anybody. But did there tend to be a fairly interesting split between the kind of character that you would find on the, I don&#8217;t know, making the website look nice, let&#8217;s say. You know, putting the pixels on the page, the design and what have you, and then the people who are writing the code in order to make those designs a reality.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I just wonder what, if there&#8217;s an aisle down the middle of those two camps where, okay, the artistic people, they&#8217;re all over there, look at them being artistic, and over there, there&#8217;s all the coders, look at them crouched over their computers being logical. I don&#8217;t know if there&#8217;s a there there, but I&#8217;ve always found that curious too.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:14:25] <strong>Amy:</strong> Well, it crosses over in web development. A lot of web developers are doing, as a web developer, you have to do CSS, SAAS, you have to style the front end. If you&#8217;re on a, you know, a big professional team, you&#8217;re going to have designers, and then you can just pull the styles from software. But if you&#8217;re on a smaller team, which, you know, the majority of people end up working at some point on very small teams or even, like, a one-person team, you do it. And so there&#8217;s quite a bit of crossover in web development.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In software development, you&#8217;re probably always going to have a bigger team, and so you&#8217;re going to need designers. But web development, there&#8217;s always web developers that like have a history in graphic design, have a history in UI/UX design that ended up also coding. And those designers don&#8217;t necessarily tend to be really great at like PHP and JavaScript, but they do tend to be phenomenal at CSS.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:15:18] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Oh, interesting. Yeah, okay. Thank you. I took us on a total detour there. That was really not intentional, but it was kind of fun peeling back the curtain a little bit there.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:15:27] <strong>Amy:</strong> Well as a team lead, it really helps to know people&#8217;s strengths and talents, that you&#8217;re likely to have developers who are more logical and who, like, they can bang out some code. It&#8217;s going to function. It&#8217;s probably going to have all of the crosses and the dots and the so forth. But then you also have developers who are more visual, but they just kind of like ended up working in development. And that&#8217;s who you would want to tap to make something look really nice but still be functional.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:15:52] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yes. It&#8217;s a rare and wonderful thing when you encounter that character who can do all of it. I have a friend, a very dear friend who, it doesn&#8217;t matter what task you put in front of him, he just excels at all of it immediately. And it&#8217;s rare, you know, because there is this sort of, most poeple get into a niche, don&#8217;t they, and they become good at a particular thing. And as the world requires us more and more to be specialised in one thing or another thing, we do tend to lean into, I don&#8217;t know, I&#8217;m a CSS person, or I&#8217;m a PHP person, or I&#8217;m into JavaScript, graphic design or whatever it may be. And when you encounter that one character that can do literally all of it, I&#8217;m a bit in awe, frankly. Quite a lot of my jealous genes kick in and.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:16:31] <strong>Amy:</strong> That&#8217;s very interesting. I am the one character, you know, I&#8217;ve had my hands in, DevOps, system administration, but also design, art, user experience, accessibility, so on and so forth, which has served my career, you know, being a web development manager, it was absolutely necessary to have that range of skill set. But I will say that I don&#8217;t specialise in any of those things. I&#8217;m not like a, you know, JavaScript specialist or anything like that. I&#8217;m not the SMC on all of those technologies, but have a good umbrella overview that allows like cross-functionality.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I wouldn&#8217;t mind specialising in something like that, but I just haven&#8217;t really found a niche. I kind of ended up in leadership roles because I&#8217;m outgoing and chatty. And so that reads as leadership ability. And I&#8217;m good at organising. So those are some leadership skills. And so I kind of ended up, but I ended up in leadership roles before I had mastered anything other than like drawing and maybe video editing. And so in a way that&#8217;s been really good and it&#8217;s led me on this career path, and also in a way it&#8217;s been really bad because I&#8217;ve not been able to focus on any specific skills to excel in those. I guess I&#8217;ve excelled in team management.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:17:50] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> It sounds like you&#8217;ve not done too badly. It also sounds from, I mean I&#8217;m reading between the lines here, and forgive me if I&#8217;ve misconstrued what you were saying. It also sounds like from the go, since you finished your arts program, it sounds like you&#8217;ve been quite intentional. You know, when opportunities have arisen, the way you&#8217;ve described it makes me feel that you can sense an opportunity and you grasp it with both hands, and you&#8217;re willing to learn something which maybe last week you&#8217;d never heard of, but this week, okay, that&#8217;s a thing. Let&#8217;s give that a go. Again, forgive me if I&#8217;ve got that wrong, but it sounds like you&#8217;re quite a force of nature. Let&#8217;s go with that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:18:23] <strong>Amy:</strong> Thank you. That&#8217;s correct. I love learning new things, new skills. I&#8217;m never like, well, I&#8217;m only going to focus, that&#8217;s part of it too. It&#8217;s a conscious choice to not focus on just one thing. I did at one point kind of like sit down and say to myself, we have to make a decision, art or coding? And I actually determined that I should just stick with tech, the technical end of things because that makes more money than art, even like with a full-time job.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:18:53] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yes. It is difficult, isn&#8217;t it, to become an artist in whatever field of art that may be. I think the chances of you making that work from an economic point of view are much more unlikely than they are.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:19:06] <strong>Amy:</strong> Well, I could tell you as a fine artist, I have made $0.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:19:10] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Right. Okay. Well there you go. That puts it into stark relief. That gives us some idea.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It also sounds from what you&#8217;re doing that you&#8217;re on more of a journey than you are arriving at a destination. And what I mean by that is, it feels like maybe if I chatted to you in a decade&#8217;s time, who knows where you&#8217;re going to be. It&#8217;s more of a, this is where I am now. Tomorrow might present something entirely different. Again, I could have that wrong.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:19:32] <strong>Amy:</strong> No, I think that&#8217;s actually totally correct. I&#8217;ve kind of, I haven&#8217;t really been that intentional with my direction. I tried to be when I, you know, made a decision, art versus tech, to go with tech. Secondary decision, I had already decided to go with art and then, you know, switch careers. But at this point I don&#8217;t have, like I don&#8217;t dream to be a product manager or dream to be, you know, a coder or a specific thing, a software engineer.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;m not quite sure to be honest. I do know that I love working in the tech industry, that I love working on teams, I love working on software, I love collaborating and focusing on user experience. And I even, I really actually, I loved being in technical support. Being social and chatty is both a blessing and a curse because my entire career exists because I&#8217;m outgoing and social and chatty, and I just randomly message people and start talking to them or randomly walk up to people. You know, and that&#8217;s how I ended up in all of it pretty much, and even working on releases.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And that&#8217;s also helped me to be able to do those roles because I will randomly message anyone and be like, hi, blah, blah, blah. So that really works to my benefit. But it also, like sometimes I say too much, or I definitely talk too much, way too much, way too frequently. And I might like be bothering people. And I&#8217;ll ask them. But at DreamHost, Kira Schroder and Mika Epstein both worked at DreamHost at the same time as me. And because I&#8217;m not shy and I am apparently not afraid to talk to people, I started messaging them and asking them questions. And not just them, but the other developers and leads, and the VP of product and so on. It helped that I already knew them, but just started asking them questions.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And also, being willing to be embarrassed and to look stupid is a huge plus because you learn a lot from making mistakes. If you make those mistakes in front of people, you&#8217;re going to remember. You&#8217;re going to remember the answer to those mistakes. And that&#8217;s kind of what I&#8217;ve been doing. I&#8217;ve kind of stumbled up, and asked a lot of stupid questions, which I&#8217;m still doing.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:21:46] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> I&#8217;m just going to interrupt you there very quickly because I love when I meet people who have no shame about failure. I&#8217;m being really serious. You know when you meet that character who literally doesn&#8217;t have the capacity to feel shame for their inability to do a thing that they&#8217;ve never done before? I don&#8217;t know, you see somebody who&#8217;s picked up a tennis racket for the first time and clearly can&#8217;t do anything useful with it, whatever it may be. Just imagine almost any scenario. But they are absolutely happy to do it in front of other people.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I know for me that&#8217;s not a gift I possess. I could be racked with sort of, oh, shame and all sorts of other things because I haven&#8217;t managed to achieve this level of competency out of the gate. And when I see people doing that, you know, failing willingly in front of other people, I&#8217;m always, always thinking, I really should be more like that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because I&#8217;m glancing around thinking, where are the people that are pouring scorn on them? And the answer is, they&#8217;re never anywhere to be seen. There&#8217;s nobody, generally speaking, looking and going, look at you. You messed up with the tennis racket. No, there&#8217;s just people looking going, oh, hang on a minute. No, what you need to do is this.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:22:58] <strong>Amy:</strong> Right, try this technique and.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:22:59] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Right, people around to support. And yet I seem to have, that is a thing in me which I suspect I&#8217;ll take to my grave, to my great cost. So well done for being that characteristic.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:23:11] <strong>Amy:</strong> Thank you. Well, I do have shame and fear of, I don&#8217;t prefer to fail in front of, for example, 54,000 people in the Core Slack channel. But I&#8217;ve done it so many times at this point, I&#8217;m like, yeah, I&#8217;m going to. I&#8217;m going to. I&#8217;m going to learn and I&#8217;m going to do better next time.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also in, way back in the day had a brief stint with performing. I was in a theater group, and one of the things that I learned in that theater group, and it really, really stuck with me, is that when you have an audience, the audience is rooting for you. They want you to win. They want you to succeed. They want to hear what you have to say. They want to see you do your whatever it is you&#8217;re there to do.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so when you think about it, I have horrible stage fright, so this doesn&#8217;t fix my stage fright but it does kind of fix the mentality of like being embarrassed potentially, or being afraid of failing in front of people. But you go into a room to lead a meeting, or to do whatever it is that you&#8217;re doing and you are going to be nervous, but it&#8217;s inevitable that you&#8217;re going to mess up because you&#8217;re human. And to look at it in the way that like, I&#8217;m going to mess up and everyone&#8217;s on this journey with me and they support me and they want me to win, you know? We&#8217;ll fix it together, we&#8217;ll learn together, we&#8217;ll.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:24:23] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> We need more of that. Don&#8217;t know how many times I&#8217;ve preached that gospel to my own children, only to not be able to actually carry it on myself.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;m going to pivot us slightly. I&#8217;m going to sort of draw us into the WordPress space because it&#8217;s a WordPress podcast after all. You found yourself in some fairly, I don&#8217;t know, important decision-making processes, sort of like contributing to Core and what have you. Can you just chart the journey for that? Like, how did you get to the point where you were contributing your own, presumably free time in some cases? Maybe it was on the company dollar, you know, maybe you were sponsored to do that. I think you implied earlier that that was the case. How did you end up picking WordPress and whichever team that you&#8217;ve spent most of your time in? Just chart that journey for us.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:25:04] <strong>Amy:</strong> So that leads us back to DreamHost. DreamHost back in the late, around 2017, DreamHost was, they&#8217;re a regular web host, and they were putting in a concerted effort to become a WordPress, a quote unquote, WordPress host. So they were looking into contributing and actively contributing to the project, you know, looking for more PR and marketing opportunities and being a sponsor, so on and so forth. And the hosting team, which has been my main team, was born directly of that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The hosting team was originally a, primarily DreamHost / wordpress.org project. There have been many other hosts that have been involved. But primarily, at the very beginning, it was spearheaded dramatically by DreamHost and wordpress.org. And so DreamHost was telling its employees, hey guys, we want to be a WordPress host. Hop into WordPress Slack and go to meetings and, like, represent. So they weren&#8217;t offering to like any special contribution contracts or anything like that. They were just encouraging people to check it out and get involved in whatever capacity they felt inclined to.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so I did. I hopped in the hosting channel. I went to a hosting meeting, and I wasn&#8217;t expecting this because I didn&#8217;t know at the time. I know now. So the hosting team originally was trying to do video meetings. The first meeting I went to was a video meeting, and I knew everyone in the room already. It was a bunch of DreamHost people, but there were also people from other web hosts who I knew from, you know, mutual contacts. So I knew everybody in the room already in one way or another, and so it was a very, very soft landing for me.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was easy to get involved because I had an in with all those people and with the team reps. Kira Schroder was one of the team reps. It also helps when the people in the project are really friendly and welcoming. And that has been my experience, that the other contributors, the team reps, and the team leads are very welcoming. Might be a different story on the development end. But in terms of just being involved with community and team happenings, usually you&#8217;ll get a very warm welcome.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And certainly the hosting team, if anybody wants to hop in and contribute to the hosting team or participate as a team rep, we&#8217;re going to be very welcoming. We&#8217;re going to want you to come. We&#8217;re going to be encouraging. We&#8217;re going to help guide you. We&#8217;re going to be super patient and we expect confusion, questions, stupid questions, mistakes, and so forth because that&#8217;s just how it goes. And so having someone on the other end receiving you really can make all the difference.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So the contributors that are listening today that can receive new contributors, be as warm and welcoming as you possibly can be. And it does kind of take a lot of extra effort to guide people, but I think it&#8217;s worth it, and you build relationships and strong ties along the way. And you never know what that person can do and what they will do and how that later on benefits you.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So I got a really warm welcome. The hosting team didn&#8217;t even exist until I think it was 2017. 2018 I joined and started contributing. I became a team rep in 2019. And a lot of that is because I&#8217;m really outgoing, and I just was like blah, blah, blah-ing in the meetings all the time. And so that also makes me visible. In a remote, a fully remote space, I&#8217;m actually less chatty in person, although I think people would probably argue with that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But it really, really helps to be outgoing and to jump in, like throw yourself in the fire. Throw yourself in the fire because you may or may not be thrown into the fire by someone else. It&#8217;s a really good way to learn. It&#8217;s very intimidating. I actually, I prefer more hand-holding onboarding than being thrown into the fire. But you can throw yourself into the fire in a gentle capacity. Like, hey, I volunteer to take team meeting notes, or volunteer to update some documentation. These are really kind of low-pressure things that you just need to know English, and how to type to do it. And, you know, it starts the ties between people and your presence in the project and so forth.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So I was really just hosting team for a very long time. At some point, I think it was, I joined Ladies of WordPress, I think the Slack community is, which is just like women who are involved in, women contributors basically, and befriended a couple people in that space. And one of those people I befriended was Francesca, or Francina is her Slack name, who is a Core contributor. I branched out and started going to Core meetings, like waving in at the new contributor meetings and so forth. I wasn&#8217;t quite as chatty in there because at the time it was like 30,000 people, which is a lot of people still. Now I think it&#8217;s 54,000 people in that channel.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So Francesca roped me in to, and I volunteered. You know, being not shy is really, really the key in this scenario. Being not shy led me to befriend people who then roped me into these projects, and I started contributing to Core, running release model working group meetings to kind of examine and improve the release process. And then at some point, so before every release, there&#8217;s a call for volunteers. And anyone can volunteer, you just need a wordpress.org account. Anyone can. And then of those volunteers, they form the release squad.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So I started volunteering. 5.6 is the first Core release that I was involved in. I was also working at InMotion Hosting at the time as a web development lead. And so I was working really, really, really long days. So I wasn&#8217;t quite as engaged in that release as I would have liked to been, or as I was with 6.9 and 7.0. But it was a good like backend release squad experience. And I learned a lot and made connections.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And the other contributors are really, really supportive. If you ask them for help, they&#8217;re going to help. And if they think you need help, they&#8217;ll offer to help even if you don&#8217;t ask. And so it&#8217;s kind of, there is some competition, and there is some criticism that happens, but for the most part everybody is really, really, really supportive.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So how I ended up being sponsored though, so I was joining from DreamHost on the clock. I was pretty much always working when I worked at DreamHost. I was working like these insane, like, 50, 60, 70 hour weeks. So I was pretty much always working. So I was joining on the clock. I was wearing many hats with them, and that was one of them. So I was not officially sponsored by them, but I do credit them as a past sponsor because of obvious reasons.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And thereafter I became a tech lead at a web dev agency called Canopy Studios. And they market themselves as being an open source contributor. They contribute to WordPress and they contribute to Drupal. And so they&#8217;re looking for their employees to be contributors, and they set aside three hours per week to contribute to your project. So they were sponsoring me for three hours per week. At the time I was doing way more than three hours per week. I was doing meetups, I was helping with WordCamp LA, I was helping with the Release Model Working Group, and I was a Hosting Team rep, and I was speaking at Camps.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So it&#8217;s a lot. It was really, like way more than three hours a week. But they, because of that sponsorship it kept me inclined to continue engaging with the project. And then InMotion Hosting had never officially sponsored a contributor, but one of my fellow hosting team reps was a developer at InMotion. That&#8217;s how I kind of ended up there. And so they were familiar, obviously they&#8217;re familiar with the WordPress project, and they&#8217;re familiar with contributing. I just straight up asked them if they would be willing to sponsor me. I was just like, hey, I do this thing. You guys want to use this thing for your marketing and PR, and how about you officially sponsor me? So they sponsored me for 10 hours a week. But again, I was working really, really long days, and I wasn&#8217;t able to fully dedicate myself to it as much as I would like to.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, that was around pandemic time. So the pandemic definitely affected my ability and everybody&#8217;s ability to contribute and engage. And then after that, I didn&#8217;t have a sponsor. I kept contributing because it was kind of like part of my thing. The Hosting Team had become special to me, and I guess that the element of me getting hyperfocused is probably key also to why I might contribute for free. Because I like will get involved in something, and then it becomes important to me, and I&#8217;m focused on it, and I&#8217;m going to carry it probably, hopefully carry it through whether I&#8217;m paid or not.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So I wasn&#8217;t sponsored for a while there. And then in 2023, I did a talk at WordCamp Europe. So I have family that lives in Israel. My brother lives in Israel. That context is important for this story. But WordCamp Europe that year was in Greece. I had been to Greece before. I love Greece. It&#8217;s like one of my favorite places. I&#8217;m going buy a house on an island there someday. But Greece is really close to Israel, so after WordCamp Europe, I went to Israel and visited my family.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before WordCamp Europe, I had done some podcasts and written some articles, and in those conversations, at some point it was brought up that I&#8217;m Jewish, and Jewish American, obviously. And I don&#8217;t know any other contributors that are Jewish. At that time, zero. I didn&#8217;t know a single one. I thought there weren&#8217;t any. And Jews are a world minority, so there aren&#8217;t that many that I know of, but there are a few.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So somebody directed me to Miriam, Miriam Schwab, who is, I didn&#8217;t even care who she was. I was like, yay, I get to make a new friend. But she&#8217;s the community manager for Elementor. And so I contacted Miriam trying to make a new friend. I was like, yay, another Jewish person that I could be friends with that contributes to WordPress. Little did I, I didn&#8217;t even, like I knew what her job role was, but it never occurred to me that Elementor might want to sponsor me, or that they&#8217;re looking for contributors to sponsor or anything like that.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so she invited me when I was in Israel to go to their headquarters, you know, meet their CEO, be shown around, meet other staff members, play on their, in their little old school arcade and so forth. And I was there like, yay, I&#8217;m making new friends. Totally naive completely to the fact that there was any professional interest whatsoever, which was silly. I was just so excited to make a new friend, or multiple new friends. And so then Miriam started talking to me about sponsoring me, and that&#8217;s how I ended up being sponsored by Elementor. So really kind of what you said, like a very unintentional chain of events that sort of just ended up working out the way it did.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:35:47] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah, looking back, there&#8217;s a thread there, isn&#8217;t there? But it&#8217;s only with the benefit of hindsight looking back that you can probably see the thread. On a day-to-day basis, it probably doesn&#8217;t quite feel like that. Are you currently sponsored by Elementor? Are you, in fact, are you sponsored by anybody currently? Yeah, okay.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:36:00] <strong>Amy:</strong> I am. So I&#8217;m sponsored part-time, 10 hours a week by Elementor. And again, I&#8217;ve been spending way more than 10 hours per week. So if anyone wants to sponsor me on top of them, please contact me.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:36:10] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Can I ask about that though. Why? I mean the question is probably obvious to you, but I don&#8217;t know on what level you&#8217;ve inspected that part of you. Obviously there&#8217;s a why. You&#8217;ve alluded to it. You know, there&#8217;s friendship there and there&#8217;s habit, and you&#8217;ve been accustomed to it and, you know, you like being in that community, and the people there are nice.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But just sort of drawing the veil back a little bit more. Why do you give more time than your allocation, let&#8217;s say, from Elementor? Why does the 10 hours not stop on the clock like you would do for a regular job? You know, 5 o&#8217;clock winds along and exactly 5 o&#8217;clock you put your tools down, and you go off, and you go home, and what have you. What do you get out of it? What&#8217;s the thing that is satisfied by this?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:36:49] <strong>Amy:</strong> Well, so it&#8217;s part personal and part professional. So I tend to not draw clear boundaries when it comes to work. I tend to like, if my shift is over, but the task isn&#8217;t complete, I will finish that task. Depending on, you know, details and so forth. So I guess there&#8217;s a bit of a level of dedication that maybe doesn&#8217;t even need to be there, but that&#8217;s fueled me in a lot of ways.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why do I contribute to wordpress.org specifically, even if I&#8217;m not paid? I do find it personally meaningful. Working with other people, making new friends, contributing to something bigger than me, participating in something bigger than me, giving to the world in one way or another, I find that personally meaningful. And it&#8217;s kind of kept my life a little bit more full and more rich over the past eight, nine years. And so it brings value to me in that way.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I have friends of a decade now from, you know, engaging with WordPress. It&#8217;s led me to jobs, and it&#8217;s led me to other opportunities and to meet really interesting people. And so there is a personal element to that for me personally. And I think that probably a lot of people also, maybe if somebody is more of an introvert, they might not have that same level of benefit that I, as not an introvert, have. Because I get a, the personal connection benefit and the meeting people is really rewarding to me.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But there&#8217;s also a lot of professional benefit being a team lead. We don&#8217;t say team lead, we say team rep, but it is a leadership position. So leading a team for a major software project has been pretty beneficial to getting jobs, getting opportunities, and just kind of a general professional portfolio. The Hosting Team is a bit of a red-headed stepchild and is kind of like quiet and nobody really knows that it exists. Except for maybe recently because of me talking about it. And it has been for a long time.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It started to blow up a lot, like way back in 2020-ish, 2019, 2020. And the pandemic kind of really threw a wrench in that. And then some other things over the years have also thrown wrenches in that. There was the whole hosting page debacle, and rift between .org and web hosts, that&#8217;s still currently affecting. So the Hosting Team is pretty, pretty quiet. It&#8217;s not like a big, Core is not quiet, Hosting Team is really quiet.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So that makes it easier to engage. But there&#8217;s definitely professional benefit that a lot of my jobs have been because of WordPress, or because of someone I met through WordPress, or my experience with contributing to WordPress just boosts my appeal to employers. So there&#8217;s that too.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And on top of that, you build skills. You know, I now have multiple repos that I&#8217;ve been a maintainer for, for years. And I had those skills to begin with, but you refine and define your skills more through experience and through working on teams and so forth.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:40:03] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Do you know, it&#8217;s really interesting the order in which you stack those answers. I feel, I could be entirely wrong about this. I feel like in the corporate world where everything is out and out profit, imagine, I don&#8217;t know, evilcorp.com or whatever it may be. I feel like the calculation there might be exactly the opposite. You know, you put them the other way round. You get the skills, which allow you to then advance your career, and the meaningful bit is just maybe there, maybe not.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the way that you stack that with the meaningful coming first is really interesting because I have that suspicion as well that the majority of the people in the WordPress project, if they were to truly ask themselves that same question, would probably arrive at a similar answer. That meaningfulness bit, it often doesn&#8217;t get talked about. It&#8217;s just kind of, oh, we all understand, we&#8217;re here, we&#8217;re having a nice time and what have you.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But that meaningful bit, I can&#8217;t put my hands on it. I can&#8217;t explain what that is, but that&#8217;s the same for me. There is something significant and meaningful about being involved in something, like you said, bigger than you, that has the capacity to improve people&#8217;s lives. And you don&#8217;t often get the chance to elucidate that thought and say it out loud. But when you do, it&#8217;s nice to know that that&#8217;s a part of your character, I think. That that that bit matters apparently more any other bit, because that&#8217;s the bit that tumbled out of your mouth first of all.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:41:26] <strong>Amy:</strong> Actually way more. Honestly way more than it because I am smart, I&#8217;ve taken many IQ tests. I might do and say stupid things, but nonetheless I have a high IQ, and very capable, and I have numerous different talents. I could do any variety of things. I think that if I were to be dropped in any work environment, I would excel, or at least be competent in that work environment. It doesn&#8217;t quite matter what it is. That&#8217;s, you know, my perception of myself, and I&#8217;m also a huge advocate of learning on the job. I think that companies should be hiring people who don&#8217;t know what they&#8217;re doing, and then teaching them what to do. That&#8217;s personally my take on it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so the meaningfulness is, it&#8217;s way more powerful than, I could make money and I could, obviously we all have to survive, but it kind of all folds into itself. That you get involved in something because it&#8217;s meaningful, and then you like learn and build skills and make connections and end up making money from it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If people come to WordPress trying to make money, I think that you can absolutely, and probably a lot of it, but it&#8217;s the wrong values. It&#8217;s not a match for open source values and for WordPress values. And the WordPress values are one of the, probably the thing that attracts me to the WordPress open source project the most.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:42:52] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Right. And I think me too. I think that was what drew me in the first place. But again, I can&#8217;t get my hands around it. I can&#8217;t sum it up. But there is a there there. There is a thing. There&#8217;s this ephemeral, non, you know, you can&#8217;t quite make contact with it, but there&#8217;s a certain feeling.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you go to these events and you see that, you know, this whole thing has been put on by a bunch of volunteers, and the underlying code, which is what we&#8217;re all there for anyway, that equally has been largely created by a bunch of volunteers.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Where&#8217;s the profit motive for that? Well in many cases, there isn&#8217;t much of a profit motive obviously, as you said, for some people there is. That is a curious characteristic. I don&#8217;t know, there&#8217;s just something about those people that I would like to be in proximity to. Finding it very hard to describe what I&#8217;m saying, but there is something about that characteristic that I like to be in proximity to. That&#8217;s kind of it, I think.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:43:42] <strong>Amy:</strong> It&#8217;s very authentic and genuine. You can feel it as a human being. You can feel it when somebody wants something from you, or maybe I can&#8217;t. But most people can feel it, if somebody wants something from you, and that&#8217;s their intention. Versus if someone&#8217;s interested in you, or compelled towards you for some subconscious or other underlying reason that they&#8217;re just like, oh, you seem nice. You seem interesting. You touched on this topic and I like that topic, you know? There&#8217;s something very rewarding, and deeply fulfilling, on a human, spiritual. It covers our basic needs as humans for interaction and for community.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And I think that at events it&#8217;s even stronger. Like in Slack, you&#8217;re all in different locations. There&#8217;s definitely, you know, social interaction happening, and friendships being formed, and bonds being built. But at events it&#8217;s kind of like that on steroids. There&#8217;s a really strong sense of community, really strong sense of belonging together, a really strong sense of doing something meaningful, and contributing to something meaningful, and being part of something meaningful. And I think that&#8217;s really powerful. And it satisfies a core human need.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:44:54] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah, that is so interesting. I&#8217;d love to put a survey together and actually ask intelligent questions which drill down specifically into that. Because I think there would be a correlation between the things that you&#8217;ve just described, the characteristics that you&#8217;ve described, the feelings that you like to be associated with, the events that you enjoy and what have you. I think there&#8217;s a correlation between that and the community that we have. I can&#8217;t quite prove it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But time and again, that intuition has proved itself in the real world. You know, you get into conversations like this, and this kind of subject emerges. Why do you do it? Because it&#8217;s meaningful. Because I get a great sense of satisfaction from it, and I know that I&#8217;m doing something which will be bigger than me, longer living than me, and so on and so forth. So, gosh, that&#8217;s really interesting. I&#8217;m glad that you share that same opinion.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:45:38] <strong>Amy:</strong> It&#8217;s beautiful.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:45:39] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah. Yeah it is, isn&#8217;t it? And that&#8217;s the basis upon which the whole project is built.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:45:44] <strong>Amy:</strong> Right. Without the community there&#8217;s, it would be a much different thing.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:45:48] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah, really so. Sadly, we&#8217;re going to have to end it because of the time constraints that we&#8217;ve got. But what a fascinating, I think we were just peeling back something really interesting there, but there we go. That&#8217;s the time that is allowed for this particular episode.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So anything that you wanted to get out that you didn&#8217;t get a chance to? Is there any intelligent question that you wish I had asked you?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:46:06] <strong>Amy:</strong> No, not at all. Thank you so much for inviting me. I&#8217;ve really enjoyed chatting with you, and I found it very interesting.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:46:13] <strong>Nathan Wrigley:</strong> Yeah, thank you. It&#8217;s been a pleasure. Thank you so much. This will go out on the wptavern.com podcast, the Jukebox podcast, so if you want to go and check it out over there, wptavern.com.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So all that it remains for me to do is say thank you very much, Amy Kamala, for chatting to me today. Really appreciate it</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[00:46:30] <strong>Amy:</strong> Likewise. Thank you too, and thank you to all your listeners.</p>\n</div></details>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the podcast today we have Amy Kamala.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amys journey into tech is anything but conventional, starting with a Master of Fine Arts from UCLA and a passion for art that eventually bled into, and was overtaken by, technology. Since 2018 shes been an active contributor to WordPress, serving multiple terms, such as the Hosting and Core teams. Her career zigzags through key roles at DreamHost, InMotion Hosting, Pantheon, Canopy Studios, and local government, picking up everything from technical support and web development to managing teams of designers and DevOps staff. Along the way, Amy has organised WordCamps, led teams, and is currently being sponsored by Elementor for her open source work.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Todays conversation gets into the chaotic, creative overlap between art and tech, and how those different mindsets can feed one another, especially in the world of WordPress. We talk about the blend of creative and logical thinking needed in web development, and why skills like user experience, curiosity, and even willingness to fail publicly can set you apart.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We then turn to contribution. What draws people to volunteer in an open source community, what Amy gets out of participating far beyond her paid hours, and the messy journey from being an eager helper to an essential part of the team. She explains the unique feeling of the WordPress community, the importance of being welcoming to new contributors, and why being outgoing, and not afraid to ask questions, can be your biggest asset.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If youve ever wondered about the blurred lines between art and code, why people throw themselves into volunteer work in the WordPress ecosystem, or whats really at the heart of this global community, this episode is for you.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Useful links</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://profiles.wordpress.org/desrosj/\">Jonathan Desrosiers</a></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://www.dreamhost.com\">DreamHost</a></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://www.inmotionhosting.com\">InMotion Hosting</a></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://pantheon.io\">Pantheon</a></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://miriamschwab.me\">Miriam Schwab</a></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://elementor.com\">Elementor</a></p>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Wed, 12 Aug 2026 13:00:00 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:14:\"Nathan Wrigley\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:40;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:21:\"\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:104:\"Open Channels FM: Open Source Changes, WordPress Vulnerabilities, and WordCampUS Community Conversations\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:34:\"https://openchannels.fm/?p=2558610\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:109:\"https://openchannels.fm/open-source-changes-wordpress-vulnerabilities-and-wordcampus-community-conversations/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:125:\"Open Channels News covers a WordPress supply chain attack, user preferences in plugins, and highlights WordCampUS in Phoenix.\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Wed, 12 Aug 2026 10:18:21 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:8:\"Bob Dunn\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:41;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:21:\"\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:18:\"Matt: Beeper Merge\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:23:\"https://ma.tt/?p=154053\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:35:\"https://ma.tt/2026/08/beeper-merge/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:275:\"<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://blog.beeper.com/2026/08/10/beeper-august-2026/\">Beeper has some fun new features</a> where you can merge chats with the same person across multiple networks, polls, labels&#8230;

Use this as inspiration for your own stuff and to get the best info about this release. If you do copy and paste, just remember that others might do the same, and it could lead to some awkward moments with duplicate content floating around online.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Each item has been tagged using best guesses with different high-level labels so that you can more readily see at a glance who is likely to be most impacted.<br />Each item has a high-level description, visuals (if relevant), and key resources if you would like to learn more.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"overview\">Overview</h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46684\" height=\"576\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/gutenbergtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Highlight-grid-7.1.png?resize=1024%2C576&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>WordPress 7.1 Highlight grid <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/79297#issuecomment-5223798027\">draft August 10, 2026</a></em></figcaption></figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress 7.1 rounds out the block editor&#8217;s styling controls and makes working with media noticeably smoother. Long-requested features let you style how blocks look across three screen sizes and in interactive states like hover and focus — all without writing custom CSS. The admin experience becomes more personal, too, following you with your own color scheme and toolbar across every screen.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Handling images gets a considerable upgrade, too. The new media editor modal brings free-form cropping, rotation, and metadata editing into one workflow, and client-side media processing makes uploads faster and more resilient, with broader format support and better-optimized files. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new Playlist and Tabs blocks enrich the layout options available out of the box and make for more creative information presentation. In the same realm fall the expanded Icon API with custom icon collections, dynamic galleries, and background gradients for more blocks.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The unification of WP Admin and the block editors progresses as well: the editors now respect your admin color scheme, and the admin bar stays with you on every screen — including the editors and the front end. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While real-time collaboration has been punted to a future WordPress version, the asynchronous collaboration in Notes took real steps forward with inline notes on partial text selections, @mentions, rich text formatting, and multiple notes per block.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond the headliners, core blocks receive many quality-of-life improvements and bug fixes to make editing content in WordPress streamlined, consistent, and fast — and developers get an expanding set of APIs to build on.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"resources-help-test-wordpress-7-1-fieldguide-dev-notes-are-scheduled-to-be-published-around-rc-august-5-links-in-this-document-are-to-the-draft-versions-roadmap-to-7-1of-note-this-release-consists-of-features-from-the-gutenberg-plugin-version-22-7-23-6-here-are-the-release-posts-of-those-plugin-releases-22-7-22-8-22-9-23-0-23-1-23-2-23-3-23-4-23-5-23-6-later-gutenberg-releases-contain-bug-fixes-backported-to-wordpress-7-1-release-branches\"><strong>Resources</strong></h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/test/2026/07/15/help-test-wordpress-7-1/\">Help Test WordPress 7.1 </a></li>\n\n\n\n<li>Follow along with <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/tag/dev-notes+7-1/\">Dev Notes published</a>. </li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/08/05/wordpress-7-1-field-guide/\">WordPress 7.1 Field Guide</a></li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/06/19/roadmap-to-7-1/\">Roadmap to 7.1</a></li>\n</ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"resources-help-test-wordpress-7-1-fieldguide-dev-notes-are-scheduled-to-be-published-around-rc-august-5-links-in-this-document-are-to-the-draft-versions-roadmap-to-7-1of-note-this-release-consists-of-features-from-the-gutenberg-plugin-version-22-7-23-6-here-are-the-release-posts-of-those-plugin-releases-22-7-22-8-22-9-23-0-23-1-23-2-23-3-23-4-23-5-23-6-later-gutenberg-releases-contain-bug-fixes-backported-to-wordpress-7-1-release-branches\">This release consists of features from the Gutenberg plugin version 22.7 23.6.

The feature builds on earlier steps in this direction — the ability to show or hide blocks by screen size and the Navigation block&#8217;s customizable mobile overlay — and extends the idea to styling itself.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-full is-resized\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46364\" height=\"760\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/gutenbergtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Responsive-Styles-in-Preview-dropdown.png?resize=518%2C760&#038;ssl=1\" style=\"width: 236px; height: auto;\" width=\"518\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"resources-help-test-wordpress-7-1-fieldguide-dev-notes-are-scheduled-to-be-published-around-rc-august-5-links-in-this-document-are-to-the-draft-versions-roadmap-to-7-1of-note-this-release-consists-of-features-from-the-gutenberg-plugin-version-22-7-23-6-here-are-the-release-posts-of-those-plugin-releases-22-7-22-8-22-9-23-0-23-1-23-2-23-3-23-4-23-5-23-6-later-gutenberg-releases-contain-bug-fixes-backported-to-wordpress-7-1-release-branches\">The feature is available across all block editors for Posts, Pages, Templates, Patterns,template parts and Navigation. Responsive styling follows a desktop-first model, letting styles cascade to smaller screens until you customize them for specific devices.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"resources-help-test-wordpress-7-1-fieldguide-dev-notes-are-scheduled-to-be-published-around-rc-august-5-links-in-this-document-are-to-the-draft-versions-roadmap-to-7-1of-note-this-release-consists-of-features-from-the-gutenberg-plugin-version-22-7-23-6-here-are-the-release-posts-of-those-plugin-releases-22-7-22-8-22-9-23-0-23-1-23-2-23-3-23-4-23-5-23-6-later-gutenberg-releases-contain-bug-fixes-backported-to-wordpress-7-1-release-branches\">Viewport-specific values are currently limited to block sidebar settings (like typography, spacing, and colors). The controls work in Global Styles (affecting all instances of a block) and on individual block instances, across all block editors — Posts, Pages, Templates, Patterns, template parts, and Navigation. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"resources-help-test-wordpress-7-1-fieldguide-dev-notes-are-scheduled-to-be-published-around-rc-august-5-links-in-this-document-are-to-the-draft-versions-roadmap-to-7-1of-note-this-release-consists-of-features-from-the-gutenberg-plugin-version-22-7-23-6-here-are-the-release-posts-of-those-plugin-releases-22-7-22-8-22-9-23-0-23-1-23-2-23-3-23-4-23-5-23-6-later-gutenberg-releases-contain-bug-fixes-backported-to-wordpress-7-1-release-branches\">Any controls from the toolbar that can&#8217;t be set by viewport will be hidden when a viewport state is enabled. Among the most significant controls: viewport-level aspect ratio presets for Image, Featured Image, and Cover blocks, so each can be optimized per device (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/78543\">#78543</a>). Alongside this work, the Layout controls moved from the Settings tab to the Styles tab, keeping all styling decisions together. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"opt-out\">Community feedback from the Call for Testing made sure this feature ships with an off switch via a new <code>responsiveEditingEnabled</code> editor setting: turned off, both the <strong>Responsive styles</strong> option in the <strong>View</strong> menu and the viewport selector in <strong>Global Styles</strong> disappear. It gates the editing interface only. Responsive styles already saved keep rendering as before. (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/80814\">#80814</a>).

wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"media-editor-modal-and-free-form-image-cropper-end-user-site-admin\">[end user][site admin]</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new media editor modal replaces the inline cropping tool, accessed via the familiar <strong>Crop</strong> button, and brings together free-form and aspect-ratio cropping, flip, fine-grained rotation with snap guides, and metadata editing in one unified workflow. (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/78653\">78653</a>, <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/78935\">78935</a>, <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/78792\">78792</a>) </p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46325\" height=\"682\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/gutenbergtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Media-editor-modal.png?resize=1024%2C682&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This considerably improves the editing experience in WordPress Block editor. The goal was to eliminate the need for external tools for basic image editing. You can now exercise faster, more precise control over your images—fine-tuning framing, fixing orientation, or mirroring an image to better fit your layout in just a few clicks, all without breaking your editing flow.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the Cover Block, this new media editor modal is hooked up to the <strong>Crop background image</strong> button. The option appears whenever the Cover block uses an editable image, and the block automatically recalculates its overlay color and contrast after an edit, so text stays readable even if the crop removes the image&#8217;s brightest or darkest areas (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79258\">79258</a> )<br /><br />Tracking: <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/73771\">Media Editor Modal task tracking</a> (#73771)</p>\n\n\n\n <figure class=\"wp-block-jetpack-videopress jetpack-videopress-player\">\n <div class=\"jetpack-videopress-player__wrapper\"> </div>\n \n \n </figure>\n \n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"client-side-media-processing-improvements\">Client-side media processing improvements </h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"client-side-media-processing-improvements-developer-site-admin-enterprise\"><strong>[developer][site admin][enterprise]</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you upload an image in the block editor, your browser — not your server — will now handle the creation of all sub-sized images using a WebAssembly (WASM) version of libvips (wasm-vips), a high-performance image processing library. The result stored on your server is improved over what server-side processing produced until today: smaller files generated directly on your device. Server-side image processing CPU usage could decline by more than 80% on capable devices (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79188\">79188</a>)</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The update also comes with broader modern image format support that includes HEIC (the default format for iPhone photos), JPEGS with HDR gain maps (used by UltraHDR and Adaptive HDR), AVIF and WebP support built in. A great performance improvement is the GIF-to-video conversion feature for lighter, more efficient files that are faster to load on the front-end. This feature is opt-in right now. Uploads are also more resilient, with a progress indicator and automatic retries if your data connectivity drops off (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/76765\">76765</a>, <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79307\">79307</a>).</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For content creators uploading media, this update means better support for HDR images, faster, more reliable uploads, broader format support, and better-optimized files without manual intervention.<br /><br />Plugin developers should note that some server-side hooks, including `wp_generate_attachment_metadata`, `image_resize_dimensions`, and `wp_handle_upload` may not fire as before. The team is working on documentation and mitigation strategies.

With WordPress 7.1, this grows into a proper, public API: plugins and themes can register their own icons, group them into collections, render them on the server, and read them over the REST API.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For content creators, the most visible change is the Icon block&#8217;s picker: it now <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79681\">groups icons by collection</a>, with a tab per collection plus an &#8220;All&#8221; tab, and your search query carries over as you switch tabs. Custom icons from plugins and themes appear right alongside the core set. The block itself picked up several refinements: it <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79111\">inserts a default icon</a> so you&#8217;re never staring at an empty placeholder, offers <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/77017\">flip and rotate controls</a> <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79192\">in the toolbar</a>, and shows <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/80251\">text and background color controls by default</a>.</p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"for-developers-registering-more-collections\">For developers: Registering more collections</h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For developers, the pieces come together on the PHP side: register a collection with wp_register_icon_collection(), add icons with <code>wp_register_icon()</code> — from an inline SVG string or an .svg file — and <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/78332\">print any registered icon</a> with wp_get_icon(), including size, CSS class, and an accessible label. Icon names get <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/76079\">strict validation</a>, the <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/80139\">registry&#8217;s register method is now public</a>, and REST API endpoints expose collections and icons to your own code. A dev note with full code examples is on its way to the Make Core blog.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One breaking change to flag: all 330 icons in @wordpress/icons v15 now declare <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79320\"><code>fill=\"currentColor\"</code></a>, so icons inherit the surrounding text color by default. If you&#8217;ve been tinting icons with the CSS fill property, switch to color — it&#8217;s more reliable, since an icon may use fill, stroke, or both internally. If you register your own icons, add fill=&#8221;currentColor&#8221; to their &lt;svg&gt; element to get the same behavior.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Dev Note <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/07/24/registering-and-rendering-svg-icons-in-wordpress-7-1/\">Registering and rendering SVG icons in WordPress 7.1</a> holds all the details. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tracking: <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/75715\">SVG Icon API: Iteration for WordPress 7.1</a> (#75715)</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46329\" height=\"616\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/gutenbergtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/icons-block.png?resize=1024%2C616&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"admin-bar-everywhere\">Admin Bar everywhere </h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"admin-bar-everywhere-all\"><strong>[</strong>all<strong>]</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With WordPress 7.1, the WordPress admin bar which sits at the top of your site&#8217;s front end and other admin pages is now displayed when using block editor by default. It stays hidden when Fullscreen mode and Distraction-free mode are both turned on. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Until now, entering the editor in its default fullscreen mode meant the admin bar disappeared, cutting you off from the rest of wp-admin. Since the admin bar now provides site context, the update also replaces the top-left W/site icon in the site editor with an explicit back button, making the navigation control more obvious (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79197\">79197</a>). </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With this update also comes a design refresh: </p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>your site icon replaces the home icon, </li>\n\n\n\n<li>the profile avatar becomes circular, and </li>\n\n\n\n<li>the command palette keyboard shortcut moves into the Admin bar to remove visual clutter and resolve shortcut conflicts. (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79060\">79060</a>) </li>\n</ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This keeps the familiar navigation with you on all screens again. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dev Notes with all the details for users and developer can be found here: <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/07/13/consistent-navigation-in-wordpress-7-1-with-persistent-toolbar/\">Consistent navigation in WordPress 7.1 with persistent toolbar</a>. </p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46296\" height=\"320\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/gutenbergtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/AdminBar-everywhere-site-icon.png?resize=900%2C320&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"900\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"new-blocks\">New Blocks </h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"new-blocks-all\"><strong>[all]</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This release expands the block library with versatile new tools.

The tracklist itself is configurable — you can set the play order and toggle artwork, artist names, track numbers, and <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/78954\">track length</a> individually to suit the design of your page.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/75203\">WaveformPlayer visualization</a> comes with a <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/76147\">visualization style selector</a>. You can set <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/80065\">waveform and waveform background colors</a> for more granular theming and show the <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79938\">track artwork on the play button</a>, accessible for all visitors. The Playlist and Playlist Track blocks are available in the default block library.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the first version and contributors are working on improvements for the next WordPress version, too looking to add more waveform styles, shuffle and skip buttons, a hover overlay for more intuitive track scrubbing, as well as performance improvements.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tracking: <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/77421\">Playlist Block: Iteration issue for 7.1</a> (#77421)</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46330\" height=\"583\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/gutenbergtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/playlist-block.png?resize=1024%2C583&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"1024\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"tabs-block\">Tabs block</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new Tabs block organizes content into separate tabbed panels that visitors click through to navigate. It&#8217;s a design pattern that presents information compactly without overwhelming readers with a wall of text. It&#8217;s a common layout for FAQs, product features, or any content where you want to show options side-by-side. For editors, it&#8217;s a familiar, flexible layout pattern now available natively in WordPress.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The block family consists of a Tab List for the navigation and Tab Panels for the content. Each panel accepts any blocks you like, and the tab buttons come with their own color, typography, border, and spacing controls, so the navigation can be styled to match your theme. Using the toolbar buttons you can reorder the tabs quickly. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under the hood, the markup and keyboard behavior follow the best practices set out in <a href=\"https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/patterns/tabs/\">the tabs pattern from the W3C ARIA Authoring Practices Guide</a>.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/73230\">Tracking: Stabilize Tabs Blocks</a> (#73230)</p>\n\n\n\n <figure class=\"wp-block-jetpack-videopress jetpack-videopress-player\">\n <div class=\"jetpack-videopress-player__wrapper\"> </div>\n \n \n </figure>\n \n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"improved-blocks-and-block-handling\">Improved Blocks and Block handling</h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Core blocks receive numerous quality-of-life improvements in 7.1. These updates refine existing editing workflows, simplify media handling, and provide deeper customization for layouts and design.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-transforms-preview-first-convert-faster\">Block transforms: preview first, convert faster<sup> </sup></h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"block-transforms-preview-first-convert-faster-end-user-site-admin\"><strong>[end user][site admin]</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Switching a block&#8217;s look or type is now much easier to evaluate before you commit. When you open the block switcher in the toolbar, the style options a theme provides — say, a Button&#8217;s &#8220;Outline&#8221; style — show live previews on hover, so you see exactly how your block will look with the style applied. (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/75889\">75889</a>) The same previews in the inspector&#8217;s Styles panel now match the toolbar presentation, so it no longer matters where you make the switch. (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/75989\">75989</a>) A small polish fix also centers the Navigation block&#8217;s preview in its preview pane. (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/75741\">75741</a>)</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Transforms got more capable, too: a block can now transform directly into a variation of another block. Instead of converting to a Group and then picking Row afterwards, the transform menu offers Row or Stack as direct targets — one step instead of two. (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/78713\">78713</a>)</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The same &#8220;one step instead of two&#8221; thinking extends to legacy content. Pasting or converting an <code></code> shortcode now creates a proper Embed block instead of leaving raw shortcode text behind, so embeds from YouTube and other services display correctly right away (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/77937\">77937</a>)— and if you change your mind, undo restores a paragraph with the URL rather than deleting it. (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/77551\">77551). </a></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Shortcode block joins in as well: when its content matches a registered shortcode, it now offers block-specific transforms to convert it into the equivalent block. <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/77944\">(77944</a>) </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For anyone maintaining a site with years of shortcode-based posts, that removes a tedious cleanup step on the way to block-based editing.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"combine-gradient-and-image-backgrounds\">Combine gradient and image backgrounds </h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"combine-gradient-and-image-backgrounds-end-user-theme-builder-site-admin\"><strong>[end user]</strong> <strong>[theme builder][site admin]</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More blocks now support background gradients through the new background.gradient block support, which<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/75859\"> layers a gradient on top of a background image</a> instead of one overwriting the other — a translucent color wash over a photo, for instance, without custom CSS.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Previously, gradients lived only in the Color panel, stored as a CSS background shorthand that clashed with any image on the block. The new support adds a Gradient control to the Background panel next to the existing Image control, and the style engine combines both into a single layered background-image value on individual blocks, in Global Styles, and via theme.json. A follow-up allows<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79791\"> modern color functions in standalone gradients</a>, and the<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/77279\"> text and background color controls moved</a> to the Typography and Background panels to match.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To place the two color settings for background and gradients in the sidebar together, the controls needed to be split up from the text color. So now the color settings for text color and background colore are in two different panels. </p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default wp-block-gallery-7 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46775\" height=\"335\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/gutenbergtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/Screenshot-2026-08-14-at-10.28.41.png?resize=273%2C335&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"273\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46779\" height=\"464\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/gutenbergtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/Screenshot-2026-08-14-at-10.31.19.png?resize=281%2C464&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"281\" /></figure>\n</figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress 7.1 ships with six blocks supporting the new gradients:<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/75859\"> Group</a>,<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79391\"> Verse</a>,<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79840\"> Accordion</a>,<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79841\"> Pullquote</a>,<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79842\"> Post Content</a>, and<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79843\"> Quote</a>.

When the block&#8217;s &#8220;Embed video from URL&#8221; feature shipped in WordPress 7.0, site builders<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/75069\"> asked for a way to curate or disable it</a>. WordPress 7.1 adds a new allowedVideoProviders attribute to restrict which video providers are offered, or to remove the URL-embed option entirely by allowing none (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/80092\">#80092</a>). Existing embeds keep working; only new URL input in the editor is restricted. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The details are already reflected in the<a href=\"https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/reference-guides/core-blocks/core-blocks-media/core-block-cover/\"> Cover block&#8217;s documentation</a>.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"gallery-attached\">Gallery and the attached images workflow in the Media Library </h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"gallery-and-the-attached-images-workflow-in-the-media-library-end-user-site-admin\"><strong>[end user][site admin]</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Images you upload while writing a post have always been &#8220;attached&#8221; to that post. This specifically true for older sites, pre-Block editor. Attached images where no accessible as an cluster and need to be added the block editor canvas one at a time. WordPress 7.1 finally puts that relationship to work in the editor, via an additional filter drop-down item <strong>Uploaded to this post </strong>in the Media Library Inserter modal. Photos and other media you&#8217;ve uploaded stay within reach for reuse instead of disappearing into the media library. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Gallery block is the showcase: instead of hand-picking every image, a single <strong>Use attached images</strong> button populates a dynamic gallery from all media attached to the current post (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/78796\">#78796</a>). For content creators, this makes assembling image galleries faster and more flexible. It also helps reorganize image on older posts. The Source panel provides options for sorting the images. This brings the block editor handling of Galleries up to par with some features of the [ gallery ] shortcode.</p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46339\" height=\"170\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/gutenbergtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Use-attached-images-wp71.png?resize=657%2C170&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"657\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To have entire freedom to control the Gallery block, the Detach feature comes in handy. A <strong>Detach</strong> button in the toolbar and in the sidebars <strong>Source</strong> panel, makes out a stand-alone Gallery without the dynamic connetion to the posts image. Using it help user to edit/upate the gallery block. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Below video visualizes the connection between a list of image attached to a post from the Media Library and the gallery block with the new feature. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tracking:<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/77117\"> WordPress 7.1: dynamic galleries and post-attached media iteration issue</a> (#77117)</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Its a step back toward the simplicity of dropping photos into a post and having WordPress do the arranging. It&#8217;s the first visible piece of a larger effort around<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/76955\"> dynamic galleries and post-attached media</a>, with dynamic queries by date and eventually categories or tags ahead.</p>\n\n\n\n <figure class=\"wp-block-jetpack-videopress jetpack-videopress-player\">\n <div class=\"jetpack-videopress-player__wrapper\"> </div>\n \n \n </figure>\n \n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"image-block\">Image Block: Mark as decorative toggle </h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"image-block\"><strong>[end user][site admin]</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-full\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46343\" height=\"487\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/gutenbergtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/mark-as-decorative-edited.png?resize=263%2C487&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"263\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Screen readers announce every image to their users — but some images, like dividers and design flourishes, carry no information worth announcing. The Image block&#8217;s new &#8220;Mark as decorative&#8221; checkbox tells assistive technologies to skip such an image entirely on the front end, by rendering it with role=&#8221;none&#8221; in the published post. It now eliminates the question, did we forget an alt=text or was it a deliberate decision to leave the alt-text empty?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is further processing to come with the checked box. Marking an image decorative clears its alt text and disables captions and links, since an image that links somewhere or explains something isn&#8217;t decorative by definition. Until now, the accessible route was knowing the empty-alt-text convention; the checkbox makes the intent explicit, machine-readable, and available to every content creator. (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/78064\">78064</a>)</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"login-out-block-improvements\">Login/out Block Improvements </h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"login-out-block-improvements-theme-builder-site-admin-developer\"><strong>[theme builder][site admin][developer]</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Login/Logout block has an option to display a full login form instead of a simple link — but until now, that form&#8217;s submit button ignored your theme entirely, rendering with plain browser-default styles that stuck out next to every other button on the site. With a block theme active, the submit button now carries the standard button classes (wp-block-button__link and wp-element-button), so it automatically picks up the button styling your theme defines in theme.json — colors, border radius, and all — with no custom CSS required. The block follows the same approach the Comments form already uses, resolving a mismatch first reported back in 2023. (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/76746\">76746</a>)</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"navigation-block-and-link-creation\">Navigation Block and Link Creation </h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"navigation-block-and-link-creation-theme-builder-site-admin-end-user\"><strong>[theme builder]</strong> <strong>[site admin][end user]</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Navigation block picks up several improvements that give site builders more freedom in what a menu can contain and where it can be edited. The Login/Logout block can now be<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/75497\"> nested inside submenus</a> (#75497), handy for tucking account actions into a &#8220;My Account&#8221; dropdown instead of spending a top-level slot on them. New links can be<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/75918\"> created directly from the sidebar List View</a> in the Site Editor (#75918), so building out a menu no longer requires clicking into each item on the canvas. And the Home Link block<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/76672\"> gains previously missing controls</a> (#76672), bringing it up to par with its navigation siblings. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One behavior change to note for theme builders: the Navigation block no longer force-propagates its font size down to individual menu items (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/77419\">#77419</a>). Until now, every navigation link, submenu, and page list item received the parent&#8217;s font-size markup — and because relative units multiply, nested dropdowns compounded dramatically (1.5em became 2.25em, then 3.375em). </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The block now relies on standard CSS inheritance instead, which also fixes mismatched typography between the editor canvas and the front end. Most themes need no changes, but themes that target <code>has-{slug}-font-size</code> classes directly on nav items should check their menus — the <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/08/04/miscellaneous-block-editor-changes-in-wordpress-7-1/\">Miscellaneous Editor Changes dev note</a> includes a filter to restore the old markup if needed.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"search-block-styling-theme-builder-site-admin-end-user\">Search block Styling</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"search-block-styling-theme-builder-site-admin-end-user\"><strong>[theme builder]</strong> <strong>[site admin][end user]</strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A styling gap is closed in the release for the Search block: color settings now apply to the search input field even when the search button is disabled (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/77219\">77219</a>), so your search boxes match your design system regardless of which display options you choose.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The block also embraces modern HTML: it can now render inside the native &lt;search&gt; landmark element, which carries search semantics for browsers and assistive technologies without the manual role=&#8221;search&#8221; attribute. Because dropping that attribute could break existing theme CSS, the feature is opt-in — per block via a new HTML element selector in the Advanced panel, or site-wide with add_theme_support( &#8216;search-element&#8217; ) (#78485).

You can now attach a note to a specific text selection rather than to a whole block. Select part of a paragraph, add a note, and the highlight stays anchored to that text as you keep editing around it. A single block can carry multiple inline notes, sorted by the order they appear, and none of the highlighting shows up in the published post. Also, blocks are no longer limited to a single conversation, either — you can start<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/75147\"> multiple note threads on the same block</a>.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The conversations themselves got more expressive, too.

All changes come pre-selected; deselect any you want to keep as local overrides, and only the checked styles are applied. Undo still restores the previous state in one step. What was a somewhat risky action is now a deliberate choice. You see exactly what will change across your site before committing.

If the current parent wouldn&#8217;t normally show up in the list (a pingback, say), it&#8217;s kept in there as the selected option, so saving without touching the field changes nothing.

For anyone who prefers the previous behavior, there&#8217;s a new personal option: a &#8220;Disable infinite scrolling in the Media Library grid view&#8221; checkbox on the profile screen. The setting only appears for users who can actually upload files, since others never see the attachment grid.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For developers, the existing media_library_infinite_scrolling filter still works and now takes top precedence: a hooked filter always wins, followed by the user&#8217;s profile preference, with infinite scrolling enabled when neither is set. Note the filter&#8217;s default value has flipped from false to true as of 7.1.0, so any code relying on the old default should be reviewed.

WordPress ships with deliberately cautious defaults — and until now, changing them required an mu-plugin. With WordPress 7.1, hosting providers and site owners can adjust the default mode and eagerness through environment variables or wp-config.php constants. A well-configured host with page and object caching in place can opt its sites into more aggressive speculation and pass the speed gains on to visitors. The real-world data hosts gather this way will also help inform whether core changes the defaults for everyone in a future release.

These tools offer greater control over site design, block behavior, and system integrations.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"post-editor-iframe-now-always-on\">Post editor iframe now always on</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other editors in WordPress—the site editor, the template editor, and block, template, and device previews—have been unconditionally iframed for a long time, going back to the template editor&#8217;s introduction in 5.8. The post editor was the holdout: starting in 7.0, whether it ran isolated depended on the blocks actually present in a given post, so a post using only Block API v3+ blocks got the isolated canvas, while a post containing even one older block (API v1 or v2) dropped out of it entirely. That meant the same site, even the same author, could see the editor behave differently from post to post. <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/75187\">In 7.1, that condition is removed</a>: every post editor is always iframed, regardless of theme type or block API version.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For most people writing and editing content, this is good news—no more switching behavior depending on which blocks happen to be inserted. Block developers have a bit of homework, though: the iframe has its own document and window, separate from the admin page where editor scripts run, so any code that reaches for the global document or window to touch the canvas will now be looking at the wrong place. The usual fix is to get the canvas&#8217;s document from an element inside it (via ownerDocument and its defaultView) rather than the global object, and to use useRefEffect for attaching and cleaning up canvas event listeners.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read the <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/08/03/iframed-editor-changes-in-wordpress-7-1/\">dev note on the 7.1 changes</a> and the <a href=\"https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/reference-guides/block-api/block-api-versions/block-migration-for-iframe-editor-compatibility/\">block migration guide</a> for more details.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ryan Welcher published a guide and a demo plugin. <a href=\"https://gutenbergtimes.com/the-post-editor-is-going-full-iframe-what-block-developers-need-to-know-before-wordpress-7-1/\">The post editor is going full iframe: what block developers need to know before WordPress 7.1</a> with code examples and instructions how to fix things if necessary. </p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"abilities-api-opens-up-its-execution-pipeline\">Abilities API opens up its execution pipeline</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Abilities API arrived in WordPress 6.9, and 7.1 gives extenders real control over it. Four new lifecycle filters let plugins step into ability execution — short-circuit it entirely (think caching, rate limiting, or maintenance mode), transform input, layer on extra authorization rules, or reshape and even recover results. Two more filters add custom input and output validation on top of JSON Schema, and a new <code>wp_ability_invoked</code> action fires on every invocation — even failed ones — handy for logging and auditing. The core info abilities return more user details, input over the REST API now arrives properly typed, and <code>wp_prepare_json_schema_for_client()</code> strips PHP callbacks and WordPress-only conventions before a schema goes out to REST clients, MCP integrations, or AI tools. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A new <code>public</code> metadata flag rounds it out: declare once that an ability is meant for external clients, and REST, MCP adapters, and future integrations use it as their default — with channel-specific flags still able to override, and permission callbacks still guarding actual execution.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finding the right abilities gets easier too: <code>wp_get_abilities()</code> now accepts arguments to filter registered abilities by category, namespace, or meta — with the same filtering available on the REST endpoint.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Details and code examples in these dev notes:</p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/07/29/new-execution-lifecycle-filters-for-the-abilities-api-in-wordpress-7-1/\">New execution lifecycle filters for the Abilities API</a></li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/07/31/abilities-api-improvements-in-wordpress-7-1/\">Abilities API improvements</a></li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/07/31/json-schema-preparation-for-client-compatibility-in-wordpress-7-1/\">JSON Schema preparation for client compatibility</a></li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/08/04/a-unified-public-exposure-flag-for-abilities-in-wordpress-7-1/\">A unified public exposure flag for Abilities </a></li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/08/05/filtering-registered-abilities-with-wp_get_abilities-in-wordpress-7-1/\">Filtering registered abilities with wp_get_abilities() in WordPress 7.1</a></li>\n</ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"global-styles-and-theme-json\">Global Styles and theme.json </h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"text-shadow-support-for-theme-json\">Text Shadow support for theme.json</h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Theme authors can now define <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/73320\">text shadows directly in theme.json</a> via a new textShadow property under styles.typography. It works everywhere you&#8217;d expect: at the root level, per-block (say, a shadow on paragraphs only), via style variations, and on elements — including pseudo-selectors like a link&#8217;s :hover state. Any valid CSS text-shadow value is accepted, including stacked multi-shadow definitions. Block placeholder text in the editor resets the shadow so it stays readable regardless of what the theme sets.</p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kevinbatdorf-code-block-pro\"><span style=\"display: flex; padding: 10px 0px 0 16px; font-size: 0.8em; width: 100%; text-align: left; background-color: #FDF6E3; font-style: italic; color: #657B83;\"><span>JSON</span></span><span class=\"code-block-pro-copy-button\" style=\"color: #657B83; display: none;\" tabindex=\"0\"><pre class=\"code-block-pro-copy-button-pre\"><textarea class=\"code-block-pro-copy-button-textarea\" readonly=\"readonly\" tabindex=\"-1\">\"styles\": {\n \"typography\": {\n \"textShadow\": \"1px 1px 2px red, 0 0 1em blue, 0 0 0.2em blue;\"\n },\n \"blocks\": {\n \"core/paragraph\": {\n \"typography\": {\n \"textShadow\": \"1px 1px 2px red, 0 0 1em red, 0 0 0.2em red;\"\n }\n }\n },\n \"elements\": {\n \"link\": {\n \":hover\": {\n \"typography\": {\n \"textShadow\": \"none\"\n</textarea></pre><svg fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/2000/svg\"><path class=\"with-check\" d=\"M9 5H7a2 2 0 00-2 2v12a2 2 0 002 2h10a2 2 0 002-2V7a2 2 0 00-2-2h-2M9 5a2 2 0 002 2h2a2 2 0 002-2M9 5a2 2 0 012-2h2a2 2 0 012 2m-6 9l2 2 4-4\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"></path><path class=\"without-check\" d=\"M9 5H7a2 2 0 00-2 2v12a2 2 0 002 2h10a2 2 0 002-2V7a2 2 0 00-2-2h-2M9 5a2 2 0 002 2h2a2 2 0 002-2M9 5a2 2 0 012-2h2a2 2 0 012 2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"></path></svg></span><pre class=\"shiki solarized-light\" style=\"background-color: #FDF6E3;\" tabindex=\"0\"><code><span class=\"line\"><span style=\"color: #2AA198;\">&quot;styles&quot;</span><span style=\"color: #657B83;\">: {</span></span>\n<span class=\"line\"><span style=\"color: #657B83;\"> </span><span style=\"color: #859900;\">&quot;typography&quot;</span><span style=\"color: #657B83;\">: {</span></span>\n<span class=\"line\"><span style=\"color: #657B83;\"> </span><span style=\"color: #859900;\">&quot;textShadow&quot;</span><span style=\"color: #657B83;\">: </span><span style=\"color: #2AA198;\">&quot;1px 1px 2px red, 0 0 1em blue, 0 0 0.2em blue;&quot;</span></span>\n<span class=\"line\"><span style=\"color: #657B83;\"> },</span></span>\n<span class=\"line\"><span style=\"color: #657B83;\"> </span><span style=\"color: #859900;\">&quot;blocks&quot;</span><span style=\"color: #657B83;\">: {</span></span>\n<span class=\"line\"><span style=\"color: #657B83;\"> </span><span style=\"color: #859900;\">&quot;core/paragraph&quot;</span><span style=\"color: #657B83;\">: {</span></span>\n<span class=\"line\"><span style=\"color: #657B83;\"> </span><span style=\"color: #859900;\">&quot;typography&quot;</span><span style=\"color: #657B83;\">: {</span></span>\n<span class=\"line\"><span style=\"color: #657B83;\"> </span><span style=\"color: #859900;\">&quot;textShadow&quot;</span><span style=\"color: #657B83;\">: </span><span style=\"color: #2AA198;\">&quot;1px 1px 2px red, 0 0 1em red, 0 0 0.2em red;&quot;</span></span>\n<span class=\"line\"><span style=\"color: #657B83;\"> }</span></span>\n<span class=\"line\"><span style=\"color: #657B83;\"> }</span></span>\n<span class=\"line\"><span style=\"color: #657B83;\"> },</span></span>\n<span class=\"line\"><span style=\"color: #657B83;\"> </span><span style=\"color: #859900;\">&quot;elements&quot;</span><span style=\"color: #657B83;\">: {</span></span>\n<span class=\"line\"><span style=\"color: #657B83;\"> </span><span style=\"color: #859900;\">&quot;link&quot;</span><span style=\"color: #657B83;\">: {</span></span>\n<span class=\"line\"><span style=\"color: #657B83;\"> </span><span style=\"color: #859900;\">&quot;:hover&quot;</span><span style=\"color: #657B83;\">: {</span></span>\n<span class=\"line\"><span style=\"color: #657B83;\"> </span><span style=\"color: #859900;\">&quot;typography&quot;</span><span style=\"color: #657B83;\">: {</span></span>\n<span class=\"line\"><span style=\"color: #657B83;\"> </span><span style=\"color: #859900;\">&quot;textShadow&quot;</span><span style=\"color: #657B83;\">: </span><span style=\"color: #2AA198;\">&quot;none&quot;</span></span>\n<span class=\"line\"></span></code></pre></div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More details in the Dev Note: <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/07/23/text-shadow-support-in-global-styles/\">Text Shadow Support in Global Styles</a></p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"text-align-block-support-migration\">Text-Align Block Support Migration</h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nine more core blocks (Post Date, Post Excerpt, Post Navigation Link, Post Title, Query Title, Site Tagline, Site Title, Pullquote and Term Name) now use WordPress&#8217;s standardized <a href=\"https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/reference-guides/block-api/block-supports/#align\">text-align system</a>. As part of a larger <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/60763\">migration effort</a> this update ensures consistent alignment controls across the editor and makes these blocks behave predictably alongside newer blocks. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress EndUser are not supposed to see any changes and existing blocks continue to work. Theme designers are now able to style any of these blocks text align via theme.json property. The code example shows how to set the center as the site-wide TextAlign default.

The reason is the two-fold nature of blockVisibility at the block supports level: a bool means don&#8217;t render the block at all, but viewport settings allow users to control visibility per viewport.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The object shape also leaves the door open to extending block visibility to triggers, not only blockVisibility.viewports but others like post type or whatever.

Some blocks—the Button block is the example given—define their outer wrapper and an inner styling target as different elements, and previously there was no way to output a preset variable (like a dimension size) onto that inner element specifically. Theme and plugin authors building design systems now have a way to target the right element per feature, without needing custom CSS to work around the mismatch.</p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"a-minimum-width-option-for-block-dimensions\">A minimum-width option for block dimensions</h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Blocks already supported height, minHeight, and width. What was missing was a way to stop something from shrinking too far—so a layout element wouldn&#8217;t collapse into an unusable sliver on a narrow screen. <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/76949\">Minimum-width closes that gap</a>, mirroring how minimum-height already works.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s opt-in at the block level: the control stays hidden in the inspector until a block explicitly enables it, though it shows by default in the global styles panel. Theme-defined dimension presets carry over automatically, so existing spacing scales just work. The Group block is the first to adopt it.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Youll find more details in the Dev Note <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/07/26/new-block-support-in-wordpress-7-1-minimum-width/\">New Block Support in WordPress 7.1: Minimum Width</a></p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"design-system-theme-provider\">Design System Theme Provider </h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first version of the design systems theme component arrives in WordPress 7.1. It consists of standardized CSS custom properties that follow the W3C Design Tokens specification. You probably won&#8217;t spot the difference right away — the default theme was deliberately built to match existing styles — but this is the machinery that will power the admin color scheme in the Site Editor. You can read more details on the future direction in the <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/07/07/merge-proposal-design-system-theming/\">Merge Proposal: Design System Theming</a> </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Dev Note has more: <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/07/31/design-system-theming-in-wordpress-7-1/\">Design System Theming in WordPress 7.1</a></p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"admin-color-schemes-in-site-editor\">Admin color schemes in Site Editor</h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Site Editor&#8217;s sidebar and interface now respect your chosen WordPress admin color scheme instead of always showing a dark background. This brings visual consistency across the post editor, Site Editor, and admin dashboard. If you&#8217;ve personalized WordPress with a color scheme you prefer, that choice now carries through everywhere you work. <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/78397\">78397</a></p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mix-static-html-with-editable-blocks\">Mix static HTML with editable blocks</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A new innerContent block support lets a block keep static HTML fragments interleaved with editable inner blocks as the canonical source of its own markup. In practice, this means a hand-written HTML structure can have just a piece of it—a paragraph, an image—editable in place, while the rest stays fixed and can&#8217;t be moved, removed, or rearranged.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Custom HTML block is the first adopter: pasting HTML with a block comment delimiter embedded in it (for example, a &lt;!&#8211; wp:paragraph &#8211;&gt; block inside a larger static &lt;div&gt;) makes that inner piece editable directly in the canvas, while the surrounding markup remains locked in place. It&#8217;s a narrow, developer-facing capability for now—the HTML block is the only place it&#8217;s wired up—but it opens the door for custom blocks to offer the same kind of &#8220;mostly static, partly editable&#8221; experience going forward. (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79115\">79115</a>)</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dev note can be found on the Make Core Blog: <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/07/23/editable-blocks-inside-the-custom-html-block/\">Editable blocks inside the Custom HTML block</a> </p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-bindings-for-list-items-and-inner-blocks\">Block Bindings for list-items and inner blocks</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The List Item block has gained Block Bindings support. A List Item&#8217;s content can now be connected to a data source—a custom field, a pattern override, or another registered source—so individual entries in a list can be populated dynamically rather than typed in by hand. The change <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/78947\">registers content as a bindable attribute</a> for core/list-item.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79346\">A related fix rounds out the feature</a>: previously, if a bound List Item also contained a nested sub-list, that nested list was dropped when the binding was rendered. Now a List Item can carry a bound value and a nested list beneath it at the same time. In practice, this means multi-level lists—say, a team member&#8217;s name pulled from a custom field, with a nested list of their current projects underneath—can now be fully dynamic without losing structure.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tracking: <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/77199\">Block Bindings in WordPress 7.1</a> (#77199)</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"connectors-authentication-improvements\">Connectors authentication improvements</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Connectors framework, which manages WordPress&#8217;s connections to external services like AI providers, now supports username and application password authentication as an alternative to API keys. A <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79403\">merged pull request</a> adds a default connector form for this method, along with the underlying authentication type, mirroring the equivalent API already available in WordPress Core.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The change also handles the practical details: saved passwords are masked in the UI and over REST, credentials can be set via constants or environment variables instead of the database, and a <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/12264\">companion Core patch</a> keeps the two in sync. For connectors that require an account login rather than a bare API key, this removes the need for a custom settings screen.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This lands alongside a broader <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/78647\">open proposal for a PHP-side field registry</a> that would let connector authors declare arbitrary settings—model choice, temperature, custom URLs, and more—the way register_setting() works elsewhere in WordPress. That registry isn&#8217;t built yet; the application password work is a first, concrete step (new auth method, not new field types), addressing one of the two gaps the proposal identified rather than the full vision.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tracking: <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/78647\">Connectors: proposal for a PHP-side field registry for connector configuration</a> (#78647)</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"blocks-package-stabilizes-two-experimental-functions\">Blocks package stabilizes two experimental functions</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/79928\">Blocks package stabilizes</a> cloneSanitizedBlock and sanitizeBlockAttributes, dropping their __experimental prefixes now that the functions have been stable in practice for some time. The old __experimental-prefixed names still work but will log a deprecation notice, so plugins or themes importing them directly should switch to the new names.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"post-author-notifications-the-filter-decides\">Post author notifications: the filter decides</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <code>notify_post_author</code> filter <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/08/05/the-notify_post_author-filter-now-has-the-final-say-on-post-author-notifications/\">now has the final say</a>: approval status is checked before the filter runs, so it receives an accurate default and returning <code>true</code> reliably sends a notification — even for unapproved comments. Sites forcing notifications with <code>__return_true</code> should switch to a callback that checks approval, or they&#8217;ll start receiving emails for spam and moderated comments. (<a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/64217\">#64217</a>). More Details can be found in the Dev note <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/08/05/the-notify_post_author-filter-now-has-the-final-say-on-post-author-notifications/\">The notify_post_author filter now has the final say on post author notifications</a></p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"accessible-tooltips-and-toggle-tips-api\">Accessible tooltips and toggle tips API</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress adds a core mechanism for accessible tooltips (<a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/51006\">51006</a>), offering an alternative to the title attribute, which is not available to keyboard and touch users. Two new functions cover different use cases: wp_get_tooltip() exposes an accessible name when a control has focus or hover, such as for icon-only buttons, and wp_get_toggletip() implements a popover disclosure with extended help information that stays open until dismissed. Both generate accessible markup that avoids excess verbosity for screen readers and follows best practices for voice command users.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first toggle tip in core explains the &#8220;Remember Me&#8221; option on the login screen (<a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/55343\">55343</a>). Plugin developers can use the functions for their own settings screens and metaboxes. (<a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/62741\">62741</a>). </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dev Note is now available with the details: <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/08/03/introducing-name-and-informational-tool-tips-in-wordpress-7-1/\">Introducing name and informational tool tips in WordPress 7.1</a></p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46367\" height=\"494\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/gutenbergtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Tooltip-API-wp-7-1-edited.png?resize=742%2C494&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"742\" /></figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"filtering-site-editor-screens\">Filtering Site Editor screens</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Plugin developers can now configure the Site Editor&#8217;s Pages, Templates, Template Parts, and Patterns screens through four new PHP filters — one per screen. Each filter adjusts the DataViews and DataForm components powering these screens: the default view (layout, sort order, visible fields), the layouts available to users, the preconfigured views in the sidebar such as &#8220;All&#8221; or &#8220;Drafts,&#8221; and the fields shown in the Quick Edit form. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This creates a single place of configuration per entity, with more screens — including the editor inspector — planned to draw from the same source in future releases (<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/76544\">#76544</a>). Code examples are in the Dev Note: <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/07/31/filtering-site-editor-screens-in-wordpress-7-1/\">Filtering Site Editor Screens in WordPress 7.1.</a></p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"post-list-table-markup-changed-for-accessibility\">Post list table markup changed for accessibility</h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An eleven-year-old accessibility ticket is resolved: in post list tables, the row header (<code>th scope=\"row\"</code>) moves from the checkbox column to the title column, so screen readers identify each row by the post&#8217;s name rather than by a checkbox that may not even be present. (<a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/32892\">#32892</a>). </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Extenders should check their CSS and JavaScript: selectors like <code>th.check-column</code> or ones expecting the title and row actions inside a <code>td</code> need updating. The dev note <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/08/03/post-list-tables-row-headers-changed/\">Post list tables row headers changed</a> lists the affected patterns, and keeping both <code>td</code> and <code>th</code> selectors preserves compatibility with older WordPress versions. </p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide is-style-wide--8\" />\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A list of <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/tag/dev-notes+7-1/\">all the dev notes can be reviewed from the Make Core blog</a></p>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Wed, 12 Aug 2026 01:51:00 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:18:\"Birgit Pauli-Haack\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:43;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:21:\"\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:73:\"Open Channels FM: Software Lock-In and AI Tools for Modern Web Businesses\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:34:\"https://openchannels.fm/?p=2558504\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:80:\"https://openchannels.fm/software-lock-in-and-ai-tools-for-modern-web-businesses/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:164:\"In this episode, Bob and Adam chat about managing digital workflows, tackling challenges like email overload, CRM usage, and the benefits and downsides of AI tools.\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Tue, 11 Aug 2026 12:33:00 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:8:\"Bob Dunn\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:44;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:21:\"\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:91:\"Open Channels FM: How AI Agents Target Open Source and Why Storage Is the New AI Bottleneck\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:34:\"https://openchannels.fm/?p=2558546\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:98:\"https://openchannels.fm/how-ai-agents-target-open-source-and-why-storage-is-the-new-ai-bottleneck/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:221:\"An AI experiment revealed vulnerabilities as an agent attempted to manipulate an open source maintainer into merging malware, while Nvidia highlighted storage bottlenecks in AI infrastructure.

Release lead <strong>John Blackbourn</strong> lists the fixes, including a pre-auth XSS on the login screen that could lead to PHP code execution, several contributor-level stored XSS issues, and a multisite privilege escalation. Backports reach all supported branches down to 4.7, and 7.1 RC2 carries the fixes too.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To appreciate the huge effort by the security team to get this release out, consider the numbers: until earlier this year, there were 20 to 30 reports per month; now that number has jumped to 450 per month. Both security updates, 7.0.2 and 7.0.3, were backported not only to the two officially supported versions, 6.9 and 7.0, but all the way back to version 4.7. That&#8217;s two dozen major versions that needed updating.

Among other page builders it&#8217;s native to the block editor, with threaded replies, status tracking, and review links that work even in maintenance mode. Version 1.5.2 switches on Suggest mode by default, so reviewers propose wording changes like tracked changes and your team applies them with one click.</p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide is-style-wide--14\" />\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Bas Buis </strong>released <strong><a href=\"https://wpinsight.eu/dynamic-osm-maps-wordpres-gutenberg-plugin/\">Dynamic OSM Maps, </a></strong>a plugin<strong> </strong>that adds interactive maps without Google API keys or recurring fees. The lightweight block runs on OpenStreetMap and Leaflet: in the free version you enter addresses manually, while Pro connects your custom fields — coordinates, addresses, or repeaters — for unlimited markers and popups.

In the team&#8217;s benchmark, raw models writing block markup score 35 to 73; paired with Block Runner, the same models hit 93 to 99.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Readers may remember <strong><a href=\"https://gutenbergtimes.com/block-format-bridge-a-practical-solution-for-ai-generated-content-in-wordpress/\">Chris Huber&#8217;s Block Format Bridge</a> </strong>from a few months back — it tackles the same gap from inside WordPress, converting Markdown and HTML server-side at insert time, while Block Runner works the pipeline side with its validation gate and CI hooks. Two open-source answers to the same question is a good sign the agentic content problem is getting real attention. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A third piece of the puzzle: the official <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/agent-skills\"><strong>WordPress agent-skills repository</strong></a> takes the prevention route, teaching AI coding assistants to write valid block markup in the first place. For a lighter-weight approach, you can also point your AI agent straight at the updated <strong><a href=\"https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/reference-guides/core-blocks/\">Core Blocks Reference</a>,</strong> where each block&#8217;s page now documents its markup, attributes, supports, and allowed nesting.</p>\n\n\n<div class=\"ng-block-c701394b48344e6c wp-block-newsletterglue-container ng-block\" style=\"color: #666666;\" width=\"100%\"><div><div><div class=\"ng-block-vs ng-block-vs-1\" colspan=\"3\" height=\"0\" style=\"height: 0px;\"></div></div><div><div class=\"ng-block-hs ng-block-hs-1\" height=\"0\" style=\"width: 0px;\"></div><div align=\"none\" class=\"ng-block-td\" style=\"font-size: 16px; font-family: Helvetica; line-height: 1.6; font-weight: normal; padding-top: 20px; padding-bottom: 20px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; text-align: none; color: #666666; background-color: #f8f8f8; border-radius: 8px;\"><div class=\"ng-block-25123a1603846d92 wp-block-newsletterglue-text ng-block\" style=\"color: #666666;\" width=\"100%\"><div><div><div align=\"none\" class=\"ng-block-td\" style=\"font-size: 16px; font-family: Helvetica; line-height: 1.6; font-weight: normal; padding-top: 8px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px; text-align: none; color: #666666;\"><p><strong><a href=\"https://gutenbergtimes.com/need-a-zip-from-master/\">Need a plugin .zip from Gutenberg&#8217;s master branch?</a></strong><br />Gutenberg Times provides daily build for testing and review.</p></div></div></div></div>\n\n<div class=\"ng-block-462048175e5c7ef0 wp-block-newsletterglue-image ng-block size-full is-resized\" width=\"100%\"><div><div><div align=\"center\" class=\"ng-block-td\" style=\"padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px;\"><a href=\"https://playground.wordpress.net/?blueprint-url=https://gutenbergtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/playnightly.json\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-42874 ng-image\" height=\"45\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/gutenbergtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/Screenshot-2025-11-15-at-12.06.44.png?resize=196%2C45&#038;ssl=1\" style=\"border-style: none; border-color: transparent;\" width=\"196\" /></a></div></div></div></div>\n\n<div class=\"ng-block-8e7a6da9d7ba4150 wp-block-newsletterglue-text ng-block\" style=\"color: #666666;\" width=\"100%\"><div><div><div align=\"none\" class=\"ng-block-td\" style=\"font-size: 16px; font-family: Helvetica; line-height: 1.6; font-weight: normal; padding-top: 8px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px; text-align: none; color: #666666;\"><p>Now also available via <a href=\"https://playground.wordpress.net/?blueprint-url=https://gutenbergtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/playnightly.json\">WordPress Playground</a>.
