It's all about that massive feature launch or the illusion of getting more for your money.I can understand the appeal. Having the latest and greatest product gives us bragging rights – and maybe more productivity. That's why a new iPhone comes out every few months. Who wouldn't want that?Well, bigger isn't always better. I believe that theory applies to the evolution of WordPress. Big changes can be clumsy and require us to adapt. That can temporarily negate any advantage we're supposedly gaining.Think about the switch from the Classic Editor to Gutenberg in WordPress 5.0. Everyone from users to developers to product makers felt the impact. You could cut the anxiety with a chainsaw. Not to mention that it took years for many of us to adapt. Things are great now, but still.It does offer a renewed appreciation for the smaller (AKA ‘boring') improvements, though. The little things that enhance accessibility, performance, security, and stability.That's what professionals need. They help us get more done and provide peace of mind.Let's discuss how these little things can add up and why we may see them more often. ★ Support this podcast ★

Results from the WordPress 2022 Annual Survey have been released. WordPress Executive Director Josepha Haden Chomphosy notes that this was a slimmed down version of the survey. It featured 29 questions - as opposed to nearly 100 in past editions. This led to a 26% increase in completion rate. However, there was also a 56% decrease in overall submissions.Among the highlights of this year's results:53% of respondents say they've used the Block Editor. Meanwhile, the Classic Editor saw a 25% drop in use.76% of respondents install WordPress themselves.68% agree or strongly agree that WordPress is as good as, or better than, other site builders and CMSs.Ease of use, flexibility, and plugin options were rated as the top reasons to use WordPress.The most frustrating aspects of WordPress were Gutenberg's unfinished status and the difficulty of learning full site editing.For more in-depth data, a slideshow is available for download.Links You Shouldn't MissWordPress turns 20 years old this month.

Matt Mullenweg held court at the annual State of the Word event on December 15. Several topics were touched, including the use of Gutenberg outside of WordPress, the return of in-person Meetups and WordCamps, and the announcement of a Community Summit set to take place in 2023. Mullenweg also detailed a change to the WordPress.org Plugin and Theme repositories. Taxonomies have been added that allow authors to categorize their products as “commercial” or “community” - among other labels. The goal is to help users better understand the purpose of and level of support provided by theme and plugin authors. The feature is opt-in, and it's already being put to use by some products. As usual, the event was packed with insight and information. The WP Minute has a handy summary of key moments, along with a full transcript. It's accompanied by a video highlight package that condenses the entire event down to just over 16 minutes. You'll also want to check out State of the Word recaps from both Sarah Gooding at WP Tavern and Courtney Robertson at GoDaddy. Links You Shouldn't Miss There's a new competitor in the WordPress email newsletter space. WordPress.com Newsletter was announced this week. The feature allows users to publish new posts as email newsletters, collect subscribers, and design a template. Monetization features are in the works with details forthcoming. Meanwhile, our own Matt Medeiros offers his analysis of the product via a new video. The subject of WordPress nostalgia seems to be popular these days. The WP Minute's Eric Karkovack looks at why that is and how it could help us shape the future of the community. Security firm Wordfence has released a free vulnerability database API. Hosting companies, security researchers, and individual users will have access to a continuously updated repository of vulnerabilities. The company hopes that the community “will turn this data into free and commercial security products that will improve the security of the WordPress community.” What does the future look like for ClassicPress? The open source project is a fork of WordPress that retains the TinyMCE-based Classic Editor. A new poll asks users whether the content management system should be “re-forked” to WordPress 6.0 or continue along its current path, based on WordPress 4.9.

✏️ Suscribirse https://youtu.be/gJJIwD0_1_U ¿Tiene sentido este debate acerca de qué editor es mejor?¿Tiene sentido flamear a alguien porque le guste una de las dos herramientas? Ya te adelantamos que no. No obstante, hablaremos de las ventajas y el hueco puede tener cada una en nuestros proyectos. ¿Por qué este debate? WordPress evolucionó su editor de contenidos en numerosas ocasiones, pero ha sido a raíz de su cambio como editor de bloques cuando ha surgido una gran cantidad de usuarios reticentes al cambio. El plugin Classic editor de WordPress tiene 5 millones de instalaciones y está en el TOP del repositorio de WordPress. https://es.wordpress.org/plugins/classic-editor/ Las redes sociales reflejan en muchas ocasiones una división entre usuarios que prefieren una u otra herramienta. En este episodio hablaremos sobre la división de usuarios que ha supuesto la evolución del editor de contenido de WordPress. Cabe mencionar que el nuevo editor, Gutenberg, basado en bloques, también tiene un gran impacto en cuanto al desarrollo de temas y sus plantillas. Pero en este episodio nos vamos a centrar en el debate en torno Gutenberg como EDITOR DE CONTENIDO. Trataremos de analizar qué ha provocado todo esto y en qué ocasiones puede tener sentido no usar el nuevo editor. Pero para ello, primero debemos entender cómo ha evolucionado todo y de qué se trata este editor de bloques. Contexto e historia WordPress dispone de una herramienta para editar el contenido de las publicaciones. Esta herramienta ha ido evolucionando con el tiempo. 2003 > https://cdn4.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/wordpress71.png 2005 > https://cdn4.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/wp-2-0.jpg (ENTRA WYSIWYG) 2008 > https://cdn3.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/wp-2-5-write.png (EDITOR VISUAL Y GALERÍAS) 2009 > https://cdn2.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/wp-2-9-imageediting.jpg (EDITOR DE IMÁGENES PARA CORTAR, GIRAR, ETC..) 2011 > https://cdn4.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/wp-3-1.jpg (EDITOR DE LINKS MEJORADO) 2013 > https://cdn4.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/wp-3-8-admin-ui.jpg (EDITOR RESPONSIVE) 2016 > https://cdn2.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/inlinelinkediting.gif (MÁS MEJORAS Y ATAJOS) 2019 > LLEGA GUTENBERG El contenido NO ES SOLO TEXTO. Durante todo este tiempo, no solo el editor fue evolucionando. También lo hacían las páginas web. Y los propios usuarios de WordPress. Pasamos de CMS PARA BLOGS > a CMS PARA WEBS CORPORATIVAS > a CMS PARA CUALQUIER COSA Y por tanto, ese editor, que para muchos era más que suficiente, pasó a ser insuficiente a la hora de insertar ciertos contenidos "avanzados". Textos, tablas, timelines, grandes bloques hero, columnas... Si querías disponer de un contenido atractivo con un alto grado de maquetación y diseño, no había más remedio que recurrir a los "builders". Desde Visual Composer, pasando por BeaverBuilder, Elementor... Los grandes cambios que impone Gutenberg A nivel de interfaz hay un gran cambio. Todo se gestiona a través de algo llamado "BLOQUES". Pero todo son ventajas en realidad. Mucha gente ni se digna a probarlo, solo por haberle visto "la pinta". Ni si quiera saben que los bloques se crean automáticamente solo pulsando enter y que el flujo de trabajo de una persona que solo lo utilizaba para redactar párrafos en realidad... es el mismo. Es cierto que si tu única tarea dentro del editor es escribir texto, todo lo demás te puede "sobrar" y quizá hasta pueda llegar a molestarte tener tantas opciones que NO VAS A UTILIZAR. Esto es comprensible. Pero NINGUNA de las funciones clásicas es PEOR en Gutenberg. Al revés. A nivel personal solo le achacamos una cosa negativa. Hace pensar que puedes hacer de todo. Que tienes la capacidad de maquetar todo con la facilidad de cualquier builder moderno. Pero está muy por detrás. Es un SUPEREDITOR de contenido básico. Pero no llega al nivel de MAQUETADOR DE CONTENIDO (lo hemos probado en YouTube de NWP). Esto puede confundir a algunos usuarios que no hayan seguido la evolución del editor de contenido y se esperen un "Elementor" o un "Bricks". ¿A quién beneficia el editor clásico? Así que, llegados a este punto. ¿A quién beneficia objetivamente el uso del editor clásico por encima del de bloques? Primero, a todos aquellos cuya tarea en el editor vaya a ser la redacción de párrafos y formateo de texto, pura y llanamente. En el momento en el que quieras maquetar cualquier otro elemento como tablas, secciones, columnas o imágenes... Estarás en clara desventaja. Pero si solo te vas a dedicar a escribir texto (y poner alguna imagen "como quede"), entendemos que pueda ser la opción más limpia y más... minimalista para tus necesidades. ¿A quién beneficia el editor de bloques? A todos los que quieran editar un contenido más avanzado. Pero al mismo tiempo, siendo conscientes de sus limitaciones y tratándolo como lo que es. Un editor de contenido y no un maquetador como dios manda. Algunas consideraciones importantes (5 MINS) Hay que tener en cuenta que el concepto de los bloques va más allá del editor de contenido. El propio desarrollo de temas de WordPress está siendo afectado por nuevas formas de crear cada componente, nuevos tipos de plantilla ahora en HTML... Este tema, creemos que sí puede ser digno de un debate con todo el sentido del mundo... pero eso será en otro episodio.

When WordPress 5.0 and the block editor came out, though it was off to a rocky start, the value proposition was clear: THIS is a better experience for content creation than the Classic Editor. After all, that experience was largely unchanged for 15 years. But now that 5.9 is out, we need to ask: is the value proposition for Full Site Editing as clear? Brought to you by GoDaddy Pro.

In the News The release of WordPress 5.9 is coming this month. There are many performance enhancements that will be part of this release. In addition to editor and front-end performance enhancements, lazy loading images changed, resulting in a 30% faster page load - in some cases. Go over to make.wordpress.org to check out the numbers. Sarah Gooding, over at the WPTavern covers the new API in Gutenberg that will be released with WordPress 5.9. This new API will allow you to lock individual blocks and override template locking which had been the only way to lock blocks. Events As WordPress 5.9 comes out at the end of January, there is a Mega Meetup to provide information that WordPress professionals should know about. You can sign up for the meetup which will be held Thursday, January 20, 2022. Look for some great exploration of Blocks and what to expect around design changes. WooCommerce Updates Heads up. Starting with version WooCommerce 6.5 (scheduled for release in May) WooCommerce will require PHP 7.2 or newer to work. PHP is rapidly changing and it was determined that PHP 7.2 was the version that still had a significant number of WooCommerce active installs running. If you have an older version of PHP running it will still work, but you will not be able to continue to update this plugin. You also risk the usual performance and security issues by running older versions. From Our Contributors and Producers There are several more 2021 “year in reviews” from the WordPress community. Brad Touesnard from Delicious Brains shares a nice post about how the company's growth has tripled and how the team is growing. He also covers the ACF (Advanced Custom Fields) acquisition along with other updates. The article is worth a few minutes of your time to read. WPCloudDeploy shares the blogpost of how they had 10 versions of their product released in one year. They rolled out more than 50 new and improved features last year. This is a pretty impressive post representing a lot of work from that company. There is also an update from Rich Tabor. He announced that WP Experts has acquired his Login Designer plugin. Did you know that NFT marketplace aggregator Flip, co-founded by UpOnly podcast host Brian Krogsgard (yes the guy from Post Status), has raised $6.5 million in a seed funding round? What is Flip you ask? Flip aggregates NFT marketplaces under one roof on its platform, allowing users to easily navigate through available NFTs to buy. Ever wonder why competing with Google search is next to impossible? Well, a new search engine needs an index of the web. And many sites don't welcome any web crawler that isn't Google or Bing. This article from Fast Company covers the challenges of competing with search that crawls sites with automated software. Brave, which is a privacy-focused web browser, had seen continued growth in 2021 with 50 million users. The Brave browser does not track your searches or share any identifying data with third-party companies. If you would like to break free from the big companies, you can give them a try. WordPress News is hard to turn into a real business. This week over on the Matt Report Rae Morey shares how she built The Repository newsletter with her background as a journalist. Two Great Segments: The Learn Minute with Hauwa Abashiya Transcript Happy New Year. It's Hauwa Abashiya here from the Make training team here with your Learn WordPress minute. If you're not familiar with Learn WordPress, it is a learning resource on .org for anyone who wants to learn how to use, build for and contribute to WordPress. The Make training team wrangles all the content on Learn and we use the Sprint methodology to determine what we are working on and our timeframe for delivery. This month we are focused on creating content for 5.9 and need your help. We have identified a number of existing lesson plans and workshops that need to be revised, as well as the new features coming to 5.9 that need a corresponding lesson plan and workshop. For the full list see our January 2022 Sprint post on .org, links provided in the show notes. If you're interested in helping create content, leave a comment on the post or drop us a message in the training team Slack channel. We also have some great workshop videos that you can follow. As a reminder, workshops are practical on-demand videos that show viewers what they can do with WordPress. Lesson plans are guides for facilitators to use while presenting at events or within educational environments. Visit make.wordpress.org/training for more information and check out learn.wordpress.org The WooMinute with Bob Dunn Transcript Hey, it's BobWP from Do the Woo, here's your 1-minute of WooCommerce The innovation we see happening with WordPress will reflect directly on WooCommerce. When I asked Matt Mullenweg at the State of the Word to give me some Woo, he said "in 2022, the thing I'm most excited about is embracing Gutenberg and the block interfaces for everything with Woo. Woo still has some ways of doing things which are more tied to the Classic Editor, or shortcodes, or other ways of creating pages. There are some plugins and experiments around Gutenberg and blocks. And I think that I would love if Woo was one of the best plugins in the world for embracing how to use Gutenberg. Then back in September when we had WooCommerce CEO Paul Maiorana on the podcast, he added his insights, "because as we're able to see things like full site editing coming around the corner for WordPress itself, and as we are able to take some of the lessons learned from that and apply them to WooCommerce as a whole, we're going to be able to utilize the lessons learned in just the FSE experience in general, for making that experience great for store owners earlier." So I can safely say, hang on to your hats with Woo in 2022 as I'm sure we are going to see some very cool things playing out. And you can find these conversations and moreover on DotheWoo.io.

I've been seeing a troubling trend of people trashing the block editor because they didn't like it early on. But even more so, they say it's worse for users, which is patently untrue.

In the News You’re in luck for 2021 if you are dragging your feet using Gutenberg and the block editor. The Classic Editor Plugin was published in 2018 to help with the transition to the block editor with support through the end of 2021. Now the Classic Editor plugin will be supported through the end of 2022. It may be a good time to re-think your transition plans on your websites. Frontity has been acquired by Automattic. Even though Frontity is a React framework, it doesn't mean that they are going to push React to the WordPress frontend. Matt Mullenweg wrote in his recent blog post that there's still a lot that: We can learn from decoupled systems and we can incorporate those learnings into WordPress itself as we emphasize performance, flexibility, and ease of development.I look forward to Frontity joining WordPress and channeling their efforts into the WordPress APIs, documentation, and Gutenberg's full-site editing tools.” Sarah Gooding over on WPTavern updated the community about the progress on the block-based Navigation editor screen. The screen got a status check last week as part of a Hallway Hangout meeting. Once the Navigation screen is available by default in the Gutenberg plugin, the team working on the feature will be able to gather more feedback. Matias Ventura provides a quick overview of the main areas and features currently underway for 5.9 in Gutenberg. Some are in more advanced stages than others, but together they paint a picture of what this will look like. Some News Around Security On August 13, 2021, the Wordfence Threat Intelligence team responsibly disclosed two vulnerabilities in Nested Pages, a WordPress plugin installed on over 80,000 sites that provides drag and drop functionality to manage your page structure and post ordering. If you have any friends or colleagues using this plugin, please share this announcement with them and encourage them to update to version 3.1.16 (or newer) of Nested Pages as soon as possible. On August 3, 2021, the same team initiated the disclosure process for two vulnerabilities discovered in the Gutenberg Template Library & Redux Framework plugin, which is installed on over 1 million WordPress sites. One vulnerability allowed users with lower permissions, such as contributors, to install and activate arbitrary plugins and delete any post or page via the REST API. A second vulnerability allowed unauthenticated attackers to access potentially sensitive information about a site's configuration. Please go ahead and update that as soon as possible.

A lot of WordPress News this Week After months of talking about the release of WordPress 5.8, it has finally arrived. Matt Mullenweg announced that “Tatum”, our latest and greatest release now available for download or update is in your dashboard. This release is named in honor of Art Tatum, the legendary Jazz pianist. But if you need a thorough review, I recommend you head over to Kinsta’s blog where Carlo Daniele had time to write an amazing summary that covers all the new features of WordPress 5.8. His full-featured post includes a table of contents along with the videos discussing what has been worked on and added in the latest few months. It is a great source for all of the new things in WordPress 5.8. Speaking of great sources… Birgit Pauli-Haack covers more WordPress Themes for Full-Site Editing along with their Resources in the latest post on Gutenberg Times. Birgit says: “Just remember that themes may be wonky at times until developers have had time to make updates.” Bob over at Do-the-Woo covers the latest WooCommerce updates. These updates cover the Action Scheduler 3.2.0 and 3.2.1. The AS library from 3.1.6 to 3.2.1 has been updated in this latest release. Sounds fascinating. This release comes with several fixes and an additional database index to speed up performance for sites with heavy traffic. We all love that. Lastly, Sarah over at WPTavern reports that Tiny, the makers of TinyMCE, have acquired Setka, a content design and editing platform, for an undisclosed amount of money. TinyMCE is used by millions of WordPress users, most visibly in the Classic Editor plugin as well as the Advanced Editor Tools plugin, previously known as TinyMCE Advanced. Advanced Editor Tools adds a “Classic Paragraph” block to the block editor that gives access to the TinyMCE editor with configurable rows and buttons. It provides a stepping stone for those who are not quite ready to switch to the block editor. Events This is the week folks. Wordfest Live starts on July 23, 2021. It’s the 24-hour festival of WordPress. From the Grabbag Changes are being made to meetup.com, the platform where local WordPress events are based. WPCalendar.io will no longer receive any more updates. If you think we can’t keep up with Acquisitions, join the club. Quite literally, Cory Miller over at Post Status has an Acquisition Tracker and it shows you when a WordPress business was sold and who bought it. Over on the Matt Report, my latest interview is with Dave Rodenbaugh. He shares he was never even working on a part-time basis with his business Recapture.io. In fact, the way he put it, he was only devoting 10% of his energy into the business while being contracted at a corporate gig he recently had the chance to exit from. Go check out the latest episode.

Matt Report - A WordPress podcast for digital business owners
Matt Medeiros continues Season 8 with his interview with Birgit Pauli-Haack. Birgit is a web developer in Naples, Florida and started as a freelancer in 2002. She became a developer because there was not enough software to do what she wanted to on the web. She uses WordPress and Cold Fusion on a few sites in her agency. In addition to working with non-profits, small business and government agencies, she is very instrumental in the WordPress Community. Listen to the episode Matt Report - A WordPress podcast for digital business owners Birgit Pauli-Haack on Serving Nonprofit & Community Play Episode Pause Episode Mute/Unmute Episode Rewind 10 Seconds 1x Fast Forward 30 seconds 00:00 / 00:50:24 Subscribe Share RSS Feed Share Link Embed Download file | Play in new window | Duration: 00:50:24 WordPress – The Non-profit space Matt – The world of non-profits has changed. There initially was not a lot of money in non-profits but they have developed over the years. (4:00) Birgit – There are a lot of donations being taken online so websites need to be able to handle that. Non-profits that adopted technology are the ones that are hiring consultants. If the leadership of the non-profit sees the perceived value of having a strong website you will be more successful building and maintaining sites for them. If you are working with a non-profit, you must be able to present before the board and be able to manage many people that represent that board. (4:37) Changes in WordPress Matt – Page builders have changed the adoption and price point for non-profits. Page builders have become a good entry point for web developers. (9:41) Birgit – The release of page builder software has changed the conversation with the client, as they can now see what the software can do. WordPress was still difficult to understand for a non-technical person that needed to create content or newsletters. Birgit is a supporter of Gutenberg and the transition that it is allowing the non-profit client to create content. Once Gutenberg was released as a plugin in 2017, she wanted to learn as much as possible about it. (10:40) Matt – We need something in the core of WordPress that users can just use without a huge learning curve. Many new brick and mortar stores are just going to Squarespace or WIX because of the ease of it. (14:41) Birgit – The page builder business is going to be a very interesting transition, especially with hotels or restaurants. There will be layout standards that start to come through for different businesses. When innovation is adopted by a community the early adopters push the boundaries (as is the case with Gutenberg). The innovators are typically 15% of the user base. The rest of the community comes along later with different levels of participation. (16:33) Matt – Reviewed the 2019 core theme that comes with core WordPress 5.0. He waited before he weighed in on the theme. There were still some struggles to create core things and move blocks around. (21:46) Birgit – With early releases of the plugin, there were things that did not work or “broke”. If your agency or business has many websites that you maintain, keep the Classic Editor because there are many things that are not ready in core. It takes time to teach clients how to use Gutenberg if they are heavy editing users. (22:41) Matt – The decision making to release Gutenberg into core upset some of the WordPress community. There was not great communication and there was a lack of clarity about where WordPress is going. (28:23) Birgit – There did not seem to be a strategy around the communication from Matt Mullenweg. Gutenberg Times was an attempt to get out in front of the software changes. There is not mainstream communication for the open source software but it looks like it is being worked on. Communication can always be better especially when change is occurring. (33:57) Matt – This Gutenberg editor release is being treated as a product within a product. It might be helpful to have a product person to communicate what is happening. (34:17) Birgit – it seems as though the Gutenberg editor is not being adopted by the enterprise yet. (35:50) It is important to remember that there are people behind the changes and it is wise to remember that when posting something publically. WordPress leadership has much to deal with while keeping the focus of the team.

WordPress Resource: Your Website Engineer with Dustin Hartzler
In today’s episode we look at changing our posts from a Classic Editor block to Gutenberg blocks in WordPress 5.0.
WordPress Resource: Your Website Engineer with Dustin Hartzler
In today’s episode we talk about the two editors available in WordPress 5.0: Gutenberg and the Classic Editor.
People vastly underestimate the technology they will or won't use. I mean I thought Twitter was dumb when I first saw it. Now, I spend plenty of time there. It's just how it goes. WordPress Gutenberg is no different. All these people saying they'll never use it WILL be soon enough. But, if you can spot these little incongruencies, you can predict where things are headed and get ahead of the curve. Create products and services. Out-compete those who drag their feet. And, position yourself for when everybody DOES finally show up. I think Gutenberg is one of those things.
In this episode I’ll show you how to install the Classic Editor plugin in WordPress 5.x.

This post will be part one of a series on social media changes from 2018. This doesn't JUST include social media, but also touches on Amazon and blogging and more. It can be SO hard to keep up with all of the changes that happen on the internet in a WEEK, much less a year. But I want to go over some of the big news and social media updates that you need to know. Most of these took place in 2018, while some were a little earlier and some are currently rolling out or have been announced, but haven't taken effect! HOW TO KEEP UP WITH SOCIAL MEDIA As a tip to start, if you find yourself overwhelmed trying to keep up, the best thing you can do is follow people and sites that do a good job of keeping you apprised. Here are a few sites or emails that will help you keep up: The Quick Fix - my weekly email with news, tips, resources, and more The Sell More Books Show - podcast with news related to writing & publishing (especially indie publishing) The Digital Reader - more writing and publishing news, updated daily For tech and social news, I check Mashable, The Verge, Product Hunt, and Social Media Today. As far as experts, I follow Madalyn Sklar for Twitter updates, Jenn Hermann for Instagram, and Sarah Ahl for Pinterest. Let's dive into those links!! FACEBOOK CHANGES I'd sum these up by saying privacy and groups. Because of the Cambridge Analytica issue, FB has made some changes with regards to privacy that affect ads. Business manager required for custom audiences - If you have targeted by uploading your email list to Facebook (yep, you can do that), this will now need to happen in the Business Manager. Which is its own special circle of heal. MORE HERE. New square images for ads - Um, yes please! Older versions of FB may not show these, but Facebook let me know in my ads manager that I can choose a bigger image. Can't wait for this! Posting within groups as your PAGE - So we're clear, your PAGE is what people can LIKE, as opposed to your personal profile, where you ad friends. FB is rolling out the option to post as your page, but the group has to okay it. I haven't had this rolled out to my groups yet. READ MORE. Groups may have mentors and mentees - This is a weird one and I've seen it happening more in a testing way, with it being added by FB to a group without the owner's permission. Members can sign up to mentor or be mentored. I feel like this is a disaster of smarminess waiting to happen where people in a group trying to get clients will sign up as mentors and try to "help." READ MORE Groups can now be paid - This is another rolling out change where you can have a paid Facebook group. This has previously been against terms of service, so all those courses with a bonus group had to be careful how they worded that to avoid violating TOS. READ MORE Groups can have learning units - Going hand-in-hand with paid groups, this would make a group function as a kind of course. READ MORE INSTAGRAM CHANGES New app for IGTV - Instagram added Instagram TV, which allows you to broadcast within the separate app for up to an hour. Word on the street is people are underwhelmed. READ MORE I big-time love Kami Huyse and she has a fabulous show on IGTV. Here's a link to the show notes, which have updates on social media as well! CHECK IT HERE! New shopping features - I don't know how this will trickle down to people like you and me, but this is fun. MORE HERE New quick replies to DMs - If you want to reply fast, you can do this much more easily now. Nametags - This works like Snapchat ghost codes, from what I gather. Because Instagram has copied everything else... IGTV previews can be shared in Instastories - Oh, and Instastories can be longer now too. READ ABOUT THE 2018 UPDATES TO INSTAGRAM HERE! BLOGGING CHANGES Gutenberg is coming to Wordpress - This is the biggest change to Wordpress since...uh...forever? You might want to stick with the Classic Editor til they fix some bugs. READ WHY HERE EMAIL CHANGES GDPR happened and we didn't die - I would love to never talk about this again. But the privacy policy enacted in the EU had worldwide repercussions. Mostly things are fine. You can read my posts about it HERE and HERE. AMAZON CHANGES Createspace morphed into KDP Print - If you used the print on demand company Amazon owned, it's now gone and merged into the same dashboard with your ebooks in KDP. This will in the long run be great, but it's been a bumpy transition. Affiliates can share their influencer page link in email - Amazon doesn't allow sharing affiliate links in email. But they did update (maybe in 2017) to allow Amazon Influencers to share a link to their page in email. This is a separate program within the affiliate program. APPLY HERE. Curious? Check out my influencer page! All those links are affiliate links, to provide disclosure. TWITTER CHANGES Maybe we'll finally get to edit tweets - This has been the most-called-for feature by users and Twitter is "thinking about it." I'll believe it when I see it. READ MORE Have live audio - This is a neat feature that works on the app or in Periscope. It's like a live video...but audio. READ MORE. Twitter will let you use a chronological timeline - Go under your settings & privacy and uncheck the "see best stories first" thing. Testing new desktop features - You can check out screenshots HERE. GOOGLE PLUS CHANGES Google Plus is dead - If you've still been using this, you can chill and have one less thing to do. READ MORE.
The episode is sponsored by Plesk and Freemius. This week I welcomed back Jean Galea to the podcast as we found some time to discuss the plugins we're using at the moment, and why we chose them. Although Jean and I work together, we rarely find the time to have discussions such as these since we tend to focus on different projects, so this was an opportunity to see what each of us was doing. At the same time, we're hoping to give you a better idea of how we run our websites and perhaps point out some plugins you weren't aware of before. Throughout our discussion we focus on plugins and a few SAAS tools that have integrations with WordPress. Since the WordPress sites that we run are focused around either content (WP Mayor) or e-commerce (WP RSS Aggregator, EDD Bookings), our choice of plugins is also centred around these markets. Even if your sites are not focused around heavy content or e-commerce specifically, there are some great little nuggets in there for you. I won't list down all the plugins we use here, but here is a quick overview of the main ones we have used on all or most of our sites over the years. Content & Subscriber Management Nelio Content to manage our posts more easily Replyable to be able to reply to post comments through email, without having to log in to the dashboard Akismet or Anti-Spam to prevent spam comments from, well, spamming your site MailPoet to send out newsletters and to reach out to subscribers Optin Monster to run various campaigns on our sites to attract subscribers SEO Framework or Yoast SEO to ensure that our content is as optimized as possible Forms Ninja Forms as our main go-to plugin, having been introduced to it by James Laws, the other founder of this podcast Gravity Forms is an established solution we used before and still do on some sites E-Commerce & Marketing Easy Digital Downloads and its extensions WooCommerce and its extensions Official extensions Trusted 3rd-party WooCommerce extension stores Analytics Monster Insights, a great tool from Syed Balkhi Hotjar Connecticator to connect to the Hotjar service for heatmaps, site visitor recordings, polls and more Social Media SNAP by NextScripts Affiliate Management AffiliateWP to run our affiliate programs on-site Thirsty Affiliates to store affiliate links from other programs and cloak them Impact and Shareasale as alternative ways to run an affiliate program when you need a more professional solution Backups & Security BlogVault to manage our site security and backups in a simple and reliable way ManageWP to manage multiple sites from one dashboard, including running updates WP Security Audit Log to track how multiple users are using our websites, which is especially useful when you have multiple authors or editors Others Advanced Custom Fields to be able to customise our websites with custom fields where we need them Elementor as our page builder of choice when we need to create a quick website for which a default theme won't do the job Classic Editor; given that we are unsure of what Gutenberg will bring with it in WordPress 5.0, this is a safety net of sorts PerfMatters, probably the most important of all, to control on which pages certain plugins run, which is essential if you have certain functionality that you only need on a few pages (giving you better performance site-wide) We mention a few more plugins throughout the show that meet certain other needs, so be sure to listen in and learn more. Are there any other plugins which you use religiously on your WordPress sites? Let us know in the comments to give them the exposure they deserve.
