In this episode of Post Status Draft podcast, Cory Miller interviews Marc Benzakein, a member of the MainWP team. Marc explains that MainWP was created to manage affiliate marketing sites and prioritize privacy and security. They discuss MainWP's unique pricing model, offering a free version and a premium pro pack for advanced features. The Cory and Marc talk about the various extensions and plugins offered by MainWP, as well as the importance of reporting for agencies. They also discuss the improvements made to WordPress over the years and the significance of MainWP's ten-year anniversary. Marc recommends joining the MainWP users Facebook group for interactive discussions.Top Takeaways:MainWP's Unique Approach: MainWP stands out by offering a unique approach to managing multiple WordPress sites. Unlike many other solutions, it's not a central dashboard in the sense of a SaaS service. Instead, it allows users to manage their WordPress sites from their own dashboard, emphasizing privacy and security.Pricing and Unlimited Sites: MainWP offers a simple pricing model, which is a significant benefit for agencies and businesses. It starts with a free version that's powerful enough for most users. When you need advanced features, you can purchase the Premium Pro Pack. The unlimited site management feature is a significant advantage for those with multiple sites, as you can manage as many sites as you need without incurring additional costs.Extensions and Reporting: MainWP provides a wide range of extensions that cover key functionalities such as WooCommerce, reporting, collaboration tools, and more. The ability to generate customizable reports is particularly valuable for agencies, as it helps in demonstrating the value of their services to clients.

The lines between the open-source WordPress.org and its commercial counterpart WordPress.com (owned by Automattic) have long been blurred and confusing. So much that commercial offerings from Automattic's suite of tools were integrated into the official WordPress mobile app.That's about to change. As Sarah Gooding of WP Tavern reports, features that rely on Automattic products are moving to the latest version of the free Jetpack app.This means that users will need the Jetpack app to access site statistics, comment notifications, and the Reader content discovery feature. https://youtu.be/i8t1KRbsvzQ In a blog post announcing the change, WordPress.com says that site data can be automatically migrated from the WordPress app to Jetpack, provided you have the latest version of both installed on your device. Meanwhile, the WordPress app will become more focused on the core functionality of the content management system.Links You Shouldn't MissMailchimp have disclosed a recent security breach - and an account belonging to Automattic appears to have been affected. WooCommerce has sent an email informing users of the situation, but says that “No payment data, passwords, or other sensitive security information is part of this breach.”The WordPress Theme Directory is in the early stages of a refresh. A post on the Make WordPress blog shared mockup images, with the design looking similar to the recently upgraded News and Showcase sections. Stated goals include improved usability, along with implementing the recently-introduced theme taxonomies.If you've ever wanted to contribute to WordPress core, here's your chance. WordPress 6.2 is tentatively scheduled to become available on March 28, 2023. The project is currently looking for volunteers to lead various aspects of the release and become a part of the “squad”.Artwork generated via artificial intelligence is generating lots of buzz - and a high-profile lawsuit. Getty Images is suing Stability AI, maker of the Stability Diffusion artwork generator, for copyright infringement. The outcome could alter the way these tools scrape content, not to mention a user's ability to safely publish AI images.From the Grab BagNow it's time to take a look at some other interesting topics shared by our contributors.MasterWP's Rob Howard and Allie Nimmons recapped the annual State of the Word event and looked at the biggest challenges facing WordPress.WordPress theme and plugin sales platform Freemius have posted a year in review that highlights interesting notes from 2022, as well as plans for 2023.WordPress developer Brian Coords wonders why creating an email newsletter within WordPress is still so hard.LearnDash product manager Jack Kitterhing opines that it's time to fix the WordPress user experience.Brin Wilson recently published a guide to placing ads on Blaze, the new advertising platform for WordPess.com and Tumblr.In an effort to support its authors and publications, online publishing platform Medium has created its own Mastodon instance.2023 will see six new privacy laws take effect in North America.

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.

What's a web hosting provider's role in content moderation? WordPress co-founder and Automattic CEO Matt Mullenweg recently weighed in. Mullenweg was a guest on The Verge's Decoder podcast and discussed the issue as it relates to WordPress VIP hosting. Specifically, he commented on a controversial story that was published in 2020 on the New York Post website. The Post is a WordPress VIP client. The story covered material allegedly recovered from a laptop owned by Hunter Biden, the son of U.S. President Joe Biden. Debate over the origins of the material saw both Facebook and Twitter temporarily restrict links to the story. Mullenweg says Automattic reviewed the matter but ultimately decided not to take action. Automattic has policies in place for content moderation, and Mullenweg referred to them as a “starting point” for looking deeper into a specific case. Links You Shouldn't Miss Theme developer ILOVEWP published a report on the most popular WordPress plugins released in 2022. The report uses publicly available data for plugins in the official WordPress.org repository. In all, nearly 4,200 plugins have been added so far this year. Out of that, only 7 have achieved at least 50,000 active installations. Did publishing platform Substack use unattributed code from open source competitor Ghost? Ghost's founder and CEO John O'Nolan makes a case in a recent Twitter thread. In a response thread, Substack co-founder and CEO Chris Best says the whole thing is a misunderstanding. Rather, Substack's custom theming API is merely compatible with Ghost. There's a lot here to digest. Therefore, reading the threads from both parties is recommended to see where each side is coming from. What will WordPress freelancers face in 2023? The WP Minute's Eric Karkovack offered some predictions. Upgrading to PHP 8 and navigating an uncertain economic environment are among them. Development firm Awesome Motive has introduced SendLayer, an email delivery service aimed at WordPress website owners. It requires a free API key and works in conjunction with the WP Mail SMTP plugin. Paid plans are being offered.

It's a familiar refrain: the WordPress project needs contributors. But getting involved can be difficult for individuals who aren't corporately sponsored. A new nonprofit organization is hoping to address this ongoing challenge. The WP Community Collective looks to offer community-funded fellowships to financially support contributions to WordPress. Founded by Sé Reed, Katie Adams Farrell, and Courtney Robertson, the WPCC seeks both individual donations and corporate partnerships. In its official announcement, the organization vows to promote transparency, community representation, and governance. Its first initiative involves the creation of an Accessibility Fellowship. The WPCC says it plans to create a formalized organizational structure within the next year. Next up (listen to the podcast for more): Michelle Frechette with the Community Minute!

ChatGPT, a chatbot powered by artificial intelligence, has surpassed 1 million users. The app claims the ability to answer follow-up questions and take instructions from humans. And, as WP Tavern reports, it also generated a WordPress plugin on demand. Web developer Johnathon Williams shared a recording of the process in action. A proposed bill before the United States Congress has Facebook's parent company Meta threatening to pull news-oriented content from its platform. The bill would allow news outlets to collectively bargain with social media companies for a larger percentage of ad revenue. A similar bill was passed last year in Australia. Another WordPress-related acquisition is in the books. Development firm Strategy11 has acquired the WP Tasty and Nutrifox suite of plugins.
