Síguenos en: Pue eso, un resumen de lo que está pasando con WP Engine y WordPress ¿Qué tal la semana? Semana esther Encontrado código que forzaba mostrar warning php de un plugin Nueva web para cliente Semana Nahuai Terminando de sincronizar las webs y aplicar descuentos de WooCommerce dependiendo de la antigüedad en la otra web. Creación canal de sostenibilidad en el Slack de WP España. Contenido Nahuai Novedades Disclaimer: No somos expertos legales ni pretendemos hacer un repaso exhaustivo sobre todo lo ocurrido. La idea es compartir lo que se sabe de forma ordenada para que cada uno saque sus conclusiones. WP Engine infringe la licencia de marca registrada y Automattic le exige pagar por usarla o contribuir al proyecto de WordPress. Cronologia Desde 2018 Silver Lake (fondo de inversión) es el mayor accionista de WPE Se cambian los términos de uso de la marca WordPress Matt/Automattic se puso en contacto con WP Engine con la propuesta de que pagaran por usar la marca WP o que contribuyeran al proyecto a través de 5ftf, o una combinación de ambos (un 8% beneficios) Matt confiaba en que contribuyeran Matt publica durante la WCUS en el blog de WordPress.org que “WP Engine no es WordPress” (21/09) Matt habla en la WCUS y “saca los colores” a WP Engine públicamente (21/09) Carta de cese y desistimiento de Automattic a WP Engine para que deje de usar la marca (23/09) WP Engine toma acciones legales contra Automattic (23/09) WP Engine intenta dejar de mostrar las noticias de WordPress.org en el admin (24/09) Se prohíbe a WP Engine acceder a WordPress.org (25/09) Acceso a los repositorios de WordPress bloqueadas para WP Engine (25/09) Se levanta la prohibición de WP Engine al acceso de WordPress.org (28/09) Motivos para exigir a WP Engine que cambie el nombre o pague por usarlo Matt considera que confunden al usuario. Poniendo ejemplos como que su madre lo confunde o que WPE tiene planes que se llaman WP core. Automattic es dueña de la marca WordPress y puede decidir cuando se infringe Motivos para “exigir“ colaboración a WP Engine Facturan +400M de dólares al año Solo contribuyen 40h/semana al 5FtF (por los 3.915 h/semana de Automattic, teniendo un tamaño similar) Solo invierten en acciones de marketing (que no se considera una contribución al proyecto) Otros motivos de disgusto con WP Engine Desactiva las revisiones de las entradas de WordPress (una característica del core), para ahorrar dinero. Modificaron el código de la pasarela de pago de WooCommerce (que usa Stripe por debajo) para llevarse la comisión (en lugar de ir a Automattic). Utiliza recursos de la infraestructura del WordPress.org (repositorio de plugins) Ha bajado la calidad del servicio/soporte Qué dijo Matt en WCUS WP Engine extrae mucho valor del ecosistema de WordPress sin contribuir Paga con tu cartera y a la hora de elegir un hosting elige uno que contribuya Utilizó el termino “cancer” para referirse (indirectamente) a WP Engine Otros matices Problema de demonizar WP Engine (Local, ACF…) en lugar de Salt Lake. Problema del doble rasero con el nombre (WordPress.com). Problema de eclipsar la WCUS. GoDaddy fue llamado un “peligro existencial” para el ecosistema hace unos años, en cambio ahora fue mencionado como uno de los que contribuye al proyecto. Newfold Digital paga por usar la marca WordPress en sus planes etc Multidots ha decidido duplicar el número de horas que contribuye al 5FtF y aumentar la donación a la fundación WordPress. Algunas personas se desmotivan para continuar contribuyendo.

On the podcast today we have Joost De Valk. If you've been in the WordPress space for any length of time, it's likely that you've come across the Yoast SEO plugin. This was the brainchild of the guest today, Joost, same pronunciation, different spelling. We talk about how Joost found WordPress and quickly started working on his SEO plugin. How it rapidly grew and became his career. We discuss the WordPress landscape during this time and whether it's more difficult now to have the type of success that his plugin received, given that there are more players vying for our attention. The conversation then moves into why the plugin was recently sold to Newfold Digital. What were the guardrails that were put in place to ensure that the plugin continued and the employees felt safe? We end up talking about whether it's time for the WordPress Admin area to receive a UI refresh.

Global Product Management Talk is pleased to bring you the next episode of... Product Mastery Now with host Chad McAllister, PhD. The podcast is all about helping people involved in innovation and managing products become more successful, grow their careers, and STANDOUT from their peers. About the Episode:  If you have listened to me before, there is a good chance you've heard me say we need to fall in love with the customer's problem, not our solution. Getting enamored with our solution can distract us from the customer experience. Instead, the customer experience is a component of what creates value for customers. For example, have you ever been asked to enter your address more than once during an onboarding experience? What about at your doctor or dentist? For me, the answer is yes to all three. It's those simple things that add friction to the customer experience and if we want to make products customers love, we need to improve the experience for customers. To help us explore customer experience, joining us is Natashya Narkiewicz, currently VP of Product Management at Avetta and formerly senior director of product management for Newfold Digital, the company behind several popular webhosting brands, such as Bluehost, Network Solutions, HostGator, and Sitebuilder. She has held product roles for nearly 20 years and enjoys building products that have a clean customer experience. She is also a mentor in the business college at the University of North Florida, sharing her knowledge and experience each year with seniors as well as serving as a business mentor to female entrepreneurs in a 12-week program at the Jacksonville, Florida, Women's Business Center.

On the podcast today we have Marieke Van De Rakt & Taco Verdonschot, and they're both from Yoast SEO. I sat down with them both at WordCamp Europe and we talked about some of the recent changes that have taken place within the company. Having worked hard to build and maintain their company's reputation, they decided that it was time to steer the business in a new direction by selling it to Newfold Digital. We get into the reasons for this acquisition and the subsequent reshuffling of the management of the company. What were the details of that agreement, why did they join forces with Newfold Digital in particular, and how has the acquisition gone? We also talk about their longstanding commitment to contributing back to the WordPress project. Why have they done this and what benefits have they seen from this approach? Why do they bring so many of their team to WordCamps? Finally, we talk about their move into the Shopify space with their SaaS Shopify app.

On the podcast today we have Marieke Van De Rakt & Taco Verdonschot, and they're both from Yoast SEO. I think it's quite likely that you've heard of Yoast SEO, but in case you have not, it's a very popular WordPress SEO plugin, installed over 5 million times. They've been optimising websites for many years and make significant contributions to the WordPress project, committing to Core, sponsoring events and many other things. I sat down with them both at WordCamp Europe and we talked about some of the recent changes that have taken place within the company. Having worked hard to build and maintain their company's reputation, they decided that it was time to steer the business in a new direction by selling it to Newfold Digital.

What were the details of that agreement, why did they join forces with Newfold Digital in particular, and how has the acquisition gone? We also talk about their longstanding commitment to contributing back to the WordPress project. Why have they done this and what benefits have they seen from this approach? Why do they bring so many of their team to WordCamps? Although Yoast is well known in the WordPress space, they recently brought their product into an entirely new market, Shopify. This has led them to create a SaaS version of their SEO solution and has brought them into contact with a completely new market. How has this move gone and does it mean they're moving away from WordPress? Typically, when we record the podcast, there's not a lot of background noise, but that's not always the case with these WordCamp Europe interviews. We were competing against crowds and the air-conditioning. Whilst the podcasts are more than listenable, I hope that you understand that the vagaries of the real world were at play. Useful links.

Neo4j, Inc. had been through several releases of its software and several license choices along the way, ending with what the court called “the Sweden Software License,” because the licensor was a Swedish subsidiary of the plaintiff. You can check out the details on the open-source initiative. Listen to Spencer Forman's latest take on why multilanguage is critical for your WordPress business on our episode here on the WP Minute.

In the News Everyone in the WordPress world is talking about the acquisition of Yoast to NewFold Digital. Yoast SEO, the well-known plugin for WordPress with over 12 million active installs, is the flagship product of Yoast. I interviewed Joost de Valk on the WPMinute. The most important takeaway was that despite all of the speculation, the feedback has been mostly positive. Like many other WordPress concerned citizens, Jeff Chandler shares his initial thoughts on the acquisition on his podcast over at WP Mainline. As with all acquisitions, people are afraid that stuff will change for the worst — especially in ads or upsells. At this time, the Yoast product will not be adjusting free or premium features or adding in any other pesky upsell ads. Also keeping up with the news, Matt Mullenweg discusses the funding rounds from Automattic since last February. Automattic closed a primary funding round of $288M, bringing in some new partners including BlackRock, Wellington, Schonefeld, and Alta Park. Matt covered the buyback of $250M shares that were primarily targeted at current and former employees. Matt's article also discusses the hiring challenge that Automattic has right now. Welcome to the club. There are lots of jobs available over at Automattic. Go check them out if you’re interested. Riad Benguella writes a new blog post about the difficult task of monitoring performance with Gutenberg and looks at the cost of several WordPress plugins – particularly loading time with blocks. Since the performance is measured with blocks by extendibility, the repository for blocks has been growing like crazy. This can often make your typical WordPress site have over 12 (or more) plugins installed. These plugins can impact performance and Riad does a great job of testing plugins with Gutenberg and reporting his findings. View the results along with the methods over on his blog. The average load times of the most popular are…well I can’t show you the graph in audio…but you have to take a look. The three top offenders are Yoast, Jetpack, and WooCommerce. Events WordCamp US will be back online October 1st. There is a call for Sponsors along with Speakers and talk ideas.

This is happening September, 24 & 25. From the Grabbag Don't get nervous about all the WordPress changes.
