Getting started with WordPress. A topic that's been popping up a lot more in my WP Minute+ interviews lately. Where does one go when they want to get started with WordPress? Learning how to use it. Learning what it can do compared to its competitors. Learning about the pockets of community to get involved with.I did what any other enterprising content creator would do, and took to ChatGPT to see how sharp the world's most feared — sorry — leading AI system thought about that question. Here's what it told me: 1. WordPress.orgJoin the WordPress.org Community: Start by creating an account at WordPress.org. This is the central hub for the WordPress community, where you can access forums, make contributions, and download resources like themes and plugins.Forums: Participate in the forums by asking questions or helping others. It's a great way to learn and connect with other WordPress users and developers.⠀2. WordPress MeetupsLocal Meetups: Join a WordPress meetup in your area. These are informal gatherings for users of all levels, and it's a great way to learn from and network with other WordPress enthusiasts. Check out the Meetup website or the Events section on WordPress.org for listings.⠀3. WordCampsAttend WordCamps: WordCamps are informal, community-organized events that are put together by WordPress users like you. Everyone from casual users to core developers participate, share ideas, and get to know each other. Find upcoming events on the WordCamp Central site.⠀4. ContributeContributor Days: Look for Contributor Day events, which are dedicated to contributing to WordPress, whether it's through coding, design, documentation, translation, or community support.Make WordPress Teams: Join one of the Make WordPress teams. These teams are responsible for different areas of the WordPress project, including Core, Design, Mobile, Plugins, Themes, Polyglots (translation), Community, Marketing, Documentation, and Support.⠀5. Learn and ShareWordPress.tv: Watch presentations and tutorials on WordPress.tv.Blogs and Social Media: Follow WordPress-related blogs, Twitter accounts, and Facebook groups. Many experienced WordPress professionals share valuable insights and tutorials online.Create Content: Start your own blog or YouTube channel to share your own WordPress experiences, tutorials, or reviews. Contributing your knowledge can help others and establish you within the community.⠀6. Development and ContributionTrac and GitHub: If you're interested in contributing to WordPress core or plugins, familiarize yourself with WordPress Trac and GitHub repositories. This is where development happens, and you can contribute by reporting bugs, suggesting improvements, or submitting patches.⠀7. Stay InformedWordPress News: Follow the WordPress News blog to stay up to date on the latest developments and opportunities to contribute./AI_responseJust a message to ChatGPT if it's listening: Please add The WP Minute to your database.And if you've been in the WordPress community for over the last 5 years, you most likely already knew this. We've all said the same things, wrote the same blogs, tweeted out the same links — how else would ChatGPT know this, anyway?There's a lot more nuance to it, and that's where the rubber meets the road. When someone asks you where to get started, maybe you should counter with a clarifying question, “What do you want to achieve with WordPress?” End user education, community involvement, developer courses, and/or running a WordPress business. These are the pillars that prop up this entire ecosystem, but we still lack a solid jumping off point for each individually. I have no doubts we'll continue to refine these areas, but like the software itself, it's going to take time. It's going to take folks like you to educate others in WordPress space about your specific experiences and lessons learned. Really humanize the process, not just a checklist of website logins and comment threads. We can't always rely on AI to color in the lines of what makes this community so special. The RepositoryComing up in The Repository this week: Does WordPress have a marketing problem? Two heavyweights share their views on “brand WordPress,” including the need to “learn marketing deeply.” Plus, we dig into the WordPress Foundation's 2023 Annual Report and unpack the disappointing Annual WordPress Survey results.Not a subscriber?

Bienvenido a una nueva edición de WP A DAY, tu fuente generada algorítmicamente para conocer las últimas noticias y actualizaciones en el ámbito de WordPress. Hoy es sábado, 2 de diciembre de 2023. En las noticias que te traemos en esta ocasión, tenemos unas cuantas historias interesantes. En primer lugar, Website Carbon ha introducido un nuevo sistema de calificación para ayudar a comprender y reducir las emisiones de carbono de los sitios web. El sistema utiliza una escala de calificación basada en las emisiones de CO2 por vista de página, similar a las clasificaciones de eficiencia energética de los electrodomésticos. El objetivo es hacer que la información sea accesible y comprensible para todos, y fomentar prácticas más sostenibles en el diseño y desarrollo web. El sistema busca desafiar a la industria y fomentar el progreso hacia un internet más sostenible. Encuentra la noticia completa en wholegraindigital.com. Por otra parte, el autor del artículo menciona que no le gusta el formato de WordPress Stories y explica las razones. Primero, dice que nunca ha utilizado este tipo de publicaciones y no le gustan. Prefiere leer texto y desplazarse de izquierda a derecha y de arriba hacia abajo. Segundo, señala que las Stories requieren el editor de bloques o la aplicación de WordPress, pero él prefiere usar el editor clásico en modo de texto en el navegador. Tercero, opina que las Stories son un formato extraño y añaden complejidad a WordPress. Además, no se pueden crear localmente y no se puede utilizar en su sitio web. Por último, destaca que aunque las Stories tienen un enlace permanente en línea, son un formato propietario y no se pueden copiar ni respaldar localmente. En resumen, el autor prefiere formatos simples de texto y no tiene interés en utilizar ni crear Stories. Tienes toda la información en jasonjournals.com. Y para finalizar, en este artículo se menciona el episodio de WordPress Briefing en el que se habló sobre dos recursos de medios con licencia abierta en el proyecto WordPress: Openverse y Photo Directory. Se explica que ambos proyectos han experimentado cambios y mejoras desde entonces, como que Photo Directory ha superado el hito de las 10.000 fotos y que Openverse ha fortalecido la confiabilidad de sus APIs. Se destaca que puede haber confusión sobre la diferencia entre ambos proyectos y se invita a escuchar el episodio para obtener más información. También se mencionan algunos eventos próximos, como el State of the Word y la convocatoria de patrocinadores para WordCamp Asia. Más detalles sobre este asunto en wordpress.org.

On the podcast today we have Ahmed Kabir Chaion. Ahmed has a genuine love of the WordPress community. He's been an organiser at multiple WordPress events, including WordCamp Asia, the WordPress Accessibility Day, WordFest Live, WordCamp Santa Clarita, and the WordPress Translation Day. As if that were not enough, he's also served as co-organiser of the Dhaka WordPress Meetup Chapter, is a former Design Team Rep and a current Polyglots Team Rep. So, Ahmed's really engaged in the WordPress community, but how did this all happen? The podcast today focuses on Ahmed's journey into WordPress. The podcast is all about how you can find a place in the WordPress community no matter what your strengths are. Maybe you're into writing code, or SEO. Perhaps marketing or translations are more your thing. He tells us how he got started just by showing up repeatedly, slowly working out areas where he thought his contributions would be most valuable. It's a lovely tale of a community member who is truly inspired to make the project better.

Allie and Nyasha just got back from the first ever WordCamp Asia in Bangkok, Thailand. In this episode, they each share their highlights from the event, as well as things they hope to be improved upon next year.
If you're a WordPress professional, it can be hard to know where you fit into the bigger picture. Online community The Admin Bar aims to provide a glimpse into the market with its annual WordPress Professional Survey. Web designer Kyle Van Deusen interviewed 667 professionals and reported on a range of topics.Among the highlights:77% of respondents consider themselves to be full-time;Over half of respondents have been in business for 10 years or less, while the majority have started up within the past 5;Solo freelancing is still popular, as 59% of respondents work alone;WordPress professionals are generally optimistic about the future of the software and agencies;The average hourly rate charged by respondents is $96.00;That's just a small sampling of what's included. There's plenty more to explore and the full data set is also available for download. https://youtu.be/1axiJSTDmK4 Links You Shouldn't MissOpenAI has announced that APIs for their Chat GPT and Whisper products are now available. This step will allow developers to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) into their own products. Expect the WordPress community to take advantage.Development agency ThemeKraft have published an open letter describing their concerns with the WordPress plugin review team. The letter details their experience when collaborating to fix a security issue with one of their products. With that being said, it's also worth mentioning that the plugin review team consists of volunteers and has noted a backlog of work. This letter details one developer's view and we're sharing it as such.With the upcoming release of WordPress 6.2, project core contributor Anne McCarthy has published an extensive guide to what's new. If you're looking for all the details regarding new features and important changes, this is a one-stop resource.To get a first-hand look at WordPress 6.2, you'll also want to check out the live demo hosted by McCarthy, Rich Tabor, and Nathan Wrigely. The video highlights new features and includes a Q&A session.From the Grab BagNow it's time to take a look at some other interesting topics shared by our contributors.

The plugin has free and commercial versions, with over 100,00 active installations.Meanwhile, plugin developer SnapOrbital has been put up for sale. The shop specializes in premium add-ons for LearnDash.With tightening privacy regulations, it's recommended that WordPress themes host Google Fonts locally. Several WordPress legacy default themes (from Twenty Twelve to Twenty Seventeen) are following suit, thanks to the efforts of contributors.The first-ever WordCamp Asia has left a lasting impression on attendees. Hidekazu Ishikawa spoke at the event and also launched a website detailing his experience.It's no secret that AI tool ChatGPT is seeing a lot of use. But what does that mean in terms of its environmental impact? One estimator says that, in January 2023, it may have used as much electricity as 175,000 homes.Thanks to all of the members who shared these links today: Justin FerrimanCourtney Robertson ★ Support this podcast ★

WordPress 6.2 is slated for release on March 28. Among its most impactful new features will be the integration of the Openverse media search. This will allow users to add images, audio, and video that are available via a Creative Commons license.While Openverse integration adds a layer of convenience, there was some debate about how the feature initially worked. As Sarah Gooding of WP Tavern reports, the first iteration (released in version 15.1 of the Gutenberg plugin) simply hotlinked to images, rather than uploading files to the user's website by default.Users had the option to upload the image via the WordPress Media Library. However, the default hotlinking behavior meant that some users would inevitably leave things as they are. This could run afoul of privacy regulations like GDPR in the European Union.Meanwhile, WordPress core contributor Jeremy Herve created a ticket that called attention to the potential issue. Others have since raised questions regarding usage rights - including the right to crop or otherwise modify media.The debate has led to a change in plans. WordPress contributors reacted swiftly and now the feature will upload Openverse images by default. A fallback has also been implemented that warns users when an image couldn't be uploaded. Check out WP Tavern's follow up for more details on how things evolved.Links You Shouldn't MissThere are more acquisitions to report in the WordPress space. First, Caseproof, makers of the MemberPress plugin, have acquired rival MemberMouse. In the announcement, MemberPress Creator and CEO Blair Williams says both products have different audiences and thus will remain separate offerings.Next up, Syed Balkhi announced that tutorial service WP101 has been acquired by Awesome Motive. Balkhi notes that the acquisition furthers his goal of creating the “best class-room style WordPress training videos to help WordPress grow in enterprise, government agencies, as well as at the school and collegiate level.”The democratization of publishing is a stated goal of WordPress. To see proof of it in action, look no further than the Prison Journalism Project. Sarah Gooding profiled the organization and its use of WordPress to help incarcerated writers to connect with the outside world.From the Grab BagNow it's time to take a look at some other interesting topics shared by our contributors.The popular All in One SEO plugin recently patched two security vulnerabilities. It's recommended that users upgrade to the latest version as soon as possible. Security firm Wordfence provided further detail on their blog.Back in July 2022, we reported that WordPress blog WPLift was sold to an undisclosed buyer. It's been revealed to The WP Minute that Boston-based agency UnlimitedWP is the new owner.A new proposal aims to display more topic-based meetups in the WordPress News & Events dashboard widget.Take in the sights of the recent WordCamp Asia with BobWP's recap of the event.With so many recent changes to WordPress content creation and theming, web designers need to adjust. Justin Tadlock explored the topic on the WordPress Developer Blog.Speaking of themes, developer Anders Norén announced that his collection of free block themes are now compatible with features added in WordPress 6.1.If you're looking for some inspirational stories, People of WordPress has you covered.

It's scheduled to be held in Taipei, Taiwan in March 2024.Links You Shouldn't MissThe glut of layoffs in the tech industry has started to impact WordPress professionals. As Sarah Gooding of WP Tavern reports, the trend has hit companies of varying sizes. Large companies like GoDaddy and DigitalOcean have made cuts, as have smaller firms like Human Made and XWP.Back in November 2022, the WordPress community raised concerns about meeting platform Meetup.com's use of an accessibility overlay. The company pledged to work with advocates to improve their user experience. They recently released an assessment that lists 700+ improvements to be made and shared a plan for action. The WordPress Accessibility Team posted more details on the process, while WP Tavern provides more background regarding the issue.Should Gutenberg-related features be treated differently when it comes to how they're merged into beta versions of WordPress? Project Lead Developer Andrew Ozz has proposed a method to make it easier to merge these changes after a WordPress beta 1 version “feature freeze”. The idea has generated a robust debate in the proposal's comment section.From the Grab BagNow it's time to take a look at some other interesting topics shared by our contributors.Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is now available for your WordPress.org account.

It's no secret that tools boasting Artificial Intelligence are popping up all over the place. That most certainly includes WordPress. And now Auttomattic's WordPress.com is running an experiment to see how the technology might benefit users.As reported by blogger JenT at WPcomMaven, the managed hosting service quietly added two AI-powered blocks to the Block Editor. The AI Image and AI Paragraph blocks are aimed at helping content creators.As the name suggests, the AI Image block allows users to generate an image that can be inserted into a post. And the AI Paragraph block will “read” your post's content and generate follow up text.Automattic CEO Matt Mullenweg confirmed the new features on Twitter, but made no promises regarding how long they'll stick around.Meanwhile, Automattic engineer Artur Piszek published a brief post introducing the blocks and answering questions in the WordPress.com support forums. Based on the conversation, it looks as though this could be a commercial add-on in the future.The technology is being branded as “Jetpack AI”, and was built in conjunction with OpenAI.Links You Shouldn't MissThe first-ever WordCamp Asia is set to take place from February 17-19 in Bangkok, Thailand. If you're not able to attend in person, you can still watch a live stream of the event. Recordings of each session will also be posted on WordPress.tv at a later date.WordPress.org has kicked off a monthly feature called “What's new for developers?” Written by Justin Tadlock, February's post outlines several key changes that impact theme and plugin authors. You'll also find links to the site's latest educational materials. This resource looks like a win for the WordPress developer community.Cost cutting measures have continued to hit the tech industry hard. Domain registrar and hosting giant GoDaddy is among the latest to announce staff cuts. In a February 8 letter to employees, CEO Aman Bhutani said the company would cut approximately 8% of its workforce. The devastating earthquakes in Turkey and Syria have impacted millions - including members of the WordPress community.

On the podcast today, we have Naoko Takano. A few days from now, from the 17th to the 19th February 2023, to be precise, the first in-person WordCamp Asia will take place in Bangkok, Thailand. If you follow WordPress events closely, then I'm sure that you've seen the excitement mounting. Naoko is on the podcast today to talk about this important event; how it came to be and why it matters. We start off getting some background on Naoko and her personal journey with WordPress. She's currently sponsored full time by Automattic to work with the wordpress.org community and polyglots teams. The conversation then turns to the event itself. It's sold out, but you can still take part by watching the live streams of the three tracks that are running. Towards the end of the podcast, we get into the important question of why we need a WordCamp Asia. Naoko makes the point that the other ‘flagship' WordPress events are not that accessible for some people. This could be because of the difficulty in acquiring visas for the U.S. or Europe, but also the costs of travelling to the event and accommodation whilst there. If you're attending WordCamp Asia in-person or online, this podcast will give you a new perspective on the event, and if you're not planning on being there, maybe this episode will make you rethink.

We all know that the WordCamps in 2020 got cancelled. This was a good idea because saving lives comes before attending online events, but I thought that it might be a good idea to get someone on the WP Builds podcast to have a chat with us about WordCamps nonetheless. Why, you might ask? Well, can you imagine what it would be like to be a part of a team who had worked extremely hard to get an event like WordCamp Asia, or WordCamp Europe up and running, only to have to cancel it with just a few days and weeks to go? I could not imagine that, and so I talked to someone who could. Someone who has firsthand experience working on a WordCamp and then having to pivot it into an online event. So find out what's involved in setting up a WordCamp on the podcast today...
