The suspension left 300,000 users (including those using Zerif Lite child themes) without maintenance and security updates.</p>\n<p>After five months of fixes and several rounds of review, <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/themes/zerif-lite/\" target=\"_blank\">Zerif Lite</a> has returned to the directory with the same functionality but a significantly altered user experience. Users are now required to install a plugin for the features that were previously deemed to be &#8220;faux custom post types,&#8221; violations of the content vs. presentation guideline for WordPress.org-hosted themes. These include small custom content blocks that appear on the homepage for things like team info and testimonials.</p>\n<p>&#8220;We will work on making sure it is all clear for people, but I still don’t understand or agree with the requirement,&#8221; ThemeIsle CEO Ionut Neagu said. &#8220;I think <a href=\"http://torstenlandsiedel.de/2017/02/21/questions/\" target=\"_blank\">Torsten phrased it better</a>: &#8216;Why do the guidelines of the Theme Review Team forbid the usage of Shortcodes/CPTs/etc. due to problems when switching themes, if, in the meantime, the Plugin Review Team explicitly allows those plugins which only work for one theme, which brings the entire idea (function remains intact after switching themes) to absurdity?\'&#8221;</p>\n<p>At the time of suspension, Neagu estimated that Zerif Lite&#8217;s unavailability on WordPress.org would diminish the company&#8217;s revenue by 50%.</p>\n<p>&#8220;What was interesting is that revenue continued to decrease for all those months and we are now at around $45k/month instead of $120k,&#8221; Neagu said. &#8220;That revenue won’t be back as the theme is live. A big part of success/sales before was that we had a great demo, a very easy-to-set-up theme, and ‘better’ upsells.&#8221;</p>\n<p>Neagu said the company has seen no significant increase in revenue during the first few days the theme has been back in the directory. His team has considered releasing the theme under a completely different name but is committed to supporting the current version for at least the next two years. Meanwhile, they have built newer themes like <a href=\"https://themeisle.com/themes/hestia/\" target=\"_blank\">Hestia</a> to be capable of importing Zerif content seamlessly into its design to avoid the lock-in effect.</p>\n<p>Neagu said the experience of losing so much revenue has not changed the company&#8217;s strategy for distribution. They will continue to add new themes to WordPress.org but Neagu said they would be lucky to add two per year, given the limitation of one theme per account and a 6-7 month waiting period in the queue.</p>\n<p>Zerif Lite&#8217;s suspension was a controversial decision. Many who commented on our first <a href=\"https://wptavern.com/zerif-lite-suspended-from-wordpress-theme-directory-300k-users-left-without-updates\" target=\"_blank\">post</a> about the issue were pleased to see the Theme Review Team finally throw the book at ThemeIsle after the company had been allowed to skirt the requirements for more than a year without resolving the issues. Others saw the situation as an opportunity to re-examine the directory&#8217;s requirements.</p>\n<p>&#8220;Perhaps the rules surrounding theme submission to the repo should be relaxed for everyone – limited only to security concerns perhaps, let the market sort out the rest,&#8221; <a href=\"https://twitter.com/bradley_kirby\" target=\"_blank\">Bradley Kirby</a>, author of the Wallace theme, said. &#8220;Is it possible that absolute data portability isn’t an expectation or desire from most end users? That they expect to do some manual porting of data when they change themes? That they prize other features like site design and built-in functionality over something like data portability?&#8221;</p>\n<p>Zerif Lite has been at the center of the Theme Review Team&#8217;s discussions regarding data portability for the past two years after the team began <a href=\"https://wptavern.com/wordpress-theme-review-team-is-cracking-down-on-violations-of-the-presentation-vs-functionality-guideline\" target=\"_blank\">cracking down on violations of the Presentation vs. Functionality guideline</a>. The spotlight shined on Zerif Lite during that discussion eventually culminated in its suspension, as Neagu was forced to comply or have his theme removed.</p>\n<p>&#8220;I think our goal should just be to provide the best experience for the users, not just to comply without thinking about what users want,&#8221; Neagu said. &#8220;At least this is my goal &#8211; to build the best products that will help people to build their sites.&#8221;</p>\n<h3>The Risks of Using WordPress.org as a Primary Distribution Channel</h3>\n<p>WordPress.org is arguably the most effective way for a theme company to reach mass quantities of users with a freemium theme. The directory lends a great deal of credibility to its listings because of the stringent guidelines and rigorous review process. Failure to comply with these guidelines ultimately ended up sinking ThemeIsle&#8217;s flagship theme and Neagu is not optimistic that the previous revenue will return.</p>\n<p>&#8220;During this whole time, a thing that caught me off guard was some of people’s comments wondering if it was even safe to use a theme that was removed from the repo in the first place,&#8221; Neagu said. &#8220;I mean, in the user’s mind, and understandably so, there must have been something wrong with the theme since it got removed, right?&#8221; He said this experience caused him to see things differently.</p>\n<p>&#8220;Being listed in the official repository doesn’t only get you downloads and/or sales, but also trust and credibility in the eyes of your potential users,&#8221; Neagu said. &#8220;Unfortunately, most of the users who install themes directly via their WP dashboards are not very experienced, and they have no reason to research the web a bit more to find out what happened to the theme they heard about. In other words, if someone types &#8216;zerif&#8217; into the search field in their dashboard and they find nothing, they just move on.&#8221;</p>\n<p>Neagu said that in spite of differences Themeisle has had with the Theme Review Team, the company will continue to contribute and be part of the community. The theme&#8217;s suspension, re-working, and re-installment is an interesting case of what can happen when a company&#8217;s sales strategy is at odds with WordPress.org&#8217;s requirements.</p>\n<p>&#8220;Our products are focused towards beginners, being super easy to setup with built-in demo content, so they are not niched products that we can distribute in different communities,&#8221; Neagu said.</p>\n<p>&#8220;It is obvious that relying on a third-party marketplace is the worst scenario, but WordPress.org is the default solution: if you want to reach a large mass of people, you need to be there.&#8221;</p>\n<div id=\"epoch-width-sniffer\"></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:\"Wed, 22 Feb 2017 21:47:29 +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:13:\"Sarah Gooding\";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:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\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:48:\"BuddyPress: BuddyPress 2.8.1 Maintenance 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:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:32:\"https://buddypress.org/?p=264058\";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:68:\"https://buddypress.org/2017/02/buddypress-2-8-1-maintenance-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:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:536:\"<p>BuddyPress 2.8.1 is now available.

The team recently <a href=\"https://wordpress.github.io/gutenberg/\">published a UI prototype </a>for Gutenberg, an experimental block based editor. The editor displays content-specific toolbars when an element is selected and provides a way to move blocks up and down.</p>\n<img />Block Based Editor UI Prototype\n<p>While the goal is to reinvent WordPress&#8217; current editor, there&#8217;s no guarantee that the prototype will end up as the final product and is in a high state of flux.</p>\n<p>&#8220;The UI prototype exists mostly to serve as a non-static mockup,&#8221; Asmussen said. &#8220;It&#8217;s like a sandbox we&#8217;re building to test some of our mockups and assumptions, to see if they hold water or not. To that extent, it&#8217;s already been successful in informing us of things that worked well, and not so well.&#8221; The code that powers the editor is made up of about 90% JavaScript.</p>\n<p>One of the concerns in revamping the editor is accessibility. Joe Dolson <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/accessibility/2017/02/17/revising-the-wordpress-editor-gutenberg-and-accessibility/\">highlighted this concern</a> in a post on the Make WordPress Accessible site. Dolson notes that the accessibility team will work in tandem with the editor team to make the new editor as accessible as possible.</p>\n<p>&#8220;From an accessibility perspective, this is both an incredible opportunity to build a powerful and flexible experience for all users and an enormous risk that we could end up reducing the effectiveness of the editor for users with disabilities, or require them to use a 2nd-class editor without these enhanced editing capabilities,&#8221; Dolson said.</p>\n<p>&#8220;We in the WordPress accessibility community embrace the challenge of creating a great new experience, and want to assure the community that we are going to do everything we can to make sure that any new editor experience is as accessible as we can possibly make it.&#8221;</p>\n<p>Although the prototype&#8217;s functionality is limited, the team is interested to hear about your experience and expectations with using the editor. Some questions to consider during testing include:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Talk through each step, what does this do?</li>\n<li>What does this feel like?</li>\n<li>As you use it, what is missing you feel should be there?</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Many users have already <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/design/2017/02/09/initial-editor-blocks-prototype-editor-testing/\">shared their experiences</a>, providing valuable insight that is fueling rapid improvements to the <a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/\">project</a> on<a href=\"https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/\"> GitHub</a>.</p>\n<p>The best way to get involved and contribute to this project is to subscribe to the <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/design/\">Make WordPress Design</a> blog and provide feedback by commenting on posts.

The hostel’s cat just came to say “Good morning” and I just finished my night shift on the WPMU DEV forum. It’s my third day in Rio after spending the last 40 days in Bogota, Colombia. Traveling is in my blood or at least, it is now.</p>\n<p>I’m a full-time digital nomad and I have been for over a year now.</p>\n<blockquote><p>I’m single, I’m female and because of WordPress, I can travel around the world and work at the same time.</p></blockquote>\n<p>I started using WordPress in 2009, but I like to think that everything started in 2011 when I attended my first WordCamp in Poland. I remember I was extremely shy, scared and bit lost on the first day of WordCamp.</p>\n<p>It was a different world to me or at least in contrast to what I had at home – a small city in South East Poland. It was different because for the first time in a long time since college, I felt like I fit in with everyone there. They were a right fit for me and so was that place.</p>\n<p>Since that first WordCamp, I also attended many more in Poland as well as in other countries. Later, I went on to be the lead organizer of WordPress meetups in Wrocław and two WordCamps in Poland. I was also a speaker for many Polish events and for one WordCamp Paris.</p>\n<p>If not for the WordPress community and the friends I met on that very first WordCamp, I wouldn’t have been able to achieve any of those accomplishments.</p>\n<blockquote><p>But how could I have become a full-time digital nomad, you ask?</p></blockquote>\n<p>In 2015, I was stuck. I had a great, steady job in Wrocław. I was working with WordPress and everything was perfect, at least, that’s what I thought at the time.</p>\n<p>I achieved almost everything that society around me was expecting: a partner, apartment, a great job and the next step would have been getting married and having kids. Suddenly, I was sinking.</p>\n<p>For a year, the only moments where I was truly happy was when I was attending WordCamps and WordPress meetups – when I was with my “tribe”, my friends.</p>\n<p>Then, in May of 2015, something incredible happened: one of my friends sent me a link to a list of 70 companies which offered positions working remotely. Three of them were related to WordPress: Automattic, OnTheGoSystems and Incsub.</p>\n<p>That same day, I feverishly filled out an application for a position as a Support Star at Incsub, the parent company to WPMU DEV.</p>\n<p>After a wait full of agonizing anticipation, I finally got the job and six months later, I bought a one-way ticket to Japan, then one to Australia.</p>\n<blockquote><p>This was just the start of my life as a digital nomad.</p></blockquote>\n<p>Working at WPMU DEV remotely with partial dedicated hours and the rest being flexible allowed me to move and work while traveling.</p>\n<p>The people I work with comprise the best team ever. My boss, Tim, is incredibly supportive and is willing to help when something bad happens. I didn’t need to be worried about my job when my plans suddenly made a turn for the worse, which did happen. When I had to fly back to Poland in the middle of the week due to family emergencies, it wasn’t a problem.</p>\n<p>I always felt safe in the WordPress community and now I’m grateful to also feel safe with the people I work with even though we’re spread out across the globe and across many cultures.</p>\n<p>Even though I’m confident in my choice of being a digital nomad now, that wasn’t always the case. This was especially true since I apparently managed to make quite the big scandal in my hometown because “good girls” don’t run away.</p>\n<p>To my dismay, I was constantly told, “Study hard and you will get a nice, steady job in an office with insurance and a guaranteed retirement.”</p>\n<p>How could I not want that? After all, that’s supposed to be the dream of every woman, right? That’s what I was constantly told, anyway.</p>\n<p>Luckily, my best friend (who I had met at a WordCamp!) was there for me and said, “Don’t let them get to you. You are far away and they can’t hurt you.”</p>\n<p>Since then, I stood with my decision to finally be free and happy.</p>\n<p>Growing up in small city and being interested in computers and IT was not easy to say the least. Those aren’t traditionally considered subjects that interest girls. It also became all the more difficult when I realized this was something I wanted to do and nothing else.</p>\n<p>There weren’t many people around me in my hometown who understood what I wanted to do and even fewer people who would support me. Unfortunately, this is still true. It became tougher when I was diagnosed with heavy bipolar disorder.</p>\n<blockquote><p>At that time, everything sucked. I was lost and hopeless.</p></blockquote>\n<p>Compounding my stress, it was around then that I realized I also suffered from the impostor syndrome – the belief that you don’t know enough about the industry you’re in to be capable of doing your job and that you never will despite anything you do.</p>\n<p>There was an ugly feeling that crept in: I wanted to be somewhere else and I want to be different.</p>\n<p>Fortunately, every time I attended a WordCamp or WordPress meetup, these thoughts would melt away because I felt completely supported.</p>\n<p>It didn’t matter that I’m a girl or that I’m delightfully weird. What did matter was that I was knowledgeable about WordPress, my skills were growing quickly and that I could contribute to the community using my organizational skills.</p>\n<p>During these meetings, I don’t ever remember someone assuming that I’m a graphic designer because I’m a girl and “girls know color.” There’s nothing wrong with being a graphic designer, but assuming someone is based solely on their gender – there’s definitely something wrong with that.</p>\n<p>In reality, I’m a theme developer and in the WordPress community, that wasn’t unusual.</p>\n<p>It helped me gain confidence in myself and my skills. With that confidence, I found courage to start a life where I’m no longer wanting to be somewhere else or be someone else.</p>\n<blockquote><p>At any given time, I am who I want to be and I’m right where I want to be.</p></blockquote>\n<p>Solo traveling isn’t always peaches and cream or sunshine, lollipops and rainbows everywhere, especially when I’m sick and inevitably alone. All things considered, I wouldn’t swap it out for what many would consider to be a “normal” life – whatever that is – and instead, I think it&#8217;s important for people to do what makes them happy and not just what others expect of them.</p>\n<p>As a digital nomad, I was able to go to WordCamps in Tokyo, Belgrade, the US, Singapore and Vienna. I have met many new people and I have collected incredible memories along the way.</p>\n<p>This year and in many more to come, while others may doubt my choices, I’ll be happy, traveling to more WordCamps and enjoying a sense of true freedom just because I can.</p>\n<div class=\"rtsocial-container rtsocial-container-align-right rtsocial-horizontal\"><div class=\"rtsocial-twitter-horizontal\"><div class=\"rtsocial-twitter-horizontal-button\"><a title=\"Tweet: A Sense Of True Freedom\" class=\"rtsocial-twitter-button\" href=\"https://twitter.com/share?text=A%20Sense%20Of%20True%20Freedom&via=heropress&url=https%3A%2F%2Fheropress.com%2Fessays%2Fsense-true-freedom%2F\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"></a></div></div><div class=\"rtsocial-fb-horizontal fb-light\"><div class=\"rtsocial-fb-horizontal-button\"><a title=\"Like: A Sense Of True Freedom\" class=\"rtsocial-fb-button rtsocial-fb-like-light\" href=\"https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fheropress.com%2Fessays%2Fsense-true-freedom%2F\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"></a></div></div><div class=\"rtsocial-linkedin-horizontal\"><div class=\"rtsocial-linkedin-horizontal-button\"><a class=\"rtsocial-linkedin-button\" href=\"https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Fheropress.com%2Fessays%2Fsense-true-freedom%2F&title=A+Sense+Of+True+Freedom\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share: A Sense Of True Freedom\"></a></div></div><div class=\"rtsocial-pinterest-horizontal\"><div class=\"rtsocial-pinterest-horizontal-button\"><a class=\"rtsocial-pinterest-button\" href=\"https://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https://heropress.com/essays/sense-true-freedom/&media=https://heropress.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/022217-150x150.jpg&description=A Sense Of True Freedom\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Pin: A Sense Of True Freedom\"></a></div></div><a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"perma-link\" href=\"https://heropress.com/essays/sense-true-freedom/\" title=\"A Sense Of True Freedom\"></a></div><p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https://heropress.com/essays/sense-true-freedom/\">A Sense Of True Freedom</a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https://heropress.com\">HeroPress</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, 22 Feb 2017 12:00:21 +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:16:\"Kasia Świderska\";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:5;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\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:66:\"WPTavern: Solving the Mystery of How People Actually Use 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:29:\"https://wptavern.com/?p=65557\";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:77:\"https://wptavern.com/solving-the-mystery-of-how-people-actually-use-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:9727:\"<p>I’m in favor of <a href=\"https://wptavern.com/wordpress-telemetry-proposal-addresses-long-standing-privacy-concerns-as-gdpr-compliance-deadline-looms#comment-208658\">WordPress collecting more anonymized usage data</a> that could help make informed decisions on changes or improvements to core, such as tracking changes to the WordPress user interface, which buttons or settings are used most often, etc.</p>\n<p>A good example of when this data could have come in handy is the recent <a href=\"https://wptavern.com/wordpress-4-7-removes-the-underline-and-justify-buttons-from-the-editor\">removal of the justify and underline buttons</a> from the editor in WordPress 4.7. During <a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/27159#comment:82\">the discussion</a> on whether they should be removed or not, a number of people questioned if there was any user data available that would indicate how much they’re used and help gauge the impact of removing them.</p>\n<p>The only data available to help make an informed decision was provided by Mel Choyce. Choyce <a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/27159#comment:29\">shared statistics</a> from WordPress.com and its variety of editor interfaces that indicated Bold, Italic, and Links are used the most while Lists and Blockquotes are the second most used buttons.</p>\n<p>The Center and Left alignment buttons are used often, but the data doesn’t determine if people are using them to align text or images. Information on which headings are used most was not available. The team did not have any usage data specific to the WordPress core editor.</p>\n<p>In the ticket, Andrew Ozz, who maintains the TinyMCE component, <a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/27159#comment:103\" rel=\"nofollow\">chimed in</a> and agreed that good user data is needed.</p>\n<p>In an effort to obtain usage data before removing the buttons, Ozz <a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/27159#comment:104\">created a small plugin</a> to perform testing with five existing and first-time users. Interestingly, he discovered that both types of users clicked on the kitchen sink button to display the second row of buttons and didn&#8217;t click the button to hide them again.</p>\n<p>Ozz also shared other results from his limited testing.</p>\n<blockquote><p>I know these test results are extremely limited and cannot be used when making a decision, but they are an indication of what &#8216;real&#8217; testing may reveal. In this case it shows that moving buttons to the bottom row will have no effect on the usage of these buttons as they will still be visible at all times.</p>\n<p>This super limited testing also indicated another (much bigger) problem: somebody mentioned this some time ago (think it was @mor10), around 20% of the WordPress users don’t even know there is a second editor toolbar, and some feel &#8216;pretty stupid&#8217; after discovering it. I think this is bad UX and something that can be fixed easily by having the second toolbar open by default, and fixing it is more important and will improve the UX for these 20% of users a lot.</p></blockquote>\n<p>Imagine how useful it would be for core developers or others if there was usage data like this on a grander scale that could fuel rapid improvements and help discover and eliminate pain points.</p>\n<p>Matt Mullenweg, co-creator of the WordPress project, has <a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/38418\">closed the ticket</a> with the Telemetry Proposal as it&#8217;s not within the <a href=\"https://wptavern.com/state-of-the-word-2016-mullenweg-pushes-calypso-as-future-of-wordpress-interface-proposes-major-changes-to-release-cycle\">three project focus areas</a> for 2017.</p>\n<p>&#8220;There is no part of current or potential WP development that is being held back by the lack of this existing, as there are easy and current ways to answer questions with data to the extent it would inform our decisions,&#8221; Mullenweg said.</p>\n<p>Morten Rand-Hendriksen <a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/38418#comment:11\">responded to the closure</a> saying that the quantitative user testing falls squarely within the Customizer focus area.</p>\n<p>&#8220;I would argue since the release of the Customizer some years back, it has gone through a multi-year large-scale quantitative user test with incremental tweaks and improvements,&#8221; Rand-Hendriksen said.</p>\n<p>&#8220;This is in line with standard agile development. At this juncture, the Customizer can be considered mature, and moving a mature solution forward requires hard data on usage, use cases, and user needs. This goes beyond standard user testing to large-scale data collection, which is what this ticket aims at addressing.&#8221;</p>\n<h2>Perspective From a WordPress Release Lead</h2>\n<p>There are WordPress core developers who have shown interest in a similar system. At the start of the WordPress 4.7 development cycle, Drew Jaynes, who led the WordPress 4.2 release cycle, <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2016/08/17/wordpress-4-7-whats-on-your-mind/#comment-30573\">expressed interest</a> in creating an opt-in data collection system.</p>\n<p>The idea received positive feedback that included people offering to help. I asked Jaynes what his thoughts are on such a system and how it could benefit core development.</p>\n<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s some discussion about what form that collection should take initially, but I think there&#8217;s consensus that it should be opt-in, and take one of two forms (or a hybrid of the two): active (surveys in the admin) or passive (anonymized usage) data collection,&#8221; Jaynes said.</p>\n<p>&#8220;Either way, I think having this data available would benefit the entire community, regardless of the obvious practicable application within core development.</p>\n<p>&#8220;All of that data can and should be used to inform decision-making in WordPress going forward. The core team really needs to hit the reset button on the concept of the 80/20 rule, including what and whom it represents.</p>\n<p>&#8220;We should be building modern WordPress for the modern WordPress user, and resting on Matt&#8217;s instincts coupled with the core team&#8217;s experience is no longer enough to maintain positive forward momentum.&#8221;</p>\n<p>Jaynes cites the editor as an example of where having the data would be helpful and that without it, pursuing an idealized &#8216;modern editor&#8217; in WordPress is premature. The data could also help provide insight into improving the new user experience.</p>\n<p>&#8220;A common complaint is that the WordPress admin can be really overwhelming to new users,&#8221; Jaynes said. &#8220;Having real data about how frequently the various core screens are used could really inform decisions about maybe paring it down, or hiding some things over time that are used less and less.&#8221;</p>\n<p>While collecting data could help with making informed decisions, he doesn&#8217;t think it should stop the core team from experimentation.</p>\n<p>&#8220;I think having real, citable data could really reduce the amount of backlash we&#8217;ve seen with a few releases in the last couple of years,&#8221; Jaynes said. &#8220;Areas where core team decisions left some group of users feeling jilted.&#8221;</p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s worth mentioning that there&#8217;s absolutely value in allowing the core team to experiment, as long as we&#8217;re careful not to latch onto something that got merged as the only way we&#8217;ll ever need to solve that problem; that&#8217;s where we get into trouble.&#8221;</p>\n<h2>Who Are The 80/20 Users of WordPress?</h2>\n<p>The most striking statement in Rand-Hendriksen&#8217;s proposal is that WordPress development is occurring without having any idea who the 80% or 20% of users are.</p>\n<p>&#8220;During the development of WordPress 4.7, I was involved in several conversations centered around <em>assumed use</em> of features,&#8221; Rand-Hendriksen said.</p>\n<p>&#8220;The general argument was that based on the 80/20 rule, certain features should be added while others should be removed. I kept bringing up the well-known fact we don’t have a clue what features 80%, or even 20%, of WordPress users actually use so any claim of validity in the 80/20 rule is guesswork at best.&#8221;</p>\n<p>Collecting usage data is standard practice. Microsoft Windows, Mozilla Firefox, Chrome, iOS, and a number of other software projects have opt-in data collection systems that are used to improve the product. They also provide insight into how customers are using their products.</p>\n<p>WordPress development on the other hand relies on the support forums, data collected from WordPress.com, limited user testing, verbal feedback at WordCamps, and other small data points. Collecting usage data from WordPress could show trends and provide evidence for changes related to the <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/about/philosophy/\">decisions not options philosophy</a> of WordPress development.</p>\n<p>Collecting usage data isn&#8217;t going to solve all of WordPress&#8217; woes but having it available to make more informed decisions is better than not having any data at all. Although an opt-in data collection system in WordPress won&#8217;t be a core focus any time soon, it&#8217;s encouraging to see the idea has merit and is something some core developers are interested in seeing become a reality.</p>\n<p>I&#8217;d gladly opt-in and share my usage data with WordPress.org as long as it was anonymized and displayed publicly in aggregate.

The release was named for <a href=\"http://www.sanmatteopanuozzo.com/\" target=\"_blank\">San Matteo Panuozzo</a>, an NYC pizza restaurant that specializes in panuozzo, a more portable pizza-sandwich hybrid. Following suit with the previous release, 2.8 focuses on improvements for developers and site builders, the project&#8217;s new target audience as of 2016.</p>\n<p>As part of an effort to modernize the plugin&#8217;s codebase and prepare it for better integration with the BP REST API project, this release <a href=\"https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/buddypress-2-8-will-require-php-5-3/\" target=\"_blank\">boosts the minimum PHP requirement to 5.3</a>. In BuddyPress versions 2.7+, the plugin will display a notice in the dashboard if it detects that the server doesn&#8217;t meet the minimum requirements for running 2.8. The change is not likely to affect many BuddyPress sites as only a small sliver (5.7%) of WordPress sites are running on PHP 5.2.</p>\n<p>This release also adds a companion stylesheet for <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/themes/twentyseventeen/\" target=\"_blank\">Twenty Seventeen</a>. This stylesheet is important for providing a good first impression of BuddyPress for those who are trying try out the plugin with WordPress&#8217; latest default theme. A <a href=\"https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/bp-theme-compatibility-and-the-wordpress-default-themes/twenty-seventeen-theme/\" target=\"_blank\">new BP codex page</a> gives sample code for changing Twenty Seventeen&#8217;s default two-column layout to be a full-width layout.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://i1.wp.com/wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/buddypress-twenty-seventeen.png?ssl=1\"><img /></a></p>\n<p>The 2.8 release brings improvements to the “Activate Pending Accounts” screen, making it easier for site managers to confirm or reject new registrants. Clicking on the username of a pending account will now display profile data that the user entered at signup.</p>\n<p>Other improvements for developers include the following:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>New filters and actions for the Messages component</li>\n<li>Support for List-Unsubscribe header in emails</li>\n<li>More flexible Group search</li>\n<li>New filter enables choice of which PHPMailer should be used when sending BuddyPress emails</li>\n</ul>\n<p>BuddyPress 2.8 was made possible by 44 volunteer contributors.

Peter is a web developer from the Land of the Danes. He is the creator of <a href=\"https://wptavern.com/wp-pusher-aims-to-provide-pain-free-deployment-of-wordpress-themes-and-plugins-from-github\" target=\"_blank\">WP Pusher</a> and a huge travel addict, bringing his work along with him as he goes.<br />\n&nbsp;</p>\n<hr />\n<p>In the last few years, a wave of virtualization technologies have swept through our WordPress development environments. The one that&#8217;s sounded the most promising to me has been Docker: lightweight and flexible. Yet, until recently, getting Docker up and running was an overwhelming task &#8211; especially on a non-Linux machine. If you managed to get it up and running in a virtual machine (using Vagrant or similar), getting port-forwarding to work would make you give up and just use Vagrant instead.</p>\n<p>Now it&#8217;s different.</p>\n<p>With (a stable) Docker for Mac and Windows and <a href=\"https://docs.docker.com/compose/\" target=\"_blank\">Docker Compose</a> at hand, getting Docker up and running is easy and pain-free. With Docker Compose you can tell Docker exactly what you want your WordPress development environment to look like and it will take care of it.</p>\n<h3>What is Docker?</h3>\n<p>Docker is a technology that makes it really simple to create isolated containers for your applications and websites to run in. These containers can be combined and modified to fit the needs of your applications. Docker is utilizing the Linux Containers technology (LXC) where multiple isolated environments can share the same Linux kernel &#8211; making it very lightweight compared to something like Vagrant.</p>\n<p>The Docker ecosystem is built around containers. In the Docker Hub, you can find an endless number of containers that other people have built or you can build your own using a Dockerfile. When building your own, you can start from scratch using the base Ubuntu image or extend someone else&#8217;s image.</p>\n<p>You can share local directories with your containers and link the networks, so they can talk to each other &#8211; just like you know it from other virtualization technologies. However, this is where it gets complicated which leads me to Docker Compose:</p>\n<h3>What is Docker Compose?</h3>\n<p>Docker Compose is what makes Docker available to mortals like you and me. As the name implies, Docker Compose is a tool for composing Docker containers. That means defining your services (containers), setting up the network between them, sharing local directories with them, and a few more things.</p>\n<p>With Docker Compose you create a simple file in the root of your project that describes the setup required by your application/website. For a WordPress theme that might mean a container to run WordPress, a container to run MySQL and a container to run Gulp or Grunt. This can very easily be defined in a docker-compose.yml file that can then be shared with your team members. This means that you can now share your WordPress theme, including an isolated WordPress environment to run it in. Hurray for virtualization!</p>\n<h3>Why use Docker?</h3>\n<p>There are a few reasons why Docker is an attractive technology for me. Here are the most important requirements I have for my development environment and how Docker solves them:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Clean Mac:</strong> In an ideal world, I prefer not to install anything related to my development environment directly on my Mac. I work on so many different projects that this gets unmanageable. When one thing works, another doesn&#8217;t. I also travel a lot and should something happen to my computer, I want to be able to set up a new machine in minutes.</li>\n<li><strong>Shareable:</strong> I often work in teams, so sharing my development environment with teammates is crucial. This is possible with Vagrant, but it&#8217;s still very tricky to keep environments in sync across teams.</li>\n<li><strong>Lightweight:</strong> This is important, especially when on the road. Try running a few Vagrant boxes compared to a few Docker containers and see what I mean.</li>\n<li><strong>Extendable:</strong> Extending Docker is very easy. For example, I could extend the official WordPress container and build it with WP Pusher pre-installed, since I (obviously) always use it.</li>\n<li><strong>Mirror production:</strong> My development environment needs to be as close to production as possible. With Docker this is easy, since Docker can be used in production as well.</li>\n</ul>\n<h3>My Docker development environment</h3>\n<p>This is the very simple Docker setup I use for development of my WP Pusher plugin: A WordPress and a MySQL container. Both of them use the official Docker Hub images, so setting it up is very easy.</p>\n<p>My <code>docker-compose.yml</code> file looks like this:</p>\n<p></p>\n<p>It describes two services: a MySQL 5.7 database and WordPress running on PHP 5.6 and Apache. The database is using a volume on my local machine, so data will be persisted every time I shut off the container. My current directory (in this case a plugin) is mounted into the <code>wp-content/plugins</code> directory. This allows me to work on my plugin in a completely isolated WordPress environment &#8211; without installing anything, besides Docker, on my Mac. The WordPress container forwards port 80 to my local machine, so I can access it as &#8220;localhost&#8221; in my browser.</p>\n<p>If you want to try it for yourself, and have Docker installed on your machine, just add the file to your plugin (or theme) and run:</p>\n<p><code>$ docker-compose up -d</code></p>\n<p>In order to see which containers are running, just run:</p>\n<p><code>$ docker ps</code></p>\n<p>This a very simple setup that is easy to extend and build upon.</p>\n<p>I hope this post made you curious about Docker and WordPress.

Disqus CEO Daniel Ha said the company would release finalized pricing and provide more details well in advance of its planned March release, but users are reporting that the advertising has already been forced into their comments without warning.</p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Why did <a href=\"https://twitter.com/disqus\">@disqus</a> just add a bunch of ads to my site without my permission? <a href=\"https://t.co/CzXTTuGs67\">https://t.co/CzXTTuGs67</a> <a href=\"https://t.co/y2QbFFzM8U\">pic.twitter.com/y2QbFFzM8U</a></p>\n<p>&mdash; Harry Campbell (@TheRideShareGuy) <a href=\"https://twitter.com/TheRideShareGuy/status/826921387273052160\">February 1, 2017</a></p></blockquote>\n<p></p>\n<p>&#8220;We are one of the lucky 5% who now has to pay if we don&#8217;t want really irrelevant and horribly spammy links just plopped on our site with zero warning,&#8221; BabyCenter Social Media Manager Dina Vernon Freeman said. &#8220;Unless our users (mainly millennial parents) should care about overpaying for dentures! We&#8217;re looking for other platforms ASAP.&#8221;</p>\n<p>Brian O&#8217;Neill, who manages Slugger O&#8217;Toole, a site with more than 70,000 readers, was also hit with unwanted advertising on his site.</p>\n<p>&#8220;Disqus has started to put ads into our comments section of our site without even telling us,&#8221; O&#8217;Neill said in a <a href=\"https://sluggerotoole.com/2017/02/02/bear-with-us-as-we-try-to-remove-those-terrible-disqus-ads-from-the-comments-area/\" target=\"_blank\">post</a> explaining the new ads to the site&#8217;s readers. &#8220;As you can imagine I am extremely annoyed at this – I hate crappy online ads as much as you do. Supposedly we can remove the ads if we pay them $10 a month, but as yet there is no mechanism on their site to do this.&#8221; O&#8217;Neill said he is also exploring alternative commenting systems if he is unable to remove the advertising.</p>\n<p>Disqus responded to user complaints with a post to clarify that <a href=\"https://blog.disqus.com/advertising-will-remain-optional-for-over-95-of-sites-on-disqus\" target=\"_blank\">advertising will remain optional for more than 95% of the sites on Disqus</a>.</p>\n<p>&#8220;Larger, commercial, sites that elect to use the free version of Disqus will be supported by configurable advertising and have the option to earn revenue through the Reveal program,&#8221; Disqus Marketing Manager Mario Paganini said. &#8220;For small, non-commercial sites, advertising will be optional. These sites will be able to use Disqus’ ads-optional subscription, free of charge.&#8221;</p>\n<p>Publishers asked in the comments when the option to pay to remove ads will become available, as an option to pay isn&#8217;t currently in place.</p>\n<p>&#8220;Larger sites will be able to run a paid subscription version of Disqus that includes the ability to remove ads along with additional features,&#8221; Paganini said. &#8220;We are aiming to have this available in the next couple of months. We will be making periodic updates on our blog and talking to publishers in the meantime.&#8221;</p>\n<p>Disqus is moving to focus on its larger publishers but has already attracted angry criticism from publishers that were not properly informed of the changes. Over the years the company has experimented with different ways of monetizing the commenting platform, often frustrating users in the process of making important changes.</p>\n<p>In 2014, Disqus began experimenting with advertising in the form of &#8220;Sponsored Comments&#8221; that users could not turn off without contacting support. This move drew <a href=\"https://ma.tt/2014/11/disqus-spam-ads/\" target=\"_blank\">criticism from WordPress co-founder Matt Mullenweg</a> who essentially called out the ads as little more than comment spam. After a negative reaction from its community, Disqus quietly discontinued the Sponsored Comments and scrubbed the <a href=\"https://blog.disqus.com/heads-up-were-testing-a-new-form-of-advertising\" target=\"_blank\">announcement post</a> from the internet.</p>\n<h3>Disqus Delivers Low-Quality Ads</h3>\n<p>Disqus has struggled to land on an effective advertising model that will convince users to get on board. Its <a href=\"https://help.disqus.com/customer/portal/articles/2069645-reveal-f-a-q-\" target=\"_blank\">Reveal advertising program</a> is notorious for serving low-quality ads and has inspired little confidence in users who have tried it. The following is one of the tamer examples:</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://i1.wp.com/wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/disqus-ads.png?ssl=1\"><img /></a></p>\n<p>&#8220;I think if you had somewhat decent advertising you might convince people that it&#8217;s worth it, but I had to yank it from one of my sites because it was all &#8216;Ron Paul wants you to buy gold!&#8217; and &#8217;22 times the photos showed too much!\'&#8221; Paul King, an author who writes for multiple publications, commented on Disqus&#8217; most recent advertising announcement. &#8220;Just put in a tier of non-spam advertising that&#8217;s actually relevant or charge based on comments or something.&#8221;</p>\n<p>Twitter is filled with complaints from users who are dissatisfied with the questionable quality of Disqus&#8217; advertising.

Gone are overbearing gradients and dozens of shades of grey — bring on a bigger, bolder, more colorful design!</p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-2856\" style=\"margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0\" alt=\"about-modern-wordpress\" src=\"http://i2.wp.com/wpdotorg.files.wordpress.com/2013/12/design.png?resize=623%2C151\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" /></p>\n<h3>Modern aesthetic</h3>\n<p>The new WordPress dashboard has a fresh, uncluttered design that embraces clarity and simplicity.</p>\n<h3>Clean typography</h3>\n<p>The Open Sans typeface provides simple, friendly text that is optimized for both desktop and mobile viewing. It’s even open source, just like WordPress.</p>\n<h3>Refined contrast</h3>\n<p>We think beautiful design should never sacrifice legibility. With superior contrast and large, comfortable type, the new design is easy to read and a pleasure to navigate.</p>\n<hr />\n<h2 class=\"aligncenter\">WordPress on every device</h2>\n<p><img class=\"alignright  wp-image-2984\" alt=\"responsive\" src=\"http://i2.wp.com/wpdotorg.files.wordpress.com/2013/12/responsive.jpg?resize=255%2C255\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" />We all access the internet in different ways. Smartphone, tablet, notebook, desktop — no matter what you use, WordPress will adapt and you’ll feel right at home.</p>\n<h3>High definition at high speed</h3>\n<p>WordPress is sharper than ever with new vector-based icons that scale to your screen. By ditching pixels, pages load significantly faster, too.</p>\n<hr />\n<h2 class=\"aligncenter\">Admin color schemes to match your personality</h2>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-2954\" alt=\"colors\" src=\"http://i0.wp.com/wpdotorg.files.wordpress.com/2013/12/colors.jpg?resize=623%2C339\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" /></p>\n<p>WordPress just got a colorful new update. We’ve included eight new admin color schemes so you can pick the one that suits you best.</p>\n<p>Color schemes can be previewed and changed from your Profile page.</p>\n<hr />\n<h2 class=\"aligncenter\">Refined theme management</h2>\n<p><img class=\"alignright  wp-image-2967\" alt=\"themes\" src=\"http://i0.wp.com/wpdotorg.files.wordpress.com/2013/12/themes.jpg?resize=360%2C344\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" />The new themes screen lets you survey your themes at a glance. Or want more information? Click to discover more. Then sit back and use your keyboard’s navigation arrows to flip through every theme you’ve got.</p>\n<h3>Smoother widget experience</h3>\n<p>Drag-drag-drag. Scroll-scroll-scroll. Widget management can be complicated. With the new design, we’ve worked to streamline the widgets screen.</p>\n<p>Have a large monitor? Multiple widget areas stack side-by-side to use the available space. Using a tablet? Just tap a widget to add it.</p>\n<hr />\n<h2 class=\"aligncenter\">Twenty Fourteen, a sleek new magazine theme</h2>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-2789\" alt=\"The new Twenty Fourteen theme displayed on a laptop. tablet and phone\" src=\"http://i0.wp.com/wpdotorg.files.wordpress.com/2013/12/twentyfourteen.jpg?resize=692%2C275\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" /></p>\n<h3>Turn your blog into a magazine</h3>\n<p>Create a beautiful magazine-style site with WordPress and Twenty Fourteen. Choose a grid or a slider to display featured content on your homepage. Customize your site with three widget areas or change your layout with two page templates.</p>\n<p>With a striking design that does not compromise our trademark simplicity, Twenty Fourteen is our most intrepid default theme yet.</p>\n<hr />\n<h2>Beginning of a new era</h2>\n<p>This release was led by Matt Mullenweg.

Color schemes, which you can change on your profile, have also been spruced up.</li>\n<li>The dashboard homepage has been refreshed, poke and prod it.</li>\n<li>Choosing themes under Appearance is completely different, try to break it however possible.</li>\n<li>There&#8217;s a new default theme, Twenty Fourteen.</li>\n<li>Over 250 issues closed already.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Given how many things in the admin have changed it&#8217;s extra super duper important to test as many plugins and themes with admin pages against the new stuff.

This release features some of the most important architectural updates we&#8217;ve made to date. Here are the big ones:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Updates while you sleep</strong>: With WordPress 3.7, you don&#8217;t have to lift a finger to apply maintenance and security updates. Most sites are now able to automatically apply these updates in the background. The update process also has been made even more reliable and secure, with dozens of new checks and safeguards.</li>\n<li><strong>Stronger password recommendations</strong>: Your password is your site&#8217;s first line of defense. It&#8217;s best to create passwords that are complex, long, and unique. To that end, our password meter has been updated in WordPress 3.7 to recognize common mistakes that can weaken your password: dates, names, keyboard patterns (123456789), and even pop culture references.</li>\n<li><strong>Better global support</strong>: Localized versions of WordPress will receive faster and more complete translations. WordPress 3.7 adds support for automatically installing the right language files and keeping them up to date, a boon for the many millions who use WordPress in a language other than English.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>For developers there are lots of options around how to control the new updates feature, including allowing it to handle major upgrades as well as minor ones, more sophisticated date query support, and multisite improvements. As always, if you&#8217;re hungry for more <a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Version_3.7\">dive into the Codex</a> or browse the <a href=\"http://core.trac.wordpress.org/query?status=closed&amp;group=resolution&amp;milestone=3.7\">over 400 closed tickets on Trac</a>.</p>\n<h3>A New Wave</h3>\n<p>This release was led by Andrew Nacin, backed up by Dion Hulse and Jon Cave. This is our first release using the new plugin-first development process, with a much shorter timeframe than in the past. (3.6 was released in August.) The 3.8 release, due in December, will continue this plugin-led development cycle that gives much more autonomy to plugin leads and allows us to decouple feature development from a release. You can follow this grand experiment, and what we&#8217;re learning from it, <a href=\"http://make.wordpress.org/core/\">on the make/core blog</a>.

These are really easy to test  — RC 1 will update every 12 hours or so to the latest development version, and then email you the results. (You may get two emails: one for debugging, and one all users of 3.7 will receive.) If something went wrong, you can report it.</p>\n<p><strong>Think you’ve found a bug? </strong>Please post to the <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/support/forum/alphabeta/\">Alpha/Beta area in the support forums</a>.

Or you can <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/wordpress-3.7-RC1.zip\">download the release candidate here</a> (zip). If you’d like to learn more about what&#8217;s new in WordPress 3.7, visit the awesome About screen in your dashboard (<strong><img alt=\"\" src=\"http://i0.wp.com/core.svn.wordpress.org/branches/3.6/wp-content/themes/twentyten/images/wordpress.png?w=692\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" /> → About</strong> in the toolbar). There, you can also see if your install is eligible for background updates. WordPress won’t automatically update, for example, if you’re using version control like Subversion or Git.</p>\n<p><strong>Developers,</strong> please test your plugins and themes against WordPress 3.7, so that if there is a compatibility issue, we can figure it out before the final release.

You can pull this out of the /languages/ folder in the package. As a bonus, if you&#8217;re using Twenty Fourteen, you can also find a theme translation within this folder. </p>\n<p><strong>Step 2.</strong> Create a new directory under wp-content called languages:  <strong>/wp-content/languages/</strong></p>\n<p><strong>Step 3.</strong> Upload the en_GB.mo file to the languages directory.</p>\n<p><strong>Step 4.</strong> Add this line to your <em>wp-config.php</em> file in the languages section: </p>\n<pre>define(\'WPLANG\', \'en_GB\');</pre>\n<p>Save your changes to <em>wp-config.php</em> and upload it to your server. You should now have proper English displayed throughout your installation.</p>\n<p>Note that this same process applies to any other language files as well. Hopefully, this small courtesy will bring some cheer to our friends across the pond!</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:\"Fri, 13 Dec 2013 19:54:25 +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:13:\"Sarah Gooding\";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:12;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\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:83:\"WPTavern: Help Build CF Community: A Social Network for People with Cystic Fibrosis\";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:32:\"http://www.wptavern.com/?p=12941\";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:96:\"http://www.wptavern.com/help-build-cf-community-a-social-network-for-people-with-cystic-fibrosis\";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:13233:\"<p>Imagine being born with a genetic disease that causes your lungs to fill, making it hard, sometimes impossible, to breathe. Imagine being susceptible to lung infections and a shorter life expectancy than everyone else. Imagine coughing attacks, feeling as though you&#8217;re drowning, regular hospital stays, and the fear of an uncertain future.</p>\n<p>Now imagine that thousands of others also share this genetic disease but you won&#8217;t ever be able to meet with them in person. You won&#8217;t be able to get together to share stories, a shoulder, a helping hand, a hug, or build a community of support and encouragement.<span id=\"more-12941\"></span></p>\n<p>This is the reality for those living with cystic fibrosis. People with CF are not allowed to have contact with one another. Because of a high susceptibility to lung infections, they can easily infect each other just by hanging out. Highly resistant bacteria can be shared between those with CF that can lead to serious declines in lung function and more vicious illnesses that are harder to treat, ultimately reducing life expectancy.</p>\n<p>This is the issue being tackled by BuddyPress developer, consultant and community builder Bowe Frankema. Bowe lives with cystic fibrosis and has mounted a campaign to create a social network dedicated to bringing this community together virtually, since they cannot meet together in person. </p>\n<p></p>\n<p>We were able to catch up with Bowe and ask him some questions about this project, CFCommunity.net, what it will mean for the cystic fibrosis community, the technology behind it, and what the open source community has meant to him personally. </p>\n<p><strong>Tavern:</strong><em> When did it occur to you that BuddyPress and WordPress would be a perfect fit for the CF Community?</em></p>\n<p><strong>Bowe:</strong> The first time I visited the BuddyPress Community forums back in 2009. I already tried out BuddyPress, but wasn’t sure if it could do the job. The software was still in it’s early days and the learning curve was through the roof! I did have experience in web development and community building so I got just enough of it, to dive in deeper. </p>\n<p>I visited the support forums to ask some questions, and was blown away by the community there. <span class=\"pullquote alignleft\">Seeing this group of people working together to create software that was free for anyone to use, baffled me. Where was the catch? Why were these people doing this for free? </span></p>\n<p>BuddyPress introduced me to the concept of Open Source and working together on creating something that benefits everyone. As soon as I “got” it I never looked back and knew that I wanted to build CFCommunity on WordPress/BuddyPress. </p>\n<p><strong>Tavern:</strong> <em>Will you be building / designing the site yourself? Or will you be getting a team to help you?</em></p>\n<p><strong>Bowe:</strong> This is definitely a team effort. It’s funny that I’m able to type that with so much confidence, because it took me a long time to get to this point. I had the crazy idea that a non-profit project could be developed, managed and funded by this one guy, who also happens to have CF and can’t even work full time. It’s funny how your ambitions can make you set these unrealistic goals. As soon as I started talking about CFCommunity to my friends, they had these amazing ideas on how to make it happen. </p>\n<p>Registering as an official cause, doing a crowdfunding campaign and helping getting the word out, it’s all done with the help of the input of my friends. Especially Mason and Siobhan have been great friends and mentors! </p>\n<p>If we reach our goal we’ll be starting the development fairly soon. We’re still looking for a BuddyPress/WordPress plugin developer and someone who’s experienced with WP/BP Theme Development. </p>\n<p><a href=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/registration.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/registration.jpg?resize=560%2C212\" alt=\"registration\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13236\" /></a></p>\n<p>Besides the geek stuff there’s a lot of work we need to put in building the community. Translations, finding moderators, writing quality copy and getting the word out. It’s going to be fun :-)</p>\n<p><strong>Tavern:</strong> <em>What kinds of new plugins will you need to create to serve the CF community specifically?</em></p>\n<p><strong>Bowe:</strong> We have a few very specific plugins in mind that we’d like to develop for the community. Here’s some of them:</p>\n<p><em>I’m in the hospital :-(</em> &#8211; This is a button on your profile that you press when you’re in the hospital. You can put in your address + room number and your friends will get notified. They will then be able to quickly send you a physical get well card or an e-card. </p>\n<p><em>Memorial Profiles</em> &#8211; The world of CF can be very grim, and over the years we’ve lost some of our friends due to CF. We have created memorial pages for those we lost, where we share stories, pictures and memories. We’d like to have a place for this on CFCommunity. We have ideas for doing this in such a way that a memorial page remains private for a small group of friends connected to the person who passed away. </p>\n<p><em>Donations / Supporter Sytem</em> &#8211; A lightweight plugin that simply allows users to make recurring donations to our community. These supporters are automatically listed on a special page and have a special badge on their profile. </p>\n<p><em>Cause/Organisation Groups</em> &#8211; We’d like to give CF related causes the ability to create a group similar to a Discussion Group. The big difference is that they would be able to tell something about their cause. The biggest benefit for having these pages for CF related causes/organisations is making it very easy for our members to find places they could contact for information or support. </p>\n<p><em>Welcome Messages</em> &#8211; On CFCommunity we will have hosts who are welcoming our new members. In order to help new members we’ll automatically send them a welcome message in their native language by one of the hosts assigned to that country. </p>\n<p>These are a few unique plugins, but a ton of time is also spent on integrating and extending existing plugins that are perfect for our cause. One of the things we’re most excited about is using the <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/achievements/\" target=\"_blank\">Achievements</a> plugin to reward our members for things like taking their meds, gaining weight or exercising.</p>\n<p><strong>Tavern:</strong> <em> If you&#8217;re able to reach your funding goals, how long do you think it will take to build out the new CF Community site? And have you thought about a stretch goal?</em></p>\n<p><strong>Bowe:</strong> We’re aiming for a launch at the end of spring. The last 30% is always the hardest, and we have quite a bit of challenges to solve. It’s not just a technical thing, a lot of things are related to community building and finding the right people to lead the way. We’re planning to write about this process in more detail as the CFCommunity comes closer to launch!</p>\n<p>If we go over our funding goal one of the first things I’d like to do is create a similar plugin as Commons in a Box but then for causes. Basically it would be a plugin suite + theme that would allow anyone to quickly start a social network for their cause. I think it would be awesome to drastically lower the barrier for people to create these types of communities. I honestly believe WordPress is the perfect platform for these type of communities, so I hope we’ll get to that point after we’ve launched CFCommunity. </p>\n<p><strong>Tavern:</strong> <em>How has being involved with the WordPress and BuddyPress community changed your life?</em></p>\n<p><strong>Bowe:</strong> Story time! Average life expectancy for people with CF is around 40, I never realized how much everything I did was influenced by this. I badly wanted to leave my mark on everything I did. I was driven by an unhealthy fear of missing out on life. My entire life I had been taking shortcuts to achieve as much as possible in the shortest amount of time. </p>\n<p>This is something that I’ve heard from many of my friends with CF, we’re simply not allowing ourselves to plan a real future for ourselves. <span class=\"pullquote alignleft\">Often friends and family would praise me for being so driven and ambitious but I was driven by the fear that I was in the prime time of my life.</span> I neglected my treatments, skipped my meds and was constantly asking too much of my body. I certainly wasn’t in the best state of mind.  </p>\n<p>Things changed when I met an old friend who strongly advised me to see a different doctor. He really helped me change my perspective on life and helped me to stay motivated.</p>\n<p>I needed to start planning for the future, think long-term and manage my energy. Find things that would give meaning to my life but are actually achievable and do not have a negative impact on my health. Plan for the future. I decided that I wanted to plan a large part of my future around WordPress.</p>\n<p>WordPress has allowed me to build my career doing the things I’ve always loved doing; being creative, working with people, and give weight to my work through meaningful projects . </p>\n<p>I’ve made real friends through WordPress and most of these friends are now helping me with CFCommunity.</p>\n<p><span class=\"pullquote alignleft\">WordPress allows me to have an impact on others through my work. It has given me the chance to see the world through WordCamps and BuddyCamps.</span> It allows me to stand on my own feet and move from a small city in the Netherlands to the amazing city of Berlin. It allows me to work in my own pace and from anywhere. </p>\n<p>It’s an amazing idea that my work has impact on others across the world, and I have WordPress and it’s community to thank for it. </p>\n<p><strong>Tavern:</strong> <em>What is your ultimate hope for this community, on a heart level, where do you want it to go? In what ways do you hope that it will improve the lives of people with CF?</em></p>\n<p><strong>Bowe:</strong> When I was twelve my parents heard about these summer camps for kids with Cystic Fibrosis and thought it would be a good idea to sent me there. Those weeks have taught me more about living with CF than any doctor, family member or book could ever tell me. For seven days a year I would spent time with kids who truly understood what it was like being different. </p>\n<p><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/bowe.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/bowe.jpg?resize=560%2C298\" alt=\"bowe\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13217\" /></a></p>\n<p>While I was running around on the field playing a game of soccer with the well kids, we had ill kids, those who were sick at the time, cheering for us on the side of the field with IVs in their arms. I learned to accept CF as part of me, and be grateful that I was doing so well compared to others.</p>\n<p><span class=\"pullquote alignleft\">The idea that kids who are struggling with coming to grips with their Cystic Fibrosis, would never be able to experience what it was like to be accepted and understood in such a profound way really got to me.<br />\n</span><br />\nSo my ultimate goal with CFCommunity is to create something that could help people affected by CF to go through life a little easier. Last year my cousin gave birth to a beautiful girl who sadly also has CF. She’ll never be able to meet others with CF in real life and I know one day she’d like to meet others with CF. I want to create that place for her and everyone else affected by CF. How awesome would it be if she knew it was her uncle who made that happen? Being in a position to do these things is proof that I made the right decision to make WordPress such a big part of my life :-)</p>\n<h3>Help Make the CFCommunity a Reality</h3>\n<p>The project has already garnered the backing of some serious talent, including Mason James, Siobhan McKeown, Tom Wilmot, Tammie Lister and Sarah Smit. The campaign is also offering a number of awesome WordPress perks from companies like <a href=\"https://wpremote.com/\" target=\"_blank\">WP Remote</a>, <a href=\"http://thewpvalet.com/\" target=\"_blank\">WP Valet</a>, <a href=\"http://siteground.com\" target=\"_blank\">SiteGround</a> and <a href=\"http://hmn.md/\" target=\"_blank\">Human Made</a>. </p>\n<p>Those involved in the WordPress and BuddyPress community are in a unique position to help make a difference in the lives of those impacted by cystic fibrosis, whether it&#8217;s through support, a plugin donation, getting the word out or helping to fund the project.

Despite that, I feel like the talk went off pretty well, especially about halfway in, when I started fielding questions from the audience. I was able to relax more when I was answering questions than when I was concerned about remembering which slide was coming up next.</p>\n<p>Towards the very end, I realized that we were coming up against the session&#8217;s time limit, so I hurried through the last few slide points.

the links to the new URL. There are even more links to update on a multisite installation and you&#8217;re often working with a larger database. Today we&#8217;re going to look at a few handy tools that will make your life much easier when migrating a site. The tool you select usually depends on when you prefer to perform the search and replace.<span id=\"more-13165\"></span></p>\n<h4>Migrate DB Plugin: Requires Admin Access</h4>\n<p>If you have access to the WordPress admin, one of the easiest ways to make the changes up front is to use the Migrate DB plugin. Jeff recently <a href=\"http://www.wptavern.com/wordpress-plugin-review-wp-db-migrate\" target=\"_blank\">reviewed</a> it if you&#8217;d like to read more about how the plugin works. Essentially, you input your new URL and file path and the plugin exports an updated version of the database, which you would then import into an empty database on your new server.</p>\n<div id=\"attachment_11448\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/WPDBMigrateOptions.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/WPDBMigrateOptions.jpg?resize=560%2C417\" alt=\"WP DB Migrate Options\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11448\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Changing the site URL is easy!</p></div>\n<h4>Search and Replace WordPress Plugin: Requires Admin Access</h4>\n<p>In the event that you&#8217;ve already moved the site over to the new server and have already imported the database, you have a couple different options for performing your search and replace. One of them is to use phpmyadmin or a similar tool to update the home and site URLs so that you can get back into the WordPress admin. At that point you could use a plugin such as <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/search-and-replace/\" target=\"_blank\">Search and Replace</a> to update URLs, site name or anything else that&#8217;s necessary.</p>\n<p>This plugin lets you search over all or perform a more specific search in ID, post-content, GUID, titel, excerpt, meta-data, comments, comment-author, comment-e-mail, comment-url, tags/categories and categories-description.</p>\n<h4>Search and Replace DB Script: Does Not Require Admin Access</h4>\n<p>Another option that I&#8217;ve used many times is the <a href=\"http://interconnectit.com/products/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/\" target=\"_blank\">Search and Replace DB</a> tool. It&#8217;s not a WordPress plugin, but it&#8217;s very easy to use. This script preserves serialized PHP strings when performing a search and replace. You upload the script to your site, scan all the tables and then input what you want to find and replace.</p>\n<div id=\"attachment_13207\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/searchreplacev2.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://i0.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/searchreplacev2.jpg?resize=560%2C427\" alt=\"Scan tables\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13207\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Scan tables</p></div>\n<p>Although you can use this script with Drupal, Joomla or any similar CMS, it was made to work nicely with the unique requirements of WordPress migrations and includes a few key features:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Handles multiple nested serializations (sometimes present in transient values)</li>\n<li>Handles multi-byte Unicode changes safely (important for <a href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internationalized_domain_name\" target=\"_blank\">internationalized domain names</a>)</li>\n<li>Option to skip guid column for migrating sites that are already live</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The important thing to remember after using the <a href=\"http://interconnectit.com/products/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/\" target=\"_blank\">Search and Replace DB script</a> is that you must remember to remove it from your website once you&#8217;re finished. Otherwise, it poses a serious security risk.</p>\n<p>Of course there are many more tools than those listed here that perform similar functions. These three above are ones that I&#8217;ve tested multiple times and found to be the easiest and most efficient for getting the job done.  Do you know of any other outstanding migration tools?

You might be surprised to know that the backbone of the color schemes is just a handful of variables included in its scss file, defining the base, highlight, notification and action colors.

Over on <a href=\"https://dailypost.wordpress.com\" target=\"_blank\"><em>The Daily Post</em></a>, we&#8217;ve published interviews with popular bloggers on growing your site and building your readership.</p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-99\" alt=\"statwrangling\" src=\"http://pingomatic.files.wordpress.com/2013/12/statwrangling.png?w=600&h=267\" width=\"600\" height=\"267\" /></p>\n<p>Here are snippets from <a href=\"https://dailypost.wordpress.com/2013/10/22/cristian-mihai/\" target=\"_blank\">a great Q&amp;A</a> with author <a href=\"http://cristianmihai.net/\" target=\"_blank\">Cristian Mihai</a>.</p>\n<h3>What&#8217;s your secret to building such a large following?</h3>\n<blockquote><p>The secret is to do something you’re passionate about, something you care deeply about. Because if you do so, odds are that someone else will relate to what you’re doing. If every post you write means something to you, it’ll undoubtedly mean something to other people, too.</p>\n<p>Another key aspect is consistency. It’s not all about quantity — posting every day, for instance — but also about quality. Readers should know what to expect every time they get notified that you posted something new on your blog.</p>\n<p>Blogging is not a numbers game. Yes, as you become more popular it’s easy to lose track of things; it becomes more and more difficult to realize that those numbers are actually people. Every like, comment, and follow is an action performed by another human being.</p>\n<p>Statistics only offer you a cold perspective of what’s going on with your blog, but what matters more is the level of interaction that you manage with fellow bloggers. Also, if you think too much about followers and such, you’re going to try too hard. And you’re going to fail.</p></blockquote>\n<h3>What types of posts perform better?</h3>\n<blockquote><p>It’s almost impossible to determine why some posts perform better than others. Sometimes it’s ironic, because you worked really hard on a certain piece — did a lot of research, tried to make it all come together in the most attractive way possible — and you just don’t get people to care enough to leave a comment. Other times, the exact opposite happens.</p>\n<p>Popularity simply means how many people relate to what you’re doing. Engagement means how many people care enough — whether they agree or disagree — to actually respond. The goal is to figure out what it is that makes people follow your blog. What type of posts do they enjoy reading most? That’s when your stats may prove useful. If you analyze the posts that perform better, you’ll see they’re often similar in theme, structure, and so on. That’s what readers want most.</p></blockquote>\n<p><em>Read <a href=\"https://dailypost.wordpress.com/2013/10/22/cristian-mihai/\" target=\"_blank\">this entire interview on blog growth and readership</a>.</em></p><br />  <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gocomments/pingomatic.wordpress.com/98/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/comments/pingomatic.wordpress.com/98/\" /></a> <img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=blog.pingomatic.com&blog=68432&post=98&subd=pingomatic&ref=&feed=1\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" />\";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, 12 Dec 2013 19:07:36 +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:20:\"Cheri Lucas Rowlands\";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:22;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\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:36:\"Dev Blog: WordPress 3.8 “Parker”\";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:33:\"http://wordpress.org/news/?p=2765\";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:41:\"http://wordpress.org/news/2013/12/parker/\";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:17553:\"<p>Version 3.8 of WordPress, named “Parker” in honor of <a href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlie_Parker\">Charlie Parker</a>, bebop innovator, is available <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/download/\">for download</a> or update in your WordPress dashboard.

With superior contrast and large, comfortable type, the new design is easy to read and a pleasure to navigate.</p>\n<hr />\n<h2 class=\"aligncenter\">WordPress on every device</h2>\n<p><img class=\"alignright  wp-image-2984\" alt=\"responsive\" src=\"http://i2.wp.com/wpdotorg.files.wordpress.com/2013/12/responsive.jpg?resize=255%2C255\" />We all access the internet in different ways. Smartphone, tablet, notebook, desktop — no matter what you use, WordPress will adapt and you’ll feel right at home.</p>\n<h3>High definition at high speed</h3>\n<p>WordPress is sharper than ever with new vector-based icons that scale to your screen. By ditching pixels, pages load significantly faster, too.</p>\n<hr />\n<h2 class=\"aligncenter\">Admin color schemes to match your personality</h2>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-2954\" alt=\"colors\" src=\"http://i0.wp.com/wpdotorg.files.wordpress.com/2013/12/colors.jpg?resize=623%2C339\" /></p>\n<p>WordPress just got a colorful new update. We’ve included eight new admin color schemes so you can pick the one that suits you best.</p>\n<p>Color schemes can be previewed and changed from your Profile page.</p>\n<hr />\n<h2 class=\"aligncenter\">Refined theme management</h2>\n<p><img class=\"alignright  wp-image-2967\" alt=\"themes\" src=\"http://i0.wp.com/wpdotorg.files.wordpress.com/2013/12/themes.jpg?resize=360%2C344\" />The new themes screen lets you survey your themes at a glance. Or want more information? Click to discover more. Then sit back and use your keyboard’s navigation arrows to flip through every theme you’ve got.</p>\n<h3>Smoother widget experience</h3>\n<p>Drag-drag-drag. Scroll-scroll-scroll. Widget management can be complicated. With the new design, we’ve worked to streamline the widgets screen.</p>\n<p>Have a large monitor? Multiple widget areas stack side-by-side to use the available space. Using a tablet? Just tap a widget to add it.</p>\n<hr />\n<h2 class=\"aligncenter\">Twenty Fourteen, a sleek new magazine theme</h2>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-2789\" alt=\"The new Twenty Fourteen theme displayed on a laptop. tablet and phone\" src=\"http://i0.wp.com/wpdotorg.files.wordpress.com/2013/12/twentyfourteen.jpg?resize=692%2C275\" /></p>\n<h3>Turn your blog into a magazine</h3>\n<p>Create a beautiful magazine-style site with WordPress and Twenty Fourteen. Choose a grid or a slider to display featured content on your homepage. Customize your site with three widget areas or change your layout with two page templates.</p>\n<p>With a striking design that does not compromise our trademark simplicity, Twenty Fourteen is our most intrepid default theme yet.</p>\n<hr />\n<h2>Beginning of a new era</h2>\n<p>This release was led by Matt Mullenweg. This is our second release using the new plugin-first development process, with a much shorter timeframe than in the past. We think it’s been going great.

Version 3.8 has been in the oven for 49 days. This marks the second release that contains features that started off as plugins first, a <a title=\"http://www.wptavern.com/wordpress-core-development-goes-to-warp-speed-with-features-as-plugins-model\" href=\"http://www.wptavern.com/wordpress-core-development-goes-to-warp-speed-with-features-as-plugins-model\">development practice</a> we&#8217;ve covered on WPTavern at great length. It&#8217;s important to note that after upgrading to WordPress 3.8, you are strongly encouraged to disable and remove any of the features that started off as plugins. For example, since MP6 was merged into core, it&#8217;s no longer needed and will automatically be disabled after you upgrade.</p>\n<div id=\"attachment_13047\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http://i0.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/WP38About.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"size-large wp-image-13047\" alt=\"WordPress 3.8 About Page\" src=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/WP38About.jpg?resize=500%2C300\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">WordPress 3.8 About Page</p></div>\n<p><span id=\"more-11632\"></span></p>\n<h3>A New Theme Experience (Formerly Known As THX)</h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_13010\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/WP38THX.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"size-large wp-image-13010\" alt=\"WordPress 3.8 Theme Experience\" src=\"http://i0.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/WP38THX.jpg?resize=500%2C259\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">The New WordPress Theme Experience</p></div>\n<p>Browsing and switching themes from the backend of WordPress is now a much better experience thanks to a completely revamped themes page. The themes page now has larger thumbnails making it easier to browse themes at a glance. Clicking the theme details link displays a large screenshot of the theme as well as a detailed description on the right hand side.</p>\n<h3>Widgets Area Chooser (Formerly Known As The Widget Area Chooser Plugin)</h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_13015\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/WP38WidgetManagement.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-13015\" alt=\"WordPress 3.8 Widget Management\" src=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/WP38WidgetManagement.jpg?resize=269%2C253\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">New Way To Manage Widgets</p></div>\n<p>The days of scrolling endlessly to manage Widgets are over. WordPress 3.8 enhances the Widget management pages in a few key areas. Sidebars now make better use of free space on wide screen monitors by adding a side-by-side display. You no longer have to drag widgets into the sidebar, although you&#8217;ll still be able to. An alternative method is to click on the widget and select the sidebar you&#8217;d like to have it displayed on. Select the sidebar location and click the add widget button. This is a huge improvement, especially for those who use a lot of widgets.</p>\n<h3>A Refined Dashboard With Widget Improvements (Formerly Known As DASH)</h3>\n<p>The WordPress 3.8 dashboard has reworked a number of widgets to make them more useful. During the development phase, the <a title=\"http://make.wordpress.org/ui/2013/10/11/dash-update-4/\" href=\"http://make.wordpress.org/ui/2013/10/11/dash-update-4/\">incoming links widget was removed</a> since it routinely didn&#8217;t work. The WordPress Blog, Other WordPress News, and Plugins widgets were combined to form the new WordPress News widget. The Right Now widget has been renamed to &#8220;<em>At a Glance</em>&#8220;. This widget shows how many posts, pages and comments are on the site as well as the current version of WordPress installed. Akismet stats now make up the bottom portion of the widget.</p>\n<div id=\"attachment_13026\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http://i0.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/WP38DashboardRevamp.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"size-large wp-image-13026\" alt=\"Removed, Merged, And Revamped Dashboard Widgets\" src=\"http://i0.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/WP38DashboardRevamp.jpg?resize=500%2C240\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Removed, Merged, And Revamped Dashboard Widgets</p></div>\n<p>Recent Comments was merged into the new Activity widget which also shows any scheduled posts and the five most recently published posts. Last but not least, QuickPress was renamed to Quick Drafts which also houses the Recent Drafts widget. There is no longer an option to specify how many columns the dashboard has. Instead, the number of columns will automatically change based on the available screen real estate. Developers can hook into the activity widget and add additional information to it.</p>\n<h3>WordPress Backend Redesign (Formerly Known As MP6)</h3>\n<p>The most noticeable change in WordPress 3.8 is the renovated backend design. This redesign has been <a title=\"http://make.wordpress.org/ui/2013/03/09/as-a-continuation-of-the-work-begun-in/\" href=\"http://make.wordpress.org/ui/2013/03/09/as-a-continuation-of-the-work-begun-in/\">nine months in the making</a> with the creation of the MP6 plugin. The new design is aesthetically pleasing to the eyes. Typography has gotten some major improvements thanks to the use of Open Sans.</p>\n<div id=\"attachment_13027\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/WP38AdminColorSchemes.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"size-large wp-image-13027\" alt=\"WordPress 3.8 Has Eight Different Color Schemes\" src=\"http://i0.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/WP38AdminColorSchemes.jpg?resize=500%2C156\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">WordPress 3.8 Has Eight Different Color Schemes</p></div>\n<p>If dark colors are not your style, WordPress 3.8 ships with eight different color schemes. My personal favorite is Midnight. It&#8217;s possible that in the near future, a large number of color schemes will be available via an add-on plugin.</p>\n<h3>The New Default Theme TwentyFourteen</h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_13028\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/WP38TwentyFourteenDefaultThemes.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-13028\" alt=\"WordPress 3.8 Default Theme TwentyFourteen\" src=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/WP38TwentyFourteenDefaultThemes.jpg?resize=300%2C190\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">WordPress 3.8 Default Theme TwentyFourteen</p></div>\n<p>TwentyFourteen marks the first time a new WordPress default theme is available for a full year. TwentyFourteen, previously known as Further, was originally created as a theme for WordPress.com. Based on Further&#8217;s success, it became an ideal candidate to be turned into the default theme. The theme is based around a magazine concept and includes up to six featured content blocks. Use the three widget areas to customize your website, and change your content’s layout with a full width page template and a contributor page to show off your authors.</p>\n<h3>Responsive Admin Design</h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_13045\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http://i0.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/WP38ResponsiveDesign.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"size-large wp-image-13045\" alt=\"WordPress 3.8 Responsive Admin\" src=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/WP38ResponsiveDesign.jpg?resize=500%2C183\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">WordPress 3.8 Backend Is Now Responsive</p></div>\n<p>The backend of WordPress 3.8 is now responsive. The WordPress backend now adapts to any device such as a smartphone, tablet, notebook, or desktop. This is incredibly helpful to those who use WordPress mobile apps on smartphones and need to access specific administrative functions in the backend of WordPress. In previous versions, navigating through the backend on a mobile device was painfully slow. Some of the increase in speed can be attributed to using vector-based icons that scale to your screen. By discarding pixels, pages load faster.</p>\n<h3>WordPress 3.8 Is The Best Release Yet</h3>\n<p><div id=\"attachment_13172\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/CharlieParker.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/CharlieParker.jpg?resize=217%2C300\" alt=\"WordPress 3.8 Charlie Parker\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13172\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Charlie Parker</p></div>I didn&#8217;t realize how many changes are in WordPress 3.8 until I wrote this post. There are a lot of user facing features and enhancements that will take some getting used to. However, I think all of the improvements make it the best release so far. </p>\n<p>The default theme has a specific use case but I&#8217;m curious to see how the WordPress community will re-imagine TwentyFourteen using child themes. Last but not least, thank you to everyone who contributed to WordPress 3.8 either by way of submitting patches, reporting bugs, or beta testing the software. It&#8217;s your dedication that enabled 3.8 to ship on time.</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:\"Thu, 12 Dec 2013 17:00:46 +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:6:\"Jeffro\";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:24;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\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:32:\"Joseph: Giving Back to 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:31:\"https://josephscott.org/?p=9447\";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:66:\"https://josephscott.org/archives/2013/12/giving-back-to-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:1942:\"<p><img src=\"https://josephscott.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/wordpress-logo-simplified-rgb.png\" alt=\"wordpress-logo-simplified-rgb\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-9579\" /></p>\n<p>Last month 10up announced they were sponsoring Helen Hou-Sandi to work on core WordPress full time.  This has been a very positive trend, with Bluehost and DreamHost also dedicating full time positions to core WordPress development.  At Automattic we have entire team of people working on the WordPress.org project.</p>\n<p>Not everyone is in a position to have a full time developer or designer dedicated just to the WordPress project.  There are other ways of helping though.  A good example is <a href=\"http://www.wpsitecare.com/giving-back-wordpress/\" title=\"Funny how different people get the same good idea at the same time.\">WP Site Care, who is dedicating time each week for employees to help in the WordPress support forums</a>.  Ryan Sullivan summed it up nicely at the end of his announcement:</p>\n<blockquote><p>\nI also realized that everyone has a place. We don’t employ anyone with core contributor skills here (yet), but we’re damn good at support, and that’s something we can give back in a very meaningful and effective way.</p>\n<p>So I’m proud to announce that all WP Site Care team members will be contributing time weekly to the WordPress Support Forums and Docs.\n</p></blockquote>\n<p>I like the idea of building off of your existing strengths to help out the rest of the WordPress community.

Alongside some big numbers, Collis reflects on the past seven years of Envato&#8217;s existence. <em>&#8220;When I look back at the seven years of Envato&#8217;s life so far, I certainly underestimated what this company and community was capable of achieving. This in turn makes me wonder how much more we can do in the next seven.&#8221;</em> Envato is the parent company of a number of successful marketplaces such as <a title=\"http://themeforest.net/\" href=\"http://themeforest.net/\">ThemeForest</a> and <a title=\"http://codecanyon.net/\" href=\"http://codecanyon.net/\">CodeCanyon</a>. <span id=\"more-13102\"></span></p>\n<p><strong>Some of their impressive stats for 2013 include:</strong></p>\n<ul>\n<li>Their community of authors, affiliates, freelancers and instructors took their lifetime earnings with Envato past $140,000,000.</li>\n<li>There are over 720 hours of educational video content and 16,000 free tutorials and articles</li>\n<li>The company sponsored a number of community events such as WordCamps, as well as open source projects like Ghost</li>\n<li>Envato continued to give to charitable organizations with a total lifetime contribution of over half a million dollars.</li>\n</ul>\n<h3>Communities Can Turn Against You In A Flash</h3>\n<p>The marketplaces have provided a number of opportunities for developers to make money that otherwise, didn&#8217;t exist. Their community has played a large role in Envato&#8217;s success. After reading the Envato wrap up post, it&#8217;s clear that Collis and team realize this. </p>\n<blockquote><p>Now that we know who we want to be, we have to live up to it. That&#8217;s why I believe that we are now entering a new phase of Envato&#8217;s life, that I would call Community-Building.</p></blockquote>\n<p>It&#8217;s awesome to see the company embracing their community and watching it pay off for both parties. However, a word of caution: A community can be a fickle thing. Envato has proven that a community can be forgiving if large changes are discussed before their implementation. A great example is when Envato <a href=\"http://notes.envato.com/news/survey-results-about-gpl-opt-in-choice/\" title=\"http://notes.envato.com/news/survey-results-about-gpl-opt-in-choice/\">changed the licensing options</a> for theme and plugin authors on ThemeForest and CodeCanyon. While everyone didn&#8217;t agree with the decisions made, members had a chance to voice their opinions and participate in the discussion. Envato needs to continue giving their community the opportunity to decide which direction the ship travels. </p>\n<p>Collis, as acting ship captain of Envato, will continue to be faced with the challenges of making decisions that the community disagrees with. It&#8217;s at these moments Envato can see what type of community they really have surrounding them. Will they stand by the company? Or line up outside the walls with pitchforks? The one thing that helped Envato become so successful is the same thing that can destroy the company.</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, 11 Dec 2013 22:35:49 +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:6:\"Jeffro\";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:29;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\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:82:\"WPTavern: Jetpack 2.7 Introduces Google+ Publicize Support and Adds Cloudup oEmbed\";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:32:\"http://www.wptavern.com/?p=13091\";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:95:\"http://www.wptavern.com/jetpack-2-7-introduces-google-publicize-support-and-adds-cloudup-oembed\";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:4231:\"<p><a href=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/jetpack.png\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/jetpack.png?resize=150%2C150\" alt=\"Jetpack Logo\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-9209\" /></a><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/jetpack/\" target=\"_blank\">Jetpack</a> 2.7 was released today, featuring <a href=\"http://jetpack.me/2013/12/11/jetpack-2-7-publicize/\" target=\"_blank\">Google+ support for Publicize</a>, which enables you to shoot posts straight to G+ after you publish them. </p>\n<p>However, the Jetpack team has packed more into this release than they let on in the <a href=\"http://jetpack.me/2013/12/11/jetpack-2-7-publicize/\" target=\"_blank\">announcement</a>. Here&#8217;s a quick overview of the major enhancements and bug fixes included in 2.7.<span id=\"more-13091\"></span></p>\n<h4>Cloudup oEmbed Support</h4>\n<p><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/cloudup.png\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://i0.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/cloudup.png?resize=150%2C150\" alt=\"cloudup\" class=\"alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-12353\" /></a>Last week we <a href=\"http://www.wptavern.com/new-plugin-adds-cloudup-oembed-support-for-wordpress\" target=\"_blank\">featured the new Cloudup oEmbed plugin</a> that allows you to simply paste a <a href=\"http://cloudup.com\" target=\"_blank\">Cloudup</a> URL on its own line to insert content.</p>\n<p>It&#8217;s convenient to have this packed into Jetpack because Cloudup usage is likely to explode after it&#8217;s out of beta. If you previously installed the plugin for Cloudup oEmbed, you can now delete it if you&#8217;re running Jetpack. If you haven&#8217;t yet tried the Cloudup file sharing service, you can <a href=\"https://cloudup.com/signup/manual?code=matt\" target=\"_blank\">use this link</a> to sign up as a beta user.</p>\n<h4>G+ Publicize for Profiles and Pages</h4>\n<p><div id=\"attachment_13122\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/publicize-settings.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/publicize-settings.jpg?resize=294%2C356\" alt=\"Publicize Settings\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13122\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Publicize Settings</p></div>Publicize now allows you to link up a G+ profile or page account. Once you update Jetpack to 2.7, go to the post editor to view your current Publicize linked accounts. Click on the &#8216;Settings&#8217; link to authenticate for the G+ profile/page you want to use.</p>\n<p>In order to test out the new G+ Publicize feature we linked it up to our brand new <a href=\"https://plus.google.com/106331420450854425959/\" target=\"_blank\">WP Tavern page</a> where you can follow us for all the latest WordPress news. During this process, we discovered that posts automatically share privately from the WordPress app created, unless you change the app&#8217;s privacy setting to public. Your G+ page settings should have a menu item where you can edit the privacy of posts shared.</p>\n<p>If you publish a high volume of content, then you know it&#8217;s a pain to manually share your posts on every social network. Jetpack&#8217;s new G+ Publicize Support allows you to mark one thing off your daily list.</p>\n<h4>Enhancements and Improvements for Upcoming WordPress 3.8 Release</h4>\n<p>Jetpack 2.7 includes some enhancements and fixes that will get your site ready for WordPress 3.8 and the new default theme. This release adds infinite scroll support for Twenty Fourteen. It also has some fixes for Jetpack&#8217;s <a href=\"http://jetpack.me/support/featured-content/\" target=\"_blank\">Featured Content</a> module:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Moved Settings to Customizer, provided option to set default tag as fallback, specified all supported post-types rather than just additional ones</li>\n<li>Added compatibility with &#8216;additional_post_types&#8217; theme support argument and comment updates</li>\n</ul>\n<p>For a comprehensive list of everything that&#8217;s new and update, check out the Jetpack <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/jetpack/changelog/\" target=\"_blank\">changelog</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, 11 Dec 2013 22:10:47 +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:13:\"Sarah Gooding\";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:30;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\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:68:\"WPTavern: Coming Soon: An Issues Tracker for WordPress Documentation\";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:32:\"http://www.wptavern.com/?p=13064\";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:81:\"http://www.wptavern.com/coming-soon-an-issues-tracker-for-wordpress-documentation\";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:5528:\"<p>WordPress documentation is about to improve by leaps and bounds.  At the moment, trying to get involved contributing to documentation can be quite confusing. Unless you know the current docs inside and out, it&#8217;s not easy to find gaps or missing pieces that need attention. That&#8217;s where an issues tracker comes into play.</p>\n<h3>What is a documentation issues tracker?</h3>\n<p>A docs issues tracker is to documentation what trac is to code. The issues tracker provides a central place where users and contributors can report and track progress on issues specific to documentation.<span id=\"more-13064\"></span></p>\n<p>The Drupal project has a <a href=\"https://drupal.org/project/issues/documentation\" target=\"_blank\">nice example</a> if you want to see one in action.</p>\n<p>The idea originated with the WordPress Docs Team. When Siobhan McKeown <a href=\"http://make.wordpress.org/docs/2013/08/15/an-issue-tracker-for-documentation/\" target=\"_blank\">outlined</a> the idea for the tracker, she cited two important problems that the issues tracker will solve:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>People want to contribute to docs but don’t have a central list of tasks that they can sit down and tackle</li>\n<li>More and more contributor days are happening and our issue tracker will be a place where organizers can find tasks for the day</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Example issues one might report include documentation that&#8217;s out of date, incomplete docs, pages that need editing, missing sections, a dead link, code examples that are broken or need updating.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://profiles.wordpress.org/karmatosed\" target=\"_blank\">Tammie Lister</a> designed a mockup of the tracker planned for WordPress:</p>\n<div id=\"attachment_13088\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/tracker-mockup.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/tracker-mockup.jpg?resize=560%2C576\" alt=\"Mockup of Documentation Issues Tracker\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13088\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mockup of Documentation Issues Tracker</p></div>\n<p>As you can see, it&#8217;s simpler than trac in many ways and designed to be easy for anyone to quickly create a report on an issue.</p>\n<h3>The Docs Tracker is Now in Development</h3>\n<p><div id=\"attachment_13067\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/sam.jpeg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/sam.jpeg?resize=150%2C150\" alt=\"Samuel Sidler\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-13067\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Samuel Sidler</p></div>I had the chance to chat with <a href=\"http://profiles.wordpress.org/samuelsidler\" target=\"_blank\">Samuel Sidler</a>. He is helping to organize the tracker project, which is code named &#8220;Documentron&#8221;.</p>\n<p>To get an understanding of the system that contributors have been using so far, I asked him how documentation issues are currently being resolved. It seems that right now, there is no central place for everyone to jump in and work together. He replied:</p>\n<blockquote><p>Currently, documentation issues are resolved and tracked manually by individual contributors. There isn&#8217;t an easy way to report issues or request new documentation. The documentation issue tracker will allow two things: 1) anyone can report an issue with documentation and 2) the docs team can track all open issues to have a better picture of the state of documentation across the project.</p></blockquote>\n<p>Sidler believes that the new issues tracker will help open up contribution to WordPress docs in a major way. <strong>&#8220;The tracker is focused on making things easier for the docs team first and foremost. But any community member will be able to report issues to it, opening the door to participation,&#8221;</strong> he said. Besides the Docs Team, he anticipates that the Support Team will also be likely to use the tracker for the documentation they manage.</p>\n<p>The designs have been finalized and Sidler reports that Otto has happily agreed to develop the new tracker. How soon will we see it in use on WordPress.org? Sidler says, &#8220;It&#8217;s hard to say exactly how long an issue tracker will take to build, especially with the upcoming holidays, but we&#8217;re closer than we&#8217;ve ever been.&#8221; The plan is to roll it out in beta first and Sidler will be organizing users for testing. &#8220;We&#8217;ll put links on a few docs to test the reporting interface with end users before rolling it out to all documentation.&#8221;</p>\n<p>A documentation issues tracker is a must-have tool for any large open source project. Sidler is hoping that it will streamline issue management. </p>\n<blockquote><p>Ideally, more issues will get reported and then fixed with an issue tracker in place. Having an easy way for anyone to report an issue should increase the number of reported issues. Likewise, having a central place to track issues will make them easier to fix.</p></blockquote>\n<p>I&#8217;m excited to see the documentation issues tracker implemented on WordPress.org. It has the potential to exponentially increase the contribution to docs as well as collaboration among Docs Team members. If you&#8217;re eager to contribute to WordPress docs but don&#8217;t know where to get started, the tracker will help you to find a place to jump in. We&#8217;ll let you know when it&#8217;s live on WordPress.org.</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, 11 Dec 2013

href=\"http://meta.wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/3709/community-promotion-ads-2014/\" target=\"_blank\">voting</a> on ads to display in the sidebar of its forums for 2014. Every year the Community Promotion Ads are reset in December. These ads serve to promote anything that the community deems to be important. Usually, the ads are dedicated to promoting information and resources that benefit those in the community as well as potential new members who might be visiting. To be clear, these are not ads dedicated to commercial products.</p>\n<p>WordPress StackExchange lists a few examples of Community Promotion Ads, including open source plugins, power tools, events or conferences and anything that might be of genuine interest to WordPress people.<span id=\"more-12753\"></span></p>\n<h4>Cast Your Vote for the Most Useful Community Promotion Ads</h3>\n<p>Cycling the ads every year helps to keep them fresh and current. The WordPress StackExchange is a place where many WordPress users turn to for answers and it&#8217;s important for community members to vote up the ads that will be the most useful and relevant.</p>\n<p>Right now, there are only four ads up for votes, but the WordPress community has many more quality resources that could be included here. They&#8217;re still taking new submissions for Community Promotion Ads if you&#8217;d like to send in an image and URL. Voting will continue throughout December.

The UI for hierarchical content makes it difficult to understand the organization of pages and custom post types at a glance.</p>\n<p>Inspired by the column view in the OS X Finder, Alex King and the team at Crowd Favorite have created a similar interface for navigating pages/hierarchical CPTs in the WordPress admin. Their new <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/admin-column-view/\" target=\"_blank\">Admin Column View</a> plugin is now available in the WordPress plugin repository.</p>\n<p>This plugin introduces a Column View menu item under the Pages menu for viewing content in a more intuitive way. </p>\n<div id=\"attachment_12999\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/pages-column-view.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/pages-column-view.jpg?resize=560%2C321\" alt=\"Column view of pages\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12999\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Column view of pages</p></div>\n<p>Admin Column View does more than just redesign the Pages menu UI. It also includes some features that are not easy to see in a screenshot:<span id=\"more-12979\"></span></p>\n<ul>\n<li>Use drag and drop to re-order (set the &#8220;menu_order&#8221; property) pages/custom post types.</li>\n<li>Provides a link at each level to create a new page/custom post type at that level.</li>\n<li>Colored post status indicators: ie. private, draft, etc.</li>\n<li>Support for custom post types</li>\n</ul>\n<p>This expanded view shows the new page/CPT creation link and colored post status indicators in action:</p>\n<div id=\"attachment_12993\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/admin-column-view.png\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://i0.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/admin-column-view.png?resize=560%2C366\" alt=\"Admin Column View\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12993\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Admin Column View</p></div>\n<p>Admin interaction with the content is much easier to see in Alex King&#8217;s video walk-through:</p>\n<p></p>\n<h3>An Alternative Content Listing UI for WordPress as a CMS</h3>\n<p>Admin Column View is a very helpful plugin for sites using WordPress more heavily as a CMS. It provides instant context for hierarchical content, showing posts in relationship to those above and below. Plugins like this also open discussion about how the WordPress admin can be improved, although this way of arranging content may not be for everyone. </p>\n<p>Last Friday on our <a href=\"http://www.wptavern.com/wpweekly-episode-130-catching-up-with-matt-mullenweg\" target=\"_blank\">weekly podcast</a> Matt Mullenweg said, <strong>&#8220;I don&#8217;t think everyone&#8217;s WordPress should look the same.&#8221;</strong> This statement applies in this instance where sites with a large number of pages or CPTs might benefit from an alternative UI provided to organize content in the admin.</p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/admin-column-view/\" target=\"_blank\">Admin Column View</a> plugin was designed for the WordPress 3.8 admin refresh, so it won&#8217;t be outdated in a couple days when 3.8 is released.

At the event, I obtained a <a title=\"http://serverpress.com\" href=\"http://serverpress.com\">ServerPress.com</a> branded USB stick. Little did I know that this was no ordinary USB drive. <span id=\"more-12983\"></span></p>\n<h3>Making It Easy To Setup A Local Dev Environment For WordPress</h3>\n<p>ServerPress is a company devoted to making it as easy as possible to set up a local development environment for WordPress. ServerPress has two different editions of their DesktopServer software. <a title=\"http://serverpress.com/membership-options/\" href=\"http://serverpress.com/membership-options/\">DesktopServer Premium</a> costs $99 per year and includes access to priority support, content, additional features and multisite support. The DesktopServer limited edition is free to use but only has access to a limited amount of documentation and support. The limited version is what was packaged on the USB stick. Both editions support Macintosh OS X 10.4.11-10.9.0 and Windows XP/Vista/7/8.</p>\n<h3>Automate The Configuration of New Websites With Blueprints</h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_12995\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/DesktopServerBlueprints.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-12995\" alt=\"Desktop Server Blueprints\" src=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/DesktopServerBlueprints.jpg?resize=441%2C168\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Easily Install Different WordPress Versions</p></div>\n<p>The WordPress version that came with my USB drive was WordPress 3.6. We are now at 3.7.1 with 3.8 around the corner. I contacted ServerPress.com support via email and they promptly replied with an explanation on how to update the version of WordPress that&#8217;s used when creating a new test site. DesktopLimited has support for something called Blueprints. Blueprints help accelerate the development process by automating the configuration of new sites.</p>\n<p>By placing WordPress versions (<strong>zip files</strong>) inside of the Blueprints folder, you can select which version of WordPress will be installed during the creation of a new testing site. You can also place commonly used themes and plugins inside of the Blueprints folder. This technique provides a quick and easy way to test themes and plugins on multiple versions of WordPress.</p>\n<h3>DesktopServer Limited Is A Great Substitute For WAMP</h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_12998\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/DesktopServerFeaturesComparisonChart.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"size-large wp-image-12998\" alt=\"Desktop Server Features Comparison Chart\" src=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/DesktopServerFeaturesComparisonChart.jpg?resize=500%2C247\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Feature Comparison Chart</p></div>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.wampserver.com/\" title=\"http://www.wampserver.com/\">WAMP</a> installs Apache, MySQL, phpMyAdmin, php 5.3, and Xdebug. DesktopServer Limited Edition has all of that plus the ability to install specific WordPress versions, domain name mapping, automated virtual hosts creation and can copy WordPress sites. If you&#8217;re going to use WAMP to setup a local environment for WordPress development, it makes sense to use DesktopServer instead as it provides everything WAMP offers and so much more. </p>\n<p>While I&#8217;ve only scratched the surface, I&#8217;ve used the software enough to justify ditching WAMP and using DesktopServer Limited from now on.

The folks at <a href=\"http://labs.webershandwick.com/wpforglass/2013/10/27/introducing-wpforglass/\" target=\"_blank\">Weber Shandwick</a>, a PR and communications firm, have developed the first WordPress plugin that interfaces with Google Glass to publish content.</p>\n<p>wpForGlass is currently operated by touch, although the creators plan to add voice commands by the time Google Glass officially launches. The plugin makes it possible for users to take a photo or video and instantly send it to a self-hosted WordPress blog. You can also speak a caption before your media is uploaded.<span id=\"more-12947\"></span></p>\n<p></p>\n<h3>How wpForGlass Works</h3>\n<p><a href=\"https://github.com/webershandwick/wpForGlass\" target=\"_blank\">wpForGlass</a> makes use of Google’s <a href=\"https://developers.google.com/glass/\" target=\"_blank\">Mirror API</a> to transmit your data through Google server.  When setting up the plugin you&#8217;ll need to have an SSL certificate, ability to set up cron jobs and Mirror API Access in order to create an OAuth 2.0 client ID for your application. It&#8217;s important to note that the shared media is processed on Google servers and then downloaded to the WordPress site, which may take a few minutes to process. </p>\n<h3>wpForGlass Adds a New Dimension to Journalism and Live Blogging</h3>\n<p>This plugin has the potential to be revolutionary for journalism. It creates a fast lane for delivering content and news to people in a live environment. Immediacy and hands-free publishing are the real benefits of wpForGlass. Events can be recorded and transmitted in near real-time by regular people without requiring a live news station camera feed, further exploding the capacity of the blogosphere to be the real journalists on the scene. </p>\n<p>The ability to shoot and transmit images and video to a blog in a hands-free environment also opens up a new interactive capacity for bloggers, documentarians and journalists who, until now, have had their hands shackled to a notepad, a phone or a camera while attempting to observe and report.</p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https://github.com/webershandwick/wpForGlass\" target=\"_blank\">wpForGlass</a> code is open source so Glass Explorers can take advantage of it right now and developers can fork it or contribute to improve the plugin.</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:\"Tue, 10 Dec 2013 17:39:09 +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:13:\"Sarah Gooding\";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:13:\"\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:61:\"WordPress.tv: Scott Basgaard: Help Yourself by Helping Others\";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:28:\"http://wordpress.tv/?p=27074\";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:\"http://wordpress.tv/2013/12/10/scott-basgaard-help-yourself-by-helping-others-2/\";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:722:\"<div id=\"v-rIGcL9AB-1\" class=\"video-player\">\n</div><br />  <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gocomments/wptv.wordpress.com/27074/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/comments/wptv.wordpress.com/27074/\" /></a> <img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=wordpress.tv&blog=5089392&post=27074&subd=wptv&ref=&feed=1\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" /><div><a href=\"http://wordpress.tv/2013/12/10/scott-basgaard-help-yourself-by-helping-others-2/\"><img alt=\"wceu-2013-Help Yourself by Helping Others-Scott Basgaard\" src=\"http://videos.videopress.com/rIGcL9AB/wceu-2013-help-yourself-by-helping-others-scott-basgaard_std.original.jpg\" width=\"160\" height=\"120\" /></a></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:\"Tue, 10 Dec 2013 08:31:43 +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:\"WordPress.tv\";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:42;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\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:84:\"WordPress.tv: Marko Heijnen &amp;

That is until I reviewed the support forum for Jetpack and <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-access-your-stats-in-the-dashboard-widget-read-this\" title=\"http://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-access-your-stats-in-the-dashboard-widget-read-this\">noticed a thread</a> dedicated to the Stats widget. <span id=\"more-12909\"></span></p>\n<p>According to Jeremy Herve, a developer for team Jetpack, you can still access your stats by browsing to <strong>Jetpack > Site Stats</strong>. You just can&#8217;t view them from the dashboard. There is a block of code that you can use to fix the problem if you&#8217;re impatient. For most users however, I recommend waiting as Jeremy assures us that this will be fixed in the next version.</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:\"Mon, 09 Dec 2013 22:08:42 +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:6:\"Jeffro\";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:45;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\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:58:\"WPTavern: A Generator For the WordPress Plugin Boilerplate\";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:32:\"http://www.wptavern.com/?p=12860\";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:72:\"http://www.wptavern.com/a-generator-for-the-wordpress-plugin-boilerplate\";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:2599:\"<p>The <a href=\"https://github.com/tommcfarlin/WordPress-Plugin-Boilerplate\" target=\"_blank\">WordPress Plugin Boilerplate</a> is a popular tool for getting started with plugin development.

It can sometimes be tough to track down who changed what and when they did it, especially on sites with multiple administrators. </p>\n<p><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/stream/\" title=\"WordPress Stream Plugin\" target=\"_blank\">Stream</a> is a new tracking tool that provides a log of specific activities performed by logged-in users in the backend. It&#8217;s a free plugin on WordPress.org that gives you information on recent logins, menu changes, plugin updates, content created/deleted, widgets activated/deactivated, theme changes, and much more.<span id=\"more-12815\"></span></p>\n<p><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/stream-records.png\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/stream-records.png?resize=560%2C291\" alt=\"stream plugin records\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12878\" /></a></p>\n<p>The great thing about this plugin is that it doesn&#8217;t display information in an ugly old error log style. It creates a beautiful table that fits nicely into the admin design with user avatars and sorting capabilities.</p>\n<p>Records can also be searched and the plugin allows you to filter by date, users, context and actions. It even shows which IP address the event originated from. Sorting by actions allows you to find items such as the following: activated, assigned, attached, edited, uploaded, password reset and more.</p>\n<div id=\"attachment_12911\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http://i0.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/sort-by-context1.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/sort-by-context1.jpg?resize=560%2C355\" alt=\"Stream Records: Sort by Context\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12911\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Stream Records: Sort by Context</p></div>\n<h3>Using Stream to Unravel Support Knots</h3>\n<p>This plugin might be an excellent solution for those who perform maintenance and troubleshooting for clients. Sometimes clients cannot remember what action they took in the admin to cause changes to the site. The Stream plugin goes a long way to help with troubleshooting. In the very least it can help you eliminate things like changes to plugins or themes while tracking down the source of a problem.</p>\n<p>The Stream settings page gives you an option to determine how long records should be saved before being purged. You can set this depending on the amount of user activity you usually have on the site in question. It also includes an option to reset your stream by deleting all of the activity records in the database.</p>\n<div id=\"attachment_12917\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/stream-settings.png\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://i0.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/stream-settings.png?resize=560%2C291\" alt=\"stream settings page\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12917\" /></a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Stream Settings Page</p></div>\n<p>Please note that <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/stream/\" target=\"_blank\">Stream</a> requires PHP 5.3 or higher. <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/stream/\" target=\"_blank\">Download</a> the plugin for free from the WordPress plugin repository or via the plugins panel in the WordPress admin.
