Kittens I need help. What can be done to backup a website if we are logged out of all admin panels? I'm going through a hell of a divorce process and looks like bogolepov.eu is a hostage now. And it's not just a website. It's a baby. I hope the sanity will be restored and I'm panicking over nothing. But I also want to know what to do in the worst case scenario. Or since the website is up now. Thank you

My wife has asked me to look for tech events in Hawaii in late July /early August this summer.
Any #WordPress or #PHP or #cybersecurity events going on? Barcamps? Meetups? Etc? I'd love to have a reason to crash things on short notice
I wish that WordPress would add an option to create a new menu in the "Navigation" section of the site editor.
Right now, the only way to create a new menu is to duplicate an existing menu and then edit it. This is a HUGE P.I.T.A. for me because the site I'm working on already has 20 menus ... and I'm not done yet.
There is a lot of content on this site, so we have section menus in the sidebar. This can't be a unique situation, can it?
I want the old menu interface back.
Have been playing recently with wordpress activitypub, friends, enable mastodon apps and event bridge for activitypub plugins ... getting very close now to use wordpress as my fediverse server !
Very impressed :-) The team is very responsive.

I found something that appears to do what I need. No extra fluff. It hasn't been updated in 3 months, but I won't need it after the site has gone live.

WordPress developers ... have you ever used a plugin that lets you set up custom status for pages ... and show the status as a column in the list of pages in the admin?
The client is only done with some of the content for the site I'm working on. I'm creating pages even if the content isn't ready so that I can set up the menus. But there are so many pages, it's getting hard to keep track.
I just need a visual flag & maybe a filter.

Tomorrow is #GAAD, and so far 73 people have pledged 336 hours to work on making the WordPress-powered web more accessible! Will you join us? https://equalizedigital.com/gaad2025/
Wait, so the #WordPress Foundation listed dotorg as their organization website on their application? Wouldn't that contradict Matt's claim that it's his personal website?
(Unless it's his personal foundation, which is probably true in all ways except legally)

can someone recommend a http-signature library/implementation in #php ?
People, when you build a site, Especially in a #CMS, please change the favicon.ico (or whatever the stylesheet points to) so it's not the framework logo.
I'm *Specifically* looking at you, #WordPress developers. This is a pervasive problem in those circles.
What if #ghost and/or #wordpress builds the perfect home for a writer/podcaster on the web, that also doubles as their social media dashboard? Could they kill #substack and #xitter? For that to happen, we'd probably also need #threads and #bluesky to fully federate by default. #SocialWeb

WordPress wraps a table with a <figure> element in the Table block?
Why???
I'm starting to feel like the block editor suffers from wrapper-itis.
Your Site, Your Rules: Filtering Fediverse Activity
