I'm new to using #Jetpack & would be appreciative to tips for beginners.
#WordPress #Blockthemes Gerade wieder einen hartgesottenen Pagebuilder-Fan in die wunderbare Welt der Blöcke eingeführt. Nur eine Frage konnte ich nicht beantworten: Wenn ich einen Abfrageloop verwende, gibt es einen Block (Plugin?), mit dem ich eine nur auf diese Abfrage beschränkte Suche auf der Seite hinzufügen kann? @pmmueller @hgg @simon @Sascha @threadi

The Internet Is Full of Platforms. Only One Still Feels Like a Bar.
The modern internet is obsessed with platforms that promise simplicity while quietly turning you into a product. Every few months there’s a new place to publish, a shiny dashboard, a minimalist interface, some founder swearing this time it’s different. The pitch is always the same: move here, start fresh, build your audience. Lately I’ve been circling that same drain, wondering if it was finally time to pack up and leave WordPress behind.

Gestern habe ich versucht ein neues, schönes Theme zu integrieren, aber diese neuen, überdesignten machen einem das Leben auch nicht leichter. 🙄

WP-CLI • Pour celles et ceux qui veulent aller vite sans plugins dans #wordpress - Vous pouvez aussi coupler les commandes de wp-cli avec des scripts bash. Utile par exemple pour sauvegarder une base de donnée sur un #nextcloud en appelant le script dans un CRON.
That was a fun bug
The awesome ActivityPub plugin used a new content type for the feed reader, and I was not filtering which post types I show comments for on Open Mention’s front page. Thus, the front page looked a bit strange. A little bit of pooking about my template code, and that is now fixed. While mirroring a bunch of Mastodon stuff might be a cool project, I’m not sure this is the right one to do that (just yet).
I have to admit, it had me scratching my head for five minutes. To be honest, I should have been filtering to begin with, so this sort of did me a favour. Lessons learned and all that.
