Text of the page (random words):
d it people prefer to know there are real humans behind things can i make a simple placeholder maybe it depends on what you put on the placeholder page and again if you re a service if the placeholder says coming soon then no what about lorem ipsum pages if your domain is filled with placeholder we consider it to be incomplete and will point out the problem same goes for clearly fake addresses and those about pages that all have the same face why does it matter if my personal site exists because you told us and by extension all your users this is who i am if your personal site is coming soon or has a placeholder no one can make a judgement on you save to say you re a dev who can t make a website and yes that is patently unfair we know but that s what people will think heck they complain to us every time we miss it we would rather you not start in a bad place why was i told not to use trademarks in my url because using a trademark in the domain name violates trademark law using a company s trademark in a url as a domain name in whole or in part like wordpress example com may constitute a violation of the company s trademark rights see brookfield communications inc v west coast entertainment corp 174 f 3d 1036 9th cir 1999 what you can do instead is have example com trademark that is generally allowed keep in mind some organizations like wordpress will allow the short versions so wpexample com would be fine others like woocommerce have more restrictions and actually prohibit wooexample com always check the trademark guidelines first reminder courtney robertson 7 06

party libraries are up to date from their recent post starting october 26 2022 we will begin deleting inactive accounts and associated storage for accounts that have been inactive for over a year starting november 28 2022 we plan to stop offering free product plans and plan to start shutting down free dynos and data services we will be sending out a series of email communications to affected users roughly 300 plugins use heroku services many for free if you are one of those free users please make sure you make arrangements to either pay for the plan or replace your service as of december 2022 if people report your plugin plugin a plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a wordpress website they can extend functionality or add new features to your wordpress websites wordpress plugins are written in the php programming language and integrate seamlessly with wordpress these can be free in the wordpress org plugin directory https wordpress org plugins or can be cost based plugin from a third party breaks because of that shut down we will close your plugin until it s corrected there s always the probability you re not going to want to or be able to migrate services that s okay too if you want to close your plugin you can do that yourself i would recommend pushing a final version that warns people on day x this will stop working if that s your choice the one thing that s really going to trip people up are those libraries though a lot of 3rd party libraries make use of heroku and not all are going to update we re going to do a sweep and let as many people know as we can but we wanted this to be public since a lot of people miss emails and also if your plugin isn t impacted but one you coordinate with is well you should know

function while it s generally safe to use setlocale to get various information about a specific locale it s essential to understand that using setlocale to perform string manipulations has significant disadvantages the goal of this article is to raise awareness about those disadvantages disadvantages so what are they firstly setlocale is not thread safe if you run wordpress on shared hosting you may experience sudden changes in locale settings as though your plugin plugin a plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a wordpress website they can extend functionality or add new features to your wordpress websites wordpress plugins are written in the php programming language and integrate seamlessly with wordpress these can be free in the wordpress org plugin directory https wordpress org plugins or can be cost based plugin from a third party never called setlocale string functions that rely on setlocale to detect the current locale don t process some characters correctly even if the correct locale is set with setlocale take a look at this 3vl4 org example the expected output of the script is ž but the actual output is ů recommendations these are some recommendations on using setlocale that could make using it safer don t use setlocale to process strings in different encodings unless absolutely unavoidable don t use setlocale with lc_all instead specify the exact category category the category taxonomy lets you group posts content together that share a common bond categories are pre defined and broad ranging of functions you need e g lc_monetary lc_numeric if you need to change the current locale you must change it back to the previous value in order to preserve thread sanity at this time c should be used as the default locale setting best practices security julia golomb 8 25 pm on july 7 2022 tags make wordpress org community 4 p2 xpost 53 x post contributor teams submit wcus 2022 table leads signup form

proposal 2 proposal for a wordpress plugin checker for a long time wordpress has had the theme check plugin a tool which statically analyzes a given wordpress theme to determine if it follows certain theme development requirements and best practices this post proposes defining and implementing a similar tool for wordpress plugins that analyzes a given wordpress plugin plugin a plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a wordpress website they can extend functionality or add new features to your wordpress websites wordpress plugins are written in the php programming language and integrate seamlessly with wordpress these can be free in the wordpress org plugin directory https wordpress org plugins or can be cost based plugin from a third party and flags any violations of plugin development requirements and best practices with errors or warnings it should cover various aspects of plugin development from basic requirements like correct usage of internationalization functions to accessibility accessibility accessibility commonly shortened to a11y refers to the design of products devices services or environments for people with disabilities the concept of accessible design ensures both direct access i e unassisted and indirect access meaning compatibility with a person s assistive technology for example computer screen readers https en wikipedia org wiki accessibility performance and security best practices this post is based on an earlier proposal document that has been reviewed and discussed by the performance working group over the last several weeks see original slack message sharing the proposal goal and use cases the goal of the plugin checker would be largely equivalent to that of the existing theme checker fulfilling similar purposes for plugins specifically the primary goals would be to provide plugin developers with feedback on requirements and best practices during development provide the wordpress org wordpress org the community site where wordpress code is created and shared by the users this is where you can download the source code for wordpress core plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization https wordpress org plugin review team with an additional automated tool to identify certain problems or weaknesses in a plugin ahead of a manual review provide technical site owners with a tool to assess plugins based on those requirements and best practices the plugin checker should be implemented as a plugin itself allowing it to be used by similar environments to the theme checker however the scope of the plugin checker should preferably be slightly expanded so that it can better adapt to different environments to satisfy the following use cases it should support checking a plugin both from a wp admin ui ui ui is an acronym for user interface the layout of the page the user interacts with think how are they doing that and less about what they are doing and from the command line using wp cli wp cli wp cli is the command line interface for wordpress used to do administrative and development tasks in a programmatic way the project page is http wp cli org https make wordpress org cli so that it can be conveniently run during local development or for continuous integration e g a github github github is a website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can easily be shared copied and modified by other developers public repositories are free to host private repositories require a paid subscription github introduced the concept of the pull request where code changes done in branches by contributors can be reviewed and discussed before being merged be the repository owner https github com action it should include checks that go beyond static code analysis static code analysis the analysis of computer software that is performed without actually executing programs in contrast with dynamic analysis which is analysis performed on programs while they are executing wikipedia such as runtime checks in which code from the plugin is actually executed to allow for additional best practices to be covered it should allow for customization of which checks are run for a plugin including allowing optional or experimental best practices checks to be opted in to or excluding certain checks for more of a baseline audit project breakdown the idea is that this plugin checker plugin would be developed in a github repository and eventually be published either as a plugin in the wordpress org plugin repository as a composer package on packagist or both an additional means of distribution could be to also publish it as a configurable github action from there both developers and site owners would have access to it and could use it as they prefer once the plugin is more established opportunities for this new tool to be integrated into the wordpress org plugin submission infrastructure should be explored in order to automate parts of the largely manual plugin review process and potentially catch additional problems the customization of which checks to run is critical particularly for this purpose as there is a good chance that the plugin repository would run a different set of checks than the default configuration emphasizing the more foundational requirements for all plugins while the initial purpose of the plugin checker will be for plugin developers and site owners to use the plugin checker all of the above use cases need to be considered during all stages of development of the tool proposed approach as outlined above the plugin checker should be implemented as a plugin itself primarily so that it is easy to install and usable within wp admin ui for site owners or developers in addition it should provide a wp cli command so that plugin checks can also be conducted from the command line the tool s static code analysis checks should rely on an internalized version of php_codesniffer providing more flexibility and simplifying maintenance as this is an established tool there are already existing wordpress tools for automated plugin analysis and several of them also use php_codesniffer which would mean that the new tool could use some already established checks in addition usage of php_codesniffer would allow even environments that are not wordpress to run at least the static analysis checks while many plugin requirements can be checked through static code analysis this method has its limitations especially when it comes to certain accessibility and performance best practices that is where having dynamic runtime checks available in addition to static code analysis will be critical dynamic runtime checks are different in that they actually run the plugin and thus can detect additional issues such as uncached or slow database queries they can also more reliably identify problems around excessive scripts and stylesheets being enqueued one of the main complexities around plugins compared to themes is that plugins essentially have an almost unlimited feature set they can do anything this makes it impossible to predict their expected behavior it also complicates defining a reliable set of rules and guidelines to check for however there are certain ways to at least to detect what a plugin does for example when using certain wordpress apis such as to register post types or blocks such detection mechanisms would benefit from runtime checks as well for example a plugin may not affect the homepage of the website in any way but it could cause several issues just in posts of a certain post type dynamic checks allow for such problems to be identified in addition to static analysis and server side runtime checks it could also be beneficial to include client side checks again there are certain accessibility and performance best practices that could only be reliably detected through such checks one complexity of client side checks though is that they would only work in a browser environment so it would be challenging to run them from the command line except in an environment where a headless browser is configured this makes running such checks infeasible in certain environments for this reason the proposed approach for the plugin checker would be to start with a focus on static analysis checks and server side runtime checks but build the infrastructure in a way that client side checks could potentially be added in the future for some additional context on the different types of checks see the earlier proposal document next steps at this point the performance team would like to gather feedback on this proposal from the wider community especially from plugin developers the plugin review team and the meta meta meta is a term that refers to the inside workings of a group for us this is the team that works on internal wordpress site...
