23 looks good on WordPress. 🎂
Since May 27, 2003, WordPress has been blogging, building, publishing, shipping, translating, theming, plugin-ing, and making the web a little more wonderfully weird.
Happy birthday, WordPress. 💙

⚠️ "Copy Fail" Linux Kernel Vulnerability: CVE-2026-31431
A critical Linux kernel vulnerability was publicly disclosed on April 29.
It affects every major Linux distribution (including Ubuntu 24.04, 22.04, and 20.04), and allows any user with shell access to gain full root access.

WordPress found me at the lowest point of my life. Helped me make ends meet when I had no idea how I would.
Whatever AI does to it next, that will always matter to me.
WordCamp Asia is next week and felt like the right time to give something back.
I have been obsessed with WP performance for over a decade. One thing I always believed, server-side caching should not require Managed Hosting to get right.
So built something around that with a vision to make server-side caching more accessible and easy to get started, be it nginx, LiteSpeed or Apache. Also made sure it plays well with Perfmatters and Autoptimize, tools I love and respect the folks behind.
Open sourcing it for the community soon.

Just my way of paying it forward.

@dcwhatwhat Hey Jamie, unfortunately, our support system is affected by outages/issues with Freshdesk's API. It's likely they had intermittent issues around the time you were trying to send in a ticket. Please let us know if the issue/error is persistent.
Sidenote #1: Although it's rare, this is a known problem, and we are exploring a migration to Zendesk as a result.
Sidenote: If you ever have any trouble sending in a support ticket in the dashboard, please always feel free to email [email protected] directly. 🙌

WordPress 6.9 has introduced a new Abilities API that lets your WordPress plugins explain exactly what they do to AI tools. You can use it to register plugin and theme functionality for native AI integration.
