Today is 'interview day'! A while ago, I was nominated for the Yoast Care Fund. The nice people at Yoast thought it was a good idea and accepted my nomination. They asked me a few questions, which I was pleased to answer.
Joost "#Yoast" de Valk's vision for a new #WordPress era: Federated And Independent Repositories

How does a fella get Yoast's primary category feature to work on a CPT that uses the core categories taxonomy?
I've searched and searched and looked through hundreds of lines of code and I'm sure it should be there already, but it's not...
At the Rome #CoreDays2024, Paolo Luigi Scala (my teammate at #Yoast) hosts a crammed full panel discussion about multilingual #WordPress!
At the Rome #coredays2024 André Maneiro and Riad Benguella introduce the audience to DataViews in #WordPress with a very interesting workshop.
I'm personally looking forward to being able to use them with #Yoast SEO and Duplicate Post!
At the Rome #coredays2024 Carolina Nymark from #Yoast guides us into the design and development process of the new #WordPress default theme, Twenty Twenty-five.
At Rome #coredays2024 Andrea Fercia from #Yoast asks for an open discussion about whether the differences between #WordPress Core and Gutenberg contributions are still meaningful and useful.
At Rome #coredays2024 @miriamschwab from Elementor takes inspiration from the CrowdStrike fiasco for an interesting proposal about gradual rollouts for #WordPress plugins!
(Very interesting for the 1M+ club such as us #Yoast)
Update: I found the cause of the redirection problem. #Yoast had (for some reason) set the option to disable author archives.

Back in February #Yoast recognized that "Since El0n Mu5k’s takeover of Twitter, many people have moved to the popular open-source alternative, #Mastodon," yet if we want Mastodon integration on our #WordPress sites, we still have to pay for #YoastPremium. How I love being expected to pay what is essentially an anti-N*zi fee just to get the profile I actually use integrated on my site. Gross, Yoast. Get your minds right.

Been tidying up some of the posts on my #Wordpress blog. Adding 'Transition Words' to try and make them easier to read. But had to look up what these were, as I left school at a very early age and a very long time ago #Wordpress #Yoast #TransitionWords
