This is the March 2020 edition of "This Month in WordPress with CodeinWP." // Hey WordPress fans, welcome back to our monthly roundup of news from our community. You'll hear about lots of happenings; some you will enjoy and some you will probably not agree with. But that's life, isn't it?

This is the February 2020 edition of "This Month in WordPress with CodeinWP." // Hi everybody, welcome to our latest edition of WordPress news! We hope you started off the year with the batteries charged and you’re ready to embrace all the next challenges that are waiting for you around the corner.

This is the January 2020 edition of "This Month in WordPress with CodeinWP." // Hi everybody, welcome to 2020! This is our first roundup of the year, which means that we’re back to work and the holidays are over. Most of our team took the last two weeks off, while some of us alternated work with free days. Anyway, this period was fun and short, if you ask me.

Hi friends! This is the final push of the year, the last WordPress news you will read in 2019. I don't know about you but, if I were to pick a superhero to describe the past 12 months, that would be Flash. Everything happened so incredibly fast that it's kinda scary.

In WordPress, things keep moving at a slow but steady pace. In September, WordPress 5.3 receives a new beta, the Twenty Twenty theme is almost ready, Google releases a native lazy loading plugin for WordPress, a Jetpack-like plugin arises, while the Gutenberg team shares a full-site editing prototype. But that’s just a small taste of all the topics we covered in this October 2019 WordPress news roundup.

Hey guys! We find ourselves already past the mid-point of the year – all things seem to fast-forward in 2019. Weeks pass like days, and days pass like hours. Or maybe it’s just us. Last month, we took a break from our classic news roundup to fully cover our favorite event, WordCamp Europe. Now, we’re back in business with the latest WordPress news.

This is the July 2019 edition of "This Month in WordPress with CodeinWP." For the WordPress community, June is synonymous with WordCamp Europe. The biggest WordPress event somehow gets bigger every year, and 2019 tore the records to shreds with the largest number of registrations ever seen. As a result, we are dedicating this month’s news entirely to WCEU.

I hope you’re just as stoked as we are to attend this year’s WordCamp Europe 2019! Just to refresh your memory, it’s all happening in Berlin, Germany and it’s THE place to meet like-minded WordPress people of all paths and professions. Here’s everything you need to know about #WCEU 2019, the sub-events you can can attend, and other information that may come in handy.

Hello everybody, we are back with a fresh round of front page WordPress news from the last month. And what a month April has been! Except for details on the WordPress 5.2 release (which was pushed back to May 7), controversy is the best word to describe the last four weeks in our community.

Hello friends, welcome to our April 2019 WordPress news roundup! I don’t know about you but, at least in Romania, everyone is enjoying Spring. Things are looking bright in our WordPress community, too.

In today’s post, you’ll learn about WordPress 5.1, trends in CMS market share statistics, the Google E-A-T algorithm, and a new Amazon release – Alexa Skills Blueprint – that involves blogs. Last but not least, another #wpdrama kept everyone busy for a few days, but it seems to have ceased as quickly as it started.

Hello everyone and happy New Year! While we've been busy enjoying the holidays, we still found some time to collect all the best WordPress news and stories from the past month.

Hey WordPress fans, this is our last monthly news roundup of this year. In the next one, we will be changing one digit. And so is WordPress, with WordPress 5.0 almost ready to go live, after being delayed a couple of times. But at least we have a release candidate right now.

Hello friends, welcome to our November 2018 WordPress news roundup! Now that I think about it, I can't believe we're nearing this year's end...which kind of frightens me because I realize once again how fast time is flying.

Hey everyone, we have plenty of WordPress news to share with you this month. First up, Gutenberg is entering the final development phase and is almost ready for its first release candidate version. Beyond that, the official AMP plugin was upgraded and optimized towards a more user-friendly interface, while our own Pirate Forms moved on to become part of WPForms. And if you like dark interfaces, “dark mode” might be coming to WordPress!

As we keep rolling towards WordPress 5.0, a lot of people are wondering if we'll see Gutenberg replace page builders like Elementor, Divi or Beaver Builder once it's officially merged into the core. In this post, I'll shed some light on this topic and analyze what's likely to come next for page builders in the "Gutenberg age".

Hi everyone, welcome to a fresh edition of our monthly WordPress news series!
