A few months ago, I helped my local #LandTrust convert their old HTML site to #wordpress. One benefit of this is that their donation process has been streamlined. (Previously people filled out a PDF form, mailed it in with a check or independently donated on Paypal). Since then, they've used their website to raise over $1,000!

So #WordPress 6.2 is out. I can barely get clients to move away from the classic editor to the block editor, much less use a block theme. Sort of feels like, more and more, WP is no longer going to be for the basic average user.

#WordPress 6.2 has been released, and includes my patch to escape Identifiers in SQL, using `%i`.This allows the $query in wpdb::prepare() to be a `literal-string`, which ensures you can’t have an SQL Injection Vulnerability 🥳

The release of Better Click To Tweet today was AI-assisted. I fed #chatGPT the file I knew I needed to mess with to fix a problem, and described the problem. It gave me several "fixes" that were not working, and I described how they were failing. Each time, the bot changed course, and described why their previous code had failed, and gave a new snippet. #WordPress #PHP #JavaScript #AI

I’m considering going old school and setting up my own #WordPress site again in order to junk an existing WordPress.com setup that I think is too expensive and too limiting. Does anyone have a recommendation for a good hosting platform to explore that is also inexpensive? This is only for a personal #blog so nothing fancy.

Modern web development, that is, the modern JS development system overtaking web development makes this a lot less fun than it used to be for me. I enjoy my work—I'm not talking about an exit or anything—but I don't want to hack on things like I used to.I wonder if this is how older generations of tech roles felt as other new things came in.
