WordPress 6.6 is set to be released. In this video Adam Preiser looks at the new features and then shares his take on why a lot of the new features will not be used. This is sure to be controversial in some circles, but Adam joins the “lets get real” chorus.

The beta for Bricks 1.10 has been released. There are some nice UI and feature enhancements as well as lots of fixes.

Crocoblock JetEngine 3.5 introduced components. Paul Charlton takes a look at this new feature and how to use it.

The Plus team just released a free Figma UI Kit and Design System called Sprout. It has 1300+ Components and 250+ Pages. There are not many Figma design kits that focus on WordPress and so they wanted to make available layouts and designs that would assist in WordPress website creation.

Paul Charlton’s free Bricks mini course is now available.

The Blocksy theme just passed the 200,000 active install milestone.

Cwicly has updated their home page and announced that it will now be available for download for free. They also announced that they are submitting Cwicly to the WordPress directory. Paid users will be eligible for support and free users will have support via their Discourse forum.

This is an interesting discussion about WordPress, the Site Editor, page builders, and serving community segments.

Congratulations to the Blocksy team on reaching 200,000 active installs!
