Github Pages allows you to point one url to a repo of your choice. A free static site sounds like the perfect usecase for a "link in bio" type site in my mind!

So I made one, then started thinking "everyone could use this free tool!" So I made it theme-able, and configurable. Enter your information in the config.json file and you've got your own FREE link-in-bio page powered by Github pages.

Hey PressConf people!

Since launching Give back in 2015, online fundraising needs have gotten more and more complex, which means Give has gotten more complex too. But many folks just want something simple to plug and play and run and not fiddle with.

Give's got you covered there too.

This is my first article on the old blog in quite a few years, but it's for all you no-fuss fundraisers out there!

Regret cuts deep—it’s the shadow that lingers, the echo needing silence. For me, it’s the sting I can’t let settle. So I fight it. Ignore it, dodge it, or work to keep it away.

This year, I’m skipping New Year’s Resolutions. Instead, I’m crafting a "No Regrets" list—a map of what my heart knows it’ll ache for if I let it slip by. A promise to step in, step up, and prioritize my days not just to avoid regret but to savor the thrill of the accomplishments.

Really interesting idea and good tutorial on leveraging OpenAI to do plugin translation files programmatically. I'd love for @zackkatz to do a follow-up on how his plugins users feel their experience of the plugin improved with AI-translated local strings or not.

While every professional in WordPress has a "personal brand", not many really leverage it or work to grow or mature it. I won't say I'm an expert at this, but I know who is: Chris Lema.

When Katie Keith suggested we should do a WP Product Talk episode on Personal Branding, I said "the one singular person who's done this the strongest in WordPress is Lema, we've gotta have him on."

So glad he's joining us. Hope to see you tuning in tomorrow!

If you're a #starwars fan and haven't watched the latest season of The Bad Batch – do it. Tonight.

It's some of the BEST Stars Wars I've watched. It makes me think that animated Stars Wars is maybe the best form.

Not sure if I'm coining this term or not, but "extortion reviews" are the worst.

Customer was happy, still uses the product, but support responses slow so they create a negative review to get attention. If you're lucky they'll delete it later or update it, but it's just gross.
