The Marketing team promotes WordPress to current and future users and contributors. We create and amplify campaigns to support the growth of the WordPress project.
Our work is tracked on the Marketing Tasks Board on the WordPress organization’s GitHub. If you are planning a Marketing Table at a Contributor Event, please let us know in the Slack channel.
You can be part of the #marketing channel on Slack. Join our next Weekly Marketing Chat at: Tuesday 15:00 UTC.
Diary dates
Welcome, WordPressers! It is Day 17 of the #WP20 From Blogs to Blocks campaign, twenty days of celebrating WordPress and the WordPress community leading up to the 20th Anniversary of WordPress. Are you playing along? Remember, you’ve got time.
Do you have more questions about how to participate? Let us know in the #marketing Slack channel or on the FAQ page.
Prompt 17/20
Blog: Tell us about your first or favorite contribution to WordPress. If you haven’t officially contributed yet, tell us what are you hoping to contribute in the future. Post your response on a WordPress website and link it in the comments!
Develop: Find an issue that needs testing in Core Trac or in the Gutenberg GitHub repo. Test it, patch it, or otherwise move the issue along. Post a link to your work in the comments.
Design: Create a conceptual redesign of any page on make.wordpress.org. You can use the existing WordPress style guide or go your own way. Share your creation wherever you like (website, social media, digital art account, etc.), tag it #WP20, and post the link in the comments.
Photograph: Submit a photo of how you stay motivated and inspired to continue contributing to WordPress. Submit it to the WordPress Photo Directory. Once it’s approved, share the link to your photo in the comments (if your picture has faces, post it on social and link to that).
Contribute: Check out the FSE Program Testing Call #23: Rapid Revamp and walk through the test as outlined. Provide your test results on that post, then link to your feedback comment below.
Note: You can share context in your comment if you like, but don’t forget to include the link as specified in each prompt.
Feel free to make your own WordPress-focused action that works for you, or browse the previous prompts. Anyone who shares at least one action as a comment on a #WP20 From Blogs to Blocks post before or on May 27 will have the achievement acknowledged by the Marketing team. Folx who share an action on all 20 posts before WordCamp US in August 2023 will get an additional acknowledgement of their accomplishment.
