No DevHub chat this week

We won’t be having a DevHub chat this week. I will be unavailable to run the chat and it sounds like @coffee2code won’t be available either. Chats are normally held on Tuesdays at 18:00 UTC in the #meta-devhub channel.

We’ll pick up scrubbing the remaining tickets in the DevHub component report next week at the usual time and place.

#devhub, #meta-devhub

DevHub Weekly Chats are restarting

Beginning Tuesday, July 12, 2016 18:00 UTC, we’ll be restarting weekly DevHub chats in the #meta-devhub channel on SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/. The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at https://make.wordpress.org/chat/..

For the uninitiated, the Developer Hub, or “DevHub”, largely serves as the new official source for developer documentation on WordPress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/. The DevHub team’s responsibilities cover the phpdoc-parser project, as well as infrastructure behind the Code Reference, Theme and Plugin and Developer handbooks, resources pages, and more.

Getting weekly chats restarted should allow us to gather more regularly as a team and get group feedback, as well as set direction for new features or improvements. See you on Tuesday!

In anticipation of the 3.6 release the docs…

In anticipation of the 3.6 release, the docs team added function references in the Codex in April for 37 functions and a filterFilter Filters are one of the two types of Hooks https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Hooks. They provide a way for functions to modify data of other functions. They are the counterpart to Actions. Unlike Actions, filters are meant to work in an isolated manner, and should never have side effects such as affecting global variables and output. that now need to be deleted.

We’ve already had one report of a “missing” function on TracTrac Trac is the place where contributors create issues for bugs or feature requests much like GitHub.https://core.trac.wordpress.org/.. For now, I’ve just deleted all of the content in those pages, but they’re obviously still showing up in searches.

Can one of you elevate my privileges in the Codex and/or take care of deleting these? The list of pages is here: https://gist.github.com/DrewAPicture/6141436
