([Slack script](https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C04EWKGDJ0K/p1734098437070179)) facilitated by [@berislavgrgicak](https://profiles.wordpress.org/berislavgrgicak/) ## Announcements * [Enabled CORS Proxy for all network requests](https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-playground/pull/2076). This gives WordPress running inside Playground more access to cross origin resources. Limitations still apply around allowed headers and download sizes. Props to [@brandonpayton](https://profiles.wordpress.org/brandonpayton/) * The new and experimental Data Liberation importer [is now available in the importWxr step](https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-playground/pull/2058) if you use the `"importer": "data-liberation"` option. The new importer rewrites links in the imported content, downloads assets through Playground’s CORS proxy, parallelizes the downloads, and communicates progress live. * [WP cron is now enabled in Playground](https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-playground/pull/2039) * We used the Playground tester to compare the error rate of the top 1000 [WordPress.org](https://wordpress.org/) plugins. [In 2023 7% of plugins failed, and today it’s 5%.](https://github.com/bgrgicak/Playground-compatibility-reports/blob/main/reports/test-comparison.md) ## Contributor Updates * **Data Liberation Efforts:** - [@zieladam](https://profiles.wordpress.org/zieladam/) added a [experimental integration to the `importWxr` step.](https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-playground/pull/2058) - [@zaerl](https://profiles.wordpress.org/zaerl/) is working on [topological sorting of WXR entities.](https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-playground/pull/2030) - [@bpayton](https://profiles.wordpress.org/bpayton/)  [created a WXR + uploads export package](https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-playground/pull/2078). - Experimental [Markdown importer in the importWxr step](https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-playground/pull/2080). * **SQLite Integration**: - @janjakesjanjakes is focused on implementing MySQLMySQL MySQL is a relational database management system. A database is a structured collection of data where content, configuration and other options are stored. [https://www.mysql.com](https://www.mysql.com/)` information_schema` into SQLite. - Next: translating `ALTER TABLE` statements. * **Playground Tester**: - Tests will be able to run automatically after we add support for GitHubGitHub GitHub is a website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers. Public repositories are free to host, private repositories require a paid subscription.
