WordPress 4.9.8 preparations
We’ve prepared the new master topic for the plugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website. They can extend functionality or add new features to your WordPress websites. WordPress plugins are written in the PHP programming language and integrate seamlessly with WordPress. These can be free in the WordPress.org Plugin Directory https://wordpress.org/plugins/ or can be cost-based plugin from a third-party’s support forums.

We’ll add a FAQ section if we see a need, in the topic it self, as the official one is more developer oriented.
If/when we receive reports of theme and plugin conflicts we’ll be adding them there to the list of known conflicts. This will let us know what we should test against, and also give users an indication of if their issue is already covered by us.
Checking in with international liaisons
We had representatives from the Russian, Greek, Spanish, Dutch, Brazilian and German communities take part during this weeks meeting.
If you’re attending out meetings but are from a non-mentioned community, feel free to say hi on their behalf and let us know how things are!
Open floor
A reminder that the Forums channel will be in “release mode”, this means we will avoid general chatter/emoji streams to avoid missing important shared information.
