Training Team 2024 Half Year Reviewย is out! Letโs celebrate another 6 months of goals and projects accomplished! Please read through the post and share any additional thoughts in the comments.
Do we need a separateย LearnWP Topic Vetting boardย for vetting topics? The teamโs dynamics have changed since then, so letโs reevaluate. What is the value of having a dedicated board for topic vetting? Could we add back a column at the left of theย LearnWP Content- Development boardย for issues waiting vetting?
According to @bsanevans Last year, SMEs struggled to find relevant issues to vet due to all topics being in a single column, leading to a backlog of 100+ issues. The topic vetting project board, with its categoryCategoryThe 'category' taxonomy lets you group posts / content together that share a common bond. Categories are pre-defined and broad ranging. tabs, made it easier for SMEs to locate their issues. Now, only 5 issues are waiting to be vetted, a significant improvement from last year. This change allows us to consider reverting to a single column in the content development project board. The backlog was primarily due to Training creating many new issues per release, but this process has paused, making the vetting board more manageable.
@piyopiyofox closed all Lesson Plans and Tutorials unless requested to be converted into a Lesson. The team could benefit from an editorial calendar for release-related content and a general checklist to vet other content for relevancy and priority.
@webcommsat consider using the Dev Blog model for idea planning and discussion, though the emoji thumb voting might not work due to more people involved in training. Using GitHub for planning could be effective. We can filterFilterFilters 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. the existing board for ideas and adapt some Dev Blog practices for training. This could also aid in cross-mapping and linking published items, which is increasingly important. I already consider training when reviewing new Dev Blog ideas and posts.

Ideas from the community
Show Learn content in the WordPress dashboard.
Hosts would love for a way to show content right there without the user having to leave their site.
Provide Learn content in a way that hosts etc. can add/subtract modules as needed for their use cases.
Building a pluginPluginA 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. was one idea as a way to achieve this.
Clarify how users can get help with the content.
Learn could show a call-to-action โclick here for helpโ within content.
Offer a glossary so that users know what to call the things theyโre learning.
There have been previous efforts to create a unified WordPress glossary (Slack conversation) which would be great to integrate on Learn for learners.

The team had a great conversation around what Translation plugin to use4 for Learn, and we are currently testing out TranslatePress on the Learn WordPress staging site
In preparation for the relaunch of Learn.WordPress.org and Learning Pathways scheduled for July, we need to create a large quantity of small graphics โ called thumbnails โ to serve as featured images for each course, lesson, and tutorial. This will create a visually appealing site that will entice learners to dive in and get started on their learning journey.
We invite volunteers at WCEUโs Contributor Day on June 13 โ and beyond โ to pitch in and create as many of these thumbnails as possible.ย Even if youโre not attending WCEU in person, youโre welcome to help out. Just follow the steps below, and let the team know in the #training channel in Slack so we can recognize your contributions.
Thank you in advance to everyone whoโs able to lend a hand with this group effort! Weโll keep the project going for as long as needed.
Open the content-tracking spreadsheet. (Youโll find the link in the Training teamโs SlackSlackSlack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/. The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at https://make.wordpress.org/chat/ bookmarks โ screenshot.)
Working from the top down in one of the three sheets (tabs), choose a lesson, course, or tutorial for which youโll create a thumbnail. (Ignore anything with a โDeprecatedโ status.)
Put your name in the Thumbnail by column to claim it.
For those who speak a language other than English, see if there are any lessons, courses, or tutorials in that language and prioritize those first.
Step 2: Create your thumbnail
Create the thumbnail by going through the thumbnail creation guide, also following these important points specific to this project:
Vary the colour palette and slide template style. Try not to repeat the same template or colour palette on consecutive images. Keep in mind that the order in which the content is listed in the spreadsheet is the order in which the thumbnails will appear on the site, so the idea is to vary the thumbnail styles and colours that are next to each other.ย The goal is to end up with something a bit random like this:
And not end up with something where there are a lot of the same colour-palette variations repeated next to each other, like this:
Copy-paste the course/lesson/tutorial title into the text area of the thumbnail generator, from the column that says Lesson (tutorial/course) title โ for copying. Itโs not obligatory to use the title in your graphic; if you find a great image to represent the course/lesson/tutorial, feel free to use one of the templates without text. (More on finding images below.)ย
We are not using Faces or Guest names for these thumbnails. If youโve chosen a template with any Faces (avatars), click the Faces component and click the eye icon next to it to hide it, or right-click the component and select the โShow/Hideโ option in the menu.
Similarly, if youโre using a template with Guest names, select the Speaker component and and click the eye icon next to it to hide it, or right-click the component and select the โShow/Hideโ option in the menu.
If youโve chosen a template that features an image (other than the ones that feature a preselected BlockBlockBlock is the abstract term used to describe units of markup that, composed together, form the content or layout of a webpage using the WordPress editor. The idea combines concepts of what in the past may have achieved with shortcodes, custom HTML, and embed discovery into a single consistent API and user experience.

Open Source **must be** delivered via a licensing model, see GPL. image from the WordPress Photo Directory, Openverse, or Pexels. Make sure no credit is required in the imageโs license terms.
Step 3: Export, upload, and record your thumbnail
Export your thumbnail by following the handbook instructions. Rename the file using this naming convention: yyyy-mm-dd-name-of-tutorial-or-other-content-type Example: 2024-06-13-introducing-the-twenty-twenty-four-theme for a tutorial titled โIntroducing the Twenty Twenty-Four theme.โ (Do not use any spaces or uppercase letters in the file name.) The file will automatically be given the .png extension by the generator โ donโt change it.
Upload the thumbnail file to the Google Drive, in either the Courses, Lessons, or Tutorials folder. (Youโll find the link in the Training teamโs Slack bookmarks โ screenshot.)
In the spreadsheetโs Thumbnail URLURLA specific web address of a website or web page on the Internet, such as a websiteโs URL www.wordpress.org column, paste the URL from the Google Drive by clicking the three dots next to the file > Share > Copy link.
Leave all other columns blank, unless you receive further instructions.
If you havenโt been able to upload thumbnails for all the ones you โclaimedโ in step 1, go back and remove your name next to that piece of content so someone else can get to it.
We got some input from a Marketing team member last week. Please continue to contribute to this conversation byย providing your thoughts on the post by June 13th.
The team has had an administration project board for a couple of years. With the majority of project tracking now happening on the team blog, team reps are planning on cleaning out the board, leaving just meeting agenda and handbook feedback items.ย Are any team members still actively using this board?
Faculty program retirement
Weโd like to share a proposal to retireย the Faculty program in its current form. This proposal was already discussed within the Faculty group, and since the overall consensus was to go ahead with retiring the program, weโre now sharing the proposal with the whole team before we move forward with any of the suggested steps.
@bsanevans has proposed the below plan to the team and team agreed on that. Below are the @bsanevans proposal:
Firstly, we wanted to give a huge thank you for all your hard work in keeping things running so smoothly. Thanks to you all, weโve been able to set up team processes, catch up on a backlog of tasks, and set ourselves up for future success.
Over the past while, weโve observed that the Faculty program is due for a rethink. For example, many folks in the Faculty group are no longer active on the team at all, and there are many roles that are under-used and difficult to recruit for. As well, thereโs a level of administrative overhead thatโs somewhat complicated, and having to be part of the Faculty program may be seen by contributors as a barrier to doing certain types of work on the team. Finally, the now-established Guide Program serves as a welcoming path for people to get more involved in the team.
Weโve been thinking of ways to streamline things to make the team run more efficiently. In turn, this should free up time to focus more on higher-impact areas.
In thinking things over, weโd like to suggest retiring the Faculty program in its current form. We propose the following steps:
Add a new area in the handbook, outlining the history ofย Learn.WordPress.orgย and the Training team. This section would also include the names of past team reps and Faculty members, so that folksโ contributions are visible and recognized in the context of the Training teamโs history.
Shift the work done by the current Faculty Admin group to a smaller group of administrators, starting with the team reps. Additional admins will be added over time, while the current admin needs of the team are reassessed. We will likely look for Training team members who have made consistent contributions over the last 6-12 months.
Update the handbook to remove the Faculty Program section.
Feedback on sharing experienced content creator processes with the team
@psykroย andย @west7ย have identified a need for content creators to view their content creation process. They plan to add the following links as additional resources to the โCreate a Lessonโ page. They are also considering creating an informal video recording of these processes to support visual learners.ย We welcome any feedback or concerns you might have regarding this plan.
To simplifyย Learn.WordPress.org, two content types will be gradually phased out: tutorials and lesson plans. As a first step, before launching the new site some outdated tutorials are going to be unpublished. A redirect will be added for each one, to send visitors to the most relevant alternative content.
@west7 andย @psykroย have already started going through all existing tutorials to note whether they should be kept, deprecated (unpublished), or updated.
We are looking for volunteers to continue going throughย the rest of the tutorialsย to indicate the status of each (keep/deprecate/update) and a potential redirect URLURLA specific web address of a website or web page on the Internet, such as a websiteโs URL www.wordpress.org.ย If you are available, please make edits directly to the spreadsheet.
Note that some of this content is in languages other than English, but you could use an online translation tool to translate the tutorial title to help determine whether itโs still relevant or has a more up-to-date equivalent tutorial or lesson.

Training Team co-reps @bsanevans@lada7042 and I are very excited to welcome Jamie Madden as interim Training Team co-representative (co-rep).
A few months ago we discussed the idea of an interim lead with the team, and the idea was largely accepted. An interim co-rep is an active Training Team member who fits our documented criteria, and is able to step in to help lead the team when another co-rep is on a leave for longer than 1 month.
Our fellow team repTeam RepA Team Rep is a person who represents the Make WordPress team to the rest of the project, make sure issues are raised and addressed as needed, and coordinates cross-team efforts.@bsanevans will be away on a three month sabbatical on June 24th, and we will begin onboarding Jamie to the co-representative team starting from this week (June 3rd). He will be staying on as an interim co-rep until the end of the year.
Jamie Maddenย has been involved in open-source long before WordPressโ first release. He made his first contribution to the Red Hat kernel in 1999. Since then, heโs been contributing to the WordPress documentation, testing, and, of course, Training Team.
