Looking for volunteers

  • Weโ€™re planning to organize local workshops to make the sessions more engaging and inspiring. Whether youโ€™re a first-time speaker or an experienced presenter, if you feel confident covering a WordPress-related topic, youโ€™re welcome to participate. You can also choose to co-host a workshop by teaming up with someone who already has speaking experience at different events.

  • Weโ€™ve made significant progress on the thumbnail generator project, with most thumbnails successfully updated. However, a few content thumbnails still use outdated designs or donโ€™t comply with our thumbnail generator guidelines. If youโ€™re interested in volunteering for this task, simply leave a comment, and weโ€™ll provide the necessary instructions to get started. Our colleague @MosesCursor took the responsibility for this project, and he is the person you should contact and ask anything about the project

    • @piyopiyofox said that she had two things she wanted to bring up:
      • She had mentioned the upcoming course cohort in the Monthly Education Buzz Report for July 2025, and added that if there were any other educational initiatives the Training Team was working on โ€” such as a new course cohort, new learning pathways, or tutorials โ€” she would like to be informed so she could include them in the next edition.
      • She asked if the Training team would be open for sharing space at the table with her and @peiraisotta to talk about WordPress Campus Connect and WordPress Credits, if folks ask about it? Mostly informational.
