A weekly podcast covering updates from the WordPress ecosystem that are relevant and helpful for WordPress agencies, developers, and enthusiasts
This week on The WP Week Podcast, we discuss the controversy surrounding WPForms Lite 2.0.0, including claims that its setup wizard introduced backdoor-like functionality and the ongoing debate over administrator consent and WordPress.org guidelines.
We also cover the WordPress 7.0.3 security release, which fixes 12 vulnerabilities, a new supply-chain attack affecting several BdThemes plugins, and how plugins can manipulate the WordPress Add New screen. Plus, we look at WooCommerce 11.0, WordPress 7.1 updates, the postponement of WordCamp Switzerland, new AI-powered tools, and other important community developments.
