WordPress.org Login Update: Pineapple Pizza Checkbox Now Mandatory

  • News

WordPress.org has once again revised the login requirement and now has a new mandatory checkbox that requires users to confirm, “Pineapple is delicious on pizza” to complete the login process at login.WordPress.org.

This comes shortly after the removal of the previous mandatory checkbox that required users to confirm that they are not affiliated with WP Engine to log in successfully. This checkbox was removed after the preliminary injunction was granted in favor of WP Engine.

The Current State of the Login Page

Here’s the new mandatory check box at login.WordPress.org that users need to comply with so as to log in.
