Show Notes

Today's episode cannot be found. It's 404! This is my sad attempt at humour, and it's about as funny as I get, sadly! What actually happens is that Alan Fuller discusses the complexities of transitioning WordPress plugins from shortcodes to blocks, addressing caching issues, Eventbrite API limitations, and the rise of visually-driven tools like Elementor. He reflects on pricing mistakes, AI advancements, and balancing development with user preferences, while continuing to support his successful plugin business. Join us as we explore these themes in-depth, and examine the current landscape, and future directions, of WordPress development.
