This week’s WordPress news – Covering The Week Commencing 26th October 2020:
Hi there. Just a quick message that I wanted to let you all know about. I’m having to think about whether or not I have time for the WP Builds Weekly WordPress News audio that I normally include in this Newsletter. Sadly, I’m constrained by the time that I have each week and so, for now, it’s going to be going away. Just to be clear, it’s not the newsletter, it’s just the audio. I hope that this is okay! Sorry about that!
