Seeking The Sun & Warmth with WordPress

 



John's Intro:

It's Episode 585 and we have plugins for Birth Compatibility, Luna widget, Stopping Enumeration, Xmas Greetings, Pimping Sites, Dev-ing Snow… and ClassicPress Options. It's all coming up on WordPress Plugins A-Z!

– ‘good morning, good afternoon, good evening, wherever you happen to be hiding out there on the globe today! Coming to you LIVE from …'

Amber's Rant:

Welcome to Episode Seeking The Sun & Warmth with WordPress – This is the last Episode of the year for 2022! Everyone ready for the Christmas Cheer and the awesome Egg Nog that's definitely coming your way?? I know I am! Admittedly I am lactose intolerant, so there is only ever one night a year I indulge – but it's so worth it! That lactose free egg nog just doesn't taste right…

A quick message for our listeners – we will not be here live, in person for the next two weeks, though we have pre-recorded a couple of shows just for you! We will be going over some favourite times, some upcoming changes, and just having a bit of a chat in general!

Remember: This is a Value for Value show, meaning any value you find here, offer that same value back! We accept all currencies including time and talent currency! Chocolate is always good too…

And don't skip the end of the show – you never know what kind of amazing life altering advice you might catch!

A special note to our New Listeners: Don't be shy to ask your questions. No such thing as a dumb question.

…When you see this in the notes, this means we didn't read this on the show, and that the only way to find this information out is to read our Show Notes!

…You can send any questions/suggestions or notes saying ‘hi' over to me at [email protected], or hit up our site wpppluginsatoz.com/contact – Be creative with the title so that the spammer eater doesn't eat your note though!

Let's start the show with this weeks Featured Artist:

News this week:

WordPress Vulnerability Report – December 14, 2022 (https://ithemes.com/blog/wordpress-vulnerability-report-december-14-2022/) – We have a WordPress Core News this week: WordPress 6.1.1 was released on November 15, has 29 bug fixes in Core and 21 bug fixes for the block editor. If you haven't already, be sure to update!

There is also an ‘Unauthenticated Blind SSRF via DNS Rebinding' vulnerability in WordPress – this affects all versions, although all you need to do is turn off XML-RPC or pingbacks on your WordPress Site.

For Plugins we have a bit of a list, here are the ones I recognize most easily: WP User, WP AutoComplete Search, Product List Widget for WooCommerce, WP Social Sharing, and Multimedial Images.
