Aaaaaaand we're back! No newsletter last week because, well, that's just how things go sometimes. 🤷‍♂️

This week's newsletter is all about partnerships. Over the last couple of months, you may have noticed some of the ways I've begun to partner with folks to help us mutually grow.

🎙️ One of the earliest partnerships was with Michelle Frechette's WP Speakers. Each Presser has the ability to add their speaker profile link for a special section on their Presser profile.

💬 In late January/early February, I added the Seriously, Bud? podcast to the top navigation and created a landing page for new episodes. Each guest who has been on the show also has a link to it on their Presser profile.

🦸 This week, the wonderful folks at HeroPress allowed me to add a few HP-branded items to the online store here at The WP World! There are 6 logo'd products and more coming soon. All proceeds from these sales go directly to HeroPress.

There are a couple more in the works that I'm excited to share, but that's all for now. Thank you to those folks for supporting The WP World in these ways. 🫶

New Features and Updates

🛍️ New shop items: Besides the new items created for HeroPress, there are some new, nerdy web and WordPress related items in the shop. Plus, the whole shop experience has been overhauled - which was much needed.

🔧 Select2: There are a few errors in the site stemming from the Select2 javascript library being used in a few places. Still trying to track down what's causing these.
