ISSUE #5 • DECEMBER 20, 2023

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

It's finally here! — though it'll continue to roll out to more camps over time. Right now, anyone logged into their account can rate any event that occurred from 2020 to now.

I've decided to start simple and treat this as an MVP. Once logged in, surf to any recent event and you'll see a ratings widget in the sidebar. If you haven't already rated the event, you'll have a "Rate Event" button.

Please take a few minutes to rate any/all events you've attended in the last few years! If you have any feedback about the process, reply to this email or submit a feature request!

The big news of the week is the ratings feature, though a couple of other goodies landed in the site.

🌟 Ratings are here (see above)! Hopefully this helps attendees, speakers, sponsors, and others make event decisions based on collective community sentiment.

👥 Are you in other communities online? I bet you are! Make sure you let people know if they can find you on Make Slack, The WP Minute Slack, Big Orange Heart, and others!

🔍 New quick-links bar with Presser search allows you to find someone from anywhere in the site. You'll see it at the top of the site, kinda like the WP admin bar, but dark green.

📝 The WP World blog is coming. That may or may not be of interest to you, but it will allow me to have a place to share site features and thoughts on other related WordPress goings-on.

For those that celebrate, Merry Christmas. 🎄 For everyone else, Happy Holidays and I hope you are able to get some time off. Burnout is real and we could all use a break before starting back up in the new year.
