Era già tutto chiaro quando ho visto che @telepass aveva scelto BRT… non va mai a buon fine. Oggi di nuovo: “destinatario assente” mentre ero a casa e nessuno ha suonato. @BrtCorriere, perché è così difficile consegnare un pacco?

Nice! Syde just published my article! It is based on a talk I gave at #WCEU Basel, then at #WCLT in Kaunas, and recently at the #WordPress #Meetup Milan (#WPMI). #i18n #L10n

At 4:40 pm I’m speaking (in Italian) on “Improving WordPress Multisite” at #WCVRN. Practical tips, UX improvements, and ways to simplify network management. See you there! #WCVRN #WordPress #WordCamp

Got another performance review early this year 😄 Apparently, I’m “Best WordCamp Mentor”! 💚 Ready for an amazing #WordCampVerona 2025 weekend with the team! #WordPress #WCVRN #WordCamp @wordcampverona

I’ve shared some thoughts on the future of the #WordPress Network Admin redesign. You can read the full post here: ploetner.io/thoughts-on-wo… #Multisite

I’m thrilled (and yes, a bit nervous!) to share that I’ll be speaking at WordCamp US 2025 in Portland. My talk is about “Improving WordPress Multisite: Simplifying Features and Enhancing the User Experience.” #WCUS #WordPress #Syde #Multisite #MultiSyde us.wordcamp.org/2025/

Auf dem Contributor Day des WordCamp Europe 2025 hatte ich das Vergnügen, den Tisch der Multisite-Komponente leiten zu dürfen. Zehn Mitwirkende haben gemeinsam an Patches geschrieben, offene Tickets diskutiert und konkrete Verbesserungen… ploetner.io/de/multisite-c… #WordPress #WCEU

We learned how to streamline development workflows from @realloc, from mastering WordPress’s built-in internationalization (i18n) and localization (l10n) features to effectively leveraging multisite, plugins, and custom solutions. #WCEU #WCEU2025 #WordCampEurope

Contributor Day wrap-up @ #WCEU 🎉 Proud to have several Syders contributing Syde by Syde with the community at #ContributorDay! 🧠 @2ndKauBoy led the Meta table 🌐 Dennis led the Multisite table – and his smile says it all! #WordPress #SydeSupports

WordCamp Vienna was a truly enjoyable experience. The venue and organization were excellent. Thank you for the opportunity to participate – it was a valuable experience as a speaker. #WordCamp #WordPress #WCVIE

Today is 'interview day'! A while ago, I was nominated for the Yoast Care Fund. The nice people at Yoast thought it was a good idea and accepted my nomination. They asked me a few questions, which I answered. buff.ly/4biEnV2 #Yoast #WordPress #community

Finalmente riprendo con la pubblicazione di interviste a contributori del mondo WordPress, stavolta tocca a Dennis Ploetner @realloc stefanocassone.com/gente-di-wordp… #WordPress

@2ndKauBoy It sounds a bit like a feature in a forum post where you can decide if your text-change was just minor and therefore not to track.

@realloc Yes, but only if the publish date is changed, it would move up in the listings. And always displaying the update date can also be misleading. What if you only corrected a typo or broken link after some time. Does that make the whole blog post current again? 🤔

I've translated a ~9 year old blog post recently from German to English. What would you expect in terms of the post date? 1. Use the current date. 3. Use the date from 9 years ago 3. Use current date, and after some time, use the old date.

@2ndKauBoy Yes, I guess that is ok too. Or, thinking about it til the end, the creation date and the last modification date are pretty useful when displayed together.

@realloc Are you saying, that you would even update the date of the original post (in my case the German one)? That also makes kind of sense, but I'm more unsure about that tactic. 🤔

I'm amazed by how much the code has improved—coding styles, static analysis, unit & plugin tests—it felt solid. But some classes still seemed coupled. Then came the dependency injection container; wow, the transformation is brilliant! buff.ly/3OGorkW #WordPress #plugin

@BrtCorriere Oppure il sistema #BRT si aspetta che i clienti ritirino personalmente i pacchi presso una filiale fin dall'inizio? Le aziende dovrebbero valutare con attenzione a chi affidano la propria reputazione.

Ci sono molte cose che non vanno nel processo di consegna di @BrtCorriere. Non riesco a credere che l'intera azienda sia così scadente. Ma nell'hinterland milanese ci sono davvero molte cose che non vanno. Qual è il vantaggio di sostenere che il cliente non era in casa? #BRT
