Max Ⓦ CapitaineWP 👨‍🚀

Annonce importante 📣 Je prépare un événement #WordPress 100% en ligne pour janvier 2027. Une journée complète de conférences, en direct, depuis votre canapé.🧵 Le thread complet ici 👇

We're extending Claude Fable 5 access on all paid plans, as well as keeping Claude Code’s weekly rate limits 50% higher, through July 19.

@PirzadaAnsari Oh thanks 🤩 exactly what I need right now!

I asked WordPress founders three questions: - What was your biggest growth bottleneck after launch? - What ended up driving growth? - What would you do differently if you were starting again today? Here's the full write-up: blogginc.com/blog/grow-word…

Des skills excellents pour tirer le meilleur parti de l’IA dans vos projets !

@wp_rocket De rien ☺️ Je vais tester plus en profondeur dans les jours à venir !

@Maximebj Merci pour le partage ! On espère que tu apprécieras cette nouvelle option 😊

Petite nouveauté intéressante pour lancer votre Claude sur l’analyse de performance de vos sites !

@jessyseonoob @aurelienbardon Abusé 🫪

@Maximebj @aurelienbardon il doit avoir un plus haut niveau que ça. Je suis photographe photo 360 certifié google streetview, il devaient me renvoyer des clients, j'ai jamais reçu un appel. Ils ont fini par le faire en interne, et moi j'avais acheté le matos.

Mes photos sur Google maps viennent de dépasser le million de vues Dommage cela ne rapporte rien :-)

@ccjobmk @jeffr0 But the AI datacenters will melt the iceberg just in time to avoid a disaster. 🤣

@Maximebj @jeffr0 Sounds like the Titanic headed towards the iceberg.

Next year will be the 10th anniversary of Gutenberg in WordPress. Let that sink in. In the last 9 years, the Gutenberg editor has expanded beyond the post editor to encompass the entire site. Nearly 10 years in, has it been a solid investment/direction for the project?

@remkusdevries @webtw @Bovelett @WordPress @KatieKeithBarn2 @greyd_suite I totally understand! Thank you for the compliments 🥰

Yeah, and I think I thinkt that's a great gap to fill, but I'm thinking more long-term. As in, I don't want to invest in yet another custom fields solution which, at some point, will be made redundant and then force me to fix everything in sites I maintain for clients if I don't absolutely have to. That said, you seem to have fixed it in a very smooth way.

Wow, 😍 now this is a sweet, sweet courageous plugin, made in France, for all who build with modern @wordpress. Custom fields, block-based! I just discovered it because @Maximebj, its creator, replied to a great question from @KatieKeithBarn2 about listing plugins from memory. The free version is available on the WordPress repo and offers: - Native controls from the block Editor for a better experience. - Design fields groups visually within the block editor. - Configure your fields more quickly. - More locations to display fields group (modal, panel). - Ready-to-use patterns for stunning options pages. - Display fields in your template without code with the Field Value block, no need to code. - Use query block to filter results by meta. The pro has all that stuff that I love. Like repeaters. PS Maxime, I saw your walkthrough on YouTube. While silently thanking my French teacher, I wondered, will you also record this walkthrough in English? Also, I have some accessibility related questions. Shoot me a DM if you want to plan a digital coffee. CC @remkusdevries @mikemcalister, @groundworxdev, @SamokhinAleks @aviralmittal_ @idavinder @gutenbergtimes

@remkusdevries @webtw @Bovelett @WordPress @KatieKeithBarn2 @greyd_suite Thanks! That’s valuable. ACF relies heavily on custom block (and now on bindings since last release that fixes metas in editor). My vision is to add a layer of simplicity and consume data without code whenever it’s possible : relation loop, filtered query loop, value block…

@webtw @Bovelett @WordPress @Maximebj @KatieKeithBarn2 @greyd_suite Block bindings as stand-alone solution, not complete or perfect yet, but quite workable in many situations, I've found. ACF Pro has lots of options as well. I gave my assistant some homework to report on Pods, CMB2, Metabox, and others and this is what they said:

In Modern Fields, you can now expose your custom fields through the REST API

@iamrobertsillo Mostly native core blocks, ans custom js block development when needed. I also present @BuildWithOllie and the menu designer. And @unblockwp with AI.

@Maximebj Cool! Sounds very interesting. Do you use any tools to teach them, or do you rely completely on the native core blocks?

How many WordPress professionals here use FSE and block themes for real websites?

👀

@jessyseonoob @aurelienbardon Ah ouais t’as du niveau 😱. Un mec m’a dit un jour que quand t’avais un niveau assez élevé, tu recevais des invitations. Je crois qu’on m’a menti.

@Maximebj @aurelienbardon et même pas droit a un pin's 😭

@jessyseonoob @aurelienbardon Ouais…

@aurelienbardon ouais 😟

@remkusdevries @Bovelett @WordPress @KatieKeithBarn2 For example, block bindings were shipped unfinished and it hasn’t moved for 1/2 years. But I hope WordPress will male my plugin useless someday. I just want to provide a quick and simple alternative to metas.

Looks slick, vraiment, but I don’t think I’m the audience. I don’t see it. I mean, given that we already have so many block-native custom field solutions and that we’ve seen quite a bit of movement for custom fields to move to core.

@remkusdevries @Bovelett @WordPress @KatieKeithBarn2 Things are moving really slow to core, but yes with DataForm, WordPress is becoming better and better. Now, I see that most agencies still hasn’t caught the JS train, so I think it can still be useful for a while. But I understand!

@KatieKeithBarn2 Works fine with an iPad too! Apple ecosystem is wonderful 🤩. The first time I saw my cursor on the iPad I was like WTF!?

Turned on my old MacBook Air to look for something and was weirdly excited to accidentally discover that I can use the same keyboard and mouse to simultaneously control both computers - so cool 🤯 Now I need to figure out how to use this to be EVEN more productive 🤔
