Embed Any URL Into WordPress With the Bookmark Card Block – WordPress Tavern

[ad_1] George Mamadashvili’s Bookmark Card block is the sort of simple plugin that is easy to overlook. It is one of those plugins that suffers from the lack of block discoverability in WordPress at the moment. Like many other one-off blocks, you don’t know you need it until you need it. The plugin is essentially an embed block, but it is not specific to one website or service like Twitter and YouTube. Instead, it allows users to add a “card” for any URL in their content. Mamadashvili has previously worked as a developer on several blocks for the Sorta Brilliant brand, which… [ad_2] More Info

[ad_1] Aside from providing significant protection from a wide range of threats, the Sucuri WAF also acts as a CDN due to its caching capabilities and regional PoPs — often performing even better than dedicated CDNs based on recent tests. CDNs can significantly help speed up your website by storing and delivering content as close to the browser as possible, using servers dedicated to that task. What’s more, properly configured caching settings are the best defense against DDoS attacks. Even the heaviest DDoS can be easily mitigated by leveraging good caching.

Rough Pixels Releases Empt Lite, a Block-Supported Freemium WordPress Theme – WordPress Tavern

[ad_1] Single post view. Empt Lite, the latest theme by Rough Pixels, landed in the WordPress theme directory today. Like most of the company’s prior work, the design is on par with the best free themes currently available. I have come to disregard that icky feeling whenever I see “Lite” attached to a theme name, at least when it falls under the Rough Pixels brand. The company does not deal in the stripped-down lite themes I wrote about a couple of weeks ago. Empt Lite is one of those rare themes that does not downgrade the experience with the free version. Most additional… [ad_2] More Info
