For users of its recently-released Web Stories for WordPress plugin, they will want to follow the extended rules for their Stories to appear in the “richer experiences” across Google’s services.

[ad_1] A tweetstorm is a series of related tweets posted in succession on Twitter by a user. Recently, WordPress has rolled out a new feature that allows the users to convert their existing blog posts into a tweetstorm without any difficulty.

[ad_1] Image credit: picjumbo.com on Pexels. Starter content. It was a grand idea, one of those big dreams of WordPress. It was the new kid on the block in late 2016. Like the introduction of post formats in 2011, the developer community was all in for at least that particular release version. Then, it was on to the next new thing, with the feature dropping off the radar for all but the most ardent evangelists. Some of us were burned over the years, living and dying by the progress of features that we wanted most. Released in WordPress 4.7, starter content has since seemed to be… [ad_2] More Info

[ad_1] Two weeks ago, the Gutenberg team put out an open call for block-based widgets feedback. I had already written a lengthy review of the new system earlier in September but was asked by a member of the team to share my thoughts on the most recent iteration. With the upcoming freeze for WordPress 5.6 Beta 1 just a week away, I figured it would not hurt to do another deep dive. For reference, my latest testing is against version 9.2.0-alpha-172f589 of the Gutenberg plugin, which was a build from earlier today. Gutenberg development moves fast, but everything should be accurate to that… [ad_2] More Info

[ad_1] I want to start this post by noting that we do not endorse this activity, and we take no responsibility for people flooding Twitter with ridiculously long tweet threads which would have been better left as blog posts.  That said, WordPress has this week added new functionality that will enable users to re-publish entire WordPress blog posts as tweet threads, “with just two extra clicks”. As you can see here, the new process will essentially convert your WordPress blog post into a tweet thread.

These will be automatically inserted into the thread where they… [ad_2] More Info
