There are a lot of things I like about what the Kadance theme offers website builders and owners. But the templates are such a let down.
Not because of their design, but because they fail to take advantage of most of the tools and options that make building in the block editor easy.

I've spent too much time today being reminded why I hate build scripts and package managers.

As a WordPress design and developer, I drool over some of these tools that Big Bit has built for media.press
- Separate tab for managing Metadata, Custom Fields, and on-page media.
- Better media crop and replace
- Save drafts without republishing
- Better revisions

Technology is a choice. So is how we talk about it. Let's choose language that describes AI as assistive technology we use (or don't use) to help us flourish.

Today is National Coming Out Day. A day meant to shine a light on the fact that bigotry and homophobia thrive in silence. It makes it all the more frustrating that it seems the Supreme Court is close to reinstating conversion therapy for LGBTQ+ kids.

The killing of Charlie Kirk is deplorable, as were his beliefs. He was an open racist and bigot who used his platform to dehumanize others. While he shouldn't have been killed for his views, I won't ignore that his beliefs empower violence against others.

When a hosting company like SiteGround sends you a "Monthly security report" email, that is nothing but an Ad meant to upsell you on their expensive add-ons, it's safe to say they don't have your best interest in mind. They care more about selling you on services by exploiting fear and confusion.

I can't celebrate his death, but I won't mourn it either. religionnews.com/2025/08/22/d...
Dr. James Dobson’s death ends a life, but not a legacy of lies and harm
(RNS) — His radio show and books shaped generations and fueled the shame that drove queer people like me into conversion therapy.

So many wonderful years not having to think about Kim Davis. Now she's back in the news for all the same horrible reasons. It's taken 10 years for right-wing Christian hate groups to get to this moment. The first shot may stand no chance, but they will keep taking shots till they are successful.

I'm just bitching about PayPal today. Their user account feature is utterly broken, and having to coordinate to receive two-factor codes every time I log in to a client's account is a nightmare.

I would love to see WordPress bring the menu back out of the editor so website users can update and edit the menu independently of working in the full site editor. This would go some way to making sure that content can be edited separately from the site structure.

Today is the 10th anniversary of Obergefell and the legalization of same-sex marriage. The threat to this right is more real than ever. But for this moment I want to sit in the knowledge that there are queer kids who have spent their entire life knowing only a future where they can get married.

This important whistleblower account (from the DOJ attorney fired for being honest in court) paints an absolutely damning portrait of an administration engaged in a conscious and calculated effort to defy federal court orders.

You don't need to use JS to make a masonry gallery layout. There really is no good reason. Now I'm dealing wit a Kadance gallery block that's broken in the editor becasue it's constancy recalculating image positions.

It's sad to say but I think Restrict Content Pro and WPComplete are two plugs that are no longer being developed. Neither are listed on StellarWP's product list (The one mention of Restrict redirect to their other membership plugin).
