UPDATE: Looks like this might be easier than I thought – going to give it a go with a couple of candidate themes.

Request for help: WordPress theme font customisation (perhaps through child theme?) – possibly other minor brand-related tweaks (e.g. colours).

Potentially paid gig (let’s talk!) helping me utilise a webfont pack in a theme.

I’m yet to settle on the theme (can be part of the scope to advise/suggest), but I know the fonts I want to use (appropriate web use licenses purchased).

Mostly pages at start (likely <5, with a form or two), not blog posts, but I might want to post down the track (so set up but not in navigation menus for now).

This is for my own sole trader small business I’m setting up – aiming for simple self-support, not rampant business growth.

I have a *strict* “No AI” policy in all facets of the business, including any design/coding work (I will not undertake, accept, or condone theft from other workers, let alone all the other issues).

If paid gig, Aussies with an ABN preferred, but neither is a deal breaker for the right person.

Voluntary help from anywhere gratefully accepted 😀 (Cheeky, I know, but I’m between gigs right now!)

Please boost for reach.

I posted earlier about my attempts to improve my site rendering speed by upgrading my blog server's RAM. As I noted in that post, it didn't seem like the changes made much if any difference to the rendering speed in the Safari browser. After much experimentation, I can hereby clarify/correct all of my previous observations [...]

Glenton Samuels commented the proposal for the future WordPress admin materials and surfaces and laid it down very clearly why using React for it is a bad idea. And I fully agree with it.

Just to quote the conclusion, but it’s worth to read the full post:

A full React rewrite may look cutting-edge, but it threatens the broad community, the ecosystem, and WordPress’s future sustainability. […]

Dear #WordPress Admins,

I have running WP inside a container, behind #traefik with #crowdsec and the #wordpress-bouncer working fine. But I would love to configure the #geoblock feature with the #geblock feature. Besides writing my own script, is there an option to update the #geoLite2 Database automatically by #crowdsec or the #crowdsec plugin. Am I missing something?

Dear WordPress Geeks

Has anyone tried to use S3fs and mount a bucket directly to use it as the wp-content folder to avoid all the hassle with 3rd party plugins on WordPress like offload media?
