WordPress 6.7 added PluginPreviewMenuItem, a Slot/Fill point in the editor Preview dropdown. This walks through enqueuing the assets, registering the menu item, and reading unsaved post data with useSelect for a social card preview.
WooCommerce 10.6 ships March 10, 2026. It cuts checkout SQL queries with deferred transient deletion, batches admin options, and breaks three things worth patching first: Store API per_page, lazy-loaded images, and a null breadcrumb argument.
Notes from building a private GPU-as-a-Service platform on-prem: partitioning GPUs with MIG and time-slicing, keeping the cluster in sync with an idempotent reconciler, and working out the cost per million tokens before finance asks.
WooCommerce 10.5.2 reverts the change that left the Add to Cart button disabled on variable products when a theme or plugin altered how the variation scripts load. What went wrong, and the WP-CLI steps to update without stale variation data.

WordPress 7.0 Beta 1 slipped a day after unit tests failed in the REST autosave controller and Gutenberg’s real-time collaboration work. Why a broken autosave is worth delaying a release for, and where to follow the fix.
