This week on The WP Week Podcast, we cover WordPress Accessibility Day 2026, the upcoming WordPress 7.2 release and its new testing schedule, updates to the Presence API, and Gutenberg 24.1’s expanded design tools. We also look at WordPress.org’s move from HelpScout to FreeScout and WooCommerce moving its experimental Dual API into a dedicated plugin.
In the community, we discuss WordCamp Asia 2027’s call for Wapuu designs, a new WooCommerce store defect study, GoDaddy receiving a takeover offer from Gen Digital, and a record 1,021 new WordPress plugin submissions in a single week. We also explore the growing challenges of maintaining AI-generated plugins and the latest AI-agent integrations for WordPress.
Plus, we highlight new projects including WP Update Guard, Modular DS’s MCP server, Infinite Uploads’ AI-agent support, OpenStation, and more.
