EP461 – Ten Years to Launch

In 2013, Suzette Franck, one of the original cohosts of the WPwatercooler, made a trac ticket suggesting the WordPress project “Add a ‘Contribute’ tab to the About page” of the WordPress Dashboard. After some discussion, the ticket fell dormant. Ten years later, WordPress core contributor Olga Glekler revived the still-relevant ticket, and championed the cause throughout the MakeWP community. In WordPress 6.3, that ten-year old idea was finally realized, with the launch of the brand-new “Get Involved” tab. And in this episode, we will be joined by both Suzette and Olga to talk about the journey of ten-year ticket!
