Post Status Excerpt (No. 17) — Acquisition Tracker, WordPress 5.8, #ClickPublish

Acquisitions in the WordPress space, WordPress 5.8, WordFest Live, Elementor is 5, and #ClickPublish

In this episode of Post Status Excerpt, David Bisset and Cory Miller chat about how the new Post Status Acquisition Tracker is a window into significant moments and trends in WordPress history. With WordPress 5.8 released this week, it will be interesting to see how theme developers react and adapt to it in the coming months and years. It seems some people aren't happy about a certain change to the Media Library.

Also covered in this episode: On the eve of WordFest 2021, David notes Elementor's fifth anniversary and how they might be installed on about 12% of all WordPress sites. Cory shares the #ClickPublish movement he's started on Post Status Slack.
