WordPress Roundup: June 2024 Copy


Welcome to the WordPress Roundup, a monthly digest of the latest news and updates from the WordPress community.

Each month, we’ll bring you a curated selection of the most important developments affecting all WordPress users, regardless of your experience level. Whether you’re a seasoned developer, a dedicated site owner, or just starting your first WordPress site, you’re an integral part of our community.

We aim to keep you informed of the most recent WordPress core developments and upcoming releases that promise to make your site-building experience even more seamless and powerful.

We’ll also highlight plugins and themes that can help elevate your site, important community events and notable contributions from WordPress developers, and tips to help you stay ahead of the curve in this ever-evolving ecosystem.

This month’s edition looks closely at the WordPress 6.6 Release, Section Styles, WordCamp Europe and US, and everything you need to know about WordCamps. Let’s dive in!

WordPress 6.6 Release

Last month’s roundup provided an overview of WordPress 6.6, which should arrive on July 16th, 2024. Among its main features are advanced design tools, unified publish flow, and the ability for users to mix and match typography and colors.

We did not highlight Section Styles in the roundup, but they have quickly emerged as a standout feature. Section Styles streamline the design process, making it more efficient and user-friendly, enhancing the web development experience. Enabling users to apply curated styles with a single click removes the necessity for tedious manual adjustments.

This feature has plenty of use cases, ranging from users experimenting with design via the block and site editors to sophisticated agencies leveraging it for client websites.

Rich Tabor, Product Designer at Automattic, wrote an article titled I made 720 WordPress theme styles, which showcases the power of Section Styles through his work on the Assembler theme.

What’s next for Section Styles?

The Global Styles UI for block style variations will undergo significant enhancements, making it easier to customize styles for all inner elements and block types. These improvements streamline the design process and provide a more intuitive and efficient way to apply and modify styles across your site.

This update may also include improvements to the Style Book, which would allow it to support block style variations more effectively.

Additionally, a potential future enhancement would enable setting customization for each block style variation, further expanding users’ flexibility and control.

The GitHub tracking issue provides a comprehensive overview of the discussions and developments regarding Section Styles.

Earlier this week, WordPress 6.6 RC2 became available for download and testing. You can test this exciting release in four convenient ways: via Plugin, Direct Download, Command Line, and WordPress Playground. Get involved and help shape the future of WordPress!
