Scribblemacher<p>I wasted a bunch of time trying to figure out why a form on a <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/WordPress" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WordPress</span></a> application was not working for some tests. Turns out that `wp_sanitize_email()` doesn't just sanitize but will return empty if it doesn't think the email is valid. So a technically valid email like doe@example would be returned as empty. It was like sanitizing a string with bleach; can't be dangerous if it's empty, I guess. <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/WebDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WebDev</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/PHP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PHP</span></a></p>

Don Burnside<p>One of the biggest blocks I have currently with the federation of all of my stuff, is having the ability to add a CW (content warning) to a post. </p><p>I search on the issue, and there should already be a way to do this. Probably need a latest and great block theme, using the block editor. Gross. </p><p>Any <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/federated" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>federated</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Wordpress" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wordpress</span></a> folks get content warnings, per post, working? </p><p>(boosts are free!)</p>
Christiaan Kras<p>Actually using <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Redis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Redis</span></a> as a cache and seeing it degrades performance on an app is something I've witnessed with something else as well, on a different server. I host my own <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://floss.social/@forgejo" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>forgejo</span></a></span> instance and though I'd make it even more snappier with Redis as a cache. But that slowed it down by a lot as well, just as it did with <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/WordPress" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WordPress</span></a>!</p><p>Using the default caching mechanism was much faster for me and still makes <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Forgejo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Forgejo</span></a> very fast. At least for an instance with just me as its user ;-).</p>
Christiaan Kras<p>And the reason for not using <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/memcached" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>memcached</span></a> with <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/WordPress" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WordPress</span></a> is because that plug-in is seemingly unmaintained and requires manually moving files after you install it.</p>
Christiaan Kras<p>So, my server issues have been resolved. My current server performs great again after it was migrated to another host. The new one performs similar, or actually a tad bit better. So that's a nice alternative to have and it'll let me spread some of the sites. Less sites down when there's something going on with one of the servers.</p><p>But on both of them <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Redis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Redis</span></a> Object Cache for <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/WordPress" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WordPress</span></a> degrades website performance A LOT. It wasn't like that before and have ran it for a couple of years now.</p>

Kurz nach spät.<p><strong>Mach deinen WordPress-Blog zu einer Fediverse-Instanz</strong></p> Spätestens seit dem Umbau unseres einst geliebten Twitter zu einer Müllkippe namens X, Elon Musks persönlichen Entgleisungen und den Zensuren seitens Meta auf Instagram dürfte ein Großteil der Internetbevölkerung mal vom Fediverse gehört oder gelesen haben. Oder doch nicht? Was ist das Fediverse? Das Fediverse (ein Kofferwort aus "Federation" und "Universe") ist ein dezentrales Netzwerk aus unabhängigen sozialen Medien-Plattformen, die miteinander kommunizieren können. Anders als bei zentralisierten Diensten wie Facebook, Instagram oder X (ehem. Twitter) gibt es keine einzelne Firma, die alle Daten kontrolliert. Stattdessen besteht das Fediverse aus tausenden unabhängigen Servern (Instanzen), die über offene Protokolle miteinander kommunizieren.
