From today’s #core-customize meeting:
- Before the meeting, @joen left some good thoughts on how we can start thinking about columns.
- Plus, some visual ideas from @iandstewart and @binarymoon:
- Would be great to see more comments on https://make.wordpress.org/core/2017/01/19/customization-in-2017/ and walkthroughs on https://make.wordpress.org/design/2017/01/18/share-a-walkthrough-of-setting-up-a-wordpress-site/
- There’s a backlog of tickets: https://core.trac.wordpress.org/query?status=accepted&status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&status=reviewing&component=Customize&groupdesc=1&group=milestone&col=id&col=summary&col=status&col=owner&col=type&col=priority&col=version&col=changetime&col=focuses&col=keywords&order=changetime
- We’re going to do a ticketticket Created for both bug reports and feature development on the bug tracker. scrub tomorrow Tuesday at 1:00pm EST.
- We need to identify which items need to to be milestoned for 4.7.2, which are among low-hanging fruit for subsequent point releases, and which are bigger picture for end of year (which need long-term planning and architecture)
- There are currently 8 tickets milestones for the next minor releaseMinor Release A set of releases or versions having the same minor version number may be collectively referred to as .x , for example version 5.2.x to refer to versions 5.2, 5.2.1, 5.2.3, and all other versions in the 5.2 (five dot two) branch of that software. Minor Releases often make improvements to existing features and functionality.
- We talked about prioritizing a richer text widget and/or media widget in the short-term, and determined a richer text widgetWidget A WordPress Widget is a small block that performs a specific function. You can add these widgets in sidebars also known as widget-ready areas on your web page. WordPress widgets were originally created to provide a simple and easy-to-use way of giving design and structure control of the WordPress theme to the user. with media library capabilitiescapability A capability is permission to perform one or more types of task. Checking if a user has a capability is performed by the
current_user_canfunction. Each user of a WordPress site might have some permissions but not others, depending on their role. For example, users who have the Author role usually have permission to edit their own posts (the “edit_posts” capability), but not permission to edit other users’ posts (the “edit_others_posts” capability). is the higher priority.
Thanks @iandstewart for help with notes. Drop by #core-customize next week on Monday at 1:00pm EST for the next full meeting, or join us at the same time tomorrow for ticket triaging.
