Daily reminder to update all your WordPress themes and plugins. Anything that can be exploited will be exploited.

I changed the rankings to treat plugins which remote inject /wp-admin/ notifications as the worst offenders: dismissed.fyi. I think this more accurate then a raw count of notifications. Will continue to let AI run scans and improve the database sourcing.

Unlimited tokens can solve most of WordPress security related problems. I’m not really interested in that. I am interested in seeing how far I can push my $200/month Claude Max account. Efficiency is everything.

WordPress.org is adding a temporary 24-hour delay before plugin and theme updates are distributed through auto-updates. The pause creates a window for security review, including the use of AI-assisted tools that can operate continuously. You can read the full details on what this means for the 78,000 plugins and themes in the directory. wp.me/sZhYe-pts

Whoa this is fantastic. I’m in full support. wordpress.org/news/2026/06/p…
I’ve been considering doing this for my Anchor Hosting customers. As in, update themes/plugins to newer versions only after the new code has been audited by my AI scanner.

Created a database of /wp-admin/ notifications yesterday. Why? Because nothing shows the problem better then the raw data exposed visually. Just started to backfill a few of the plugins so you can see the increase of /wp-admin/ notices over time.

Claude Design Claude Max WordPress WP-CLI/SSH fetching idea to build a hall of shame for /wp-admin/ notices = dismissed.fyi
I built this in a few hours so bare with me while I pour in real data. Right now not all of findings are 100% accurate.

If self driving cars could someday get so good that it becomes unsafe to drive cars as humans, could we similarly become unsafe to let the humans code? Or maybe we’re already there?

Had the honor of chatting with @wpbuilds on the WP Tavern @wptavern all of about how I've been using AI in WordPress.

If you think there are less opportunities now that we have powerful AI, think again. I have to stop myself from accidentally creating new businesses. There are literally opportunities all around us. Most of it, very low hanging fruit. Just find someone and help them.

Real world story, my $200/month Claude Max subscription has more then paid for itself in real world business expenses. I used it to rewrite my backend code running my maintenance server to Go, offloaded a bunch of storage to B2 and reduce my Oracle Cloud instance by $400/month.
