Announcing GT Changelog Podcast Episode 128: Deep Dive Into Gutenberg 22.7 & WordPress 7.0 Dev Notes!
We’re back with another packed episode of the GT Changelog Podcast! In episode 128, host Birgit Pauli-Haack welcomes JavaScript developer and full-time WordPress contributor Maggie Cabrera for an insightful conversation about all things Gutenberg and WordPress.
In this episode, we unpack the highlights of Gutenberg 22.7, with a special focus on the latest features coming to WordPress 7.0. From the innovative navigation overlays—earning plenty of “oohs” from the community—to the long-awaited pseudo selectors in theme.json, our speakers share behind-the-scenes perspectives on development.
Birgit Pauli-Haack and Maggie Cabrera explore game-changing updates like the new breadcrumbs block, PHP-only block registration, and the emerging real-time collaboration features. They also discuss the vision for my.wordpress.net—WordPress running right in your browser for ultimate digital sovereignty.
