We’ve released a new add-on for PublishPress called “Reminders“.

The Reminders add-on allows you to automatically send notifications before or after content is published.

Here’s a preview of how Reminders will appear inside your PublishPress site:

Version 2.0 of the Permissions add-on is now available.

This is a major update, so I’ll give you a detailed overview of what the add-on does and what has changed.

PublishPress is based on another WordPress plugin called Edit Flow.

Edit Flow was a wonderful plugin, but many of the key features were implemented in 2009 / 2010.

WordPress has become a different platform over the last 8 years. So as we develop PublishPress, we’re updating some of the older Edit Flow features that need a different approach for 2018. One of those older features was the user groups.

In this post, I’ll give you an overview of how Edit Flow/PublishPress used to handle user groups. I’ll then explain what’s changed in this latest release of PublishPress.

In this guide, I’m going to introduce you to the 8 statuses available for WordPress posts.

These statuses control whether WordPress posts are visible to the entire world, waiting for moderation, or sent to the trash to await deletion.

A PublishPress user came to us with an interesting question. They wanted to know if there were any plugins that can track content changes in WordPress, including when content moved between different statuses.

I decided to install and test seven plugins that can track content changes.

I’ve got some apologizing to do.

About two weeks ago, I started to move the PublishPress.com domain name from one domain registrar to another.

These moves between registrars take about a week to complete. The final time of these moves seems to be random and impossible to predict.

Many WordPress themes rely on Excerpts, but they can be a mystery to many users.

In this post I’ll explain what an Excerpt is, how you create them, where they appear, and how you can get more control over how they’re used on your site.

Version 1.10 of PublishPress is available today.

This release improves two features – calendar subscriptions and notifications for multiple users. It also fixes some issues that had been bugging users.

Let’s give you a quick overview of what’s new in this week’s PublishPress release.
