PublishPress Series has a new update this week: version 2.7.1. The PublishPress Series plugin allows you to collect WordPress content together into a series.

The Post Expirator plugin allows you to choose an “expire” date for WordPress posts. The plugin has over 100,000 users and has been working reliably for years. We’re delighted to say that Post Expirator is now part of PublishPress and it has new name: “PublishPress Future“.

Both the Gutenberg Editor and Elementor are excellent ways to build a WordPress website. We recently checked the numbers and found that these are the two fastest growing options for WordPress sites.
