Weekly WordPress News: Product Support, Gutenberg, And Page Builders
There wasn’t much WordPress core news this week – perhaps everyone was too busy with Valentine’s plans.
We do have some good articles on offering support for WordPress products, developers doing interesting things with Gutenberg, and how some of the most popular page builders stack up when it comes to performance.
We also have detailed guides to two connected topics – permalinks and 301 redirects, as well as a bunch of other cool stuff.
Let’s get to all of this week’s news…
