PHP 7  has been around for well over a year now, and yet only 4.5% of sites have made the upgrade from PHP 5. With users and their hosts lagging behind, a large number of sites remain more vulnerable to hacking and performance issues than their updated counterparts. As a WordPress developer, you hold much more sway and influence than you might think. Brands such as Yoast are asking you to use that power to help upgrade the internet as a whole. You can do this by adding nudges to your plugins using Yoast’s WHIP framework. This helps you inform the user […]

UpdraftPlus (the backup plugin with 1 million installs) has just announced the launch of Keyy, the 2-factor authentication plugin that enables users to log into websites just by pointing their smartphone at the computer screen, eliminating the need for typed-in passwords. If the idea sounds familiar, that’s because it probably is: as its developers openly admit, Keyy is inspired by and based on another WordPress plugin called Clef. Clef’s distinctive and innovative approach to integrated 2 factor-authentication heralded unprecedented login speed and usability.
