I’m pretty excited about this little quality of life update in the block editor. I habitually try to do this shortcut all the time!

Me: I won’t add any more features before Siren’s launch, I swear!
Also Me: This is too useful to not squeeze in real-quick. Besides, I want it for Siren’s affiliate program.
Now I gotta update the docs 😅.

So this is kinda neat. I added a tiny little widget to my WordPress dashboard that allows me to speed up the process of publishing microposts (tweets) on my site.

I got Siren’s deployment process all set up and ready to so, along with licensing and the auto-updates. It’s just a matter of fixing a few tiny bugs I’ve noticed while doing docs, and it’ll be ready for June 4th. Can’t wait!

I need to think a bit about onboarding with Siren. Right now, it kinda just installs the plugin without any context. I don’t want to do a full-blown wizard before launch, but maybe a single “getting started” screen would be useful. Hmm.

Hah! Mr Web literally just posted a really detailed how to for building a car dealer marketplace in WordPress. I just talking about this yesterday in my recently posted video on how to sell expensive things using Siren.
Great minds!

One of the most exciting things about Siren’s multi-program approach is that you can create a program that focuses on generating leads, and then another program that focuses on converting those leads. This splits the responsibility, and makes it possible to run an affiliate program for higher-dollar sales items that, prior to this, were difficult to do well with a single affiliate program.
