🌐 What is Planet FAIR?
-
A community-curated aggregation of WordPress-related blog posts — development, themes, plugins, advocacy, events, and more.
-
Inspired by Planet Drupal, this version is designed specifically for sites sourcing content from https://fair.pm. It aims to share valuable WordPress knowledge that visitors might not otherwise encounter.
🟢 Content that is great for Planet FAIR
-
How-tos, guides, and tutorials on using WordPress effectively
-
Plugin, theme, and block announcements with meaningful discussion or background (especially from FAIR distributions)
-
Case studies showing how WordPress was used in a project
-
Presentation slides or notes from WordPress talks and meetups
-
Community news, such as initiative progress updates
-
Posts about FAIR itself, including updates on FAIR governance, new FAIR features, or community contributions to FAIR
🚫 Content that does not fit Planet FAIR
-
Press releases (should be shared via each site’s own channels when using FAIR)
-
Sponsored posts
-
Job announcements or hiring calls (mentioning a career change is fine if not the main focus)
-
General posts that only mention WordPress briefly
-
“I Love WordPress!” posts without actionable or valuable information
-
Posts focused primarily on affiliate links or purely monetized content
📝 Other places for special WordPress-related content
-
Press releases are not included; sites sourcing this from https://fair.pm should share those through their own official channels.
-
Event announcements should be posted on local Meetup pages, WordCamp, and event websites.
