In this popup notification guide, we cover the best practices for adding them to your site and share some creative ideas so that you can get the best results without annoying your visitors.

For luxury and premium eCommerce brands, a high-quality product detail page (PDP) is crucial.
By providing comprehensive information, including product photography, sizing details, and shipping information, a PDP empowers potential customers to make informed decisions without the need for an in-store visit.
So, how do brands optimize their PDPs and enhance consumer engagement?
Vervaunt has published an excellent guide with examples on what makes a best-in-class product page for premium brands.

Studio by WordPress.com, a new (and free) desktop app that helps developers streamline their local WordPress development workflow.
Studio offers a seamless solution for creating and running WordPress sites directly on your local machine, as well as showcasing work-in-progress sites with your clients, teams, and colleagues.
Behind the scenes, Studio uses WordPress Playground, the WebAssembly-powered PHP binary. Thanks to this technology, there is no need to use a traditional web server, making your development experience much quicker and smoother.
This looks like an interesting alternative to Local, which I use to run WordPress on my local machine.

An in-depth i18n performance analysis showed that localized WordPress sites load significantly slower than a site without translations.
However, in WordPress 6.5 this was dramatically overhauled and with a new approach to localization, this overhead is massively reduced, making your site fast again.
If your site is using a language other than English (US), you should see immediate speed improvements in 6.5 upwards.
The new approach is faster at loading binary .mo files and uses less memory. It even supports loading multiple locales at the same time, which makes locale switching faster.
In addition to that, it supports translations contained in PHP files, avoiding a binary file format and leveraging OPCache if available.
