Before diving into the details of this announcement, I want to address something important. I am, like all of you, a human being. Given the current tensions in the WordPress ecosystem, my decision to move from WP Engine to Automattic might evoke strong feelings. Whether you agree or disagree with this decision, please recognize me as a human. Please treat me with respect, even if you strongly oppose my choices. The WordPress community is one I care deeply about, and we all benefit from respectful dialogue, no matter our differences.

Hello WPGraphQL Community,

“What is a REPL?”, “Who are you?”, and “What have you done with Jason?” are all good questions you might be asking. I will start with the most important one. Hello, I am Alex aka “moonmeister”! I have been around for a while and you might have seen me in Slack or chatted with me when I worked at Gatsby or WP Engine. I recently started wpdecoupled.dev where I write about all things decoupled/headless WordPress. I mostly work on the JavaScript side of code and leave the PHP to folks like Jason Bahl and David Levine.

WPGraphQL Smart Cache is quickly becoming the standard solution for fast and accurate data when using WPGraphQL for decoupled applications. Since launching in December 2022, it’s grown to 500+ active users!

WPGraphQL is fast becoming the standard for building decoupled WordPress websites and applications. Most of the official WordPress boilerplates for JavaScript frameworks such as NextJS and Gatsby use WPGraphQL as the data source..

WPGraphQL makes it easy to expose Custom Post Types and Taxonomies to the GraphQL Schema.

WPGraphQL v1.12.0 introduces new options for customizing how Post Types and Taxonomies are exposed to the WPGraphQL Schema. The goal of this post is to show how to use some of these options in action. You can read this post for an overview of all the options, or check out the release..

I recently published a video walking through how End to End tests are set up for WPGraphQL, but I thought it would be good to publish a more direct step-to-step tutorial to help WordPress plugin developers set up End 2 End tests for their own WordPress plugins.

One of the most common ways WordPress is used, is by users visiting a URL of a WordPress site and reading the content on the page.

In this post, we’ll look at how we can create a simple Book Store using WordPress, WPGraphQL and Atlas Content Modeler, a new plugin from WP Engine that allows Custom Post Types, Custom Taxonomies and Custom Fields to be created in the WordPress dashboard and allows the data to be accessed from WPGraphQL.
