WordPress Origin Story

I have no idea where to begin, really! I used to make all websites for myself from scratch. This included complex programming. But then for a time I ran a small and digital marketing business and people wanted to control their own website, not pay a web designer to do them. I tried a few CMSs and only WordPress seemed to tick all the boxes.

Since my daughter was born, my already-bad chronic illness took a turn for the worst and I had to stop the business. But I started my own gaming blog and have taken up making plugins for myself again. Combining what coding I know with the in-built tools available, there’s almost nothing you can’t achieve.

I don’t use block editing, though. I’m too much of a control freak for that, and I prefer Classic Editor and code!

Tagging 1.5.2. I didn't do 1.5 or 1.5.1 because of missing some details. Thus 1.5.2 is the full 1.5. Sorry.

Repo didn't reflect the fix of the error on Line 71. I've removed the offending function so it should all work now.
