I only found you in the last month or so. I know you are having fun at BAE, but I sure do wish you still posted the in-depth stuff that you used to post. Thanks for all that you did post.

[nicolaskeith]

Didn't even realize I needed this, but I need this!
Also, Alex, if I may: please do more ACF videos on clever ways of using custom fields on WP installs. You always have great ideas in this department.

Great Tutorial I have followed all of your videos you have teaches me a lot of things as developer about Wp Development Thanks a lot

Thanks for the Tip! I looked a bit more into it and it seems like in WordPress 5.5 they actually added a specific filter for this:
add_filter( 'do_redirect_guess_404_permalink', '__return_false' );
So you can use this aswell.

Hi Alex!
You make great videos with excellent content. You've really changed my view on Wordpress and its place in web development. I hope you'll continue to cover Wordpress in the future!

Could you possibly make a video covering the basics (or in-depth) of WP-Cron?

Great tutorial here! I find it quite helpful lately to dig into the WordPress redirect and request system. It‘s great to try to understand the underlying process and „thoughts“ it‘s doing. Would be great do do a follow up on this topic about the request system and how WP is determine which post type or taxinomy to load. Once I got this, it‘s suuuuper helpful to build great custom url structures or combine different content types and taxonomies which each other… maybe someone is interested on this as well! Cheers and keep going the great content @WPCasts!

Hi,
Really a great tutorial. I liked it very much. I have a question for you. Could you tell me how WordPress recognises which one is filter and which one is action. Because if you go to the source code of WordPress you can see function add_action is calling add_filter.

Alex, I miss your content. Any plan to come back?

What's happened to your weekly videos??

Hi there. Could you continue the tutorial series on creating an own Elementor widget? I think this is still a hot topic.

Hey bro! I'm a total WordPress noob, just got the basics down, but I wanna go pro! I'm all about diving into advanced stuff like WordPress hooks, functions, speed optimization, plugin, and theme development, and all the troubleshooting tricks. I'm on a mission to kickstart my freelancing career. Can you hook us up with a course covering beginner to advanced levels in WordPress, starting from scratch? I'm a student from a really poor family, just trying to learn WordPress to hustle on freelancing platforms like Fiverr and Upwork and give my career a boost in the web development field. Anyway, lots of love from India!❤
