Pressing Topics is a daily podcast hosted by Malcolm Peralty and myself. We discuss the news that’s making headlines in the WordPress ecosystem as well as related topics that catch our eyes. Generally speaking, if you listen to this show on a daily basis, you should have a good idea on what’s going on in the WordPress community.

In this episode, Malcolm and I review the most common mistakes WordPress theme developers make based on a veteran theme reviewer’s experience, the 10 best countries to outsource software development too, and a new proposal to the Plugin Directory Guidelines.

Due to a software issue, the volume of my voice in the beginning of the show varies from loud to quiet to loud again. The audio normalizes after about 5-10 minutes. I’ve made some software changes and am hopeful the audio quality in episode three is much better.
