WordPress Glossary – How to Use WP Terms Correctly

In this article, we will analyze the basic terminology of WordPress, for easier understanding and perception.

For someone, posts are equal to pages, someone does not know about posts, only knows about records, and for someone, the archive is “where the documents are.” This article aims to eliminate such errors so that it becomes easier to communicate within the WordPress community.

Before starting, let’s outline a few rules by which I compiled this dictionary:

  • Not all concepts are described here, otherwise, the list of terms will grow into a development guide. But perhaps in the future, there will be a more detailed analysis of WordPress terms.
  • The terms below are not in alphabetical order but are grouped by the scope and arranged by occurrence in wp development and the community.

How to Perfect The Art of Popups

Great advertisements enhance the user experience instead of disrupting it.

By their nature, advertisements are interruptions. This is true whether it’s a multi-million-dollar Super Bowl ad or a fifty cent click on a search engine link.

Cross-Platform Development and Mobile Apps

When developing a mobile app, there are several factors to consider: functionality, adaptability, cost, and optimization. Cross-platform allows developers to write code for several operating systems at once. For business it is an opportunity to save money, launch faster and reach a larger segment of users

Cross-platform applications are running on multiple operating systems at once. The task of programmers is to write code that deploys well on all operating systems.

That universal approach to development fulfills two important conditions: saving time and money. Developers make the application much faster. Or rather, the app itself is developed as much as an iPhone or Android app. But if a business orders an app for different systems, it takes twice as much time to develop. As well as money.

But there are disadvantages: cross-platform applications are not as flexible as native ones, because it is difficult to implement all the features to make them work well on different devices. App stores have their own requirements, and they need to be taken into account during development. This creates additional discomfort and difficulties.

Principles of Landing Page

A landing page is a separate web page designed solely for a marketing or advertising campaign in digital marketing. It’s the location where a visitor “lands” after clicking on a link in an email or ads from Google, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or other websites.

Unlike web pages, which usually have multiple purposes and promote research, landing pages have a single emphasis or goal, referred to as a call to action.

Landing pages are the ideal tool for raising the conversion rates of your marketing campaigns and minimizing the cost of gaining a lead or sale because of this concentration. And therefore, a must for making business in the Web.

Ban GitHub for Russian Developers!

The world is an ever-evolving place. Technologies develop fast and make life for people easier… but at the same time more demanding. Unfortunately, not every step taken is used for good. War is a gruesome but flashy testing ground for all kinds of new technologies.  Right now russians are boasting their “technological achievements” in Kharkiv, Kyiv, Mariupol and dozens of other cities in Ukraine. By slaughtering thousands of innocent people by means and weapons unimaginable just a several decades ago.  

And most people don’t have the power to stop it. 

However, what they can do is prevent the aggressor from developing new ways to cause atrocities and kill even more civilians. Viktor Kozlovets has started the petition on change.org to restrict access to GitHub for russians. 

GitHub is the biggest international repository for open-sourced software. In a peaceful time, it is a great idea to share knowledge and developments for people all around the world. But unfortunately, open-sourced code can also be used by russian government in all kinds of warfare. Informational, media and even weapon-building. 

Sign up the petition to cripple the russian war machine. The sooner the war ends the less damage it will cause for the whole world.
