Viptor Says: New Design for WordPress News!
READING TIME: MIN
Hello, everyone, I’m back, and I’m bringing you something exciting again. But first, I want to start with some life philosophies that we’ve been thinking about at our WordPress development agency. Change is a good thing to happen most times, whether we like it or not. It pushes us to get out of our comfort zone and embrace how life moves us.
This time, in particular, change is a piece of extremely happy news. It’s something to hype up the whole WordPress community – WordPress developers, users, and overall WordPress lovers. As you probably expect from the title, the news is that WordPress.org/news is changing its design! If you want to learn more about it, then keep reading!
What to expect?
We are all familiar with the WordPress blog page that has remained the same for many years. Its simplicity and functionality are what made us all (including our WordPress agency for development) love it. It has a white-space-filled design, making it very easy to navigate through the page.
However, the site keeps evolving in many ways – the type of published content, the readers, etc., they all have changed. That’s why it’s normal for the site to take on a new direction as well. It has to suit everyone’s needs as well as its own. What is more, WordPress itself has changed a lot which makes redesigning the site a logical decision to make.
There are WordPress visual materials that are influenced by jazz aesthetics. Hence, it’s understandable what direction the design is going to take. There’ll be many things taken into consideration such as typography, colors, layouts. That will improve the readability and the user experience. There are many suggestions concerning the design that I hope will turn into a reality.
The redesigning
Me and my professional WordPress development company expect nothing but the best from the new design. More space will be left for the content. This way, the page will look open and not as boxed. The current widely used font on the site is Open Sans. It’s great, yet Inter font looks likely to be taking over the page soon since it works well for screens and reading.
Another thing that will probably change is the navigation bar and the footer. The idea is to make them more simple so the site looks more visually appealing. Many pieces are still being refined – the blog’s home page, text styles, etc. As for the colors – blue is working very well with the Gutenberg language. Other changes are coming our way, all of them looking very promising.
How can you contribute?
If you like to contribute to the WordPress community, then I have great news for you. You can help with the redesigning of WordPress.org/news. The all-volunteer team is looking for various designers willing to become the go-to resource for design for the teams that are part of the WordPress open source project.
Our WordPress agency for development is extremely excited to see the new design, and I’m sure you are as well. If you want to stay updated about everything going on in the WordPress world, then you are on the right page. Expect more interesting news to come your way very soon!
