Scripting News: Thursday, April 16, 2026  🔗 **Source:** [Scripting News: Thursday, April 16, 2026](http://scripting.com/2026/04/16.html#a121936) WordPress has remained mostly constant for its whole life, at least from the point of view of this outsider. But now the world its embedded in is turning upside down and WordPress must change, but no one really knows how that change will manifest. [#](http://scripting.com/2026/04/16.html#a121936) The [opmlProjectEditor explainer](https://this.how/opmlProjectEditor/) needed a light edit. It should make a lot more sense now if you're a newcomer. Perhaps the most important thing is that it now includes an example that you can open in Drummer to see how it works in an outline editor. OPML has become a really important format for apps that use RSS, but it's far more broadly adaptable. It's a good package for a whole app, and you can teach your tools to use the common structure to make it easier to share it with others, to keep a repo current, and to deploy the resulting code.

You know those obnoxious sites that pop up dialogs when they think you're about to leave, asking you to subscribe to their email newsletter? Well that won't do for Scripting News readers who are a discerning lot, very loyal, but that wouldn't last long if I did rude stuff like that. So here I am at the bottom of the page *quietly* encouraging you to [sign up for the nightly email](http://scripting.com/email/). It's got everything from the previous day on Scripting, plus the contents of the linkblog and who knows what else we'll get in there. People really love it. I wish I had done it sooner. And every email has an unsub link so if you want to get out, you can, easily -- no questions asked, and no follow-ups. Go ahead and do it, you won't be sorry! :-), Scripting News: Thursday, April 16, 2026, scripting.com, 01kpb8n3vrbmmm7kcnc4ppc2wt.
