#WordPressWednesday 2013 Volume 10

Another busy week in the WordPress world. We’re seeing WordPress 3.7 on Beta version 2. Also, some of the premium WordPress theme companies have been busy with releasing more themes.

For anyone just tuning into my site, #WordPressWedneday is held every Wednesday and its a recap of some of what is going on in the WordPress community. I try my best to cover a healthy portion of newsworthy material.

I’ve had some submissions for WordPress resources to look into including in my weekly roundup, but I’ve been kind of angry as those places merely copied tutorials from other places without a real understanding that they aren’t giving unique and quality content, nor are they demonstrating an honest knowledge of WordPress.

I certainly accept suggestions, but I’m pretty picky. Even the curated sites I use, I go straight to the original source.
