Never let WordPress send mail natively on a VPS — use SMTP or a transactional service.

I stopped using page builders once the block editor matured.

Every build of mine starts with the same six plugins and grows from there.

Maybe this has been discussed before, but I could not find anything recent.

Rank Math here too — the schema options alone are worth it.

SMTP with a transactional service fixed all my contact-form complaints.

Bumping this because I ran into the same thing today.

Good point, I had not thought of it that way.

Could not agree more.

Cloudflare plus a light cache plugin is enough for most small sites.

That has been my experience as well.

Page builders still have their place for landing pages, just not whole sites.

Nice thread, following for the replies.

My baseline list is almost identical to yours.

Thanks for sharing, saved me a lot of time.

Interesting — I will have to try that.
