Classic editor vs block editor in 2026 — follow-up

wp-cron only fires on page views, so low-traffic sites should switch to system cron.

My rule of thumb: if a plugin has not been updated in a year, it is a liability.

Child themes are still the correct way to override a theme you do not control.

Would love to hear how you all handle this.

I did a bit of searching but could not find a recent thread on this, so here we go.

Headless WP is fun but a lot of moving parts for a blog.

I cap client sites at 15 plugins, anything above that needs justification.

That has been my experience as well.
