The next WordPress Developers Chat is scheduled for Wednesday, June 24, 2026 at 15:00 UTC in the core channel on Make WordPress Slack. The live meeting will focus on upcoming releases, with an open floor for discussion and ticket assistance. The agenda highlights the 7.1 release squad announcement, the 7.1 roadmap, a merge proposal for a new custom post type in 7.1, and the decision to hide the Classic block from the inserter by default in 7.1. General items include the 7.0.1 release schedule, a retrospective of the 7.0 release, a recap of restoring removed version history, and a summary of new features in Gutenberg 23.4. Participants are encouraged to bring tickets and questions to the chat, with priority given to tickets in the milestone for the next major or maintenance release. The agenda also invites comments and nominations for discussion topics, ensuring that important issues affecting the upcoming release or larger initiatives are addressed.

The dev chat provides an opportunity for developers to stay informed about core changes, contribute feedback, and coordinate on upcoming features and fixes.
