Roadmap
WordPress is continually evolving through the Gutenberg project, a long-term reimagining of how content is created and managed on the web, with the goal of broadening access to a strong web presence for individuals, creators, and modern businesses. Phase 1 introduced the Block Editor in WordPress 5.0, while Phase 2 focused on Site Editing, culminating in WordPress 6.3 with the launch of the Site Editor and powerful Block-based tools that extend across an entire site. Today, Phase 3 is underway, centered on collaborative editing and workflows, bringing real-time collaboration and smoother publishing processes to WordPress. For deeper detail on Site Editing, its components, and other active feature work, explore the Feature Projects Overview.
The project has the following big picture goals for 2026:
- Core Development & WordPress 7.0 — Deliver three major releases in 2026 with WordPress 7.0 advancing Phase 3 collaboration features, client-side media handling, responsive styling controls, and expanded block tools to boost creativity and performance.
- AI Everywhere, With Clear Guardrails and Benchmarks — Intentionally embed AI across the WordPress experience to simplify creation, workflows, and contribution — while establishing project-wide guidelines that uphold transparency, user control, and WordPress values.
- Revamping Meetups — Strengthen local meetups as active, hands-on community hubs that help newcomers learn together, build confidence, and transition into meaningful contributor roles.
- Community, Education, and the Contributor Pipeline — Scale education programs and clarify contribution pathways so new contributors can easily onboard, connect with teams, and grow into ongoing project roles.

- Collaborazione — Un modo più intuitivo di collaborare alla scrittura di contenuti
- Multilingua — Implementazione del Core per siti multilingua
