WOW! Just … WOW! It’s been a huge event … and it makes me re-consider my opinions on the Italian desire to be the next host for the next “free spot” available in hosting this WordCamp Europe event.

The Italian WordPress community events’ calendar
Our friend Pascal Casier has realized an entire website gathering events from all over the Italian WordPress community under a single umbrella, complementary ti all other channels made by the community.
Among the many sections present in the website, there’s a page devoted to show off the ‘social’ events of the current month … the URL si Calendario Eventi. Here you can find all the details of the announced meetup, WordCamps and various encounters officially sponsored but the community.
As you can see in the above screenshot when you visit the page you have the full month view, with everything listed in the particular date and, highlighted in yellow, the current day.
In the second part of the screen, instead, you have a map of the official communities over Italy, followed by an alphabetically sorted list of the groups [clicking on a city’s name you are redirected to the relative Meetup group page].
Here you have also infos about the current number of the “meetup group subscribers” and, when present – as in the Bari’s case below – the formal link to the announced event.
I think his initiative is excellent and commendable, and I invite those who have suggestions to contact him on the WordPress’ international or Italian Slack channels.
Also, if you’re into WordPress and are coming to Italy maybe you can plan to say Hi to a local group, and possibly share some of your knowledge and experiences with us. You will be welcomed for sure!

My twelfth year on WordPress.com
After the removal of JetPack’s annual stats infographic, another victim of the new Automattic approach to handling the SAS business of WordPress.com is the deletion of any special email or web-notification of the ‘anniversary’ of subscription to their service.
This year I had to lauch the iOS WordPress app to see the display of my twelfth badge, obtained the last January 4th…
I think this is quite a goal … both for me as a die-hard user, and for them for keeping up one of the few platforms I have difficulties remembering being down or defeaced.
So happy anniversary to us!
Why you should attend WordCamp Milano
This year in Milan (Italy) there will be the second WordCamp Milano. The video above is a quick recap of the last year’s edition. I was unable to attend in 2016, but this year – from November 18th to 19th I’ll try my best to be part of the community event.

How-To disable AMP on your WordPress.com website
I have grown an aversion to Google AMP. Playing with the new template I saw that when it was made available here on the WordPress.com platform I’ve enabled it.
Since I manage my blog/website in the ‘old school’ way I could not find anywhere over the Dashboard a setting to disable it. A quick search on the official support forum gave me the answer, simply point your browser to:
https:// wordpress.com/settings/traffic/ $YOURSITE.wordpress.com…and you’ll be propted with the new WordPress.com interface (still under development) and the option to enable/disable this AMP technology…
