Stefano Lissa (@satollo) – WordPress user profile

Bio

Senior coder, software analyst, and project manager, I worked with Java, PHP, and lately with Phyton to integrate AI services. Author of the Newsletter plugin for WordPress and co-owner of the Newsletter Plugin Professional Addons service.

WordPress Origin Story

I started to build blogs not less than 20 years ago facing the need for extra features not available in the WordPress ecosystem. The most important three were an efficient cache plugin (Hyper Cache – but now obsolete), an easy way to inject ads (Head and Footer – still installed on more than 100K sites), and a newsletter system fully customizable in my language (Italian) with some automation (the Newsletter plugin). That’s how my happy time with WP started and continues.
