We pushed a small update to our name this week.

After nearly 30 years in business, e-dimensionz® and EDZ® are now officially registered trademarks! With the same company, same team, same developers you’ve always worked with.

(And yes, we’ve been adding ® to everything. Alt+0174 has never worked this hard). 😉

Thanks to everyone who trusted us with their projects long before the name came with a ®!

Black Friday is on Nov 27, and the WORST time to find out a discount code doesn't work is when a customer tries to use it.. 😅 Most people won't email you about it. They'll just close the tab.

If you run an online store, it's worth spending an hour this week going through it like a customer would and get your updates done now, then leave things alone until after Cyber Monday so you don't accidentally break anything.

And write down who to call if something breaks that weekend, so you have someone on call for urgent issues. Last thing you need is the site down for hours that weekend.

Or, let us help! We're a bit picky about testing, so we'll try your store on phones and laptops, as new and returning customers, and send you anything that needs fixing (or fix it for you) before the Black Friday rush.

there are 10 kinds of people... those who get six seven, and those who don't. 😉

If you manage or have a Joomla 5 site, you've probably seen this notice in the admin.

5.x went security only on October 13th. Bug fixes are done, but security patches keep coming until October 2027, so no need to rush an upgrade.

That said, a year goes by fast. Extensions are typically what holds up a J5 > J6 move, so that's where we'd start. Go through what each site is running, see which ones have a Joomla 6 version out, and flag the ones that don't.

Got a custom extension or site you're not sure about? We're happy to take a look - https://wyldcode.com/contact

PHP 8.2 goes EOL on Dec 31. No more security fixes after that.

If you look after WordPress or Joomla sites, worth checking what PHP version your hosts are running. In WP it’s under Site Health > Info > Server. And in Joomla it’s System Information.

Before December, go through your plugins and extensions (anything that hasn't been updated since 2023 is a red flag), run custom code through a PHP compatibility checker, test on staging, then flip production in early December.

We'd go straight to 8.4, it's supported until the end of 2028. Joomla 6 needs 8.3 or higher anyway, so 8.2 is a dead end there regardless.

The AODA deadline is December 31, 2026.

If you're an Ontario business or non-profit with 20+ employees, you're required to file an Accessibility Compliance Report. Miss it, and you can face enforcement (not optional).

At 50+ employees, your public website and web content need to meet WCAG 2.0 Level AA as well.

A few important notes-

1) A website compliant a few years ago may not be today. New plugins, template changes & updated functionality could introduce new accessibility issues.

2) Automated scans are nice, but they don't catch everything. Keyboard behaviour and form validation should be manual tested.

3) A compliant homepage isn't enough by itself. Contact forms, checkout flows, account areas and 3rd party plugins / apps can also cause issues.

We help outline what's involved and a sensible starting point for organizations preparing to file:

AI can write code in seconds, true. But the bill for fixing it ends up being more expensive than it's worth.

There's a reason the cheapest quote is usually the most expensive one. When code gets generated fast and shipped without anyone really understanding it, the problems don't disappear. For example, a routine plugin update could break the site, and by then, untangling it costs far more than building it properly would have.

We've been building and maintaining websites since 1997. The code we hand our clients is scalable, and written and reviewed by real people - the same people you talk to every step of the process.

Two things everyone should know before relying on AI-generated code:
- Veracode tested 100+ AI models and found 45% of the code they generated contained security flaws.
- GitClear's analysis of 211 million lines of code found "churn" (code rewritten or thrown out within two weeks) has roughly DOUBLED since AI coding tools went mainstream.

Yeah... we'd rather do it right the first time. 😅

Attackers have been actively scanning WordPress and Joomla sites since July, no joke.

There's a confirmed, ongoing global campaign with named CVEs, public exploit tooling, and businesses already hit.

Two separate things happened last month worth knowing about:

1) On July 9, the Australian Cyber Security Centre flagged a large scale exploitation campaign targeting CMS platforms worldwide. Joomla's JCE plugin alone has 2.5 million sites in scope and has been on CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities list since June!

2) Then on July 17, wp2shell dropped - a critical WordPress core vulnerability requiring no plugins, no login, no user interaction. WordPress forced automatic updates, which they almost never do.

If you're running either platform, there are specific things to check that we outlined to help:

Your SaaS bill is going up at renewal, but your seat count probably isn't.

Per-seat pricing was always a proxy for value, and AI agents just broke that proxy completely. They don't log in nor occupy seats, but they /are/ doing the work.

GitHub Copilot dropped flat-rate billing entirely on June 1. Zendesk, Intercom, Salesforce all made moves too. The whole industry is shifting, and fast.

We broke down what's replacing it and what to check before your next renewal:
