id=\"h-gutenberg-phase-3-collaboration-features-and-progress\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Gutenberg_Phase_3_Collaboration_Features_and_Progress\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gutenberg Phase 3: Collaboration Features and Progress<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Gutenberg Project started way back in late 2018 with its introduction in WordPress 5.0. It aimed to revolutionize how users create and manage content on their websites. Naturally, the aim was to make it as flexible as it is effortless. Essentially, this was when WordPress first introduced the block-based approach.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over the years, the project evolved, and now it&#8217;s in its third phase, focused on collaboration. While with the latest release (v.6.7) this feature was implemented in full, there is a long way to go before we can say for certain that phase 3 has been completed. Yet, with the current rates, by the end of 2025 (or even earlier), phase 3, which started in 2021, WordPress will finally bring to an end this phase&#8217;s efforts.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The main focus in this third phase has been on transforming WordPress from a single-user platform into a dynamic team environment. Naturally, this would significantly boost websites that rely on multiple actors to work simultaneously on a single project. This aims to migrate the entire workflow from team-friendly tools like Google Docs to WordPress itself.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After Phase 3 is successfully implemented, the Gutenberg editor will allow both real-time and asynchronous collaboration. So, by the end of 2025, project managers will be able to discuss assignments, tag collaborators, and suggest edits. This is a goldmine for the workflow, as it will eliminate third-party platforms and enhance the overall user experience.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-native-multilingual-support-in-wordpress\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Native_Multilingual_Support_in_WordPress\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Native Multilingual Support in WordPress<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While developers are finalizing Phase 3 of the Gutenberg project in 2025, WordPress is set to take the first steps toward implementing Phase 4. During this phase, WordPress will focus on integrating multilingual support directly into the Gutenberg editor&#8217;s core. Naturally, this will make creating and managing multilingual websites effortless, without the added weight of third-party plugins. So, with this change, WordPress will improve not only the user experience but also the speed and security of its websites.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you have <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/w3techs.com\/technologies\/overview\/content_management\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">over<\/span> 50<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> percent of the global website-building market<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, it&#8217;s a no-brainer to provide your users with simple, effective multilingual support. What&#8217;s astonishing is not that WordPress is finally doing it but that it took them so long to start the process. Frankly, it should have been on their list 4-5 years ago.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The main idea behind Phase 4 is to allow users to access the same content in multiple languages. So, website owners won&#8217;t have to create multiple versions of their content in different languages or pay for translators. Instead, the Gutenberg editor will do it automatically. Users will simply choose their preferred language from a dropdown menu. Website owners can even set a specific language as the default based on the user&#8217;s geographical location.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Currently, this feature is available on WordPress only through a third-party plugin. However, not all plugins cover all languages, so some website owners are forced to install multiple tools that essentially do the same job.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2025, this will change. At least it will start to change, with WordPress centralizing the efforts within its core. Naturally, this will happen step by step, but we can&#8217;t wait to see the first version of this feature next year.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-full-site-editing-reaches-new-levels-of-adoption\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Full_Site_Editing_Reaches_New_Levels_of_Adoption\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Full Site Editing Reaches New Levels of Adoption<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WordPress has been at the forefront of usability in website development for the better part of a decade now. So, in 2025, we expect the CMS king to reach new heights in their user-friendly interface. Naturally, it wouldn&#8217;t be a surprise if WP&#8217;s Full Site Editing (FSE) finally reaches its maturity.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FSE is behind the seamless front-end customization of the website. It allows users to edit all parts of their website without needing any code. Thanks to the block-based approach, anyone can create a visually stunning website. For live events and hybrid conferences, many brands pair their WordPress event pages with professional on-site support from <a href=\"https:\/\/audiovisualnation.com\/\">Audio Visual Nation AV crews<\/a> to ensure flawless staging, sound, and broadcasts that match the site\u2019s polish. This is the trademark of WordPress. So, it&#8217;s safe to say they won&#8217;t leave it behind as they enhance the user experience in their next versions.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"826\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostarmada.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Editor.jpg\" alt=\"The Dashboard as part of WordPress 2025 trends\" class=\"wp-image-4932\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hostarmada.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Editor.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.hostarmada.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Editor-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hostarmada.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Editor-1110x716.jpg 1110w, https:\/\/www.hostarmada.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Editor-768x496.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.hostarmada.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Editor-24x15.jpg 24w, https:\/\/www.hostarmada.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Editor-36x23.jpg 36w, https:\/\/www.hostarmada.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Editor-48x31.jpg 48w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The evolution of FSE has led to the development of block themes. They are specifically designed to leverage the full capabilities of the Site Editor. These themes provide pre-designed block patterns and templates. They allow users to build and customize their sites without ever stumbling upon a problem.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We can already see the first glimpse of the Twenty Twenty-Five theme, which is fully compatible with the Site Editor and utilizes new design tools such as the Grid block and Pattern\/Section Styles.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We expect to see this in many of the new 2025 WordPress-built websites. Naturally, this will focus on refining the user experience and expanding the library of block patterns. Unfortunately, WP designers will have to get used to this new block theme reality, as we suspect it will become the norm in late 2025 and will continue to evolve in 2026.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, reaching maturity, FSE will signify a crucial change in the WordPress ecosystem &#8211; one that will drag third-party plugin developers into the new age where flexibility and user empowerment will be a top priority.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-the-rise-of-headless-wordpress\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Rise_of_Headless_WordPress\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Rise of Headless WordPress<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While there is no doubt that WordPress is the CMS king, if they want to retain the crown, it&#8217;s time to take some action on that front as well. Sure, they currently own<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-market-share\/#gref\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">62.2%<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of the market, but that&#8217;s their lowest level in the past 4 years. Their share has been shrinking for the past two years, with a rapid decline of roughly 1% per year.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, in 2025, they will finally take some drastic measures to retain and even broaden their positions in the CMS market. Headless WordPress is the perfect solution to the growing problem.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Headless architecture decouples the front-end presentation layer from the back-end content management system. This allows developers to utilize modern JavaScript frameworks. For example, they can use front-end frameworks like React, Vue.js, or Angular while managing content in WordPress.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The trend has been gaining traction over the past few months, and we suspect it will finally enter mainstream web development as early as 2025. This way, WordPress will allow designers to implement their vision without the editor&#8217;s limitations and without worrying about the back end. Ultimately, this will bring greater flexibility and more unique websites without sacrificing the client&#8217;s comfort in using the well-known WordPress dashboard and interface.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2025 will bring more robust tools and APIs designed to simplify headless WordPress integration. This will improve experiences across various platforms, including mobile apps, IoT devices, and augmented reality platforms.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-woocommerce-and-ecommerce-growth\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"WooCommerce_and_eCommerce_Growth\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WooCommerce and eCommerce Growth<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WordPress has always been a beacon for e-commerce websites. Currently, WooCommerce is the second most popular WordPress plugin (after Yoast), powering <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\/tutorials\/wordpress-statistics\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4.6 million<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> online stores worldwide. This equals<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\/tutorials\/wordpress-statistics\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">9.1%<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of all eCommerce websites or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\/tutorials\/wordpress-statistics\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">38.74%<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of the entire eCommerce platform market. This makes it the biggest eCommerce platform on the internet, and as such, WordPress will undoubtedly focus on this aspect of the business.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are some rumors that WordPress is working on a seamless payment gateway, including one-click payments and cryptocurrency acceptance. However, it&#8217;s more likely that these features will be implemented into WooCommerce rather than the WordPress core.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One thing that is for sure, though. WP will make efforts to retain and expand its market share across e-commerce platforms, and the headless WP will bring it a long way. However, the most significant boost is expected to come from implementing AI into WordPress&#8217;s features.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-infusing-ai-further-into-wordpress-functionalities\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Infusing_AI_Further_Into_WordPress_Functionalities\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Infusing AI Further Into WordPress Functionalities<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Artificial Intelligence (AI) will continue to rise in the following years. Naturally, WordPress will not let this marvelous innovation go to waste. In fact, in 2025, we expect Artificial Intelligence to take a more central role in the website builder and CMS platform. This will not only enhance the website-building process but also streamline management and elevate the user experience.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2025, we expect AI to bring a more personalized user experience to their websites. Easier content personalization will lead to improved engagement, user satisfaction, and results. So, it won&#8217;t be a surprise if WP starts recommending content based on individual preferences rather than on segmented groups.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moreover, with plugins like YOAST SEO already leveraging AI for SEO, we expect WordPress to follow suit, assisting editors in reaching their SEO goals as they create their content.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2023, Matt Mullenweg, the co-founder of WordPress, spoke about the inevitable integration of AI into WP. However, he was adamant that this would happen only when the AI was mature enough.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Well, in the past year, we&#8217;ve seen a significant surge in AI use, so it&#8217;s safe to say that AI will start finding its place in WordPress&#8217;s core as early as 2025. If we had to guess the first place artificial intelligence would be implemented, we&#8217;d bet on security.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-increased-focus-on-cybersecurity\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Increased_focus_on_Cybersecurity\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Increased focus on Cybersecurity<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WordPress will double down on cybersecurity next year, always eager to keep one step ahead of all malicious actors. Recognizing the increasing sophistication of cyberattacks, WordPress will address its users&#8217; ever-growing concerns.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Indeed, AI will play a central role in WordPress&#8217;s security strategy. By using AI-driven tools, WordPress can proactively detect and neutralize potential threats in real time. These systems analyze patterns, identify anomalies, and respond to suspicious activities instantly. This will create a robust shield against malware and brute-force attacks.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostarmada.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Cybersecurity.jpg\" alt=\"cybersecurity and website protection illustration\" class=\"wp-image-4930\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hostarmada.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Cybersecurity.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.hostarmada.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Cybersecurity-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hostarmada.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Cybersecurity-1110x740.jpg 1110w, https:\/\/www.hostarmada.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Cybersecurity-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.hostarmada.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Cybersecurity-24x16.jpg 24w, https:\/\/www.hostarmada.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Cybersecurity-36x24.jpg 36w, https:\/\/www.hostarmada.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Cybersecurity-48x32.jpg 48w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moreover, WordPress is expected to align closely with the principles of Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA), a gold standard for modern security frameworks. As we already discussed in our previous blog post, ZTA will be the norm in the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostarmada.com\/blog\/the-top-game-changing-web-hosting-trends-for-2025\/#Zero_Trust_Architecture_For_Outstanding_Security\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">web hosting industry in 2025<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Naturally, WordPress will likely integrate these practices deeply into its core.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Last but not least, blockchain technology is emerging as a promising tool for enhancing cybersecurity. It offers a decentralized solution for secure data storage and transactions. While adoption across web platforms is still in its early stages, there is a strong possibility that WordPress will explore blockchain integration as an added security layer.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-performance-and-speed-improvements\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Performance_and_Speed_Improvements\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Performance and Speed Improvements<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Website speed is always front and center for builders and CMS platforms.

Thus, with Google considering page speed a core ranking factor, WordPress will definitely be on top of its game in the next 12 months.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Naturally, WordPress will likely implement a new built-in caching solution to reduce the server response time and focus on next-gen image formatting.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One thing is for sure: WordPress will aim to deliver the best possible speed to its users.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Still, WordPress can only do so much to improve high-speed website loading times. What you need is a lightning-fast, secure, and reliable cloud hosting provider to ensure your website appears on your customers&#8217; screens in the blink of an eye every time.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hostarmada.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HostArmada<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is just that.

The release focused on refining the block-first experience, improving site customization, enhancing performance, and streamlining content management workflows. Site owners gained greater control over layouts, templates, and design elements without relying heavily on third-party page builders. Developers also benefited from improved APIs and modern development tools, making it easier to build scalable and highly customized websites. Overall, WordPress 7.0 strengthened the platform&#8217;s reputation as a flexible solution for everyone from small businesses to enterprise organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Block Themes and Full Site Editing Adoption in 2026<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As WordPress moves through 2026, block themes continue to become the standard approach for website design. Their seamless integration with Full Site Editing allows users to customize nearly every aspect of their websites without touching code. Businesses benefit from faster website development, while designers gain access to more flexible design systems and reusable patterns. The growing ecosystem of block-based themes and plugins demonstrates that WordPress is fully committed to its block-first future, making Full Site Editing a central part of the platform&#8217;s long-term strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Key_Takeaways_for_WordPress_Users_Going_Forward\"><\/span>Key Takeaways for WordPress Users Going Forward<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The future of WordPress is centered on flexibility, automation, performance, and user empowerment. Full Site Editing continues to reshape website creation, AI is becoming an increasingly valuable productivity tool, and modern development approaches such as headless WordPress are expanding what the platform can achieve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the same time, ongoing investments in security, multilingual support, and performance optimization ensure that WordPress remains competitive in a rapidly changing digital landscape. For website owners, developers, and businesses alike, staying aligned with these trends will be essential for building faster, more scalable, and more engaging online experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-faqs\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs\"><\/span>FAQs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1782312843630\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Is WordPress still the most popular CMS in 2025?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes.
