Ce n’est pas juste une extension. Cela symbolise l’espoir et l’enthousiasme de toute
une génération résumés en deux mots chantés par le célèbre Louis Armstrong : Hello,
Dolly. Une fois l’extension activée, vous verrez s’afficher des paroles aléatoires
de Hello, Dolly en haut à droite de chaque page de votre administration.

Merci à Sanjib Ahmad pour les illustrations.

It’s pointless and a nuisance; I wish it would just disappear already…I'm Japanese,
but when I saw this, I wasn't sure at first if it was okay to delete it. It shouldn't
be included by default.(I’m using an automatic translator, so I apologize if the
meaning comes across differently.)

### 󠀁[A Classic Piece of WordPress History](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-classic-piece-of-wordpress-history/)󠁿

Hello Dolly might be simple, but it’s iconic. Every time I open my WordPress dashboard
and see a lyric from Louis Armstrong’s “Hello, Dolly!” it’s a small reminder of 
WordPress’s roots — creativity, simplicity, and a touch of joy. It doesn’t do much,
and that’s the beauty of it. It’s a little piece of nostalgia that connects every
WordPress user to the spirit of open-source community and fun. Thanks for keeping
this classic alive!

I like it! Thanks, Matt

### 󠀁[Nice Biolerplate code plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/nice-biolerplate-code-plugin/)󠁿

 [dimkiriakos](https://profiles.wordpress.org/dimkiriakos/) 18 août 2024

Even many people give a lot of hate to this plugin, they should not! This plugin
is not something that it's useful your site operations, but it's a nice boilerplate
for people that they want to start building plugins for WordPress. It shows that
you don't need to write so much code to customize something in your WordPress app.
It introduces the wptexturize function the get_user_locale, the admin_notices action
hook and the admin_head action hook too. Yes it's not the mode elegant thing that
comes. But it can be educational for beginners
