WordPressorg

WordPressorg is not an official term; there is no separate project by that exact spelling. In practice, people referring to WordPressorg are typically indicating WordPress.org, the official site and repository of the WordPress project.

WordPress.org hosts the open-source WordPress software, documentation, development resources, and community support. It provides access to the downloadable WordPress software, as well as the plugin and theme directories, translation efforts, and extensive documentation for users, developers, and site administrators. The site serves as the primary hub for collaboration and contribution to the WordPress ecosystem.

The site is associated with the WordPress Foundation, a nonprofit organization that helps steward the WordPress project, manages trademarks, and supports community initiatives to ensure the project’s long-term sustainability. The WordPress project emphasizes open-source collaboration and relies on volunteers and contributors from around the world.

WordPress software, released under the GNU General Public License (GPLv2 or later), is designed for self-hosted sites. Users download the software from WordPress.org, install it on a web server, and extend it via plugins and themes. The project’s governance and development processes encourage community input, code reviews, and transparent decision-making through core development channels and repositories.

WordPress.org is distinct from WordPress.com, a commercial hosting service run by Automattic that provides an integrated blogging platform with different features and constraints. The distinction is commonly explained in guides and documentation accessible on WordPress.org, which remains the primary reference for anyone seeking accurate, up-to-date information about WordPress.
