6. Notices

6.1 Too many editor are installed.

Currently on wikimedia.it wordpress website are intalled and used the following editors:

• Default "Gutenberg" default wordpress editor
• BE Editor
• Elementor

Those editors are not fully compatible and interoperable. That means that, choosing a wrong editor, there is a high risk to broke contents and to create not uniform contents.

6.2 Fragmented template elements and styles

Due to wordpress architecture and stratification of manutentive ad evolutive actions, currently styles are spread in:

• WMI wordpress theme
• Inline wordpress styles
• Editors configurations (Elementor, BE)
• Plugins configurations (Smart Slider)

This configuration makes hard to maintain end act on global styles, keeping a global aesthetic identity

6.3 The Plugin "Wiki Embed" - https://it.wordpress.org/plugins/wiki-embed/ - is old and no longer mantenined (9 years from the last update)
