Cory Miller Acquires Post Status to Lead Its Next Chapter

Entrepreneur and longtime WordPress advocate Cory Miller has taken ownership of Post Status, a leading media platform focused on the WordPress professional community. Known for its detailed industry insights, member-exclusive content, and active network, Post Status enters a new phase under Miller’s leadership.

A Trusted Voice Gains a New Steward

After eight years at the helm, Krogsgard decided to pass the torch to someone who deeply understands both the spirit of WordPress and the needs of its growing professional community. Enter Cory Miller—best known as the founder of iThemes and a longtime advocate for open-source values and mental health in tech.

  • Expand its member offerings with more targeted content, networking, and collaboration opportunities
  • Strengthen the Post Status Club, which serves professionals with curated resources and community spaces
  • Increase visibility for underrepresented voices in the WordPress space
  • Continue publishing news, insights, and interviews that matter to developers, product owners, and agency teams

Miller has expressed his desire to carry forward Post Status’s community-focused mission while evolving it into a broader platform for education, support, and connection in the WordPress economy.

“I believe deeply in the mission of Post Status—connecting the people who power WordPress and helping them thrive,” said Miller in the official announcement.
