Mission

The image directory aims to provide an open alternative to closed image banks, such as Unsplash, Pixbaby, and Adobe Stock, whose licensing terms have become restrictive in recent years. Use in WordPress themes, for example, is restricted.[3][7][8]

WordPress Photo Directory has 2,388 images as of April 2022.[5]

History

On December 14, 2021, Matt Mullenweg announced the WordPress Photo Directory at State of the Word 2021 event.[9][10][11][12] In January 2022, the project began to gather volunteers[13][14] and already in February its own developer website was launched.[15][14] Then team representatives were selected.[16][17][14]
