  Hi there,

  The abbreviation “WP” is not covered by WordPress trademarks and neither should “WPress” be. You should be fine as long as you’re not putting these wordmarks in your domain:

  • WordPress
  • WordCamp
  • BuddyPress
  • Openverse
  • WP-CLI

  Here’s a link that goes into detail on the trademark policy: https://wordpressfoundation.org/trademark-policy/

  I hope this helps!
