Agenda
Short month, short meeting. This month’s meetup features two 30-minute sessions:
Plugin Party
What is your favorite plugin? How do you go about choosing a plugin? With 58,427 of them in the repository, it can be a bit overwhelming to know where to start. This roundtable discussion will focus on the amazing world of WordPress plugins from your perspective. Share wisdom and seek it from others as we tackle the basics of choosing and using plugins. (beginner to intermediate – everyone)
Custom Post Types & Custom Fields
Last month, we had a great show-and-tell by Eric Frisino on a project he’s been working on. Following that ‘deep dive’ format, this month Mark O. will give a behind-the-scenes tour of several large WordPress sites that harness the power of custom post types and custom fields to create specialized functionality. (intermediate to advanced – presented by Mark)
Thanks to Excelsior College for providing a virtual meeting space!
