Eventually Went Back To Sleep A WordCamp US Update
So today is the first full day of WordCamp US 2023. It’s been so much fun catching up with so many people. So much so that I’ll probably have to watch many of the sessions on WordPress.TV later. So in the last post I wrote that it was 3 am this morning and I couldn’t…

WordCamp US And The Excitement
It’s pretty much 3am here in DC. I crashed at 8:30pm/9pm last night and got a solid 3 1/2 hrs of sleep before the old blatter got me up. Then I tossed and turned until 2:40am and now I’m up. I think it’s the excitement of the conference that’s got me all jazzed and energized.…

This year’s WordCamp US Contributor day was backed. There were easily hundreds of people wanting to give back to WordPress in some way. That’s really neat to see. I made my way to the Photo Team table and got to meet Michelle Frechette in person for the first time!!!! We know each other from WordFest…

WordCamp US 2023 Is Less Than A Week Away!!
I’m so excited for WordCamp US this year. It’s at the National Harbor right outside of DC. I haven’t seen many people in the WordPress community since 2019, so this will be great. I think the last round of tickets are still available https://us.wordcamp.org/2023/tickets/ and it will be livestreamed for those who can’t make it.…

WordCamp US 2023 Here I Come!

The last one I went to was the second-ever WordCamp US which was at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia. It was there in 2015 as well…

WordFest 2021 Part Deux
To this moment in time, I still can’t believe the team over at Big Orange Heart did the second Wordfest in 6 months. The first one was in January and was excellent. The other one was on Friday (July 23rd) and was even better. I was glad that Goldstein Media was able to be a…

WordFest Live is a 24 hour WordPress virtual conference to help promote the open-source operating system and mental health in the…

Always Backup Your Site
I came into work, with an idea. I wanted to add a sidebar to this blog. I love the Twenty Twenty theme, that I’m using, but a blog needs a sidebar. Without a clear way to just add it, I turned to the Goog. There I found a plugin that would work with Twenty Seventeen.…

So Many Ways To Skin The WordPress Cat
I’ve been using WordPress as my exclusive content management system for years now. I honestly don’t even remember how long it’s been. With all this time in the ecosystem, I’ve noticed something that I’m not sure I like or dislike. With WordPress the ecosystem is so robust with innovation that there’s a page builder for…
