Monday Nov 13th on Zoom, we will explore/discuss how to optimise WordPress sites for speed, for security, site health and maybe other issues as well.
Mainly, this is discussion/sharing group, rather than a single speaker/you listen group. Everyone is invited to share their knowledge, expertise, tips, & tricks. On Zoom, you're welcome to share your screen to show how you achieved something.
For instance, Oliver Campion will demo and explain his (free) plugins: a security scanner plugin, and another that prevents anyone scanning your site for vulnerabilities.
Plus, anyone can ask a question or seek some quick advice. Beginner questions are great, as well as questions from people who know the topic. We hope everyone else learns something, and leaves people thinking "i could do that".
We have a wonderful crowd on Zoom, from across the USA, UK, Ireland, and Europe. Alas, we don't have enough people close to Cambridge to justify actually meeting in town. So the meetup is only on Zoom.
Thanks to Chris Cox of https://www.hihub.info/ for providing Zoom. I'll send out a recording of the meeting afterwards.
This format seems to work.
7pm: Welcome. Depending on numbers, everyone gets to introduce themselves, perhaps 10 seconds each, mainly describing their involvement with WordPress. If we have many attendees, then introductions via the chat.
7:15 pm: Start of sharing & discussion.
8.30pm The meeting kinda starts to wind up, sometimes we chat for longer. Then we decide next month's topic.
Looking forward to seeing and chatting with everyone.
Simon & Chris
