The time and attention to the native app getting built and making sure the coding is correct and an easier route to just have a bolt on without the hassle of coding.

Not everyone who uses WordPress is a developer – the truth is that most users just want to be able to update their website quickly and easily. As designers and developers, we need to focus not just on the user experience for visitors to the website, but also for the administrators, editors and contributors who need to maintain content and interact with the back end on a regular basis. Improving the back end user experience doesn’t need to be complicated and doesn’t necessarily require developer skills – but once it’s done it will make that website so much more valuable for the site owner. I will use two examples of sites that have been optimized for end-user editing experience to demonstrate how designers, developers and administrators can help their users make better use of their website.

As a blogger, one of the things that always brings on my procrastination is the lack of things to talk about.
In my talk, I will show less than five tricks I’ve learned to always keep the posts coming, so that you’ll rarely run out of things to write/post about.

Will cover:
– different types of content marketing that can be executed through WordPress (SEO articles, landing pages, lead magnets, opt-in pages, etc.)
– best WordPress practices to help you juggle all these content stuff (adding plugins like Yoast, social media sharing plugin, etc.)
– quick SEO content tips

You can generate more leads through a good landing page. Whether you are a marketer or a blogger, using landing pages is a must in this digital era. What are the elements of a good landing page? How do I test my landing pages? Which is the right plugin to use?

Create jaw-dropping designs and amazing templates you can share with the world and even start your own e-commerce business, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!

I will be showcasing a website I designed from scratch ‘www.quickpro.site’, and I’ll show you how i was able to turn this simple website into a masterpiece using WordPress, Elementor and most importantly, ‘POSTS’.

I feel obligated to share how WordPress has contributed in making me live a fulfilling life. I’m not much of a sharer as I don’t want to appear bragging. My aim to inspire people and to show them how to be empowered by a piece of open source software. It is my hope that with the flexibility and freedom working online provides, we would start to think about the essential things in life instead of a never-ending consumerism and FOMO moments.

The talk will be composed of the following:
– Brief intro of how I got into WordPress
– The kind of mindset needed – what and how to learn
– How to get started with this gig
– Where to look for opportunities
– What services you will offer and how much to charge
– What tools you will need to stay organized

I’ve seen and discussed a lot since my Brisbane WordCamp talk, around WordPress to static site benefits and workflows.

Rather than promote my tool, I want to promote the general concept of publishing a static copy of your WordPress site using various tools.

I’ll better cover some of the “how” and reinforce the “why”.

Super excited to speak at my second-home of Cebu!

The title may sound too controversial, more, not favouring WordPress and all, but rest assured, my talk will not be biased nor inclined or in any way try to promote to participants. The topic’s purpose to give the participants a general idea about the latest trend of the web especially on creating websites, blog sites and all there is to JAMstack | JavaScript, APIs, and Markup as modern web development architecture based on client-side JavaScript, reusable APIs, and prebuilt Markup. Cutting the chase, although there’s a strong uptrend, in 2019 there are still things that aren’t possible yet to move on from WP. I will highlight the pros and cons and in the end, give the user a feel and let them decide whatever’s best for them. Thanks

Good software engineers can be found anywhere, and embracing remote working enables you to tap into that global pool. But just because you *can*… does that mean you *should*? In this talk I’ll go through some dos and don’ts, talk about some pitfalls, and hopefully guide you towards doing remote the right way. I’ll include some stories that draw on my experience working in technical recruitment for clients who have been on both sides of the do/don’t scale, as well as Automattic’s decade-plus experience as a fully-distributed company.

Length: 10-15 min
Structure:
– Hello (who I am)
– What remote is (flexible working)
– What remote isn’t (easy or simple)
– Do
— Treat everyone as remote
— Default to async
— Document all the things
— Build a culture
— Get together in person
– Don’t
— Just pick up the phone (unless…) (you then document it for everyone else)

– Conclusion

Composer is a dependency manager for PHP that has been widely adopted by the PHP community at large, but is used less frequently with WordPress. WordPress is largely procedural in nature, and Composer has great tools for object oriented code, like autoloading. That’s nice to have but Composer is primarily a dependency manager which not widely adopted by WordPress developers, I will demonstrate the basics needed to manage a WordPress site, its theme and plugins using Composer so when working with a team, you can easily share your setup and easily replicate with across your organization in the dev level up to the production.
