WordPress Meetup April, 2010
Join us for an evening of WordPress. We’d like to explore making this a monthly meetup, so come with ideas of what you’d like to learn about and what you’d like to share with the group at future meetups.
Let’s talk WordPress:
- New features and changes coming in WordPress 3.0.
- What are you working on with WordPress?
- Share your favorite themes and plugins.
Event information:
- Where: Spoke6, 439 N 6th Ave, Tucson, AZ 85705 (located on the SW corner of 6th Ave & 6th St)
- When: Tuesday, April 27th 7–9 PM
- Cost: FREE (though please bring drinks or snack to share)
This is an open event. Everyone is welcome.
UPDATE: Notes from last night’s meeting are below.

Future TDAC WordPress meetups:
- Review WordPress news and happenings (Lance)
- Two or three short presentations (10 minutes each)
- Q & A and networking
Ideas for presentations:
- Ian: Custom Post Types
- Ian: WordPress Performance
- Common tasks and how to solve them: calendars and events, migration of old sites to the latest WordPress version.
- Tim and Lance: Commercialization of WP
- Lance: Child themes
If you’d like to present a topic related to WordPress, drop Lance an email: lance at simpledream dot net.
Pardon me for asking about something that’s already been implemented, but would it be possible to have auto-updates to the latest version of WP? Y’know, the way Firefox and Thunderbird do?
Please see Learn How to Upgrade Your Blog Software. The Codex is your friend, as are the Support Forums.
Dang it, I would have loved to come tonight. Will there be a meeting recap?
Sherif,
Tonight’s just a meetup to get things going, so we won’t have a lot of items to share as far as a recap goes.
I might add a short summary to the post with some links.
is the WP meetup dead? The date above says “When: Tuesday, April 27th 7–9 PM”
Thanks
Al, this post was for a meetup back in April. The latest WordPress meetup was this past Wednesday and the next one will be in mid-January. Check the TDAC event calendar to stay updated.
