    WordCamp Louisville 2016Speaker: Katie Wilkerson

    February 27, 2017 — Do you hate ads? Of course you do – not only are they insanely confusing to implement, they’re junking up your beautiful website! Alas, they’re a necessary evil. Rather than blindly dropping in ad scripts and praying something happens, let’s talk about how we can better understand some fundamental concepts and strategies for ad integration.

    In “Make Ads Great Again,” we’ll develop a better appreciation for how important a correct ad integration is for the success of your WordPress site and how we can actually make them contribute to your site aesthetic.

  • Mitch Canter: WordPress Development with Vagrant, VVV, and VV

    WordCamp Louisville 2016Speaker: Mitch Canter

    February 27, 2017 — The day I discovered Vagrant was the day that I changed the way I worked. I went from fighting with server setups and local development boxes to seamlessly creating sites that fit in with my own workflow. But Vagrant by itself, while good, won’t get you there alone.

    That’s where VVV – a WordPress development environment – comes in. VVV comes pre-equipped with all of the tools, bells, and whistles needed to streamline your development environment.

    Mitch will walk you through the setup of Vagrant, commands and tips to help you get the most out of Vagrant, and other applications (VVV Dashboard and VV) that help you use VVV to its full potential.

  • Joe Ponzio : Understanding the (Lack Of) Limitations of WordPress

    WordCamp Louisville 2016Speaker: Joe Ponzio

    February 25, 2017 — We all know that it’s not “just a blogging platform” anymore, but how do you handle client concerns when those “other” guys are pitching a more expensive “solution” and knocking you for pitching WordPress?
