December 4, 2016 — Har dina framgångar egentligen bara varit tur? Du har varit på rätt plats vid rätt tillfälle och träffat rätt människor? Andra människor tror att du är skicklig och kompetent, men när som helst kommer de att genomskåda dig. Egentligen har du ingen aning om vad du håller på med. Du är en bedragare som inte borde vara här. Känns tankegången igen? Du är inte ensam. Dessa tankar hör ihop med bluffsyndromet och motsvarar sällan verkligheten. Lär dig känna igen bluff-tankarna och vad du kan göra för att motverka dem.

December 3, 2016 — Ett plugin ska fungera utan problem direkt när man aktiverar det! Dokumentation, det är för loosers! Hur svårt ska det vara att få till en major release av ett plugin utan en massa buggar?
Kombinationen av tillgängliga teman, plugins och hostingleverantörer är oändlig vilket gör att kodbas tillsammans med servermiljö nästan aldrig ser likadan ut på två WordPress-webbplatser. Dessa förutsättningar innebär att support på plugins och teman ibland är mer avancerad och tidskrävande än vad man kanske tror vid en första anblick.
Vad kan man som kund göra för att underlätta vid supportärenden och vad kan plugin-utvecklarna förbättra för att minimera problem och antalet rapporterade ärenden?

December 3, 2016 — This is slightly different talk than most of WordCamp talks, but I believe it’s equally important.

With WordPress scene becoming more and more competitive, the stress factor on WordPress professionals is higher than ever. At the same time we need to take care of our families and friends which is equally important. The pressure mounts up and it often leads to emotional and physical problems. I’ve experienced it first hand and after several months of dealing with a burnout I started being very proactive about it.

In this talk I would like to share my experiences related to:
– what leads to burnouts and other problems
– how to deal with it
– how to avoid it
– how to balance work and family life

This is a topic very few people talk about. But a lot of people deal with. Hopefully my talk will help someone.
