  • Workshop: How to use AI agents to click, configure and care for Your WordPress site

    WordCamp Malaysia 2025Speaker: Nathan Onn

    January 2, 2026 — Every WordPress freelancer knows the drill:
    – Same updates every week.
    – Same SEO checks.
    – Same performance tweaks.
    – Same WooCommerce settings across different clients.
    What if you could hand these repetitive tasks to an AI that actually clicks through wp-admin for you?
    Meet computer-use agents—AI assistants that can see your screen, navigate WordPress, and execute your exact workflows.
    Think of them as tireless junior developers who follow your playbook perfectly, create backups before touching anything, and document every single change.
    During this talk, you’ll witness the magic firsthand:
    – Watch an AI build a WooCommerce store from zero to checkout-ready
    – See it handle plugin updates, detect conflicts, and automatically roll back when needed
    – Observe as it perform SEO audits and implement fixes across your entire site
    – Learn how simple prompts become powerful automation workflows
    The breakthrough?
    You don’t need technical skills.
    These agents work from plain English checklists—the same ones you probably already use.
    I’ll show you how to transform your WordPress routines into automated playbooks with built-in safety nets.
    Whether you’re a solo freelancer juggling ten client sites or an agency owner trying to standardize operations, this session will revolutionize how you think about WordPress management.
    You’ll leave with ready-to-use automation templates, a safety-first workflow that protects production sites, and the confidence to delegate 80% of your repetitive tasks to AI.
    Your weekends are about to get a lot more free.

  • Build Your First WordPress Plugin with The Power of AI (Even if You Can’t Code!)

    WordCamp Johor Bahru 2025Speaker: Nathan Onn

    July 31, 2025 — Building WordPress plugins doesn’t have to feel like decoding alien technology.

    Most WordPress users shy away from plugin development because, let’s be honest, coding can look scary. But guess what? With AI, creating plugins becomes as easy as ordering pizza online—and just as satisfying.

    Think about how traditional plugin building goes: hours spent staring at screens, tons of confusing code, and endless “Oops, I broke it again” moments. Now picture having your own AI sidekick (minus the superhero costume, sadly) that guides you from brainstorming cool plugin features to writing crystal-clear technical plans and even helps you code step-by-step. Tools like ChatGPT o1 and Claude 3.7 turn your big ideas into simple, achievable tasks, while Cursor AI jumps right in to handle the tough coding parts. Say goodbye to frustration and hello to fun, because AI tools take care of the complex stuff, letting you proudly launch your first plugin faster than you can say, “Wow, I actually did it!”

    In this *hopefully fun* session, you’ll see exactly how AI makes plugin-building beginner-friendly. I’ll share easy steps, tips to dodge rookie mistakes, and insights that’ll make you feel smarter than your coding friends (or at least let you pretend). You’ll leave knowing this one simple truth: AI makes building WordPress plugins doable, enjoyable, and totally achievable.

    Ready to amaze yourself? Let’s do this—powered by AI.
