Invisible CMS is all about leveraging the power of WordPress without marketing WordPress.

June 18, 2020 — Miriam says that when she started with WordPress, it was a shiny, exciting product with endless functionality. But, as the years wore on, WordPress started to lose its lustre. The future of WordPress overall was in question.
She believes we are now seeing the beginning of a WordPress renaissance. JavaScript, headless, and JAMstack are making developers excited once again. This is a very promising shift for our community since products can live or die by the enthusiasm (or lack thereof) of developers. In this talk, Miriam will discuss what this evolution means for WordPress the platform, and the steps we can take to support and encourage this momentum, and ensure the future of our favorite CMS for many years to come.

You’ll learn about the future of content management, and why migrating to “Invisible” CMS is critical to your success.

The focus will be on re-imagining what you as a developer/integrator/agency are doing, integrating 3rd party technologies, and selling a solution.

June 6, 2019 — In my role as a UX consultant, I’m acutely aware of the impact the CMS will have on admin users.

Most CMS users just don’t see content in the way that UXers, designers or developers do. We, as digital types, understand that a page isn’t necessarily a page but is instead made up of 5 different content types. We can mentally map the content from the information architecture, to the design and then to the set of fields and posts in the CMS. Clients really struggle with this concept.

I’ll discuss some ways in which we can ensure our WordPress setup and UI makes our users feel empowered and enabled to create great content regularly.

Πιο συγκεκριμένα, θα μας αναλύσει γιατί το WP REST api είναι πολύ σημαντικό και πως μπορούμε να το εκμεταλλευτούμε και γιατί το WordPress σαν μέρος μιας υπηρεσίας αποτελεί σημαντική προσθήκη. Θα μας μιλήσει ακόμη για τα μειονεκτήματα και τα πλεονεκτήματα της χρήσης του WordPress για την ανάπτυξη υπηρεσιών, αναφέροντάς μας ακόμη μερικά no label παραδείγματα χρήσης του WordPress σε μη συνηθισμένες εργασίες.

His presentation aims to highlight the dynamics of WordPress for fast, easy prototyping of new services as well as coexistence with other systems in unusual conditions. More specifically, he will analyze why WP REST api is very important and how we can take advantage of it and why WordPress as part of a service is an important addition. He will also talk to us about the disadvantages and benefits of using WordPress to develop services, even mentioning some non-label examples of using WordPress in unusual tasks.

January 4, 2019 — Content management systems (CMSs) arose in the early 2000s, revolutionising website design. The old-fashioned style, stale content and low compatibility with mobile devices have driven website creation into the future. Modern, interactive, consistent multi-device and multi-channel experiences are now necessities. To power these online experiences, large, enterprise-level companies once were limited to a single, proprietary CMS. Today, many organisations are starting to realise that there can be tangible benefits to having multiple, strategic CMSs, including faster time to market, ease of use, agility and the ability to experiment and customise quickly.

Join Jon Bird, head of Enterprise Sales and Strategic partnerships for WP Engine, and Jim Bowes, CEO of Manifesto, as they dive into the recently commissioned research, which surveyed 300 enterprise-level IT and marketing decision-makers in the U.S. and U.K. and look at what this means in practice for agencies using WordPress.

December 21, 2018 — This talk will go into detail about when, why and how to use WordPress as a decoupled CMS backend with a React / Node frontend.

October 12, 2018 — WordPress allows users to manage their content through the WordPress admin screens. This means users can add, edit and delete content and media and manage their sites without the need to ask developers for every change. WordPress is a content management system, but all too often it can end up becoming a content mismanagement system when editing and managing the site is just too difficult, This talk goes through some of the ways in which we build sites so they are easy to content manage, whilst allowing clients to edit pretty much all of their site. It will cover the different methods we use to make content management easy and some of the problems that we see with sites we have been asked to improve. Hopefully by the end of this talk attendees will come away with some practical examples on how to make content management with WordPress easier and quicker for users.
