March 18, 2019 — We live in a world of continuous integration, continuous delivery, version controlled code and configuration. Yet when it comes to delivering content we are relying on doing all publishing straight to the production environment and hoping it works, editing the live document to fix issues we only find once they are in production. I propose there is a better way.

Let’s build our content on our development instances the same way we develop code and configuration. Then using the power of Github, WP-CLI and Automated Testing tools like Behat, lets professionally deploy our content to production will full confidence it works as intended. Let’s give editors better tools to build better content in a word of Gutenberg while saving anyone the need to overwrite the production database ever again.

March 8, 2019 — When’s the last time you’ve met a developer that wasn’t busy? We as developers are constantly pressed for time and are always looking for tools to make our jobs easier.

WP-CLI can be one of the most powerful tools in a developers tool belt if used correctly. This tool can be used to automate the simplest or most complex tasks with ease. All from the comfort of your command line.

In this session, I’ll show you a few specific examples where WP-CLI can save you tons of time by performing tedious, or repetitive tasks, and getting you back to the things you want to be doing.

March 31, 2017 — For the first years I worked as a freelance WordPress developer, I overwrote or erased my fair share of client sites using the the ol’ FTP drag-and-drop. So, yea, I feel your pain.

But at some point a couple years ago I reached a boiling point and set out to find a more reliable, efficient, and consistent deployment workflow. I’ve since found something that works really well for me and in talking to my WP community, I’ve found there’s a strong interest in learning more about these practices.

The presentation will discuss my grunt.js and WP CLI deployment flow, just one part of the full package I use. In doing so it will also cover how to use the boilerplate git repository I’ve built to set it all up in just a few minutes, as well as basic git practices and alternate deployment methods such as Capistrano.

Personally, I beleive WP devs deserve access to the professional-grade workflows our peers enjoy using other languages and frameworks and I want to share what I’ve learned.
