While a powerful tool for community projects, WordPress presents challenges that can be difficult for small, local community groups to overcome. Hosting costs, updates to the software, theme, and plugins, and actually using WordPress are only some of the challenges of working with this CMS.
When approached by a local initiative that he was inclined to support, Liam Dempsey, our speaker this month, took advantage of the opportunity to explore creating a WordPress-to-static website that addressed the challenges that come with dynamic WordPress websites.
In a focused presentation, Liam will walk through the concerns and issues that he worked to address while sharing a number of practical ideas on how others can use the WordPress-to-static approach to support efforts that matter to them.
