We will hosting the online meetup on Zoom. To reduce the risk of Zoom bombing, we will only share the link for the Zoom call in our Slack channel. We will also use a waiting room in Zoom, so please be sure to add your name to your profile in Zoom. (For safety reasons, we will not allow those we cannot identify to enter the Zoom call.)
Members of our group are invited to join our Slack channel where we be will sharing questions for the presenters, chatting back and forth with each other, and recreating the warm, friendly atmosphere of our in-person events as best as we can.
A Reminder about Security
By now, we expect most folks will have heard of Zoom bombing. We’re eager to avoid this issue, and that desire is why we’re pursuing the workflow described above. We will be closely monitoring who we allow into our Slack channel. We’re not looking to exclude folks that we don’t know (we love a diverse WordPress community) – yet, we’re serious in our efforts to avoid issues like Zoom bombing. Please understand if we ask you to verify your identity or invite one of our members to vouch for you before we let you into our Slack channel.
Our Presentations
We hope to have three talks: two 10 to 15-minute talks, and our main talk will be about GiveWP.

How do get connected to your Slack channel? I missed the last meetup partly due to a booking overlap but not having the Zoom link sealed the deal.
I’m currently only a member of the WCPhilly channel.
