WP Multisite showcase – A talk by John Peden

WordPress as an enterprise-level CMS – WordPress shook off it’s image as a simple blogging tool some time ago. John was engaged on an 18-month long project with The British Council that pushed the use of WordPress as an enterprise-level CMS and included a super-advanced deployment and caching system you probably won’t have seen elsewhere.

 

Anyone with any experience of WordPress is welcome, whether you’ve heard about it and want to know more, you’re an experienced WordPress user or developer, or anything in between; you are welcome to our meetings.

If you fancy coming along, please let us know at our Meetup page.

Mike Little (http://zed1.com), co-founder of WordPress, runs MWUG so come along to discover how WordPress can benefit you or your organisation, and get specific advice on any WordPress questions you have.
