Does This Theme Make My Website Look Fat? (Wordcamp SLC 2013)Adam Dunford

And as more and more sophisticated WordPress themes emerge, with their multiple options and fancy sliders, websites just keep getting more and more bloated.
This presentation will help cut out the junk that’s larding up your sites so you can better meet the demand of users wanting fast-loading user experiences–no matter the device or connection.

The presentation of the Drupal frontend optimizations from Drupal Camp LA 2011. The slides go over optimizations you do in the backend to serve files in the frontend faster and optimizations in the front end to css and javascript to make that aspect run faster.
80% of the time it takes for a web page to load is on the client side.
Using all the tips in this presentation should cut 25% to 50% off the load time of optimized page requests.
Drupal (6 or 7) can be used to, fairly easily, implement a whole bunch of these “front-end performance” upgrades, and knock a ton of errors off of the Yahoo! and Google speed-checker tools validation checklists.Get firebug first.
WordPress SEO in 2014 - WordCamp Baltimore 2014Arsham Mirshah

Today, a web page can be delivered to desktop computers, televisions, or handheld devices like tablets or phones. While a technique like responsive design helps ensure that our web sites look good across that spectrum of devices we may forget that we need to make sure that our web sites also perform well across that same spectrum. More and more of our users are shifting their Internet usage to these more varied platforms and connection speeds with some moving entirely to mobile Internet.
In this session we’ll look at the tools that can help you understand, measure and improve the web performance of your web sites and applications. The talk will also discuss how new server-side techniques might help us optimize our front-end performance. Finally, since the best way to test is to have devices in your hand, we’ll discuss some tips for getting your hands on them cheaply.
This presentation builds upon Dave’s “Optimization for Mobile” chapter in Smashing Magazine’s “The Mobile Book.”
This talk was given at the Responsive Web Design Summit hosted by Environments for Humans.

More Aim, Less Blame: How to use postmortems to turn failures into something ...Daniel Kanchev
Mistakes and failure are inevitable. Instead of being afraid of them, we should use them as lessons that help identify weak points in our organisations and systems. One way to do this is by writing blameless postmortems. Daniel details exactly how postmortems can help organizations and teams focus on improvement, and how that boosts work morale, makes products better, and strengthens your relationship with customers.
Those are the slides from my Drupal 8 + AngularJS presentation at Drupal IronCamp in Prague in 2016.

1. Single Page Applications - overview, history, architecture considerations, why using SPAs
2. AngularJS - what is AngularJS and why people like it so much
3. Drupal 8 REST API + AngularJS - capabilities, short overview and demo of a simple SPA based on Drupal 8 + AngularJS
At the end of the talk people will know the following:
- What is a single page application and what are the advantages of using SPAs

- During the talk a simple Drupal 8 + AngularJS app will be presented and code samples will be provided
This talk shares the story of how SiteGround created an enterprise monitoring system for its Drupal VIP clients. As the person behind this SiteGround project I'll talk about the following topics in details:
1. What is an enterprise level monitoring system for Drupal sites and the underlying hosting infrastructure.
2. Why big enterprise Drupal sites need such a system and what is the business value for the customer.
3. What is the best way to technically implement a system which monitors and solves issues with sites that are extremely complicated.
4. Why a migration from reactive monitoring to SRE best methods is the only option for such sites.
At the end of the talk people will know the following:
- Why big enterprise Drupal sites need custom monitoring.
- Why traditional monitoring is not suitable for sites that use the latest technologies - Elasticsearch, Solr, Nginx, Redis, Docker, LXC.
- At the end of the talk the people will be familiar with the concepts of proactive system/site management. I'll talk about what site reliability engineers do and how a big part of this has been automated at SiteGround and why this is very important.
The presentation focuses on providing information how to setup hosting servers to use Nginx/Varnish for caching Drupal websites. It features the SiteGround SuperCacher and gives valuable information about how reverse proxies work and how to make a Drupal 7/8 website cache-able by Nginx and Varnish.
This is the presentation which I used during the awesome "WPSession #11: Security for Site Owners". I shared important information about how site owners should react to website attacks. I talked about risk management, assets evaluation and getting help from the right people that know WordPress and care about security.
8 Most Common Joomla! Hacks and How to Avoid ThemDaniel Kanchev
On 23.03.2013 I visited The Netherlands to give the keynote speak about Joomla! web security. I talked about the most common 8 ways a Joomla! website can get hacked. So you should check the presentation if you are a Joomla! hacker that knows less than 8 ways :) It will be useful for you. However, if you are a Joomla user that doesn’t know anything about how to hack a Joomla!, or even worse, how to protect your Joomla! from being hacked, you should definitely check the slides! Because there is a way to protect yourself from each of the common Joomla hacks that I revealed them in the presentation.
I went through the following scenarios and what should be done to prevent each of them:
- Hacked through outdated Joomla!/extensions/themes.
- Hacked through a vulnerable extensions/themes, that is not outdated
- Hacked with the help of stolen/weak login details
- Hacked through outdated/vulnerable server software - Apache, PHP, MySQL.
- Hacked through incorrectly configured web server
- A completely healthy site hacked through another vulnerable Joomla that is hosted on the same server
- Hacked because of incorrect Joomla permissions
- Hacked through malware on local PC which allows attackers to access a healthy site
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

6. Common problems
… completely unordered!
Too many posts on the homepage
Too many social widgets
Too many external fonts used
Large/unoptimized Images
Themes with too many unused features
Too much CSS/JS code
No static content compression
No caching
No CDN
8. Page size
… matters!
Make a scroll map test ( crazyegg.com )
Reduce the number of posts per page
Progressive page loading (infinite scroll)
9. Social media widgets/plugins
… use them wisely!
Try not to use “Share on 100 social networks” services
Avoid using more than one social plugin
10. External fonts
… trust me, you don’t need 8 fonts on your site!
Include only fonts you use, on the pages you use them
Put fonts on your local server and include locally
Sacrifice the usage of a font for a better site performance
11. Images
… the right size and the right quality
Use images with the right size and specify their dimensions
Smush your images: http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-smushit/
Use sprites in your themes
12. Avoid bloated themes
… really, cut the fat!
Avoid themes that support every possible website idea
Don’t use all theme features on the same page
Make sure that the JavaScript and CSS is loaded only when needed
13. Minify your CSS and JS
… the smaller the size, the better!
Try using WP Minify: http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-minify/
If you’re already using it, enable minify options in W3 Total Cache
14. Enable gZIP compression
… for HTML, CSS and JavaScript!
Use .htaccess rules instead of plugins:
http://kb.siteground.com/enable-gzip-via-htaccess/
15. Leverage browser caching
… whatever that means!
The .htaccess rules:
http://kb.siteground.com/leverage-browser-caching/
16. Move your JS code to the
footer in WordPress
The functions.php code:
http://www.fluxbytes.com/wordpress/move-javascriptfiles-to-footer-in-wordpress/
18. Use a CDN service
… but do it wisely!
Measure if your site is working faster
Even local business can take advantage by the CDN
Bonus: “Always Online ” service
19. Cache your content
… if you don’t cache your content that’s bad and you should feel bad!
Use object caching - Memcached, Redis
Use opcode caching - АPC, xCache
Use reverse proxies - Varnish, nGinx
29. Some Key Takes
Speed Optimization is a process - do it regularly and you
will be rewarded!
Always test! Don’t test on a live site, use staging copies
instead. Backup!
Choose a well optimised host!
