Maximize the All In One SEO Wordpress PluginScott Stawarz
Right now, the All In One SEO (AIOSEO) plugin has been downloaded over 5,000,000 times and is one of the most popular wordpress plugins. Finding an answer on why it is popular can be found by looking at why we blog. For some, we blog to be more accountable, we blog for recognition, we blog for fun, we blog to help others, we blog for money. Ultimately, we blog to be found. One way to be found is to make sure your wordpress site is optimized for search engine readability by using the All In One SEO plugin. During the session we will discuss:
*Should you even install the All In One SEO plugin? Doesn't Wordpress do SEO for me?
*After activating the All In One SEO plugin, what are the initial settings? Home title, Home Description, Different Title Formats, Noindex
*AIOSEO is Installed, Now what should you do for each post? what's the difference between the Page Title and Post Title? Do I worry about Description and Keywords?
Accessible Websites With Lotus Notes/Domino, presented at the BLUG day event,...Martin Leyrer
EU-Legislation demands 'accessible' websites, often leaving details or exact specifications on what that means out. In this session, we will have a look at the most often cited 'specifications', the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 1.0 and 2.0 and how to interpret them. I will show a few free tools that can help a Notes Developer to asses what needs to be done to make a website 'compliant'. And of course I will offer quick tips and easy to implement 'hacks' to make an existing web application more 'accessible', sharing along the way a few best practices and experiences from the work I have done so far.

How to Organize Your Content Through Navigation and WayfindingShanta Nathwani
Posts vs. Pages & Categories vs. Tags. There is so much confusion about what types of things should be put on a page and what should be in a post. Static vs. Dynamic content is the best way to tackle this. When creating a website, you can edit a menu to include not only pages, but also categories that can create a more complete experience.
Organizing Your Content - WordPress Hamilton March 2020Shanta Nathwani
Many people overlook the organization of their content and present it to their visitors reflected in their navigation. What does the visitor do once they've made it to your website and want to read more? If they can't find what their looking for, they'll leave.

WordCamp Hamilton - CPT's vs Gutenberg TemplatesShanta Nathwani
In our last episode, dear campers, we learned about Custom Post Types (CPT’s) and Advanced Custom Fields (ACF’s) and why we need them. We had everything clear, right? Enter Gutenberg…
Until Gutenberg, we had to copy over content from one old post to the new. The other option is to use CPT’s and ACF’s. What’s the difference? When should you use one or the other… or BOTH?
In this session, we’ll take a quick review of CPT’s and ACF’s, then compare them to Gutenberg Blocks and Templates, and discuss when you should use each and why.
This presentation is meant to give the very basics of building a website on WordPress with Gutenberg and JetPack. We are going to build these pages: About, Contact, Blog. Then showing you how to set a static page as the home page, as well as organizing your menu.
An Affordable REST - Coder Camp Hamilton 2019Shanta Nathwani
This presentation talks about the need for municipalities to take more of an interest in presenting their constituents with information, especially around affordable housing. How much work and money can be saved if they invest a little time in disseminating information on a website, rather than hoarding it? I was able to produce this project in 5 days as a student. What's their excuse?
This presentation was given to the WordPress Hamilton Community in the hopes of diversifying the speaker submissions for WordCamp Hamilton and beyond. We had a small but mighty group and with the help of the Diversity Training at WordPress, we were able to encourage a few more speakers.
This case study was presented at Full Stack Toronto Conference 2017 showing the case for my project, An Affordable REST, which helps people find subsidized housing in Toronto. This was a full stack project, using React and Node.js

"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.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.

4. 2. Backup
Most hosting companies will offer a backup system of some
kind
Jetpack has one
WordPress.com doesn't need one
I recommend Backup Buddy by iThemes because of its
options, it's easy to use and to migrate, especially those in
the room hoping to do their own development business
Another good solution (and free for the most part) is Updraft
Plus
5. 3. Contact Information
Contact forms rather than publishing your email address
Mailchimp signup form. Integrates with WordPress and
can be done as a widget
6. 4. Themes
The “Look and Feel”
of your website
Might include some
functionality
The “Front End” or
what people see
From Graph Paper Press
7. 5. Theme Selection
Start with the repository
Can be accessed through your Dashboard >
Appearances > Themes
Directly at wordpress.org/themes
If not, go outside and use the authors in the repository as
a start
Do not Google “free WordPress themes”!
These could contain malicious code
8. 5. Theme selection (con’t)
Where do I start?
Ask yourself, “What is the purpose of the website?”.
Many of the themes are categorized by purpose (i.e.,
photography/portfolio, business, blog, etc.)
Ask yourself, “What do I want it to look like? Do I want
a big header? Do I want columns? Main content with
sidebar?”. A good way to familiarize yourself with
these is to look in the repository.
Make sure that the them you choose is mobile-
enabled/responsive!
9. 6. Plugins
Plugins extend the
usefulness of your
website
Some examples are
Backup Buddy and
Jetpack
The “Back End” or what
people don’t see
10. 6. Plugin Selection
Just like the themes, best to check the repository
(http://wordpress.org/plugins)
Don’t overload your site. Choose your plugins carefully.
First, by function. What do you need it to do?
Is there a plugin that does multiple functions, such as
memberships AND payments? This is such a wide
area, you need to research it. It will depend on what
functionality you need.
11. 7. More About Hiring a Professional
Educate yourself
Not only about the terminology, but also have an
idea of what you want. This saves everyone a good
amount of time and effort.
Expect to give a deposit of some sort, whether you’re
working with a student or a professional. Don’t expect
any of this for free.
This is not a cookie cutter process, nor is it an
overnight one.
12. Extra Resources
WordPress.com: This is where you can learn almost
everything I’ve just talked about! There is also one for
.ORG, but this will get you about 90% of the way there.
Skip the “Getting Started” part if you are using the .ORG
WordPress.tv: Most of the talks given at WordCamps are
recorded and archived here. You can find my talks
there!
Marc Benzakein did a great presentation called: “How
to Rock a WordCamp Even if You’re a n00b” at
WordCamp Toronto 2014. (PS. He’ll be here this
weekend too!)
Now that you’ve decided to go to Self-hosted, which host to you go for?
Shared is less costly in most cases, but they are becoming much more competitive.
Managed hosting is more of a “hands on” approach from the provider. They look after the updates for you, as well as protect your interests.
Not an easy question as to who is reliable.
