\nThe program starts with a Contributor Day on Sunday November 19, 2017, at 9:30 to 17:00 in the premises of DIBS in central Stockholm – Kungsgatan 32. <\/p>\n
The main idea with the Contributor Day is that we in a relaxed way help the development of WordPress and the surrounding community.<\/p>\n
There will be three specialized groups, which all begin with a presentation\/introduction and then continue in practical work:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Translation of WordPress<\/li>\n
- Composer-based WordPress development<\/li>\n
- Support forums \u2013 giving and receiving help<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
In addition, we\u2019ll have one more conference-like trail which mostly will deal with WooCommerce, a popular e-trade solution that is an extension to WordPress:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Easy-Peasy checkout for WooCommerce<\/li>\n
- Making WordPress and WooCommerce Fast and Scalable<\/li>\n
- WooCommerce \u2013 hands-on workshop<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
However, most important at the Contributor Day would be the social<\/em> part: Simply meeting other nice people, who use WordPress in various ways, just like you. Perhaps you just want to spend som time with other WordPress fans? Or work a bit on your own site? You\u2019ll be surrounded by people that gladly will help you, should you get stuck. And maybe someone wants to see how you make your site work exactly as you want.<\/p>\n
In order for you to get the most out of this day, we suggest you bring your own computer.
\nIf you still don\u2019t have any account at WordPress.org then it\u2019s good to make sure you get one in advance at https:\/\/login.wordpress.org\/<\/p>\nPlease note that the number of seats on the Sunday event is limited. We\u2019ll distribute information to all Conference participants on how to secure your spot here.<\/p>\n

\nMonday is the then the very Conference happens. This year it will be executed jointly with Internetdagarna, the biggest event in Sweden around Internet business. The venue is Stockholm Waterfront Conference, very close to the central railway station Stockholm C.<\/p>\nWe\u2019ll have two parallell streams for WordPress, with lectures and discussions about a wide array of topics that all are connected to WordPress in various ways. Here are just a few examples:<\/p>\n
- \n
- GDPR for WordPress users<\/li>\n
- How to use hooks and filters in the right way to add new functionality to WordPress<\/li>\n
- Using the WooCommerce plugin for charities<\/li>\n
- WordPress and WooCommerce as a tool to make your entrepreneurial dreams come true<\/li>\n
- WordPress security<\/li>\n
- \u2026 and much more<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
About half of the presentations will be in English, and the other half in Swedish. The schedule is laid out in such a way that you may choose to visit lectures in only Swedish or only English.<\/p>\n
During the breaks between the lectures you\u2019ll be able to meet with our great sponsors and mingle with all the other conference participants. Remember to bring your stack of business cards, you\u2019re going to need them!<\/p>\n

When you buy your ticket, you\u2019ve got the option to appoint your company as a Micro Sponsor. The more Micro Sponsors we get, the more subsidized tickets we\u2019ll be able to offer (and the funnier an event we\u2019ll all get!)<\/p>\n
Micro Sponsors will get their logo and back link published on the official web site of the event. In addition, on the conference day, we\u2019ll say an official \u201cThank you\u201d from the podium for their support.<\/p>\n
