Greenville SC WordPress Group

What's so great about Elementor? Should you use it?
Seems like most WordPress websites are now using Elementor. Let's talk about what is working best.

We sincerely hope you will join us for an informal opportunity to talk about why Elementor has become so popular.

This meetup will be primarily hosted by Clifton. He's been using Elementor effectively for many years and is excited to show you why it works so well for him and can for you as well.

Feel free to bring your questions, ideas, thoughts, and recommendations on WordPress, Elementor, or any other plugins or tools you like.

Long-time co-organizer Clifton Canady will be ready to help you with any web dev, Elementor, or WordPress questions or issues you may want to talk about.

Clifton is an experienced front-end web developer and designer with nearly 20 years of expertise in creating SEO-friendly, visually engaging websites. Having worked on over 200 projects, Clifton specializes in delivering user-focused designs and integrating cutting-edge technologies, including AI and WordPress enhancements.

The new co-organizer Corey Creed may be available also. Corey will be traveling the three weeks before and his presence will depend on his availability.

This meeting will be at a great little coffee and ice cream shop called "Spill the Beans". (How appropriate!) They have plenty of room and are happy to let us use their fantastic facility. We hope you'll join us in supporting them by getting something delicious while you are there.

In the future, we'll be open to finding locations that might be better suited to larger groups and/or lectures. Please also let us know if you have any ideas for locations, topics or speakers. Feel free to reach out to Clifton or Corey.

See you then!

PS: Can you keep a secret? We're starting conversations about an upcoming WordCamp. Be sure to take special note of June's meetup!

Is it Time for a Greenville / Spartanburg WordCamp?

Is the time right again for in-person events? Could a WordCamp be held in the Upstate again? What would it take? What would the first steps be?

Everyone is welcome to this open discussion. In particular, we are very interested in hearing from anyone who has organized or been a part of other WordCamps locally or elsewhere.

We look forward to discussing timing and location and hearing about the historical impact that previous pre-COVID WordCamps had on the local area.

Time permitting, we may also discuss the feasibility of a BarCamp or any other similar tech event that is focused less on programming and more on business, content, design, AI, and marketing.

Clifton was the organizer for the previous two WordCamps in Greenville before Covid and would love to hear from everyone and anyone that might be interested in attending one in early 2026. He can update all of us on when this could happen and how.

However, the new co-organizer Corey Creed is available also. Corey has spent over 20 years as an entrepreneur and marketer. He's created and sold online businesses and is thrilled to start meeting more locals.

Corey is looking forward to interesting conversations with anyone that wants to leverage WordPress, AI, Google, and other opportunities to start or grow their business.
