Share Your Favorite WordPress Plugin

Duplicate Post and SlimPack

We heard you! Lots of members have been chatting about plugins and asking for recommendations.

With over 45,000 plugins, it's hard to know to know which ones work best, have good support, and fit your needs.

Here's your opportunity to share your favorite plugin and learn what others in the group are using on their site or their client sites.

You'll have five minutes to discuss your favorite plugin. Explain:

• What it is (you can show screenshots or visit the plugin in the plugin directory)

• What features it offers

• Why you like it, what problems does it solve

This is a member-driven event, let Deborah know you're interested in sharing so she can add you to the agenda.

PARKING AND VENUE INFORMATION

Grand Circus is located in the Broderick Tower (http://www.brodericktower.com/), and you enter from the Woodward-facing doors.

Once inside, go to the end of the hall, and take the elevator to the fourth floor. Turn left when you get off the elevator, then turn right and look for the signs directing you to the room.

Parking is available at the Detroit Opera House parking garage, located on Broadway. Parking is $10 (unless there's a special event). There's also limited paid street parking on the streets.

The Detroit Opera House parking garage is a short walk up Broadway and around the corner from the Grand Circus space. Here's parking information from the Broderick Tower website (PDF) (http://www.grandcircus.co/perch/resources/grand-circus-parking-map.pdf).

Note: with the M-1 rail construction downtown, it will be challenging to maneuver downtown streets and find street parking. Stay current on the construction by visiting the M-1 construction page (http://m-1rail.com/construction/).

Please note that if there are less than 10 people registered, we'll cancel the event and notify everyone by Sunday before the meetup.

Everyone wanting to attend the meetup must register online. No walk-ins.
