千葉県での初級~中級のWordPressの勉強会です。
今回はChiba WordPress Meetupの単独企画イベント(オンライン/オフライン同時開催)です。
5月の会は定番企画のなんでも相談会を開催します。
日頃WordPressを弄っていると色々な疑問や質問が出てくるかと思います。
「ここをこうするにはどうしたらいいかしら?」
「何か自分の考えを体現できるいいプラグインはないかしら?」
「うちのWordPressサイトを運用するレンタルサーバーを変更したいけどオススメは?」
等々あるかと思います。
それをこの機会に解決してみませんか?
もちろん全ての疑問に解決出来る保証はありませんが、三人寄れば文殊の知恵ともいいますので、解決に少しでも近づけれる様にオーガナイザー含め全員で色々考えてみませんか。
多くの皆さんのご登壇をお待ちしております。

Qamaria Yemeni Coffee
Qamaria Yemeni Coffee is authentic, spacious, has a helpful staff, and I like their espresso. If you try this place on your own, they’re open early and late.
This spot has been recommended a couple times and I think it’ll make a great stop on our journey. Come out Saturday morning for a relaxed convo.
(Please keep your RSVP updated if you know you won't be able to attend, so others who can join have the opportunity to. No discussions on politics, religion or potentially controversial topics. We're here to relax and have fun. Just be respectful and we'll be alright. Pay your own way, and enjoy!)

Think animation is just for kids and can’t contemplate big themes? Think again, and join us for a screening of Pixar’s Oscar-winning film, Soul.
Jamie Foxx voices Joe Gardner, a part-time music teacher and aspiring jazz pianist, whose life is dedicated to making it as a professional musician.
On the day of his big break, he is nearly killed in a freak accident. On a conveyor belt to the “Great Beyond”, Joe escapes to the “Great Before”, a bardo in reverse, where the unborn are prepared for life on Earth. There he meets “22”, voiced by Tina Fey, and together they find out what’s makes life worth living.
It’s rare that any film, animated or live action, can be so entertaining while simultaneously giving you so much to think about.
Stick around after the screening for a discussion of how the film speaks to you.
