About us

Hi and welcome to WordPress Cambridge #wpcbg
WordPress Cambridge is a monthly Zoom Meetup for users, designers & developers to pool their knowledge, experiences and techniques.  Traditionally we run on the second Monday evening, UK time, of the month. Voted the 8th best meetup in town by a Cambridge Business lounge poll. However, our August and December meetups are at a local Cambridge pub, as there is a small WordPress community around town.
Every meeting is an open discussion where everyone is free to share their experiences, knowledge and solutions. Often Chris or Simon introduce the topic, just to get the discussion started. Then participants take over. Questions are great, and hopefully someone knows a solution. Ideally, everyone leaves with a greater knowledge of WordPress.
We also have a code of conduct to ensure our meetings are friendly and welcoming to everyone who wants to attend. Please check it out!

Dear All,
Following on from February's wonderful demonstrations of Full Site Editing, (Thank you Steve, Paul, Tony & Laurence) some common challenges emerged:

  • Child themes: best practices,
  • How to do layouts with blocks,
  • What blocks people use,
  • Container blocks, and
  • Widths

Do sign up here: https://www.meetup.com/wordpress-cambridge/events/313369262/

Andy Gilbert kindly volunteered to demonstrate how he uses Child Themes. As usual, we'll hope the group will discuss and share how they handle the other issues. It's curious how a few who really understand the issue always roll up.

We're a discussion meeting
It's still a discussion meeting. Everyone is welcome to ask questions, and hopefully someone knows an answer. Beginner or advanced, we’re here to learn from one another. As always, our friendly regulars from the UK, Europe, and the USA will be joining in.

Chris will, as usual, start by describing the challenges, to encourage a discussion.

Evening's Schedule:
7:00 PM – Quick hellos and intros: Share your WordPress journey in 10 seconds!
7:15 PM – Open discussions with live Q&A and contributions from attendees. Feel free to share your screen.
8:30 PM – Brainstorm ideas for next month’s topic.
9:00 PM – Official close, but you’ll leave inspired and more connected with our WordPress community!

Why Attend?
From the UK to the US and across Europe, our meetups bring together a diverse group of WordPress enthusiasts. You’ll tap into a wealth of knowledge and get real-world tips and solutions for your design projects.
