WordCamp Johannesburg is Friday 30 October. The rest of the year, we meet on a Saturday.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

WordCamp Johannesburg is a full day at The Edge, Knightsbridge. Ten talks. We\u2019re looking forward to meeting everyone there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That didn\u2019t come out of nowhere. WP Joburg<\/a> is the monthly meetup this event grew out of. Same organisers. Most months of the year, usually a Saturday morning at Cube Workspace in Fourways, sometimes another spot around Joburg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Come to a meetup<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We try mix up the talks so that there is something for everyone. South African hosting. The block editor. Elementor v4. Agency project management. Getting cited by AI, not only ranked on Google. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then pizza, and you end up talking to someone about an interesting project. We\u2019re looking for sponsors to keep the meetup running too, not only WordCamp. If that\u2019s you, get in touch via\u00a0wpjoburg.co.za<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If it’s your first time, you don\u2019t have to be a developer, we have a great group from solo people trying out WordPress for the first time up to agencies who work with WordPress every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dates go up on\u00a0Meetup<\/a>. RSVP there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then come to WordCamp<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A few meetup regulars are on the schedule<\/a>, including a talk on the future of WordPress meetups. If you only make one WordPress thing this year, make it 30 October. If you can do both, even better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

See you at Knightsbridge. And on a Saturday, if you can make it \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n
