Purpose

The WordPress SIG will provide a central resource for sharing best practices, development strategies, and solutions to common problems. In-person or online meetups and events will be an opportunity to showcase projects, share code examples, and discuss enterprise-level management of WordPress environments.

Although specific design and development goals will likely vary from campus to campus, common areas for collaboration and discussion might include:

• Integrating WordPress with single sign-on systems
• Deployment strategies and version control for homegrown themes and plugins
• Multisite administration best practices
• Configuring WordPress for HTTPS
• WordPress security
• End-user training and support

Primary audiences for the SIG:

• Web designers and developers working on WordPress projects (custom themes and plugins)
• Service administrators responsible for supporting users and maintaining infrastructure

Secondary audience (depending on interest):

• WordPress support staff (help desk) and trainers
• WordPress “power users” (eg. topics like teaching with WordPress, document management with WordPress, etc.)
