Reserve your spot and RSVP now!

Contributor Day is a long honored tradition that follows WordCamps. Because of its open source nature, WordPress relies on constant love and attention from contributors the world over.

On Contributor Day, the local WordPress Community of developers and designers gather to help give back to WordPress by helping with the following:

  • Updating and adding to the WordPress Codex
  • Updating and helping with the WordPress Handbooks
  • Reviewing bug reports on Trac and helping to stomp them out
  • Reporting, reviewing, and stomping out bug reports discovered at WordCamp!
  • Taking time in the WordPress Support Forums to answer questions and find answers

You do not have to be a savvy developer or programmer to help us give back to WordPress! We need anyone who can write, research, and answer a question as well. All are welcome!

To participate in this free event, all you need is one of the following skills:

  • A willingness to help other WordPress users
  • Writing and research skills
  • An interest in helping out in the WordPress Support Forums
  • An interest in or familiarity with the WordPress Trac (bug tracking)
  • PHP, JavaScript, and WordPress programming familiarity

Join us for a day of giving back to WordPress!

We’ll bring the food, you bring your laptop!

A big thanks to DeskHub coworking space for donating our beautiful venue. (Seriously everyone, this place is gorgeous.) Lunch will be catered! Bring your laptop, charger and coffee mug (coffee cups will be provided, but brownie points given out to those of you who bring your own!) and let’s get to work.

Please RSVP, if you have not already, and let us know what team you’d like to be a part of, and if you have any dietary restrictions! We’ll do our best to take care of you!
