Notas do Editor
- Intro Self Delegates: what do you use WP for? do you manage a site? what do you want to get from today?
- A caveat - lots of links to WPMU DEV - great resource for advanced users
- Flipchart: who has a publishing schedule? Who’s set one & not stuck to it? How often do you need to publish to your site? How do you share your content? Do you research your target audience first? Exercise: Think about your target audience: who are they? demographics? when are they online? what might they want from your site? what social media do they use? Managing comments Flipchart: who has commenting on their site? how have you got it set up? how often do people comment? do people respond to each other? how often / quickly do you reply? Does this work? Share best practice & ideas. Bring up the Discussion settings screen.
- Flipchart - do you know what version of WordPress your site is running? Brainstorm - why is it important to keep WP up to date? security, performance, compatibility, features What stops you updating? How to create a local copy of your site.
- Updating themes and plugins Show the update screen. Flipchart - are all your themes and plugins up to date? Why is it important to keep them up to date?
- Installing and finding themes and plugins safe sources free ones should ALWAYs be from wordpress.org when buying paid, get recommendations Brainstorm: which plugins & themes do you use? how did you find them? how did you decide what to use?
- Example for a client site - this output spammy links to completely unrelated sites which had paid the client’s previous developer to do this. I’ve seen ‘free’ themes that do similar things or worse!
- Brainstorm - do you know what caching is? How many people use caching on their site? What plugin do you use?
- Minifying: what is minifying? Can reduce file size by 20-50% Who uses minifying? What plugins do you use?
- Coding standards What do you know about them? WordPress coding standrads web standards best practices for speed Show page for WP coding standards Show page for web standards (W3C) All your themes and plugins should adhere to these standards - it’ll make your site more efficient, better for SEO and much better for accessibility. It will also reduce chances of an update breaking things. Web standards: markup your pages correctly minimise http requests load stylesheets at the top and scripts at the bottom use external CSS and JavaScript avoid redirects use trailing slashes WordPress standards: use PHP correctly call functions correctly and attach them to the right hook minimise the number of queries on a page DON’T use query_posts
- Brainstorm: who backs up their site? who has it automated? how often how does this compare to how often you’re adding content? have you ever tried doing a restore? how easy is it? I THINK THIS IS SOMETHING WORTH PAYING FOR. Exercise: research backup plugins create a backup schedule practice doing a restore - work out how to do it with your plugin
- Site management and admin PASSWORDS Updates - WP, themes, plugins Sourcing themes and plugins SFTP Brainstorm do you let your users set their won passwords? Do you give clients admin access? Do you limit password strength? Do you (be honest) use secure passwords yourself?
- Configuring your WP installation security keys hardening WP
- Locking down part of your installation restrict access by IP address password-protect the wp-admin directory (using CPanel) disallow file editing via the dashboard
- Security by obscurity anyone know what this is? how effective is it? Examples: database table names changing the $table_prefix value in your wp-config.php file. usernames
- Monitoring your site who does this? - think about the impact of your site being left not working for some time: seo reputation possible loss of data
