The WordCamp Skopje 2018 contributor day will be held Sunday, October 14th at FINKI barrack 2. Registration starts at 9:00, and morning sessions start at 10:00.
Make sure you book your spot at the event!
NEVER CONTRIBUTED BEFORE?
That’s okay! This is a chance for you to learn how to contribute from people who are already contributors all in one day!
It really does not matter what your knowledge of WordPress is, nor do you need to be a developer or coder to be involved. There will be plenty of people on hand to help you get started!
BE PREPARED
Please make sure that you register for the contributor day.
On the day, make sure you bring your laptop and charger!
If you need any adaptors for your plugs to be converted to UK plug sockets, please don’t forget these too!
If you can, please make sure that you have the following:
- WordPress.org account
- WordPress.org Slack account
- Slack – either installed on your machine or use the web app.
For some teams, it is also necessary to have a local installation of WordPress. If you do not have a local installation of WordPress, feel free to use this guide to set one up. If not, there will be a set up team on hand to help you out on the day.
THE DIFFERENT WAYS TO CONTRIBUTE
There are a number of areas where you can make a difference. Contributions to WordPress are split into different teams.
If you are unsure of what team you would like to join, don’t panic. There will be people on the day whom can help you find what team will suit you best.
You can also move from different teams if you find something isn’t to your taste.
For more information about each team please follow the links below.
- Core – You can write code, fix bugs, debate decisions, and help with WordPress development.
- Themes – Reviewing Themes sharpens your own Theme development skills. You can help out and join the discussion on the blog.
- Polyglots – WordPress is used all over the world and in many different languages. If you’re a polyglot, contribute by translating WordPress into your own language.
- Community – Keep up with the local community, and organize meetups.
AND MORE!
There are many other teams that are not currently listed. Please check make.wordpress.org for the full list of teams.
