The Wooassist team has set aside one day away from WooCommerce woes to get in touch with the local WordPress community in the recent WordCamp 2017 which happened in Manila.

Wooassist General Manager John, Project Manager Rob and Lead Developer Karl attended the one day event which took place at iAcademy Plaza in Makati last November 11. WordCamp is a conference for WordPress bloggers and developers and is held in different countries all over the world.

This year’s WordCamp had different breakout tracks to choose from. John attended the Designer’s Track. Rob attended the Blogging Track and Karl attended the Security and Maintenance Track. There was also a Developer’s Track. Unfortunately,  the team was not able to register for this track as slots were gone fast.

The talks were very insightful. The team certainly learned a lot and we’ll be sharing what we learned in future blog posts.

The panel discussions after the talks delved a lot on the future of WordPress. It appears that the local WordPress community is very keen on the direction that WordPress is taking.

Overall, WordCamp was a nice break from dealing with WooCommerce problems.

We’re looking forward to the next time WordCamp happens nearby.
