THE MSHINI BLOG

 

Mshini will be at WordCamp Cape Town!

September 21, 2018

Since 2006, WordPress enthusiasts from around the world have organised local conferences in order to share knowledge about the platform. WordCamps generally include sessions on how to use WordPress more effectively, beginning plugin and theme development, advanced techniques, security and many other topics.

The conference is open to anyone who wants to attend, from absolute beginners to professional developers who would like to meet up with like-minded people to share their experience.

Mshini is proud to be hosting a booth at the Cape Town event on Thursday the 1st and Friday the 2nd of November, 2018. It will be held at The White Space Venue in Woodstock. We will be demonstrating the unique features of our hosting platform, showing off how easy it is to use our control panel and handing out Mshini-branded swag. Come say hello!

Tickets to attend are still available, but are selling out fast! Tickets include full access to both days of WordCamp Cape Town, including admission to all talks, workshops, the contributor track and the official WordCamp Post Conference Social, not to mention the awesome food and swag. Make sure you grab yours before they run out!

And if you can’t make it to the Mother City, never fear! There’s a Johannesburg WordCamp happening on the 25th and the 26th October, 2018.
