Our speakers are passionate, expert volunteers who want to teach you about WordPress and publishing on the web.<\/p>\n<p>The event is organized into three different rooms that each have something going on at any given moment. Our goal is to ensure that any WordPress user, whether they are an experienced WordPress developer or a novice blogger, always has at least one talk going on that will be interesting to them. Not all talks are appropriate for all users, but we are confident that anyone could walk away form WordCamp with lots of new knowledge and ideas for making the most of WordPress.<\/p>\n<p>To learn about the history of WordCamp Montreal (<a title=\"WordCamp 2009 Archive\" href=\"http:\/\/wpmtl.org\/wordcamp\/wordcamp-2009-archive-2\/\">2009<\/a>,\u00a0<a title=\"WordCamp 2010 Archive\" href=\"http:\/\/wpmtl.org\/wordcamp\/wordcamp-2010-archive\/\">2010<\/a>,\u00a0<a title=\"WordCamp 2011 Archive\" href=\"http:\/\/2011.montreal.wordcamp.org\/\">2011<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/2012.montreal.wordcamp.org\/\">2012<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/2013.montreal.wordcamp.org\/\">2013<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/montreal.wordcamp.org\/2014\/\">2014<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/2015.montreal.wordcamp.org\">2015<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/2016.montreal.wordcamp.org\">2016<\/a>) visit the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/wpmtl.org\/wordcamp\">Montreal WordPress Community website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>WordCamp Montr\u00e9al 2017: August\u00a012-13<\/h3>\n<p>This year\u2019s WordCamp will be another awesome example of how much Montr\u00e9al WordPress enthusiasts can get done working together.<\/p>\n<h3>Acknowledgments<\/h3>\n<p>Thank you to Cristel Rossignol for the graphic design and Jeremy Clarke for the photos.<\/p>\n<h3>Get the Latest WordCamp Montr\u00e9al News<\/h3>\n<p>Sign up to get news about Montreal WordCamps and the Montreal WordPress Community.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a class=\"simple-button\" href=\"http:\/\/eepurl.com\/lvJHn\"><span class=\"newsletter-icon\">SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Join our\u00a0<a title=\"WordCamp Montreal Facebook Group\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/wpmtl\/\">Facebook group<\/a>\u00a0or follow us on\u00a0<a title=\"WordCamp Montreal Twitter account\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/wordcampmtl\">Twitter<\/a>\u00a0to get updates about upcoming Montreal WordCamp events, as well as invitations to our monthly\u00a0<a title=\"Social Meetups\" href=\"http:\/\/meetup.com\/wp-mtl\">meetups<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If you need to need more information, please\u00a0<a title=\"Contact\" href=\"https:\/\/2017.montreal.wordcamp.org\/about\/contact\/\">contact us<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WordCamp Montr\u00e9al is an annual conference about the world\u2019s most popular blogging and CMS software\u00a0WordPress.
