Paul Bearne – Featured Speaker

Even though Paul recently moved to Kingston, we still think of him as a local speaker. Paul (with Peter Toi and Andrew Grant) helped us assemble our Dev Track this year.

Paul is speaking Saturday morning at 11:00 am in Room 149. His topic is a comparison of meta box frameworks. Let’s get to know him…

I’m lucky enough to wake up to a view of the lake every morning – and get out on it in a kayak, canoe or motor boat whenever I can! See https://2017.toronto.wordcamp.org/speaker/paul-bearne/ for more about me.

Explore the options and frameworks for adding custom meta boxes to WordPress admin.

Custom meta boxes are a fundamental tool in customizing the functionality available within WordPress. This presentation will give you a deeper understanding of what they are, how to use and extend them and which methods are likely to work best for you.

WCTO is my WordPress home! And it’s great to tear myself away from the lake once in a while and come back to the city, visiting friends and familiar haunts.
