WordPress Alert!

Free webinar! Register now if you use WordPress …

If you’re a Cumbrian business with a WordPress website you need to get ready for the biggest change to the platform since it was first launched in 2003.

The entire interface that’s used to create posts and pages will be getting a complete overhaul very soon.

The new editing system – known as ‘Gutenberg’ – will be introduced when version 5 of WordPress is rolled out.

It could mean that some websites break and users who were once confident with the platform no longer know how to use it.

Many Cumbrian businesses are using WordPress to create websites, either doing it on their own or outsourcing the work to a local web company.

So how much disruption is this changeover going to cause?

We’re holding a special webinar to explain exactly what’s involved and how the changes will impact on your WordPress website …

Register now and get ahead of the changes …

Date: Tuesday 2nd October, 2018

Time: 7-8pm

Registration link: http://cumbriagrowthhub.co.uk/briefing

Webinar host: Paul Teague, Digital Development Manager, Cumbria Chamber of Commerce

Don’t worry if you can’t make the live presentation, register for the webinar anyway and that will mean that we can send you the replay video as soon as it’s been processed (usually within 1 working day).

Will your business get caught out by the changes to WordPress?

We certainly hope not!

As well as providing this free webinar giving more detail about the forthcoming changes, we’ll also be organising a training day to get you ready for the new Gutenberg interface.

Please register for the webinar now at http://cumbriagrowthhub.co.uk/briefing and we’ll release details of our bespoke WordPress training in the live webinar presentation on 2nd October.
