Join the WordPress Portsmouth Online Meetup on 17th February 2021 for a talk about taking a plugin from pre to post Gutenberg.
Meg Phillips will share the thought process that guided her as she upgraded her plugin Charter Boat Bookings to work even more effectively with the WordPress Block Editor and new requirements of WordPress 5.5+. She will cover how she followed good practice of using vanilla JS versus relying on jQuery.
The event starts at 7pm GMT (7pm UTC). We will be providing a Zoom link for you to connect to the online Meetup.
To get the link, please register to attend this #OnlineWPMeetup.
