May 6th: LA ExpressionEngine Meetup

The next Los Angeles ExpressionEngine Meetup takes place on Tuesday May 6th at 7pm. The topic will be “Refine or Reboot” and take a look at both ExpressionEngine and Craft.

ExpressionEngine is one of the primary tools we use to build websites. However, knowing a tool well is to also know its limits. Join us to discuss common pain points with ExpressionEngine and how one agency has found themselves turning to Craft CMS - a new CMS by the popular ExpressionEngine add-on developers Pixel & Tonic - to solve some of these problems.

There are a handful of prizes available for attendees, so be sure to RSVP to attend.

Learn About Add-on Development at the EE PDX Meetup

This Thursday, March 13, the EE PDX meetup group will meet and cover how to get started building add-ons for ExpressionEngine.

One of our Eugene-based members, Eli Van Zoeren, will teach us how to write/create plugins and extensions to solve your templating roadblocks. Instead of dropping into inline PHP code (messy, insecure, incompatible with certain add-ons) or using the Query module (hard to read, potentially slow), you can create a custom helper add-on for your website.

And, as an added bonus, Mijingo will be giving away a few copies of Low’s Building an ExpressionEngine Add-on video course.

Be sure to RSVP!

London EE Meetup: August 27th

I’m a little late getting this one posted but tomorrow (today!) is the Londoneers meetup at The Bell Pub.

This meetup features John Baxter on the topic [](Running EE on Vagrant with Puppet

The big man from Essex, John Baxter, will be giving us a low down on running EE on Vagrant using Puppet, plus how does he get his EE installs out of the box so quickly?

How do you deal with working local and them shifting to a production environment?

Toronto Meetup Tuesday June 18th

If you’re not in Seattle, you might be in Toronto. Well, it’s a good thing. The Toronto ExpressionEngine meetup takes place tomorrow June 18th at 6:31 (?) PM at The Office Pub on John Street.

I can speak from personal experience with this meetup. This is a great group of people and one that made me feel welcome in a cold, windy city 1,600 miles (2500 km) from home this past March. An excellent cast of characters who care a lot of about ExpressionEngine. If you’re in Toronto, you should attend.

Location and details are available at the Toronto-ee website.
