Breakout Room 1

A brief introduction to Backdrop CMS including:-
What is Backdrop CMS
Who is Backdrop CMS for
The benefits of Backdrop CMS

A demonstration of how to install Backdrop CMS on shared hosting including One-Click Installs and installing via FTP.

A demonstration of some of the features of Backdrop CMS.

This presentation is geared towards people new to Backdrop CMS who do not have a great deal of experience with building websites.

At Triplo, we've been getting more and more specific Google Analytics requests and we're trying to increase our level of expertise. We're happy to share the limited knowledge we have, but are hoping that others will bring their own experiences and lessons learned to share with us. 

Some of the questions we'd like to see addressed:

We are looking for 4-8 folks to give a 5 minute demonstrations of their favorite Backdrop module OR a module that they think is underappreciated. We'll get through as many modules as we can in our allocated time. 

You don't need a prepared presentation. Feel free to improvise. But, only 5 minutes per module. We'll save time at the end for discussion and questions.

Modules that we have scheduled so far:

In our three previous iterations of Backdrop LIVE core committer, Nate Lampton, walked through recent additions to Backdrop Core and talked about some of the new features in the pipeline. 

This was also a chance for anyone else to ask questions or suggest feature that they would like to see prioritized. 

Let's do it again. 

Erik Wesselius will share his experiences moving a relatively simple Wordpress website to Backdrop CMS.

If you have any experiences migrating data from Wordpress to Backdrop, please bring them along and share. 

This is a welcome session for folks who are new to Backdrop LIVE or who just want to come and hang out with us. 

We'll be talking about the format of Backdrop LIVE and how to get the most out of your participation. Use this time to test out your Zoom connection and ask any questions you have about the event (or about Backdrop CMS). 

Feel free to post questions or ideas for this discussion in the comments. 

Should we do a live module port togehter?

Do you think we can get this one done in an hour?
