WordPress Plugins: Syndicate Press & Postie

wordpressAt the IEEE-LAC meeting on Saturday, June 8, 2013 the use and features of two WordPress plugins were presented to the audience.  These two plugins further enhance the LAC website by (1) creating a centralized location to view the announcements/events from the IEEE Region 6 website and (2) creating the ability for WordPress posts to be emailed and then to be automatically online without intervention by the local webmaster.  The plugins are both widely used by the WordPress community and have high ratings.

A PowerPoint presentation was prepared and given by Tom Snyder from the IEEE Foothill section on these plugins.  For the convenience of anyone else who would like to know more the presentation has been converted into a PDF file that is available for downloading.
