    I am a marketing agency owner who has been hiring WordPress developers. I am less technical however, I wish to learn how to install WordPress and templates so I can better judge the time it takes to deploy a campaign. I also wish to begin working in WordPress from beginning to end myself.

    What is the best track for me in this dev conference? See you this week in SFO.

    Thanks, Jerri

      Hi Jerri. None of the sessions at Mission will be walking through how to install WordPress. Theming code sessions are on Saturday. Large installation case studies are on Friday. Tips and tricks for users are on Sunday. I would suggest reading the session descriptions as they are posted to decide which sessions you will be most comfortable attending.

    Do you have an actual agenda with times for when the speakers will be presenting? Thanks!

    Hi. I made the payment for Live Streaming but haven’t got the confirmation yet. Guess the system is overloaded 🙂
