👋 Hey, there!
🙌 Welcome to WordPress Meetups in Lahore
WordPress empowers more than 26% of the entire internet. This is an active group for all the WordPress specific Meetups in Lahore. It is supported by the WordPress foundation and the community itself.
🤔 Meetup groups are locally-organized groups that get together for face-to-face events on a regular basis (commonly once a month). Anything that brings together 2 or more people to share their WordPress experiences counts — there’s no minimum number of attendees or required format.
⚡�? Lahore is a city of passionate people! We have a bunch of meetup groups where folks like developers, designers, bloggers, marketers, IT guys; literally, anyone connected to the web participates and talks about all things WordPress.

👉 COC & Good-faith RULES:
We want the local community to have the best of everything. A few good-faith rules that were created by a group of volunteer meetup organizers apply:
✔︎ Meetups are for the benefit of the WordPress community as a whole, not specific businesses or individuals.
✔︎ Membership in the local meetup group is open to all who wish to join, regardless of ability, skill, financial status or any other criteria.
✔︎ Meetups are volunteer-run with volunteer speakers. In cases where a modest attendance fee might be necessary, this fee should only cover the costs of the meetup and shouldn’t be used to pay speakers or organizers.
✔︎ Meetup groups allow events to be organized by any reliable/trusted member of the community.
✔︎ Meetups are welcoming places where everyone works to foster an accepting environment which is free of discrimination, incitement to violence, promotion of hate, and general jerk-like behavior.
✔︎ All actions taken as an event organizer are with the best interest of the community in mind.
✔︎ WordPress owns this meetup.com account, and everyone running events is on equal footing.
✔︎ We ask that any member of the group be allowed to organize events (this is a setting in group tools) rather than the organizers acting as gatekeepers. If someone wants to organize a Saturday morning WordPress coffee shop get-together that only 5 people attend and you want to organize a more formal presentation for 80 people, both of those are valued by us. The more people getting together and connecting to talk about WordPress, the better, and having only a few people organize events automatically limits their number and scope. It’s definitely a change — it goes from “This is my group�? to “This is a community group I’m a leader in�? and we won’t lie, it does require a shift in thinking for groups that have only allowed one or two people to organize events. That said, that shift — for WP meetups to be community groups where everyone can organize events without gatekeepers — is what we’re going for. So you’d be responsible for focus and consistency in your own event series, but not for others (though hopefully anyone choosing to organize would talk with other organizers and learn from their experiences).
