Several months ago, I received a very special invitation from @Isotta to embark on an equally extraordinary project: the Revival of WordPress Communities in Latin America. This call resonated deeply with me, awakening an unwavering enthusiasm and commitment to the revitalization of our WordPress ecosystem in the region.
In this post, we are delighted to present to you the progress and details of this significant project. From the initial planning to the concrete actions we have taken, we want to share with you the journey we have undertaken to revive and strengthen the WordPress communities in Latin America.
Main Objective
Reactivate and strengthen WordPress communities in Latin America to foster collaboration, mutual learning and active participation of members.
Specific Objectives
โ Increase active participation โ Create monthly interaction events โ Create strategic and collaborative alliances
Propose activities
Form collaborative team to lead the project
Translate important handbook material into Spanish
Prepare material: Course to become an organizer

This will be a video call, in which I will give the groupย challenging scenarios, and ask you to come up with ideas for solutions you would try.
My goal for these meetings will be to test whether this idea might help WordPress organizers feel more confident when organizing events or communities โ anyone, no matter what experience level you have in organizing, is welcome to join.
Iโll follow up as soon as possible with those who requested to join at the most popular times, and share a video link. If you canโt make it next week, donโt worry! This is just a quick โtest of concept,โ and if itโs successful, Iโll invite more people to help plan out a way to make this available to more people with more time to plan. ๐

If thereโs a question youโd like to see answered please share it in the comments or email me at support@wordcamp.org with the subject line Tuesday Trainings. Now onto this weekโs topic.
When can we start having meetupsMeetupMeetup groups are locally-organized groups that get together for face-to-face events on a regular basis (commonly once a month). Learn more about Meetups in our Meetup Organizer Handbook. in person again?
I know that many communities are anxious to get things back to normal. Or at least as back to normal as can be found in these trying times. But we can only get back to seeing one another in person when it is safe for us to do so.
There have been a lot of conversations around this and what stands out most strongly to me is that everyone is sharing the answer that they feel is right. When so many people have such heightened feelings on a topic it is often more challenging for an entire community to come together and agree. Iโm seeing and hearing a lot of frustration around this topic, and that is understandable. But mostly I am seeing people assuming good intent and working together to find whatโs right for our community at large, and that is wonderful.ย
Because there are some countries, states, cities, or areas whereย Covid-19 risk is very low, we see that there is an opportunity for those communities to gather together in a safe way. So while I canโt answer for all meetups in this post, I can tell you that weโre on our way to seeing one another in person once again. But only in locations in which it is allowed by local public health rules and that meet the program expectations shared in this Community Handbook page on returning to in person meetups.
If youโre curious if your group qualifies you can go through the in-person meetup decision checklist to learn if your group is eligible. If you feel that you are eligible youโre required to submit your form before you move forward with organizing. If you donโt meet the criteria thereโs no need for you to submit the form.
We qualify to proceed (with caution!!) to organize an in person meetupMeetupMeetup groups are locally-organized groups that get together for face-to-face events on a regular basis (commonly once a month). Learn more about Meetups in our Meetup Organizer Handbook.. Does that mean we HAVE TO?
Nope. It absolutely doesnโt mean you have to. This option is available because there are a few pockets of the world that seem to really have this thing under control with nearly no new infections. If groups in those areas would like to meet in a permitted, safe and cautious way we donโt want to stop them. But no one is required to switch back to in person meetups.
If your local conditions do qualify for in person meetups, please make sure you fill out the checklist form before you proceed, and keep all of the expectations and precautions shared in mind.
My meetup doesnโt qualify but thatโs okay, the meetup group two cities away is hosting an event. Iโll go to that.
For everyoneโs safety, Iโm going to have to ask you to refrain from attending any meetup event that is outside of your immediate, local meetup. The expectations weโve put into place do not account for people traveling from other areas to attend events. We ask that for the time being you only attend events in your own area.ย
Iโm so excited about seeing people! Does this mean we can have a WordCampWordCampWordCamps are casual, locally-organized conferences covering everything related to WordPress. They're one of the places where the WordPress community comes together to teach one another what theyโve learned throughout the year and share the joy. Learn more. in real life too?
Iโm excited to see people again too, but weโre not there yet. Meetups are traditionally much smaller and on an event by event basis, much easier to organize. They also present little financial risk if they must be cancelled. At this time weโre not approving any in-person WordCamps, contributor days, or other larger format events. Just the Meetups that fall into the expectations weโve shared with communities that would like to meet in person.
But how was this all decided?
Iโm so glad you asked. A lot of time, effort, and conversation went into this decision. And all the while we kept in mind a need to be morally, legally, and financially responsible about any decisions made for the future of the program. The conversation started with a post from current Community Team RepTeam RepA Team Rep is a person who represents the Make WordPress team to the rest of the project, make sure issues are raised and addressed as needed, and coordinates cross-team efforts.@sippis back in July of 2020. You can read his post here, and will also be able to find links to continuing posts in the comments.
I have another question!
I always love another question. If thereโs something you donโt feel was covered here or in the linked handbook or discussion threads please ask in comments so we can start a conversation about it.
Whatโs coming next with Tuesday Trainings?
Iโm taking a couple of weeks off to unwind, but I didnโt want to leave you all without something to learn on upcoming Tuesdays. Please be sure to join us the next three for Tuesday trainings posts from @kcristiano and a Tuesday Training discussion on March 16 with @harishanker! I canโt wait to see what theyโve shared when I return!

If you are a Meetup Organizer, please feel free to share the survey link with your co-organizers.
Hello Meetup Organizers!
Itโs time for the annual meetup organizer survey, and we have a bunch of other stuff to tell you about, too!ย
Organizer Survey
The annual survey is how we track progress in the meetup program. If your meetup group has multiple organizers, each organizer should fill in the survey, but please decide among your group who will be the main point of contact with WordPress Community SupportWordPress Community SupportWordPress Community Support PBC is a Public Benefit Corporation, created specifically to be the financial and legal support for WordCamps, WordPress Meetup groups, and any additional โofficialโ events organized within the WordPress Community Events program. in 2020 โ we ask for that information in the survey. Hereโs your organizer survey:
In order for your feedback to be included in the results, please complete the survey by 15 March, 2020!
Member Survey
Weโve recently shared the annual meetup program survey with all members. Weโve revised the questions and edited it down to a shorter survey that takes less than 3 minutes to complete. It would be great if you could mention it at your next event and encourage people to respond! In the email to members, weโve reminded them that all meetup group members are encouraged to plan events that interest them so that there are more things happening in each group without the primary organizers having to do more work. If members of your group offer to organize events, we hope you will encourage them and make sure they feel welcome on the organizing team!
Organizing Team
Speaking of the organizing team, itโs time for a round of clean-up on your meetup.com leadership team. If there are any organizers on your team who havenโt planned an event in 2019, please communicate with them about changing their role to Member so that people can see who is active and can help answer questions.ย
WordPress Global Community Sponsors for 2019
A big thank you to our 2019 global sponsors! Their generous support keeps the meetup program free for the whole community and helps to make sure ticket prices for WordCamps stay affordable.

* These sponsors support WordPress events worldwide.
Meetup Sponsorship
ย If a venue is donating space, it is appropriate to list them as the venue sponsor.
It is not appropriate to list any company as contributing to the meetup.com dues, since we pay those through the central account.
Companies providing refreshments or financial support to cover the cost of refreshments are appropriate to thank, but should be recognized on an even level with their support. Paying for snacks all year? SidebarSidebarA sidebar in WordPress is referred to a widget-ready area used by WordPress themes to display information that is not a part of the main content. It is not always a vertical column on the side. It can be a horizontal rectangle below or above the content area, footer, header, or any where in the theme. recognition is great. One-time sponsor? Leaving them listed as a sponsor all year doesnโt quite match; itโs better to thank them in the event listing for the event they are sponsoring.
Organizers of the meetup group and its events are volunteers, and should not be listing their businesses as sponsors unless they are providing a venue or financial support/refreshments like an outside company.ย
Venue Rental Costs
We encourage organizers to get free or donated space, but if your venue charges a fee, you can submit a request for payment, which we will review and let you know if that is something we can help cover. Keep in mind that the guideline for cost is about $5 USD per person. Venue rental costs are paid from the central budget. If youโd like to submit a payment request, you can do so here by completing the Meetup Venue Approval Request form.
Event Host Designation
This is a small thing, but sometimes meetup organizers set the โWordPressโ user as the event host for their meetup events. Please set the event organizer as the event host โ when WordPress is the event host, people try to ask us questions about the event that we canโt answer.

Tell us a bit about your group
Many Meetup groups are established vs new, at least a few years, some 10+ years
Covering a range of topics: beginners, advanced users, development
Active members are a small subset of overall membership
Comment: Thereโs an oft-cited model of community participation: 90/9/1. Out of your entire community group, 90% will be passive (lurkers); 9% will be active; and 1% will be very engaged regulars.
How big is your group?
Ranges from 100โs to 1000โs of total members
Average turnout ranges from 20-50 depending on the topic
Presentations attract more people than socials
Comment: 30 seems to be the sweet spot for a reasonably-sized meetup group, regardless of the total number of members registered in the meetup, nor those who RSVP for each event.
How often do you meet?
65% meet once a month
35% meet more than once a month
No respondents said less than once a month
Comment: Consistent, routine events are a must if you want to build a strong meetup group. An active meetup group should meet at least once a month. This consistency builds momentum that helps make future meetupsMeetupMeetup groups are locally-organized groups that get together for face-to-face events on a regular basis (commonly once a month). Learn more about Meetups in our Meetup Organizer Handbook. more likely to happen.
How do you promote your group?
Meetup.com is the primary method
Social media (Facebook & Twitter) and word-of-mouth
WordPress Dashboard, if part of the Chapter program
Comment: In general, it seems like meetup organizers donโt do a lot of outreach or promotion โ we rely on Meetup.com to bring members to us, as well as word-of-mouth referrals through existing group members. This could be a big opportunity for us to find new members.
Whatโs worked?
Consistency โ same day of the month, every month
Mixing it up โ different locations, times, appeals to different people
Involve the group โ planning, choosing topics, online groups
Setting topics in advance; focusing on peer/user support
Comment: Two things here. First, consistency leads to routine which leads to habit. But what works for some people wonโt work for others. Thatโs where options come into play: different days, different times, different formats, different topics, different locations.
Issues?
Finding locations/venues
Finding speakers/presenters
No-shows, low turnout vs RSVPs
Comment: Totally consistent with our experiences as organizers, and an ideal topic for our group brainstorming session on Friday morning.
Advice for new meetup organizers?
It takes time. Start small, persist, keep showing up
Donโt overthink/overcomplicate; have a structure/template
Plan in advance, get experts in as speakers
Have a team of committed co-organizers
Other advice?
Donโt try to do everything yourself; youโll burn out
Recognize other leaders, invite others to step up
Diversity and inclusion takes effort, but itโs worth it
Youโre growing a community, not just hosting a meetup
โฆ
Thatโs just an overview of what weโve heard through the survey. Weโll address all of these points, and much more, during the Grow Your Meetup! workshop at WordCamp US in the Community Room, Room 274.
Thanks again to everyone who participated in the survey!

There have always been some casual recommendationsย for how the WordPress logo should be incorporated into logos for WordCamps and WordPress chapter meetupsMeetupMeetup groups are locally-organized groups that get together for face-to-face events on a regular basis (commonly once a month). Learn more about Meetups in our Meetup Organizer Handbook., but weโve never really had an open discussion about it. Following, youโll find a proposal from Mel Choyce, Kjell Reigstad, Sarah Semark, Mark Uraine, and Tammie Lister for how the WordPress logo should be used for official events of the WordPress open sourceOpen SourceOpen Source denotes software for which the original source code is made freely available and may be redistributed and modified. Open Source **must be** delivered via a licensing model, see GPL. project. Please read through the guidelines, and share your feedback and concerns in a comment on this post.
The following pages provide some important context on the WordPress logo, logotype, and the WordPress trademarks
While you are free to include the WordPress logo, or reference the W, in your logo, you donโt need to do so.
Example:
The WordPress logo has two variants.
If you do use the WordPress logo, know that it comes in two variants: W Mark and Simplified
W MarkSimplified
Here are some examples of the variants in use:
Say โNo!โ to the Fauxgo.
If you are using the WordPress logo in your WordCampWordCampWordCamps are casual, locally-organized conferences covering everything related to WordPress. They're one of the places where the WordPress community comes together to teach one another what theyโve learned throughout the year and share the joy. Learn more. logo, please make sure you are using the correct WordPress logo.ย
The correct logo has a higher cap height, and rounded serifs:
Donโt change the logo.
Do not:
Remove the ring around the logo.
Cut or splice the logo.
Skew, distort, or add 3d effects to the logo.
Donโt use the Dashicons logo icon.
The Dashicons logo icon is specifically designed for use at smaller sizes; do not use it for your WordCamp logo. Instead, use the official logo files.
Color
Ensure that the logo has sufficient contrast.
Your logo should have sufficient color contrast to pass AA guidelines for text. You can check your design using a tool like Stark (for Sketch) or Logo Rank.
Design your logo in black & white first.
Designing your logo first in black & white is a good way to ensure that your logo will communicate effectively without color. We recommend designing your logo first in black and white, and then adding color near the end of the process.
RGB vs. CMYK
When designing your logo for digital devices, itโs good practice to use the RGB (red, green, blue) color model. When preparing your logo for print, use CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black). Screens differ from tangible paper products by emitting light instead of absorbing light. For this reason, RGB values work as additive colors for the screen and CMYK values work as subtractive colors for print.
Typography
Typography should be easily readable.
Your WordCamp name is one of the most important pieces of information, so make sure people can read it! Generally speaking, itโs best to use a relatively simple typeface without a lot of flourishes. This ensures that text is readable even at very small sizes, or when printed on a badge of which attendees may only catch a brief glimpse.
Avoid using Mrs Eaves.
Mrs Eaves is the WordPress brand typeface. Itโs best to avoid using it for your WordCamp to avoid confusion with the WordPress brand.
Inclusion
Consider a range of users when designing.
When designing your logo, think about users who may have trouble reading or parsing your logo. Ensure your text is readable and color contrast is sufficient. Itโs good practice to design your logo first in black and white, to ensure that those with color blindness are still able to understand your logo. (See also the color and typography sections.)
Ensure your logo is appropriate for all audiences.
A WordCamp is welcoming to everyone. Part of ensuring a safe, welcoming, and inclusive environment is ensuring that your logo (and other materials) are family-friendly. This means that logos should contain:
no sexually suggestive imagery
no profanity
nothing that would constitute implied or explicit exclusion of a group
no characterizations of a minority group in your area
Context and Formats
Ensure that your logo is recognizable in a wide range of contexts.ย
WordCamp logos typically appear in many different places: on top of websites, on shirts and merchandise, stickers, in social media, signage, etc. Ensure that your logo is adaptable enough to be recognizable and readable in all of these contexts. Your logo should be flexible enough to work when it appears on a giant presentation screen, but also when it appears in a tiny social media icon.ย ย
Provide the final logo in a variety of file formats for different uses.
The logo should be in a scalable vector format (Sketch, Figma, and Illustrator all produce vector graphics). The final file should also be available in the following formats:
.svg (preferred) or other open scalable graphics format (.eps)
.png (with a transparent background)
Provide the final logo in a variety of color formats.
To ensure maximum compatibility with different usage contexts, the recommended color formats for the logo are:
black & white
RGB (screen)
CMYK (print)
Pantone (print, optional)
Feedback?
Please share your thoughts on the proposed guidelines and how best to share them moving forward.ย
