Well here we are, running on Wordpress.
Excuse our ‘minimalist’ look (I actually sort of like it so there are no plans to go too crazy with the design).
I went into this WP migration with the major goal of making upgrades as easy as possible. In that vein I am utilizing the Thematic Theme Framework so 99% of the ‘pdxphp’ theme is just a CSS stylesheet. Also I have created a simple plugin to make changes so to not ‘hack’ any WP files. So far so good.
Look for improvements to the Job Postings Section in the near future. If you would like to help with that effort, I’ll be posting the plugin code I created for that section soon, so you’ll be able to contribute at that point
I’ve exported the bulk of the meeting posts from the old site and imported them here. I’m also in the process of adding 301 redirects for some of the key old URLs.
Lastly, we are running the WPTouch plugin, so definitely check out the site on a mobile device, it looks quite good on my G1.

Oh, also I’ll be building a section that calls out the meeting schedule so it easy to see future and past meetings. The link should work for now: http://pdxphp.org/category/meetings/
Also, the old site is up at origins.pdxphp.org. I have all ‘posting’ turned off (i think? sorry spammers, it has been fun though).
cheers
Nice work Sam!
Looks great, Sam. Thanks for your hard work!
I am a huge Drupal fan – but hey – if WP works better for you Sam – then Awesome! I love it too.
Thanks for keeping up the group mission.
