We had a solid meeting and covered a good bit of ground this week. You can view the full meeting notes in the Slack archive. A Slack account is required.
Primarily, we focused on 2 big items with additional announcements as noted in the agenda post.
Monthly theme review gatherings
After the success of this past weekend’s gathering, we’re going to continue having monthly shindigs/hootenannies for the team.
Next month’s shindig: Weekend of Oct. 1-2
Ambassador: @cristiano.zanca
We still need to decide on a focus for next month’s meeting. The following 2 ideas have been proposed:
- Compile a list of common theme issues from shindig and follow up on the Make Themes blog.
- Live SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/. The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at https://make.wordpress.org/chat/ mentoring from admins.
Subject tag limit
Because we’re seeing more and more themes adding upwards of all 9 subject tags, we decided on a limit of 3 subject tags per theme. This goes into effect immediately.
This is a temporary solution until we revisit tags in our big tags meeting in January where we might want to bring in new tags like multipurpose for themes not suited to 1-3 tags.
