Jamie (@digitalchild) – WordPress user profile

Bio

I possess a wealth of experience in the WordPress domain. I am the founder of WC Vendors Marketplace, a leading open-source plugin designed for WooCommerce and WordPress. My enthusiasm for WordPress has led me to speak at numerous events, including WordCamps and local meetups. Additionally, I’ve co-organized meetups and actively engage with the WordPress community online, especially on Slack channels. Last year, I started volunteering as a subject-matter expert for the WordPress Training team and also contributed to various other training-related activities.

WordPress Origin Story

I started working with WordPress back in the b2Evolution days when I learned of the WordPress project. I started to build websites with WordPress 1.5 before we had custom post types, plugins were new and themes had just been introduced. Over the years I have solved a range of problems built on WordPress. These include online marketplaces, research platforms, staff training systems, intranets, dedicated apps and more.

Contributions

Jamie contributes 4 hours per week to the Training team.
