Tickets announcement

We have one announcement today regarding tickets. As organizers, we decided that releasing extra tickets from the previously announced 250, would considerably complicate things from the organizational perspective. Because of that and the fact that we still have enough tickets left for anyone that wish to attend WordCamp Croatia, we won’t be adding any extra tickets.

In the meantime, we published the full schedule (including some workshops on Friday) and announced all the speakers. We also published thorough information for attendees and we’ll update it with more information soon. Looking forward to seeing you all in Rijeka for our first WordCamp Croatia.

And yes, with Autotrans (our Travel Partner) we arranged a discount of up to 35% for everyone who will be traveling to Rijeka by bus.

Informacije o kartama

Danas imamo jednu objavu vezanu za karte. Kao organizatori, odlučili smo da nećemo u prodaju puštati dodatne karte za WordCamp Croatia zato što bi nam to predstavljalo prilično velik organizacijski problem. U prilog tome govori i to da je još uvijek ostalo dovoljno karata za sve koji planiraju doći u Rijeku na prvi WordCamp Croatia.

U međuvremenu, objavili smo kompletan raspored (uključujući i radionice u petak, koje su otvorene za sve, bez obzira dolazite li na WordCamp ili ne). Također, možete vidjeti tko sve predaje na WordCampu (imamo zaista kvalitetnih predavača), a objavili smo i informacije za posjetitelje koje ćemo povremeno nadopunjavati s novim informacijama.

I da ne zaboravimo, u suradnji s Autotransom (našim Travel Partnerom), osigurali smo i popust do 35% za sve vas koji u Rijeku planirate doći autobusom.

Get inspired by stories from our speakers at the panel “Working With WordPress”

How can we work with WordPress from our home, our country. The real question is – “can we work with WordPress and make a living out of it, work with worldwide clients and what do we need to do it?”. We will discuss this in our panel “Working With WordPress” where we will here different stories from Croatia, Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina and with a perspective from Daniel Pataki, editor on Smashing Magazine, who lives in Hungary.

People living in Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro and even Slovenia often think of themselves as difficult to work with worldwide clients. Thankfully, this image that we put into our heads is changing every day and we want to change it a bit more.

Our panelists will discuss their paths of working with WordPress and what impact WordPress had on their lives. Continue reading Get inspired by stories from our speakers at the panel “Working With WordPress”
