Workshop and Time:
Painless iThemes Security – Sunday, October 1 at 1:30 pm
Workshop idea: iThemes Security is one of the best security plugins available today to quickly and easily secure a WordPress website. However, if it is not set up correctly it can also cause your site to break or overload shared server resources. In this workshop, I will teach students how to use the iThemes Security plugin to secure websites, with minimal pain. We will install the plugin and discuss the pros and cons of each feature and why each should or should not be used. By the end of this workshop, students will be able to install iThemes Security on any site without negative results.
