While I have created several tutorials on the custom features of WordPress for Toastmasters, often where club officers trying it out seem to get stuck is on the WordPress basics. This video shows how to customize your club home page and add other pages to your site, as well as blog posts, event posts, images, PDFs, and video.

This excerpt from a webinar on Jan. 20, 2016 (full replay here) shows how agenda items are represented in the WordPress editor and how to edit them – for example, to change the number of speaker and evaluator roles at a meeting. It starts out by showing the standard way you edit web pages and blog posts in WordPress before explaining how events meeting role signup works within the same framework.

Note: The process for setting up your standard meeting template is shown starting from the prompt at the top of the screen you would see on a new site. After initial setup, you would find all the event-oriented functions for setting up meetings or other calendar items located under RSVP Events on the administrator’s dashboard. That includes sub-menus for Event Templates and Agenda Setup.
