The Big Red Button: Stress Free WordPress Deployments

Speaker: Jonathan Johnson

Moving code into a live environment comes with its share of stresses, and tends to begin to look like a big red button that you should press as little as possible and avoid if at all possible.

Jonathan will present Crowd Favorite’s method for moving code into production in a way that minimizes these stresses using automation and open source tools.

He’ll outline the downfalls of common deployment strategies like FTP, and contrast it with a how-to example using Capistrano and Crowd Favorite’s WordPress-specific Capistrano plugin, ‘capistrano-wp’.
