Meet the host, Edmund DelSol:

I am an electrical engineer by training, with extensive business leadership experience in telecommunications and information technology, including learning technologies. I now operate a workplace productivity agency and teach as a professor of business. I’m passionate about cycling and photography.

I am an avid Divi user and believe that a Divi group in Durham Municipality will represent a useful technology additional to [the] growing urban area. Together, we can build exposure for the platform, exert influence in multiple venues, and help to drive innovation and help to shape the technology direction for our city.

Updates from Existing Groups

We say this every year but Summer always poses some lull time with our meetups as humans leave town. And, if you’re from hotter climates, there’s a bit of hibernation happening as peeps stay indoors and in the air conditioning. Here at ET, we guide our groups on ways to engage during the dog days of summer. There are great ways to still have great meetups. See for yourself below!

For June, we had a great discussion about Child Themes. There were lots of greats questions that helped better clarify what child themes are and some practical use-cases of when they can come in really handy.
The bottom line though, child themes are a matter of preference. πŸ™‚

Next month, we will be doing a Q&A – you bring the questions, struggles, headaches and we’ll help provide you with some answers and relief.
