JCCAA Web WordPress Training Class 4/6/2024

Posted on by

由 Website Committee John Huang (黃志強) 發起, 4/6 星期六有10位來自不同校友會代表參加 Web WordPress 操作入門課程. 參與會員們帶著自己的筆記型電腦, 跟著 John Huang 精心設計的課程, 一個步驟接著一個步驟, 學習如何用 WordPress 在 JCCAA 網站發布活動訊息, 包括如何作文字編輯, 加入照片/影片及其他網站連結 (如YouTube) 等等. John 老師深入簡出詳細的說明, 加上有小幫手第二副會長 June Chou 從旁協助大家, 新手們在短短一個半小時就學會初步操作. 課程中 WordPress Server 有 Crash 凍結的現象, 校友會員們開玩笑說: 可能是因為新手菜鳥太多, 同時間在同一個平台操作, Web Server 應接不暇, 過度運轉, 轉不動了！約十分鐘後，Web Server 又自動恢復。

會長戴珮青課程結束後表示: “謝謝John 老師為大家上了一堂 WordPress 使用操作的課, 也謝謝所有來參加講習的會員朋友們, 很歡迎各校友會利用 JCCAA 的網站來發布宣傳校友會的活動”. 第一副會長辜千慈, 則為大家建立了群組, 希望會員們繼續切磋學習!
