How to Run a Newspaper with WordPress
A WordCamp Montréal 2012 talk delivered six weeks before the recorded Toronto version, framed around the operational side of running a newspaper on WordPress — newspaper and magazine concepts, starter themes, advertising integration, and plugin recommendations for publications of any size.
Where and when
- Event: WordCamp Montréal 2012
- Date: August 18–19, 2012 (exact session day not confirmed)
- Venue: UQAM — Cœur des Sciences, Montréal, Québec, Canada
- Session page: montreal.wordcamp.org · talks
Watch or read
This Montréal session was not recorded. The sister talk delivered six weeks later at WordCamp Toronto 2012 was recorded — watch that recording for the closest available capture of the speaker’s argument from this period.
A 63-slide deck titled “Newspapers with WordPress” is published on SlideShare and aligns with the operational framing of the Montréal abstract (multisite, SEO for images, author branding, custom post types). The Toronto recording is the spoken-word version; the SlideShare deck is the slide-level archive of the same body of work.
The premise
From the published WordCamp Montréal 2012 talks listing:
“A complete overview of creating a newspaper website using WordPress. This presentation will cover common newspaper, and magazine concepts, starter themes, advertising integration, helpful plugins and solutions for newspapers from startups to national publications.”
