(Para Português visita a Dia de Ajuda e de Contribuição)
The Help and Contributors Day will take place on May 17, 2024.
A project like WordPress, community-driven and open source, thrives on the collaboration of people from all over the world, in the most diverse areas: programmers, designers, translators, project managers, content creators, and much more.
Moreover, this year we are introducing the new Help space!
This new area is an opportunity for any community member to offer or receive help on various WordPress topics, promoting an environment of collaboration and sharing.

Who can participate?
Everyone!
If you have used WordPress in any way, you certainly have something to contribute. From technical tasks like testing and reporting bugs, to developing plugins or themes, to non-technical activities like translating WordPress or improving the documentation. There is always something for everyone.
If it’s your first time contributing, don’t worry! We are here to guide you.
What do you need to bring?
- Your laptop to work on your tasks.
- Good spirits for a productive and fun day.
We also recommend that you sign up on:
- wordpress.org
- wp-portugal.slack.com for doubts with the Portuguese community.
- wordpress.slack.com for direct contact with the various WordPress teams.
Choose Your Team
In each formed team, there will be someone responsible to help as needed, but we count on everyone’s experience and knowledge.
Core: Ideal for those with programming knowledge. Here, you can contribute by writing new code, updating existing code, or fixing bugs. There are tasks for all experience levels.
Design: If you have a passion for UX and design, this is the right team for you. You will work on mockups, design, and user testing.
Polyglots: Help make WordPress accessible in more languages by translating not only the core but also themes and plugins. Another new thing this year, you can enroll in this link to ensure your contributions are accounted for during this event, so please click the “Attend Event” button.
Themes: For those who like to create and optimize themes. Join and contribute to the diversity of the WordPress repository.
And remember, the Help space is always open for knowledge exchange and mutual support.
The atmosphere on this day is very relaxed, and great for socializing and exchanging ideas. You don’t need to be in front of the computer all the time! If you think you can contribute in more ways, change teams. All help is welcome.
At the end of the day, the team results will be presented.
