    Here's a Doodle if anyone's interested! http://www.doodle.com/uuwnvpt5aienei5f
    • I would be interested depending on dates, might be worthwhile putting something on www.lanyrd.com/ which seems popular these days for meet ups.

      Thanks

          Hi I'm an modx user since evo and have only popped my head in the forum occasionally (maybe that's a good sign as to how intuitive it is?), so please tell me if I am intruding, but I would love to meet a few fellow Modxers.

          I work at an agency that's only a few minutes away in Spitalfields, so I guess if it is OK, can you count me in?

              Here's our notes from the meeting three of us had yesterday evening … it was small but fun! And we came up with some good ideas, I think:

              What do we want
              Help
              Evangelising
              Skill sharing
              Networking with bigger companies
              Talking through a snippet / presentations
              Bringing MODx to Europe!
              Meeting European user groups
              Sweden!
              Publishing company space, Holborn?
              Quarterly? Bi monthly?

              Talks ideas
              Examples of bigger sites
              National Gallery eg
              Ecommerce and modx Simplecart

              Why Modx for your business?
              Redesign / deploying a design
              Relevant Features
              ease of use
              Template variables
              Customisability
              Form customisability through User permissions

              Record presentations

              Tips:
              Maryscodingpad
              Marcos corner
              Modx rules
              Phpthumbof: really useful
              Add ons not always documented / recorded

              Frequency
              Every Quarter?
              About Feb or March

              Proposed date
              Tuesday in Feb

                One more update: I've set up a MODx London / SE list to help organise the meet ups:

                • Hey Folks,

                  Our friends at SoftLayer are interested in hosting an informal MODX meetup next week on the 29th of February or 1st of March in and around the Hammersmith area apparently. SoftLayer will be in town attending the Technology for Marketing and Advertising Confererence (http://www.t-f-m.co.uk/).

                  If you're interested in having a casual meetup with some beers and some MODX folks, we could uses some help finding a good location for 10-20 people. We'd also like to know if you have a preference of days.

                  It might be good for it to be on the Thursday for people coming in from out of town etc. [ed. note: smashingred last edited this post 12 years, 2 months ago.]

                  • You can count me in, it will be good to finally catch up with some MODx users in the UK face to face.

                    • I could use some a few days out of the country. It's either a 6hr drive or a 2hr drive + 1hr flight to get to London from here.

                      If we can make it worth the effort of getting there I would be interested to meet up with some folks smiley
