How to contribute to WordPress by just being helpful

If you’re the type of person who likes to help others, then one of the least complicated ways you can contribute to WordPress is helping out in the support forums. Every day WordPress users from all over the world post questions in the WordPress support forums, with topics ranging from first time installation problems all the way to plugin and theme errors. All you need to help out in the forums, is a local WordPress installation to test out the problem, and a WordPress.org profile in order to be able to reply to the forum thread. In this online workshop, we’ll take a look at how the support forums work, how to find topics to reply to, and maybe even help troubleshoot and reply to a few forum threads.
