September is a very special month for all Harry Potter fans around the Globe. The date September 1st is circled with bright, sparkling colours in the calendar of every geek who calls himself a Potterhead \u2013 the official title, given to members of the Harry Potter fandom. And guess what? When the date finally came this year, everyone at our WordPress Agency for Development<\/a> started the month by greeting one another with \u201cHappy Back to Hogwarts Day!\u201d<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re thinking \u201cGee, these guys really are THAT obsessed with pop culture\u201d, you\u2019ll be totally right. We\u2019re the geeks of the WordPress community<\/strong> and we have absolutely no shame in professing our love for all fantasy things. Books<\/a>, comics, movies \u2013 you name it, we love it all. Harry Potter, in particular, holds a very dear place in our hearts as most of us have practically grown with the books and their lovely film adaptations.<\/p>\n

By the way, if you ever meet some of the WordPress developers or content creators from Vipe Studio you can definitely expect us to ask you \u201cWhat\u2019s your Hogwarts house?\u201d<\/strong>. You know, some people ask for zodiac signs while others care more about Hogwarts houses. It is what it is.<\/p>\n

Oh, and it\u2019s very important to note that we don\u2019t judge people based on their Hogwarts house \u2013 we love them all and we have proud representatives from every house working at Vipe (for example, the author of this article is a fellow Slytherin \u2013 Hi, and no, I don\u2019t kill people in my basement for fun).<\/p>\n

So, with September being Back to Hogwarts month our WordPress development agency really wanted to do something special and celebrate alongside our blog\u2019s readership. This is why, at the very end of this month, we\u2019re playing a game of \u201cWhat if\u2026?\u201d<\/strong> (Marvel fans, we see you, give us a high five…or a follow) and we\u2019re inviting you to ponder the question \u201cWhat if WordPress was taught in Muggle Studies?\u201d together with us.<\/p>\n

Without further ado \u2013 wands at the ready and let the magic begin. Hold tight because we\u2019re taking the Hogwarts Express from Platform 9\u00be<\/strong> and we\u2019re going back to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry! (This article goes especially well with butterbeer and chocolate frogs so we strongly recommend you grab a magical treat of your choice to enjoy while you\u2019re reading.)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Back to Hogwarts With Vipe Studio<\/h2>\n

Our WordPress development company loves everything about Hogwarts, and honestly what\u2019s not to love?! It\u2019s a majestic castle in which you\u2019re taught how to do magic. Yes, please, sign us up, send us our acceptance letters or whatever \u2013 just take us! We can only imagine the feeling of walking down the corridors and exploring the many secrets<\/strong> that the castle hides.<\/p>\n

Also, Hogwarts during the autumn<\/a> season? What a dream! We can already hear the sound of dry crackling leaves under our feet, just by closing our eyes. But we\u2019re not only about the aesthetic side of things. C\u2019mon, we\u2019re WordPress developers, which means that we\u2019re total nerds<\/strong> and we\u2019re crazy about learning…stuff.<\/p>\n

This is why it is very hard for us to choose just one favourite subject that is taught at Hogwarts. Charms, Defence Against the Dark Arts, Potions, Transfiguration \u2013 the list goes on and on. We\u2019d be happy to learn ALL of it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

However, there is one subject at Hogwarts that doesn\u2019t spark the biggest excitement when people hear about it and that\u2019s Muggle Studies<\/strong>. This is not at all surprising because we, ourselves, are Muggles (non-magic folks). We know the human world well enough so there\u2019s absolutely no point in studying basic things that we\u2019re already aware of. Right?<\/p>\n

Not so quick. Our WordPress Agency for Development has an idea of how to make Muggle Studies a lot more interesting and challenging for the students of Hogwarts. Just teach them about WordPress website development<\/a>! Duh!<\/strong> It\u2019s so obvious, we can\u2019t believe J. K. Rowling hasn\u2019t thought of that herself. A total miss, if you ask us.<\/p>\n

So before we theorize what would it be if WordPress was taught in Muggle Studies, it is probably a good idea to tell you a little bit more about the subject itself. This way you\u2019ll be able to imagine a much clearer context in which we want to put WordPress website development.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

What Is Muggle Studies?<\/h2>\n

So what exactly is Muggle Studies? Well, this is an elective class and part of the non-magical studies curriculum at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. If you were to enrol in this class you would have studied things such as the history and daily lives of Muggles.<\/p>\n

As it turns out, the magical world takes some interest in understanding how we live without magic<\/strong> and use electricity, technology and science instead. Our WordPress development agency actually salutes this. Yes, magic is super cool, but we haven\u2019t heard of a wizard from the Harry Potter universe that has built a rocket and gone to space. We totally rock, too!<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what Percy Weasley had to say about Muggle Studies in the books:<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople say Muggle Studies is a soft option, but I personally think wizards should have a thorough understanding of the non-magical community, particularly if they\u2019re thinking of working in close contact with them \u2014 look at my father, he has to deal with Muggle business all the time.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Tell them, Percy! A \u201csoft option\u201d?! Just wait until our WordPress developers<\/a> turn this class into a web development rollercoaster \u2013 it\u2019s going to be wild. One known essay topic for this subject was \u201cExplain Why Muggles Need Electricity\u201d. Bo-ring!<\/strong> We\u2019ll be turning that into \u201cExplain Why WordPress Is the Best CMS\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Muggle Studies is an optional subject, taught from the third year to the seventh. If you take this class you\u2019ll have both an O.W.L. and a N.E.W.T. exam. The subject also has practical lessons and exam sections.<\/p>\n

Another important thing about Muggle Studies that our WordPress development company wants to tell you is that there is a pamphlet titled \u201cSo You Think You\u2019d Like to Work In Muggle Relations?\u201d. This pamphlet is given to fifth-year students at Hogwarts during Careers Advice. It stated that jobs involved with Muggle communication only required an O.W.L. in Muggle Studies, along with an enthusiastic attitude<\/strong> (YAY!).<\/p>\n

Ok, but what about the Internet? After all, this is an integral part of our everyday lives. Do Hogwarts students know about it, have they ever tried using it? Actually, the answer to both questions is \u201cYes…probably\u201d<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Our WordPress Agency for Development believes that wizards have used the Internet as part of their research into Muggle Studies. However, it is a known fact that this technology is otherwise scarcely used by the magical community.<\/p>\n

Are you interested in where exactly Muggle Studies is taught? Well, the classes take place in a classroom that is located on the first floor of the castle. You can access it through a showroom displaying Muggle artefacts. Pretty neat.<\/p>\n

Ok, so now that you already know what Muggle Studies is, we think it\u2019s time that we introduce you to our plan<\/strong> of adding some WordPress awesomeness to it. We are absolutely positive that WordPress website development<\/a> deserves to be taught in this class because WordPress developers are basically the wizards of the Internet. Raise your hand (or your wand) if you agree with us!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

WordPress in Hogwarts…Wait, What?!<\/h2>\n

Do you remember how Arthur Weasley is fascinated by simple human inventions like the rubber duck<\/strong> and is wondering what its function might be? Now imagine what would happen if we tell wizards all about WordPress website development and how they can build their own sites from scratch.<\/p>\n

\u201cHello, dear students and welcome to Muggle Studies! This year we have some very special guests. It is with the highest pleasure that I present to you the WordPress developers from Vipe Studio<\/strong> who are going to tell you all about the Internet and teach you how to build your own websites<\/a> using WordPress \u2013 one of muggles\u2019 finest creations! Let\u2019s begin!\u201d<\/p>\n

Their minds will be absolutely blown if you ask us. You might be wondering \u201cWhy the heck would wizards need their own websites, what\u2019s the point?\u201d. Well, the folks at our WordPress development agency think that the relations between the magic world and our own are highly understated<\/strong> in the Harry Potter universe.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Do you honestly believe that a wizard who is at least slightly aware of the Internet won\u2019t try to learn to work with it and use it for their benefit? Man, these people can make all kinds of magical stuff that could be sold! Like, take potions for example. We don\u2019t mean anything crazy like love potions but something that cures a runny nose or a bruised elbow?<\/p>\n

Make a nice packaging for that, create a WooCommerce<\/a> online store and you suddenly have your own business<\/a>. Our WordPress development company is aware that there are probably regulations that prohibit wizards from selling anything to Muggles but c\u2019mon! Can you be 100% sure<\/strong> that something you bought on the Internet that worked like magic (pun intended) wasn\u2019t sold to you by an actual wizard who once studied WordPress website development at Hogwarts? Of course, you can\u2019t be certain!<\/p>\n

What\u2019s more, you can\u2019t tell us that there won\u2019t be students at Hogwarts who aren\u2019t going to be keen on the idea of becoming bloggers. Blogging throughout your school years can be a real creative outlet and it can be so much fun! We can already see a wizarding community<\/strong> of WordPress bloggers who meet monthly to discuss their blogs.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

There won\u2019t be a shortage of blog<\/a> niches to choose from, too. We imagine that \u201cPotions\u201d will be a pretty popular one as well as \u201cQuidditch\u201d. So the plan of our WordPress Agency for Development is to guest-teach a few classes in Muggle Studies and show young wizards how to create websites and blogs<\/a> using the best CMS known to the muggle world.<\/p>\n

Look, we\u2019re not saying that it will be easy. We will probably be met with some weird looks at first but we\u2019re sure that we can turn any Hogwarts student into a WordPress enthusiast. After all, coding is just like magic<\/strong>…kind of…sort of. We actually don\u2019t even need to push it that far \u2013 we\u2019re just going to tell them that they will be tech-wizards (pun intended again), that should do it.<\/p>\n

Oh, another thing that our WordPress development agency is curious about is how students from the four different houses will handle the studying of WordPress. You know how each house has its own specific traits<\/strong>, right? Let\u2019s have some fun and theorize what their reactions will be!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

1. Gryffindors Studying WordPress<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Gryffindor\u2019s main values include bravery, helping others, and chivalry. Our WordPress development company thinks that these will be the students who are definitely going to jump straight into the deep unknowns<\/strong> of WordPress website development.<\/p>\n

They will also be the first ones to make a computer explode (Seamus Finnigan, we\u2019re looking at you), break a keyboard or simply throw a laptop out of the window because they\u2019ve had enough. The WordPress developers from Vipe Studio can probably relate, though, as they understand better than anyone how challenging web development can sometimes be.<\/p>\n

In the end, all will be well for Gryffindors. They can be a bit short-tempered but we also believe that they can tackle any job, given their natural talents<\/strong> (especially if they have someone as gifted as Hermione Granger in their class).<\/p>\n

2. Hufflepuffs Studying WordPress<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The house of Hufflepuff values hard work, patience, loyalty, and fair play. Our WordPress Agency for Development can definitely see someone from that house becoming a true WordPress wizard.<\/p>\n

Hufflepuffs are oftentimes underestimated because of their more quiet demeanour<\/strong> but their hard-working nature combined with their patience will certainly help them to understand the more in-depth aspects of WordPress.<\/p>\n

And who knows? A Hufflepuff might even get an invitation for an internship at our WordPress development agency. We really appreciate the diligence<\/strong> with which these \u201cbadgers\u201d do everything they put their mind to.<\/p>\n

3. Ravenclaws Studying WordPress<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Ravenclaws are known for their intelligence, knowledge, planning ahead, and wit. These are the students that are going to dive really deep into all the technical details<\/strong> surrounding WordPress website development.<\/p>\n

Ravenclaws will be the first to get their hands on the most difficult books about WordPress and someone from their house will probably hit a Gryffindor with \u201cWordPress for Dummies\u201d<\/strong> on the head.<\/p>\n

4. Slytherins Studying WordPress<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Slytherin house values traits such as ambition, cunningness, heritage, and resourcefulness. This means that the students from this house won\u2019t spare any efforts to impress the WordPress developers from Vipe Studio.<\/p>\n

Their ambition and their resourcefulness will drive them to any lengths as long as they get the Number 1 spot<\/strong>. We advise the other houses to watch out! We\u2019re talking about some serious competition here!<\/p>\n

Slytherins might seem a little arrogant at times but our WordPress development company believes that they can take great interest in WordPress website development as long as they are motivated that they\u2019re doing something worth it<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s Teach Wizards Some WordPress Magic!<\/h2>\n

So that was it for today\u2019s article. Our WordPress Agency for Development hopes that we managed to bring a smile to your face, especially if you\u2019re a fellow Potterhead like us. We think that teaching WordPress website development<\/a> as part of the Muggle Studies class at Hogwarts is a totally awesome idea that should be executed as soon as possible.<\/p>\n

Honestly, we have it all figured out. Our CEO<\/strong>, Ivan, is absolutely ready to guest-teach WordPress at Hogwarts and everyone else at Vipe Studio is going to assist him. If anyone from Hogwarts\u2019 Board of Governors is reading this, please contact us by sending an owl so we can arrange all the details. Trust us, you won\u2019t regret it.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s keep the conversation going in the comment section down below! Tell us what is your Hogwarts house and who is your favourite character<\/strong> from Harry Potter? Don\u2019t forget that you can count on our geeky WordPress development agency to build you the most magical website. We\u2019re here for you. Always.<\/p>\n
