Learn WordPress Basics

Facilitator: Teneshia La’Rae D.

WordPress is an open-source content management system written in PHP that allows you to manage it like a piece of software that’s built just to make it easy to create and edit your own websites. You can create new pages, make blog posts, update your website’s visual appearance, and more.

The main advantage of the WordPress platform is that you don’t need any coding skills to put your content online. It uses a database to store and organize all of your data, from the content in your posts and pages to your user accounts and site URLs, and uses a framework that handles everything.

When it comes to creating a new page on your site or a blog post, there’s little difference between the WordPress content editor and your typical desktop word processor. Type your text, add images, click “publish” and WordPress generates the HTML needed for your content to appear online.

Most importantly, WordPress is free to use; there are no setup fees or annual costs outside of hosting. With thousands of available themes and plugins, it’s widely considered one of the best ways for businesses to create a truly customized website.

Starting your own site can seem like a daunting task. Good News!; it doesn’t have to be so scary. In these workshops, I will teach you the basic skills you need for whatever website you are trying to build.
