WordPress has all this stuff covered really well, so rather than reinvent the wheel, I’ll point you there.
Overview of WordPress, how it works, how to install it, and basic usage. Most of this we can skip.
If you ever want to install it on your own server, you will need the Installing WordPress helpsheets! Super critical. We should briefly discuss Roles.
My hope is to get through this quickly. How to make posts, pages, etc.
This is all the fun stuff. Plugins, widgets and themes. We’ll start to play with these today.
We’ll be digging into some of the other topics covered at the WordPress Support page, including administration and advanced topics eventually, but you can check them out whenever you want.
