WordPress Information

Here are links and information for WordPress  you might find useful.

Most of the websites I build are WordPress, and then most of those WordPress themes are “Divi” themes, which is a module/ visual builder, also very customizable (see below Drag and Drop builders). “Divi” also comes as a plugin, so it can be used on sections of the site that where a module builder would be useful. This is a paid theme/plugin but very reasonable, also for this payment there are other themes and plugins you could choose. If you want to know more: Divi Theme Link

How to Update Your PHP Version to Keep in Line with WordPress Recommendations

When a WordPress website is loaded, it runs on code. Once upon a time, that code was strictly HTML. Now, it’s a few different things, typically CSS, HTML and JavaScript.

When it comes to WordPress, the programming language PHP is what’s really running the show. You’ll find PHP in everything from your WordPress dashboard (back end) to your website page templates (front end). PHP is also in your plugins, your theme… basically, your website doesn’t exist without it.

Appearances

The various Appearance menus allow you to change how your site looks and behaves. Depending on the theme that your site is running, will depend on how much or how little you will be able to modify your site in this menu. Below are the basic items you will see in appearances, but again depending on your theme there might be many more option under this menu

Depending on your theme, this part can look very different – these are just same basic pointers

You can work with menus from within “Customize”  or scroll lower in Appearances and use the menu tab there…I actually find this one easier.

Plugins


Here is some basic information about plugins.

You name what you want –  extra abilities or to fine tune your site, and there will be a plugin in for it, just go to “plugins”, choose “add new” and type a keyword or two in the search plugin bar, and the relevant plugins will show up.
