Default First Thread In This Topic

I've got two suggestions.
One I mentioned before. I think it would be a great idea to have someone that would offer live Word Press training let's say by webinar or something like that. Of course the teacher would be compensated for her/his time and knowledge.
Number two
It would be great if we had daily direct access to person or persons with enough skill to help us with our Word Press error messages and such. Again he/she would of course be compensated.
These two things being available to us would greatly expedite our Word Press abilities and assist us to move forward at a goodly clip.
I tried finding answers at Word Press dot org and it seemed like I was fishing for a minnow in the ocean. So now I'm studying HTML and am going to study XHTML, and maybe PHP. Whatever it takes. I also ordered "Word Press For Dummies & Word Press Complete. Boy am I good at blabbing. Yadyadya.

Hi,

I have WordPress for Dummies. It's ok. Haven't seen WP Complete but I see it's offered on Amazon, but the reviews weren't that good.

At this stage I wouldn't worry to much about xhtml, concentrate on html. There are differences but if you know html, xhtml will fall into place.

Do the online course here w3 school

W3Schools Online Web Tutorials

I would also learn CSS.

PHP? I would give that a miss if I were you. Unless of course you have a good understanding of programming. But for our purposes there is no need to learn it.

Okay good enough Kangaroo Jack.
I will just study HTML & CSS. I appreciate you taking the time to give me some great educational direction. Yes I just started studying at 3schools. That is a awesome free educational site. I love it.
