Getting Comfortable with WordPress is planned as a full day workshop for beginners in the WordPress community.
Here’s the story about who we think should come:
Somebody built you a WordPress site and then left you in the lurch to fend for yourself. Maybe they told you how to add content, use headings, and add images. But you forgot pretty quickly. And then you started hearing about this “Gutenberg thing.” In the five sessions today, we’ll get you in place to make the most progress in your mission to love WordPress.
Gottfried Benn said, “Whoever wants to understand much must play much.” So you’ll get the most bang for your buck by bringing your WIFI enabled laptop. No other connection is required. Each participant will get a clean installation of WordPress to play with. (We don’t want anybody messing up a live site!) YOU’ll step thru all the basic stuff in the order in which you use it.
Over the course of the day we’ll cover general terminology, what’s in the admin sidebar, the customizer, settings and tools, the new Gutenberg editing screen, media management (that’s images and other files), and plugins and widgets.
