WordPress is the most powerful CMS (content management system) on the web and powers over 30% of all websites.
While this course won’t teach you how to build one, you will walk away with the knowledge you need in order to work with an existing WordPress website (editing posts, changing the menu, updating forms, etc.) and/or overcome your fear of WordPress enough to have a go and build one yourself!
In this 2 hour recorded workshop, you’ll learn…
