New training videos for self-hosted WordPress users.
I’m extremely pleased to announce the release of my latest online training material for Lynda.com: Self-Hosting a WordPress Site.
From the official course description:
In Self-Hosting a WordPress Site, author and avid blogger Maria Langer shows how a blog can be customized to make it stand out in the digital crowd. Maria walks WordPress users—from casual bloggers to seasoned pros—through the steps to making a blog truly unique. This course goes beyond the basics, like setting a standard theme, and demonstrates such advanced techniques as incorporating CSS, PHP, and HTML.
Topics Include:
• Installing WordPress on any ISP
• Touring a WordPress CMS site
• Understanding all the content creation options
• Creating a customized look with PHP and CSS changes
• Using plug-ins to add features
• Setting options for user accounts
Remember: if you have a Lynda.com membership, you can view all of these videos — and any other video in the library — for free. You don’t pay per title; you pay by the month or year. This is an excellent value for anyone interested in learning lots of new software and topics without spending a fortune on books, one-on-one training, or training videos. Give it a try!
I am in the process of follwing WordPress.com 2.7 Essential Training on Lynda.com. I just want to congratulate you on an excellent training program. I am new to Lynda.com (and WordPress!) and your video is an impressive first start! Self-hosting a WordPress site is next on my list! Thank you!
Thanks very much for your kind words. I think the Lynda.com courses are a great deal for anyone interested in learning software. Glad you like my course.
