FAQ Using WordPress
- Add/Edit Posts and Pages
- This tutorial explains how to create new posts on your WordPress website.
First you need to log in your site e.g. yourdomain/wp-admin/ to get to the admin panel and go to Posts -> Add New.
On this page you will see the WordPress posts editor. The most important parts of this page are:
Post Title - enter the title of your post in this field. On your theme it will be shown above your content.
Post Content - you can use the WordPress WYSIWYG editor to add the actual content of your post. Note
that it has two tabs - Visual (use the editor to format your text, add images, create a template, hyperlinks
etc) and Text (add your HTML code directly for the more tech savvy).
You can also add a 'Feature image', which will help present your post by giving it a thumbnail image.
Once you enter the content of your first WordPress post, you need to Publish it. Publishing brings your
post to your actual website.
That's it! You can now go to the front page or your blog of your site to check out the newly created blog
post.
Creating pages has the exact same process, except you simply click 'Pages' in the left sidebar instead.
You might be wondering the difference of posts vs pages?
Posts are content entries listed in reverse chronological order on your blog's home page. Due to their
reverse chronological order, your posts are meant to be timely. Older posts are archived based on month
and year. As the post gets older, the deeper the user has to dig to find it. They're mainly to provide
ongoing informational updates.
Pages provide the fundamental information of your website and help create the template of your entire
website.
- Add a Testimonial
- This tutorial explains how to create new testimonials on your WordPress website.
First you need to log in your site e.g. yourdomain/wp-admin/ to get to the admin panel and go to 'Testimonails' -> Add New.
On this page you will see the WordPress testimonial editor. Where you can leave your review.
To include an image of the person or business logo, click 'Set featured image' on the right hand side.
Then simply click 'Publish' at the top. This will insert your new testimonial into your testimonial section.
