WordPress Design for Beginners: Customizing Themes

Posted on by

This year at WordCamp, we are splitting up the beginners day into three workshops, one of the workshops will be the WordPress Design for Beginners.

The WordPress platform is a magnet for those who want to take matters into their own hands, who want complete control over their websites and want to be independent in running them. WordPress does make it really easy to completely customize a website. If you have a bit of knowledge of HTML and CSS, there is nothing you can’t change.

We’ll cover CSS, explain hex codes vs rgb vs cmyk, discuss dpi/ppi, and then use that knowledge to walk through a theme customization.

This year at WordCamp, we are splitting up the beginners day into three workshops, one of the workshops will be for people getting started with WordPress.

If you’ve heard about WordPress but didn’t know where to start, or tried to get started and became overwhelmed, now you have an opportunity to move forward with a guiding hand.

From the start of the day to the end, we will will guide you through the process of using WordPress. You will be getting around the dashboard, adding text, images and extra functionality on an actual site that we set up for you that you can continue to use after WordCamp. We will have lots of volunteers on hand to help should you need a little extra attention.

Bring your laptop and we will have a new WordPress site setup for each of you ready to go.
