Simple WordPress Theme Hacks – Online Webinar
Sept 29th at  6pm
Lucy Beer of WebTrainingWheels.com presents an online webinar for WordPress site owners who want to get more familiar with their theme! Ever clicked on the “Editor” menu and had the living daylights scared out of you by all that code?!  Maybe you’ve come across a plugin that wanted you to insert some code into your theme and you were afraid you’d break your site? Want to feel more in control of your WordPress theme files? This is the webinar for you! We’ll look under the hood of a WordPress theme and learn how to do some simple code manipulation. This will NOT turn you into a programmer! The goal is to make the code less scary, to show you some of the common WordPress template tags so that you can make sense of a theme, and to use a couple of simple examples to show how you can work with the code even if you are not a programmer. Working with the code directly can reduce the number of plugins you use, thereby speeding up your site. $15. Get all the details and register here:
