Learning PHP and Wordpress
Well I decided nearly 2 weeks ago to move away from moveable type. Now while this was something of a drastic move, I knew that sooner or later I would have to do this, since no development was happening past 2.64a that didn’t cost an extortionate amount. So having scoped out all the alternatives as explained in this post here I now needed to learn how to use Wordpress tags, and php. Playing just a bit with it all I’ve learnt a great deal in a very small amount of time. So what I’m writing now my journey through the world of php and wordpress. The idea is to get a resource for all newbies like myself that have to wade through hundreds of post trying to know where to start. I’ll be able to make ‘in hindsight’ type comments and hopefully new people to Wordpress will have a point of reference.
So a new category is created, and a new learning resource is about to be built one brick at a time. Hopefully I’ll have a semblance of mastering php by the end of this ordeal that could very well take 3 months, but then again I’m not really in that much of a hurry.
