Hi, I’ve dabbled around with Wordpress before the latest version. I know how to find themes, create pages, edit comments and I’ve played with a few plug-ins.
My friend wants me to update his website and he’s a musician. I’ve chosen to use a blog as the best platform and I like what I’ve seen from other musician blogs that were made with Wordpress.
So here are a few questions:
-
How can I create a page that shows the page links while it displays the latest blog posts?
-
What programming languages along with HTML/CSS will I typically deal with if I decide to download the wordpress installation and create a template from scratch?
-
Should I modify a template from Wordpress’ library to make things easier instead of creating my own?
-
What are the designing limitations of Wordpress compared to Squarespace (expensive!) and Ning? The original website is very artistic…uses photos, css, Flash.
