WordPress User Manual for Beginners
4. Adding and Editing Content
Once the website is clearly structured, your content becomes the most important
thing. WordPress provides a number of tools – for editing, and for image
management. It allows you to easily manage your content with a familiar editing
interface. You don’t need to learn HTML – just the skills you’ve already acquired
using word processors like Microsoft Word.
4.1 Formatting text using the rich editor
You can easily enter format text using the rich editor if you're familiar with any word
processing packages.Let's create a news article – just go to Write and then Post
(you can also use the editor like this for writing pages). As you can see from the
buttons, it’s possible to format text in a number of ways using the buttons and they’ll
be familiar to any user of word processor software. You can also extend the size of
the box by dragging on the bottom right of it. Alternatively, edit your preferences.
IMPORTANT: Cutting and Pasting into the editor from applications like Word is
not recommended. Sadly, Word tries to be helpful and generates HTML when you
paste from it into a web browser. The end result is that you get formatting that
won’t necessarily fit in with the theme you’re using. This can make your site look
inconsistent and messy. Themes and WordPress will do their best to tidy up, but it’s
an uphill struggle!
Don’t forget – if you get stuck, hovering over the buttons will describe what they do,
and the short cut to use them from the keyboard.
Below the edit area, you’ll see the usual Tags and Categories options. You’ll see a
full description of all these options in Setting Posting and Page Options
4.2 Formatting text using the HTML editor
You can also click on the HTML tab on the editor and input text in HTML – the
language that describes web pages. This is for the more technically inclined and
does have the advantage of making it easier for you to create more sophisticated
designs. It’s worth noting that WordPress MU (used on sites such as
WordPress.com and Edublogs) will, by default, filter out a lot of HTML, which will
limit your options.
IMPORTANT: When using the html editor it's essential that you close all tags, or ask
WordPress to do it for you by pressing the 'Close Tags' button. If you don't then your
site's layout will be broken whenever that posting or page is displayed.
IMPORTANT (2): If a page or posting has been written using the html editor then any
attempt to edit that article using the visual rich editor may result in content or
formatting being lost. However, this has improved dramatically since version 2.5 and
few issues have been reported.
