WordPress User Manual for Beginners
1. Introduction to WordPress
WordPress has come a long way from the beginning, when users had to know how
to write code, upload files etc if they wanted to run their own websites. If they
wanted to use a different theme, they’d have to use expensive and difficult to learn
packages like Dreamweaver which could require understanding of often difficult to
grasp languages and code such as HTML and CSS.
With WordPress you have the system to manage the content, and easy to download
and install attractive themes (site designs, often adding functionality to WordPress)
from sites such as http://wordpress.org. Many themes are free though there are also
commercial themes and theme clubs which you can Google for.
What WordPress does is to make possible the building of a semantically structured
(ie, with meaning) website or blog which makes the job of search engines easier. It
provides an excellent platform for building everything from simple blogs, to significant
news platforms.. The biggest limit, usually, is the imagination of the developers and
designers creating themes and plugins, and of the content writers.

1.3 Getting Started
When your WordPress is first installed you won't have any content in your site
beyond what comes as default –which is a single category, a set of blog links you
probably don’t want, and a page and a post. All of this will need to be tidied up. So
the first thing to do is: LOG IN!
If you haven’t got a login link on your site, simply add /wp-admin to the root address
and you’ll arrive at the login page as above. First connect to your website – during
installation you will have set up a username and been emailed a password which will
have been auto-generated. Alternatively, if someone installed the site for you he or
she will have given you the login and password details. If you lose your details, you
can click on “Lost your password?” and a new password will be generated and e-
mailed to you. You’ll need to change this to something more memorable. Enter your
details, select “Remember me” if your computer is secure and only used by you and
you’d like not to have to log in each time, and click on the Login button.
