bocron Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 I know the very basics but would love to find a good source to read more. I want to understand when to use different things, why to put a menu where I put it, how to use the inner functions of building the site, like meta tags, what's a slug and when does it need to be labeled. How much space is good for text, or pictures or whatever. The general stuff in wordpress is good, but I'm leaving lots of things blank when I'm sure I should use them. I don't want to drive everyone here or on the wordpress forums crazy so thought a bit of reading would be the way to go. An ebook or a good website to get me started would be much appreciated!

clbjr Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 I like to use W3SCHOOLS.COM when learning web design or programming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve7 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 I can suggest you colorburned and tutorialzine, both are best for web development resources. Just registered with them and get full access of their resources. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bocron Posted August 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2013 Thanks all, I've been plugging away at the sources listed. I also found a book I'm enjoying called "Don't Make Me Think" by Steve Krug. It's more about designing but explains the whys and wheres of the parts you need.

Steve7 Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Hey BoCRon, if that book is good enough to start and enhance your design experience, then can you share that book with me? I mean if you have an ebook then please attach here. I would like to read that.. Thanks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
