hey game changes

welcome back to another tutorial video

in this video

I like to just talk about the WordPress dash bar

so if you've already done your pre training

you'll be able to have your logins credential to this

WP admin area

if you have issues recognizing this page

go back to your pre training and get that sorted out

if not just go ahead and log in

all right so this is your WordPress dashboard

how it works is all of the customizations and settings

are actually done in the back end area

which is over here

so just to give you a brief idea

if you click on my blog on the top left corner

you'll be able to access your um

your basic WordPress site that you have just set up

so this is how it looks like

so if you just wanna go back to dashboard

just walk you through um

what it consists of

so on the dashboard

basically you'll be able to do different

different things

and it has different functionalities available to you

to build your website

so over here

there's just different customization options

that you have over here as shortcuts

at a glance

how many posts have you

or comments and pages

have you actually posted your recent activities

whether if it's someone that has recently commented

in your blog or your website

a quick draft area

we're able to quickly drop down your different ideas

the title of your blog

post of your page and what's on your mind

and an event

a new section where WordPress actually

lets you know the different events that are nearby

or that's happening around your city

so

you can actually customize this area

so if you go on the screen option you'll be able to see

you know allow disable different things that you

can see as soon as you log into your work as dashboard

if you need any help from WordPress themselves

they have different options for you

documentations and knowledge based within support

forums which you will get access to

a forum with different types of WordPress users

both just starting out or advanced users

so on the left

over here you can see that

you be able to create new posts to your website

at New Posts categories tags

I walk you through the

you know how you can change your WordPress settings

apply a tea

create pages

and even embed videos in your post

in separate training videos

but over here

I just wanted to quickly

run you through the different options that

are available on WordPress

so over here on the left

you can see you can add different

you can add post

you can create or add different media

whether it comes to a picture

a product image a PDF file

a downloadable

which you want to include in your website

you can create new pages

whether it's homepage

contact page

your offer page

and over here you have the default privacy policy

you're able to make changes

to it as soon as you've clicked into it

whether it's you know

changing the content

adding media

making it visible to the public

or keeping it private

different things that are available to customize

as soon as you've set up a page a post

on the left here you have the comments as well

so this is if you allow comments

and people to comment on your blog post

for example

this is where your recent comments will show up

and you are able to then interact with your

subscribers

or even delete it if someone is intentionally

spamming your site

over here you have the appearance tab

where you're able to install different teams

and manage the teams that you have installed

you're able to customize your website

if you like to make changes to your site identity

what's the name of your site

the different colors teams

menu widgets

and if you are a coder or if you know coding

you can actually add additional CSS

but this is not something that you have to worry about

at the moment

I'll just back out

so you're able to install widgets as well

shiftings around

you can actually play around with this

it's basically different kind of widgets

that you're able to include in your website

menus you can add menus to your website

and create brand new menus

or edit your existing menu

you can make changes to your header

for example if you like to change

you know the header image you can do so right here

change your homepage settings

whether the first thing people see is the static page

or your latest blog post

and you have the editor section as well

but over here

only if you're familiar with coding

if not you're able to

I mean if you are familiar with coding

you're able to then add different codes to your website

over here by the moment

it's something that I would not recommend you touch

just stick with

the different options you have by default

next thing is you can install plugins

plugins are basically different tools that can help

optimize your press website

for example

you're able to add new plugins over here

you know there's a lot of different

thousands of plugins available to you for free

so plugins you know

if you like to have a contact form on your website

if you like to improve the SEO of your website

you can install different plugins

take a look at different

plugins based on their reviews and popularity

you know all in one SEO pack Google Analytics

which are pretty cool so

once you've installed your plugin

and you've activated it

you'll be able to then use it on the

website itself

so if you like to find out more about Particle Plugin

you can just go inside and then you'll be able to

read more about how it'll help your website

and the different reviews

and how people are actually using this web plugin to

help optimize their website

so the next tab is actually uses

for example

if you have a team of editors or people that you know

you like to contribute to their website

you can actually give them individual logins

where you add new and give them a password

so that they can access

the website and make changes to it

so you can set different roles to them

where they can have limited access to certain areas

or if you like to have them to have full access

then set them as admin

under your profile you'll be able to change

basically just to customize your own profile

you can take a look at it

it's really simple and straightforward

even change your password settings over here

change your profile pictures

edit via info by yourself

and your website settings

tools it's something that I recommend not to use

at the moment

I just want to stick with what's in front over here

but if you do come at a point of time

where you're more familiar with the world

price platform

it's something you can look into as well

and in settings

and you can change your site title your tagline

I recommend not touching the URL over here

just leave it to the default

only if you want to make changes to a particular page

for example so if the privacy policy page

can actually change the permanently over here

so if you don't want it to be privacy policy

you want it to be

terms or something you can actually edit it over here

and then once you've done that

make sure you publish the site

yeah that's really it

so the dashboard is pretty straightforward

you can take a look at different features you have

on the left

you know build and set up your site
