All right, so in the last video we got done working on our first blog post over here, so we're going
to delete that.
So I'm going to go into all post here and click on trash and get rid of that one for right now.
Now, let's say, oh, you know what?
I really had some important information in there.
I wanted to keep the it's not really gone.
Gone.
So if you look up here at the top, you that there's all and there's trash.
So I could still always recover something from the trash unless I hit delete permanently.
So there's a little something to keep in the back of your mind there.
One other thing was kind of down the row here of other areas is the categories for the posts.
I went ahead and created a couple of categories because by default it just comes with uncategorized.
But you can go in and add other categories, or you could do it from the post area, which we took a
look at.
So just know that you always go in here.
We can always edit these.
Maybe there's one you created in a post, but maybe you spelled it wrong.
You always come back here and say edit change the spelling of the word business or whatever it was that
you had and just say update.
And that's where all that stuff is at.
So there is also tags as well.
We talked a little bit about that.
You could also you could have premade tags, maybe common ones that you're going to use over and over.
Most people really don't create those ahead of time.
Just know that there are there is an area very similar to categories where we could go in and either
add some or maybe if we spelled something wrong, we could go in and edit it in here.
So just know that those two areas are there for you.
Now, we also went into within the post, we added a new image and delete that one right there.
I didn't upload.
Right.
And neither did that one.
So we can delete that.
So within the immediate area here, this is what stores everything that you've uploaded to the website.
Again, this can be an image, this can be a PDF, can be a video and audio file, whatever any kind
of media file you can upload to here.
What's nice is depending on the name that you name it, you can also search for it.
And maybe you had your logo or something that you were looking for.
You just type that word in there and you'll try to pull up whatever you can find that's very similar
to that name.
Now, if I click on the image itself, there's some different things that we can do with this.
We can see what it shows right where it was.
Upload it to is uploaded to that hello world post we created.
We can view the attachment page and we can edit the details on it, different things like that.
We can actually edit the image itself.
That's a little bit limited.
It's not the most advanced image editing software.
And the big thing I don't like about it is that it kind of like save over the original photo.
So if you edit this, it's not going to also make a duplicate of it and show you the edited version.
It's just going to edit this one photo so we can always rotated, do different things like that with
it.
We can change the dimensions of it so we can kind of scale it down and we can croppies.
And that's kind of it right there.
It's not like Instagram where you can really, you know, tweak out the colors and different things
like that just gives you some basic image editing functions in here, which is nice.
But again, I prefer to do that somewhere else where I have complete control over exactly how the image
is being displayed.
All right.
So the next area we took a look at we're going to take a look at is pages now.
Works a lot like post up here, right?
Mouseover pages.
And I can see I can create all pages or create a new one just by clicking on pages itself.
I go to all pages from within here.
There are two pages just like the Post where WordPress has created them automatically for me.
I can go and delete them if I want to, or I can just kind of start working from them.
So I'll click on sample page and again, if I mouse over, this looks just like the post where it has
the edit, the quick view and the trash in The View.
But I'm going to click on the title for right now and the area over here looks just like it did in the
post.
It works exactly the same way as the Post and it's very, very similar on the left excuse me, the right
hand side over here.
We can have it published in a certain day.
We can have a password protected.
We can send it to draughtsmen.
Same stuff we could in the post.
There is some stuff over here we don't see that was in posts.
But for the most part, it's really kind of all the same, it's, you know, the post and pages are
very, very similar.
They're just set up a little bit differently in the front of the website.
So we've got our pages in here.
Let's go ahead and create a couple new pages because we're going to want to get rid of sample pages.
That's another place that spammers kind of tend to go after because it's a pre-defined page.
Every WordPress site has it.
So let's go ahead and get rid of that.
Let's create one called Home.
This is our home page here, and I have to publish it at noon.
Another new one called Those Just Want About that.
They publish and create one more mole called contact and we'll hit publish.
OK, so we've got three pages so far.
In fact, it's going to take a copy.
And let's do another thing, we'll get a header tag, this just kind of gives it a different predefined
font size.
So I or two is a little bit smaller than the header one header three is smaller than the two.
And I publish their.
All right, so let's say I want to go back and edit those other two pages that I just created, so I
come back to all pages and go home and say, this is the home page.
I give that one to give them a header on tag just so we can see the difference.
And I go back to the pages again and do the same thing for about, and I say, this is the Web page
and I give that one, two or three tag.
And depending on the theme and the styles that are applied to it, those header tags are going to look
a little bit different from theme to theme.
But that's not a big deal.
Just having that in there is important enough, and that's good for right now.
So let's do this.
Let's actually go take a look at the front end of our website.
And you can do this a couple different ways.
You can either click on the euro and it gives you right up here for that page that's going to take you
specifically to the page that we just created here.
We can also appear you'll see the title of the name of your website.
You can click on that.
There's also a view page up here, which is the same as clicking on this link down here.
So for this case going to go ahead, just click on this.
And in fact, because I'm an American and I click on command and click it, if you're on a PC, I believe
it's control click and I'll open up a new tabs without losing our place right here.
So I'll click on that.
So you got a new tab and this is the default theme that comes with the current version of WordPress.
As it come down here, you can see that there's nothing on the home page right now.
So we need to set this because in our settings, we had it set to the blog post being what is the home
page?
So let's go ahead and come back and we'll go to our settings here and we'll say reading.
And instead of the home page displays, our latest post will say it displays a static page, which is
going to be making select, which is the home page home.
And then we can say that's just a sample page as our blog page doesn't really matter.
It just whatever the link is now, is it safe?
I'm going to come back up to the other tab, which is this is just the home page of online marketing
concepts.
And I'm going to refresh it and you'll see that this is now displaying the home page.
This right there.
This is the home page.
And if I were to upload a featured image, I believe that's what goes up here with this theme.
And everything is a little bit different here.
And then this is all the information that goes on the page itself.
So that's creating pages and the basics of kind of editing the images and everything else.
The next couple of videos, we're going to dive a little bit deeper into the themes and we're going
to take a look and see some different options.
With that, we can do very simple, very cool stuff.
So stay with me.
