This page contains all the video tutorials for you to maintain your website. Your Website is running on a product called WordPress which is the most popular “Open Source” website design software. “Open Source” means that it is free and many people around the world are always creating free “Plugins” or “Add Ons” as new technology is developed. If you can think of something you want the site to do there is a plugin that you can add that will update your site to do it. Many developers also build “Plugins” or “Add Ons” which they charge for. If you can not find a free “Plugin” or “Add On” then there is probably one that you can buy. Because of the versatility, ease of use and ever changing current development which the WordPress software encompasses it is an ideal website builder for your organization.
If there is a problem or a question on how to accomplish a task, formatting, adding additional features or any other item that may come up when maintaining your website a simple Google Search starting with “WordPress How do you XXXX” will give you hundreds if not thousands of results which include forums, tech help sites and video help to answer your question or solve your problem.
Below are your Video Tutorials on how to maintain your Website; they go into detail but there is simply so much that you can do within WordPress that it is impossible to show you every aspect of the software. Any questions you may have you can always contact me at don.leck@verizon.net.
