I’m always excited when the latest version of one of my favorite WordPress resources, Easy WP Guide, is released.
The helpful guide for managing WordPress content has been a go-to resource for me for years.
Given the interface changes in the WordPress 5.4 release, all screenshots in Easy WP Guide have been updated.
That’s an incredible amount of work!
Kudos to Anthony Hortin, the author of Easy WP Guide, for his diligence and care in providing an excellent resource for managing WordPress content.
Whenever any of my clients or members of our West Metro Detroit WordPress and Metro Detroit WordPress ask me for a guide for managing their WordPress content, I point them to Easy WP Guide.
It’s one of the five resources I include in my online resources for learning WordPress post.
What You’ll Find in Easy WP Guide
Why am I such a fan of Easy WP Guide?
It’s written in plain language that is easy to understand with annotated screenshots to highlight concepts.
Hortin has taken care to think about his audience and skillfully explains the details and steps for managing content in WordPress.
The guide is organized by main topics—Dashboard, Categories, Media Library, etc.—which you can drill down into for more details.
As he has in the past, Hortin provides information for both the Classic Editor.
Here’s a partial listing of the Table of Contents:
- Login
- Dashboard
- Adding Your Site Content
- Categories
- Tags
- Media Library
- Comments
- Appearance
- Plugins
- Users
- Tools
- Keeping Your Site Updated
Note: Easy WP Guide is a guide for managing content on your website. It’s not a resource for developing /modifying themes or plugins.
If you’re a developer looking for theme and plugin resources, visit the WordPress Codex as well as the Codex developer documentation.
Developers will also want to check out the developer documentation for the Block Editor.
