* Read tutorials..... here are a few. http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Lessons - http://www.siteground.com/tutorials/wordpress - http://www.wp-tutorials.org * Download a theme and mess around customizing it, spend some doing trial and error. * Search, search, search! There is TONS of info out there about setting up a Wordpress site. * Ask questions in this forum of any problems you run into or of things your wondering how to do.
You need to first learn to "download and install wordpress on a self hosted blog" That will your first step.
just search on google, what u want about wordpress. everything is available on internet. want to learn personally? http://tutorial.techvila.com/wp/ requires one time fee of $20. but u get free help using the chat option. thanks
Based on my experience, apart of reading the tutorials that are available on the Internet, I also installed wordpress in my local PC and mess around with it, by doing this, I have also learnt alot of stuff. And it is FREE
If you like books, check this out: WordPress All in One for Dummies by Lisa Sabin-Wilson. It comes out in a month and it's getting mentions from reputable sources in the WP community. Video Interview w/Author: http://wpcandy.com/watches/lisa-sabin-wilson-on-wordpress-all-in-one-for-dummies
there is a lot of wordpress tutorial on google, just type your specified problem with wordpress and you will get the answere or if you need the video you can go to youtube and search wordpress keyword
If you want to learn to design your own theme then you can watch some tuts on youtube. Just search for custom wordpress theme. There are some good tuts and bad tuts, but you can learn a lot very fast watching them. Also if you are going to design your own theme you may want to download the starkers "naked" theme. That is what I started with when doing my theme and it was easy because I didnt have to change, alter or add to existing css styles. I was able to create all my own styles and add what ever I wanted. Best of luck!!
Editing themes can be a very tricky job. Wordpress itself is very simple and easy and I was no good with CSS and php when I began using it. Found it all very easy. It is more common sense then knowledge I believe when it comes to wordpress.
