00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,200
|
|
Let's get acquainted with the WordPress Dashboard.
|
|
|
|
2
|
|
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:08,000
|
|
To log into your site, enter the following in a web browser address bar.
|
|
|
|
3
|
|
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,000
|
|
Fill in your details and click on log in.
|
|
|
|
4
|
|
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:16,000
|
|
Once we log into the dashboard, we can see the main admin bar at the top.
|
|
|
|
5
|
|
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,000
|
|
Let's start with the home icon for your site.
|
|
|
|
6
|
|
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:23,000
|
|
And clicking on this takes you to the public facing homepage of your site
|
|
|
|
7
|
|
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,000
|
|
or the front end of your site.
|
|
|
|
8
|
|
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:29,000
|
|
And when you click on it again, it takes you back to your dashboard.
|
|
|
|
9
|
|
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:36,000
|
|
Then there are two notification icons. New comments and updates will appear here.
|
|
|
|
10
|
|
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:39,780
|
|
Hovering over new brings up a menu of links to create new items
|
|
|
|
11
|
|
00:00:39,780 --> 00:00:45,000
|
|
such as posts, media items, pages or even adding new users.
|
|
|
|
12
|
|
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:49,000
|
|
And the actual contents of this list depend on the user role.
|
|
|
|
13
|
|
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:55,000
|
|
And all the way in the right corner of the admin bar, you'll see your username and avatar.
|
|
|
|
14
|
|
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:59,083
|
|
And from this menu, clicking on either your name or edit profile,
|
|
|
|
15
|
|
00:00:59,083 --> 00:01:02,000
|
|
it will take you to the edit profile page.
|
|
|
|
16
|
|
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:09,750
|
|
Just below the dark gray admin bar are two tabs, the screen options tab and the help tab.
|
|
|
|
17
|
|
00:01:09,750 --> 00:01:14,229
|
|
The screen options tab appears on most administrative pages
|
|
|
|
18
|
|
00:01:14,229 --> 00:01:18,000
|
|
and it allows you to control the elements that appear on that page.
|
|
|
|
19
|
|
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,000
|
|
If you deselect a widget, it disappears.
|
|
|
|
20
|
|
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:26,310
|
|
In the body of the dashboard, you'll find a number of administrative widgets or panels
|
|
|
|
21
|
|
00:01:26,310 --> 00:01:32,000
|
|
and you've seen how these can be shown or hidden using the checkboxes in the screen options tab.
|
|
|
|
22
|
|
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:37,000
|
|
And their position can also be changed simply by dragging and dropping them where you want.
|
|
|
|
23
|
|
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:43,000
|
|
As a side note, this is just one of the possible WordPress dashboard configurations.
|
|
|
|
24
|
|
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:47,421
|
|
The dashboard view will change based on what plugins you have active and your hosting company
|
|
|
|
25
|
|
00:01:47,421 --> 00:01:50,000
|
|
and how you personally configure it.
|
|
|
|
26
|
|
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:56,000
|
|
When using the quick draft widget, anything entered into this forum will be saved as a draft post.
|
|
|
|
27
|
|
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:00,000
|
|
That is, it will be saved but not published on your site.
|
|
|
|
28
|
|
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,517
|
|
This is very handy for jotting down quick ideas for posts
|
|
|
|
29
|
|
00:02:03,517 --> 00:02:06,000
|
|
that you would like to come back to and finish later.
|
|
|
|
30
|
|
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,938
|
|
The added launch widget gives you a quick total for the number of pages, posts and comments
|
|
|
|
31
|
|
00:02:10,938 --> 00:02:14,000
|
|
that are currently on your site.
|
|
|
|
32
|
|
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:19,000
|
|
It also displays the current theme and the version of WordPress that you're using.
|
|
|
|
33
|
|
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:23,000
|
|
Activity shows your most recent posts and comments.
|
|
|
|
34
|
|
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:29,000
|
|
And the WordPress events and news panel is a great way to get involved with the WordPress community.
|
|
|
|
35
|
|
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:35,000
|
|
Based on your location, you'll see a list of different WordPress related events and meetups.
|
|
|
|
36
|
|
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:42,000
|
|
Now, the most common way of moving around the admin area is by using the navigation links in the left sidebar.
|
|
|
|
37
|
|
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:48,000
|
|
Some of these are used much more frequently than others, particularly posts, pages and comments.
|
|
|
|
38
|
|
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:54,948
|
|
With that in mind, you'll notice that more of the content focused menu items are located in the top section,
|
|
|
|
39
|
|
00:02:54,948 --> 00:03:01,000
|
|
whereas menu items focused on functionality, appearance and other settings are grouped together down at the bottom.
|
|
|
|
40
|
|
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,000
|
|
Next up, let's talk about posts.
|
|
|
|
41
|
|
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:10,000
|
|
Posts are for dynamic content, such as a blog post or a book review.
|
|
|
|
42
|
|
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:15,000
|
|
They are individual pieces of content on your blog page or news page, for example.
|
|
|
|
43
|
|
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:21,789
|
|
When you publish a post, it will generally appear in reverse chronological order on your posts page,
|
|
|
|
44
|
|
00:03:21,789 --> 00:03:27,000
|
|
so when visitors come to your site, they will always be presented with the latest posts.
|
|
|
|
45
|
|
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:31,000
|
|
And posts will change over time as you add new content.
|
|
|
|
46
|
|
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:34,000
|
|
Pages on the other hand are for more static content.
|
|
|
|
47
|
|
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:40,000
|
|
When you click on Quick Edit, you can quickly change categories, tags and several other items.
|
|
|
|
48
|
|
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:44,071
|
|
Trash moves the post to the Trash folder
|
|
|
|
49
|
|
00:03:44,071 --> 00:03:49,000
|
|
and you can recover anything that you've put into the trash for up to 30 days.
|
|
|
|
50
|
|
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:58,000
|
|
You can use checkboxes next to the posts to perform actions on multiple items, like editing or trashing.
|
|
|
|
51
|
|
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:05,000
|
|
You can also filter the list of posts by date, month and year and categories.
|
|
|
|
52
|
|
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:11,000
|
|
Lastly, you can search for words or phrases that may be contained in your posts.
|
|
|
|
53
|
|
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:14,000
|
|
Before we look at media, let's talk about pages.
|
|
|
|
54
|
|
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:18,000
|
|
So, a page is for static content.
|
|
|
|
55
|
|
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,935
|
|
And the page generally will always stay the same,
|
|
|
|
56
|
|
00:04:20,935 --> 00:04:25,000
|
|
though just like a post, you can update it whenever you want.
|
|
|
|
57
|
|
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,756
|
|
Pages are useful things, like an about page, contact page
|
|
|
|
58
|
|
00:04:28,756 --> 00:04:32,000
|
|
or even something like the history of your site or company.
|
|
|
|
59
|
|
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,000
|
|
Next, let's talk about media.
|
|
|
|
60
|
|
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:40,000
|
|
The media library contains all your media files.
|
|
|
|
61
|
|
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:46,000
|
|
From images, audio files, Excel spreadsheets and even PDF documents.
|
|
|
|
62
|
|
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:52,000
|
|
You can display items in the grid view or list view.
|
|
|
|
63
|
|
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:56,500
|
|
When you select Add New and click on Select Files,
|
|
|
|
64
|
|
00:04:56,500 --> 00:05:01,000
|
|
you can upload media from your computer or drag and drop multiple files at the top.
|
|
|
|
65
|
|
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:07,000
|
|
The only bulk action for the media library is to delete media items permanently.
|
|
|
|
66
|
|
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,000
|
|
Next up, we are going to talk about comments.
|
|
|
|
67
|
|
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:16,000
|
|
Comments are of course the messages that visitors to your site leave below posts.
|
|
|
|
68
|
|
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:21,000
|
|
When you click on comments, you will see a list of all the comments on your site.
|
|
|
|
69
|
|
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:26,034
|
|
As you hover over each comment, you can see the different options that are available to you,
|
|
|
|
70
|
|
00:05:26,034 --> 00:05:32,000
|
|
such as Approve, Unapprove, Reply, Quick Edit, Edit, Spam and Trash.
|
|
|
|
71
|
|
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:39,000
|
|
To the left, you can see the comment has information like their name, their gravitar and their email address.
|
|
|
|
72
|
|
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:40,941
|
|
As you move your cursor to the right,
|
|
|
|
73
|
|
00:05:40,941 --> 00:05:45,000
|
|
you can also see which post or page this comment was left on.
|
|
|
|
74
|
|
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:46,714
|
|
And all the way to the right,
|
|
|
|
75
|
|
00:05:46,714 --> 00:05:51,000
|
|
you'll find the date and the time that the comment was submitted.
|
|
|
|
76
|
|
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,000
|
|
Next, let's discuss Appearance.
|
|
|
|
77
|
|
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:58,000
|
|
In the Appearance section, you can change your site's theme.
|
|
|
|
78
|
|
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:03,077
|
|
If you are using a block-based theme, you will have access to the site editor,
|
|
|
|
79
|
|
00:06:03,077 --> 00:06:09,000
|
|
which will allow you to create overall site structure and to edit your site cohesively from one place.
|
|
|
|
80
|
|
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,138
|
|
But if you are using a classic theme,
|
|
|
|
81
|
|
00:06:13,138 --> 00:06:17,000
|
|
you will have access to the customizer, widgets and so forth.
|
|
|
|
82
|
|
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,000
|
|
Next up, Plugins.
|
|
|
|
83
|
|
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:25,000
|
|
When you open the Plugins menu and click on Add New,
|
|
|
|
84
|
|
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:30,000
|
|
you'll be able to install, manage and uninstall plugins for your site.
|
|
|
|
85
|
|
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,000
|
|
Lastly, let's touch on Users.
|
|
|
|
86
|
|
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:38,000
|
|
Under the Users menu, you can manage users on your site.
|
|
|
|
87
|
|
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:47,000
|
|
The different roles are Subscriber, Contributor, Author, Editor and Administrator.
|
|
|
|
88
|
|
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:52,000
|
|
We will learn more about these and the settings below in later lessons.
|
|
|
|
89
|
|
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:58,000
|
|
I trust you now have a better grasp on navigating your way through the dashboard.
|
