Good question and thanks for your reply. Since around November '12 I have been on the WP learning curve and though I have made progress, a lot is still very foggy. A web designer set up my WP philcollinsstudio.com in November with the understanding that I would then "learn" WP and manage the site, manage the content. I have been reading everything I can get my hands on and watching a lot of videos. Little by little the pieces are coming together.
So to answer your question, I would say yes (is this right?) WP has been installed. I can go to the website and log in to admin and get to the Dashboard.
I am currently watching a video which is very good and clear. It started from the very first step and I follow along on my website/dashboard. I am trying to get to the place where I can manage all the content on my website, images and blog. As I said, I have made progress but still lots of questions such as when adding an image, how to determine exactly where it is to go on a page or blog. Or if I want to add a text box on a page, how to place it in a specific spot. These are only examples of number of questions I have. As I go through the video, some of the questions have been clarified or answered.
I thought about starting from scratch on another site in order to learn
"hands on" but decided I needed to learn my website.
Another challenge is the designer added WooCommerce and WooThemes plug-ins. I have learned that a person can know WP but if they have WooCommerce and WooThemes, it is very different. So in addition to learning WP, I am learning WooCommerce and WooThemes. What is difficult is WooCommerce only provides support to the person who purchased the WooTheme which is the designer for my website. Even though I am the user, I can't get support from WooCommerce. I have to direct my questions to the web designer and host of my website.
Thanks again for your help.
