Attention past Wordpress nubs: looking for vids to learn

[jeanpaul1979]

Hiya ya, I have a client that needs to get familiar with WordPress posting and general management...

She's not technical so she will not pick it up fast by just playing with it like I did, so I'm looking for some learning videos that come recommended.

Any free stuff out there that will do the job? Or paid is ok too if I can find it somewhere. :angel:

I don't know if there are any videos to show you how to post on Wordpress.

Wordpress is the most easiest CMS/ Script to learn. Just tell her how you post a post and how to create a new page etc. You don't need to be technical to learn the various tasks on Wordpress.

OR

Google search or Youtube search for each task like "How to post a new post on Wordpress" and "How to create a new page on Wordpress" will do it.

Just to post on WP she needs a tutorial video? Just show her how to log in and create a post! It can't be easier surely? It's like writing a fucking email!

Ah - is she like my mother who is 80ish?

Write and post her articles for $20ea. If she gets tired of paying that she'll get the hang of that publish button.

I want to say, "herpty fucking derp, let me Google that for you!"... Oh, well, I guess I just did. Are you really that thick that you can't find decent WordPress tutorials? How about the most obvious place to look...

Or the most popular tutorial sites out there...

You might find a video or 2 on this site called Youtube. I hear they have something on just about every topic.

OP and the client can thank me later for that one.

I expected this thread to be treated like a joke and rape OP. Also, needs more tags.

FTFY. Oh, and I added a tag. See if you can guess which one.

Wtf.
