It's minimal php at best. Most of the heavy lifting is done by the Wordpress codex. You just have to know which Wordpress function to call to embed or loop stuff on your page.I picked up a bunch of classes on UDemy back when they had their $9.99 sale. I'm hoping to switch career fields (Web Development) once I'm done with this degree.
Does anyone here sell Wordpress templates or full Wordpress sites? If so how has that been working out? I've been thinking about doing this in between work, school, and my other design work, but not sure how profitable (experience and money wise) it will be.
You gon have to get your PHP up for WP development but not difficult. I thought about doing it myself but w/ so many out there it'd be hard to get into the market and really succeed but I wish u the best.
What you could also do is build you a few templates to either sell or use yourself and do website builds or redesigns. Using WP makes it that much easier to do and faster. If you haven't already done so, check out FreeCodeCamp for the webdev stuff as well.

Oh I thought you were saying you were commuting from dulles to dc .I got lucky, man. I work right in old town and live at national harbor
I couldn't imagine that 495 traffic
But it's worth it
Good looks guys. I'll look into this a bit more and decide if I want to pursue this as a side hustle. Learning the code won't be that difficult for me, it's just the time that it takes :/It's minimal php at best. Most of the heavy lifting is done by the Wordpress codex.

Yep, WP recently included their rest api in the 4.7 release. Not much good documentation yet but kinda straight forward if you've developed with wp before.^ Is that possible with Wordpress?
Or are more places moving away from WP and going more into Craft and other CMS?
Question for you. When you do these sites, do you just give the client access to the site to make updates? Or do you handle all of that as well? I'm only asking because I am actually working on a site now for a friend and I was wondering how I should go about making updates and things like that in the future.If you're asking if you can manipulate the CSS in WP, you can if u purchase the theme. Here's a site a worked on for a local non-profit. Most of the fonts and colors were edited along w/ some minor PHP from the original theme. IIH

That makes sense. I'm all about self help and would prefer if the client does their own updates and stuff.(Assuming you mean content and the maintenance of said content)Question for you.

Never get suckered into having to update a site for clients. Make em learn how to do stuff!
And make your backend easy enough for them to do it.
(I know this wasnt a question for me, just wanted to help)
Got it! He is pretty tech savy just not good enough to make a website, but with some documentation he should be straight. I'll work out all the details with him next time we meet up.Well, since I'm starting out, when we do finish a project, we give them a grace period for updates 30days> as a courtesy. But we also create a documentation sheet so once that period is up they can do it on their own. Now if they want to contract us to do it and pay, I aint mad at it. I've only done the one website and that's how we did it.Question for you. When you do these sites, do you just give the client access to the site to make updates?

It's not that WP is difficult to learn, some of the addons are though and configuring the API if there's an update.
I would suggest you give your boy a grace period and let him know that once that period is over, he own his own. Time is money unfortunately, he may be upset but he gon have to learn how to make the changes himself.
Aey, if yall could, when yall get the chance, check out my daughter's game she did on code.org Aint much but I'm mad proud of her

I've seen some of those.Programming bootcamps are beneficial if you have the time. I believe you have to stay on the premises from sun up to sun down
I've seen some of those.
UC Irvine is offering an accelerated course 3 days a week for 12 weeks, I think.
Considering it, but not sure yet.
I’m in one at my college now. Classes three times a week for 6 months. 630-930 tues and thurs, 10-2 sat. Not too bad.How beneficial are programming boot camps? I've considered signing up for one. I would like to change career fields, but I feel like I would need years of experience to be considered for a programming job.
Any tips or suggestions on where I should look to get started? I used to do a lot of HTML back in the day.
