When you start to browse for a theme for your new WordPress install, do you get curious about what exactly you are looking at and what it means for your site? Here’s a guide to deciphering a sample theme page:
Word Press Test Site: Once you have set up your site, this is what your site’s name will look like, i.e. Jenn Mears Web Design
Just Another WordPress Weblog: This will be your site summary. For example, “A site to learn more about how web design actually works.”
Page 1, Page 2: This is what Page links on your site will look like. Pages are considered “permanent” content and are treated like the pages of a conventional web site.
Page Child: A sub-page of a Page. Example: Page-About Us, Page Child-Company History.
Categories: A listing of the types of Posts that your site contains. Posts are like magazine articles. They are archived by the database you create in your WP installation and can be arranged for browsing according to either Category or date.
Archives: A chronological listing of all your posts.
Blogroll: A list of links related to your site that you can edit. It’s called Blogroll as a standard, but can be changed to say something else, like, Our Partners or Other Great Design Sites.
An Image In A Post: This is what the title of a Page or Post will look like.
Meta: This can be a list of links to sites related to WordPress and/or your link to log into the WP control panel.
