Designing for Wordpress: Video
We have WordPress installed, now let’s really get our hands dirty and start getting WordPress to do what we want it to do. We start by poking around the backend activating some plugins, changing some settings and creating posts/pages.Then we take a look at the Photoshop design and note some of the important aspects. Layout, color palette and font choices are all important things to consider as well as the overall feel. WordPress sites don’t need to scream “Blog!” unless you want them to. Then we take a look at the modular nature of a WordPress theme and start altering the markup of the files and writing CSS.
In part three, we will continue touching up the design, adding details and content. We may get to the finishing touches of adding the “extra-content” stuff like the Twitter feed, or that might be a part four.

What Is a Custom Field
A custom field is a key+value pair that’s associated with a particular post. Once a key is made, it can be used for other posts, with different values. The key is the name of the custom field, and the value is the information contained by the field. The key+value information is also known as meta data. It is stored in a database table called wp_postmeta.

Building Joomla! sites from scratch, and systematically customizing them to your needs
Building Joomla! sites from scratch.
A sitemap is critical to having a well organized site. You must make an effort to draft one before you start working in the administrator backend.

Joomla offers two methods to organize articles. The first is to use uncategorized articles, which are suited for very small sites. For larger sites the second method of sections in categories needs to be used.

Making your pages with uncategorized content items is the simplest way to build a Joomla site, but it is difficult to manage with more than a dozen pages.
Sections and Categories
If I have many more articles than a dozen, using uncategorized articles isn't going to work. If I pick up the stack, I might have to flip through a thousand pieces of paper.
Joomla offers two levels: the highest is called sections, and below that are categories.
You can't put content items in a section; they must go in a category. This means that each section needs at least one category. Read more!
