Lifetime Access to Videos Learn to build a Wordpress theme from scratch!

In this series, Ben Falk steps the viewer through the entire design and development process, starting with doing the design in Photoshop, then building an HTML/CSS template, and finally integrating that template into a fully functioning Wordpress theme.

The author demonstrates a wide range of Wordpress functionality, including Wordpress search, menus, sidebars and widgets, and how to theme posts, pages, categories and archives. In addition, install and use a favorite Wordpress plugin: the Advanced Custom Fields plugin.

This course is aimed at intermediate designers/programmers. To follow along, you are expected to have a basic understanding of Photoshop, HTML, CSS and PHP. The author demonstrates Wordpress using a local install on a computer, meaning that web hosting isn't required to follow along.
