Donna volunteers with the Tualatin Library Foundation and we met tonight along with Wayne and Hamish to have a tutoring session on how they could update their own website. Each person brought a laptop, signed into their WordPress site, and then the group learned how to:
- Add photos to their pages
- Update previous blog posts
- Give a photographer caption credit for her work
- Add a new page for the annual event of wine tasting, music and food
- Add a new page to the menu, and choose the placement
- Accept online payments using PayPal
- Add new users
- Update to the latest version of WordPress
- Update plugins
- Brand the PayPal checkout page with the association logo
- Add links to partner pages
- Edit photos by cropping and resizing
It was a very productive working session and now they have the confidence and experience to grow their web site and reach their audience effectively using the web.
