Back to: WordPress Website Walkthrough
Main take-a-ways
- Some themes (Divi and ProPhoto) manage their settings in additional tabs
- Child themes rely on the “parent” themes and enable you to make customizations to a site without worrying about losing your customizations during an update.
- Child themes only work in tandem with the parent theme
- Keep the parent theme updated even if it is not the active theme
- A domain is a reserved URL or “land”
- Hosting is the space or “contractor” for your website
- WordPress is the software framework for your site or “blueprint”
- The theme is the styling of the website or “flooring & paint”
- The content and images are the “furniture or decor” of your website
