我已经完成了5分钟的安装。现在该做什么?
您刚刚完成了5分钟安装 WordPress 或从您的网络托管商进行一键安装。那么您的下一步是什么?
让我们逐步游览你的WordPress网站,看看各个功能如何运作,并了解如何让你的新网站独具特色。在本教程的第一部分,请不要在程序内更改任何内容,除非是教程的一部分。完成这些步骤后,你很快就会更改一切。
登录
首先登录到网站的管理区域,或后台。通过在域名后放置wp-admin来访问您网站的登录页面(例如,http://example.com/wp-admin)。一些主题在前台上也提供登录链接或表单。现在使用您在5分钟安装中创建的用户名和密码登录WordPress。
从顶部开始
登录后,您将进入主管理界面,称为仪表板。 这是组织您的网站的开始。
屏幕顶部是被称为工具栏的区域。点击你的网站名称;它是一个链接,会带你看到你的新WordPress网站。喜欢它?不喜欢它?没关系,只需看看它。你将在这里度过很多时间!
试驾您的WordPress网站
在你开始更改和了解网站之前,花时间看看这个网站,了解它是如何运作的;重要的是要看到WordPress Twenty Twenty-Two主题是如何布局和运作的。在你开始添加所有特殊功能之前,可以考虑这是个试驾。
您正在查看的布局由WordPress主题定义。这是您的网站外观,用于样式化网站的外观并框架内容。WordPress Twenty Twenty-Two主题在顶部有一个“标题”,包含您的网站标题和标语。下面是你的菜单,如果你有的话。页面的主要中间部分是内容区域。
向下滚动页面,您将看到一个搜索框、最近的帖子和最近的评论。这些被称为小部件。
注意页面底部的条形栏。这叫做“页脚”。它显示“自豪地由WordPress提供技术支持。”
快速环游
目前,你只有一篇帖子。它位于一个页面中,该页面是你 主页 或首页。如果你点击帖子的标题,它会带你到该帖子的特定页面。你的第一个页面或主页会显示你网站上最新的帖子。每个帖子标题都会链接到该帖子的实际页面。一些主题设计师设计他们的 单个 帖子页面以使其看起来与主页不同。
在单篇帖子中,注意布局并留意设计元素有何不同。标题栏是否不同?是较小、较大还是颜色不同?是否有侧边栏?
所有这些更改都是由一些称为模板文件的文件创建的。您可以在主题开发者手册中了解更多有关它们如何工作的信息。不过,现在让我们继续讨论WordPress的其余部分是如何工作的。
试驾WordPress管理屏幕
现在你已经了解了你的网站看起来是什么样子以及各个布局部分的名称,是时候来试驾 WordPress 管理了。这就像熟悉你新网站的后台。事实上,你在登录后看到的第一个页面叫做 仪表板,它是关于你的 WordPress 网站的活动和操作的信息和数据的集合。
仪表盘展示了您在网站上最近完成的活动列表,并帮助您了解来自众多WordPress资源的新颖有趣的资讯。
屏幕左侧是主导航菜单,详细说明了您可以执行的每个管理功能。将鼠标向下移动列表,子菜单将“弹出”,供您移动鼠标并点击。一旦您选择一个“父”导航部分,它将打开以显示该部分内的选项。
各种菜单项如下:
让我们从用户界面开始
点击 用户标签。屏幕将会改变,您将看到一个名为 所有用户的屏幕,显示您的所有用户列表;从这里您可以添加或更改现有的用户和作者账户。在导航菜单中,点击您的个人资料菜单选项。这是您输入有关您自己、作者和 管理员的信息的地方。填写信息后,完成后点击 更新个人资料。
现在,让我们来看看WordPress管理后台的其他一些强大功能。
更改外观
The Appearance, Themes Screen allows you to change the look of your site using different Themes. Themes are presentation styles that completely change the look of your site. Designed by developers and users, there are hundreds of themes available for you to choose from. In your Appearance Screen, you will see a list of currently installed themes, including the WordPress Twenty Twenty-Two theme. To quickly change the theme, simply click on the Activate button under one of the themes listed, then click on your site name in the top toolbar to see how it looks. Wow, you have another look. It’s that easy. Go back to Appearance > Theme and click the Activate button under the WordPress Twenty Twenty-Two theme to bring the design back to what you had. To see it again, click your site name in the toolbar, and there it is.
Creating a post
Back in the Administration Screen, take a look at the Posts Screen. You can use the tabs under the Posts Menu to write and manage your posts. Let’s start by making your first test post in the Add New tab.
The first time you use the Block Editor, you will see a short tutorial.
在分配的空间中填写文章标题。然后在“开始写作或输入 / 以选择一个块”部分编写文本。这只是一个测试,所以你可以写任何你想写的内容。完成后,点击页面右上角的发布按钮,然后再次点击以确认发布。现在,你已经体验到了撰写文章的感觉,你可以通过点击工具栏中的网站名称来查看你的文章。
评论
使用WordPress的乐趣之一是可以让访客在你的网站上发表评论。这在你和访客之间创造了动态的交流。你希望你的文章有评论吗?文章的评论有多种形式,从 鼓励性的表扬 (干得好!喜欢这篇文章!) 到关于文章的广泛对话和评论。或者也许你希望得到评论来补充你发布的信息。回应评论并 管理评论 也可能花费很多时间。如果它们对您的网站很重要,那么包括它们并考虑如何呈现。您可以在您创建的帖子上发表一些评论。看看它们是如何排列的,并考虑它们在您的网站设计和布局中应该是什么样子。当您对如何处理评论做出决定后,花点时间阅读 关于评论和 WordPress 讨论选项的文章,以帮助您设置这些功能。
防止垃圾邮件
There is more to think about when it comes to having comments on your site. Unfortunately, we live in a world where spam is a fact of life. It is recommended that you begin battling the comment spammers with the helpful article, Introduction to Dealing with Comment Spam.
Create Categories
Posts are usually stored in Categories and/or Tags so you can keep related topics together. Right now you only have one category, but you will soon want more. In the Posts > Categories tab, in the Add New Category area, fill in the information about your category. Continue to add your parent categories, going down the list. Hold off on entering subcategories until all the main categories are entered.
NOTE: You can add any new category at any time, but make a note of the fact that categories can be sorted in WordPress in two ways: by name (alphabetically) or by ID number. As you enter the categories, they are assigned an ID number. It is difficult to change this, so if you don’t want your categories sorted alphabetically, enter them in the order you want to see them presented on the screen.
Setting Up Your Site
Before you get to the graphic look of your site, let’s do a little more administration to your site to set it up. You may want to install plugins to supercharge your website, and don’t forget to activate the Akismet WordPress Plugin that is available with all WordPress sites to help protect it from comment spam. When you have the parent categories entered, enter your subcategories. In the pull-down menu for Parent Category, you can select the parent to the subcategory you are adding. When you view your categories in the Manage > Categories Screen, you will see the categories listed like this:
- Computer Tips
- Windows
- Linux
- Mac
- Internet News
- Web Page Design
- Web Standards
- WordPress
- Plugins
- Themes
Put Posts in Categories
Let’s put some of your test posts into categories so you can see how this works. From the Posts > Category Screen, click on the tab for All Posts. You should see the test posts you entered here. When you hover your mouse over each post title, under the title, you should see the Edit | Quick Edit | Trash | View links. Click on Edit to edit one of the posts. On the right side of the Edit Post screen, you will now see your Categories. Choose one of them by clicking on the box next to it. Then in the Publish module above, click the Update button. Repeat this for your other test posts, putting each one in a different category. Now view your page by clicking on your site name in the toolbar at the top of your Administration Screen. Do you see the categories listed in the sidebar now? Great. If you are missing a category, that usually means that there are no posts in it. This is the default function of WordPress, so not to worry. When you add a post to the “missing” category, it will appear on your web pages. Click on one of the categories and you will be taken to a page for just that category. You should see the posts that went into that category. This is a generated Category page. Now, click on the Archives for the month showing. Now you are visiting a generated page of your posts listed in chronological order for this month – well, specifically for today only. Two methods of finding the same information.
What Is Next
You’ve now done all the basics for your new WordPress website. You know how to write a post, create a category, and how to view your site’s information by category and archive. You can start the customization process, and when you are done, don’t forget to delete your test posts! Then start writing some wonderful information to share with your new-found public!
Using WordPress Themes
There are hundreds of WordPress Themes to choose from. All do basically the same thing but graphically present the information in a myriad of ways. Choose a few that look interesting to you, and meet your audience’s needs and your desires, and then test drive them following the test drive instructions above. Click through the whole site, the categories and archives as well as the individual posts to see how the Theme handles each one. The look may be nice on the front page, but if it handles things in a way you don’t like on the single post, then you will have to dig into the code and make changes. Not ready for that, try another theme.
Creating your own Theme
If you are familiar with CSS, HTML, and even PHP and MySQL, consider either customizing the Theme to your own needs or creating your own Theme.
Using WordPress Plugins
WordPress Plugins are also known as add-ons or extensions. They are software scripts that add functions and events to your website. They cover the gamut from up-to-date weather reports to a simple organization of your posts and categories. Plugins are designed by volunteer contributors and enthusiasts who like challenges and problem-solving. They are usually fairly simple to install through the WordPress Admin Plugin Screen, just follow the instructions provided by the plugin author. Remember, these are free and non-essential. If you have any problems with plugins, contact the plugin author’s website or plugin source first, then search the Internet for help with that specific plugin, and if you haven’t found a solution, then visit the WordPress forums for more help.
Creating your own Plugin
If you are familiar with PHP, HTML, and maybe even MySQL, you may be able to customize WordPress to work the way you want by creating your own Plugin.
Above and Beyond the Basics

For example, look at some of the entries under the WordPress.org Theme Showcase. All have a different look and different functions on their sites.
