At first I assumed building this website would be easy, sadly I was mistaken. It was a tricky thing to and took a lot of time to figure out how to complete specific tasks or how to get certain things to work. But all in all, I’ve definitely learnt a thing or two.<\/p>\n
Constructing the layout and the basic functions was not as easy as I first expected. The first thing I did was try to add all the pages I needed. To do this, I checked the specification for exactly how many pages I needed. I found that I should have:<\/p>\n
I then had to figure out how to actually add these pages. It was straight forward adding the pages, my first real struggle came with being able to find them once I had created them. I could see them when editing but not when the site was running. I realised quickly that I needed to add menus so that people could navigate easily through the site.Let me just say, it was a nightmare. Once I added a menu they were all in the wrong order, then one would disappear and another would load. When I finally got it all sorted I then had to create a drop down for my two reviews. Compared to the rest of it this was relatively easy, I just had to add the two pages to the “parent page” which was the main review page.<\/p>\n
Once I had the skeleton of my website I decided it needed to look a little better. I chose a theme I liked and then had to re-edit my menu because after changing the style, the pages had re-arranged themselves.<\/p>\n
The next problem I had was changing the header photos. It worked for a few of my pages but when I did the same thing, it didn’t work on other pages. This issue is still not 100% resolved however because of time constraints I chose to leave it as the content of my website was more important.<\/p>\n
Actually writing the articles to go into my website was probably the easiest part of the whole coursework. It was also the most enjoyable because I got to research about things I had not considered before. The only set back I had was when I had to write about myself, it always seems to be the hardest thing to do but the easiest once you get started.<\/p>\n
Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n In conclusion, I did not enjoy using WordPress. It was temperamental and confusing, and really needs to expand on its helping section.
