  • About this weblog

    "WordPress From the beginning" is written by a French web developer and teacher currently based in Switzerland.

    Originally planned in french, both blog and its functions were developped in this language. This explains why not all functions are available in the English version.

    However, new translated articles are regularly posted for use by the wordpress' web community.
