Logging Into Your Dashboard
You should have received an email from WordPress with your new username and a temporary password like what’s shown below. If you haven’t received this email, please contact grant@kcwebdesigner.com or phil@kcwebdesigner.com and we will set you up with account access.
Click the reset link “to set your password”. In the next window, WordPress will auto-populate a password for you, but highlight over this and delete it. Then enter in a strong password that utilizes capital and lower-case letters, numbers and special characters.
Once you’ve submitted your new password, click the small login text to access your login screen and input in your username (in your email) and your newly created password.
In the future, to log in to the dashboard/backend of your new website, you’ll need to access the login screen. The login screen for your website will always be your domain URL (web address) with “/wp-admin” added to the end. For example: www.yourwebaddress.com/wp-admin. Without the “/wp-admin”, you will not be able to log in.
Your login will look like the image below.

Lost Your Password?
If you forget your password, click the “Lost your password?” text link. On the next page, enter your username and click “Get New Password”. You should receive a link to create a new password via email.
If all else fails, please contact grant@kcwebdesigner.com or phil@kcwebdesigner.com to reset your password.
Using The Admin Bar
If you can see the Admin bar (as shown below) you are already logged into your WordPress Dashboard.

WordPress Basics
Before beginning, it’s really important to understand the di erence between pages and posts.
Your website will consist of any number of web pages containing updatable content. One of the pages is the blog page (unless you’ve chosen not to run a blog/news page). The blog page can sometimes be set as the home page or it might be a completely separate page called News, instead of Blog.
Posts
Posts are often dated and appear in reverse chronological order; as you publish new posts, older posts get pushed down the page. Each and every post is individually indexed by search engines.
Pages
Pages are more permanent. Typical examples would be your Home page, About us, Contact Us, etc. Here’s a good explanation from WordPress.com: “Once you publish them, they stay put. They’re handy for timeless content, like an About or Contact Me section. This stu probably isn’t going to change very often, and you want your visitors to be able to access it easily no matter where they are on your site. Your pages are displayed in a menu somewhere on your site that’s always visible (usually up near your header or in a sidebar), so people can explore your site with ease.”
Before updating your website, be clear in your mind about the task you wish to perform. Are you updating a page or a post?
5
Editing Pages
You must be logged in to edit pages. Note that editing pages or posts is quite similar to working with a Word doc. You have a toolbar with which to edit your content (see page 7).
Method 1 – from the Dashboard
- Click Pages (left sidebar)
- Click the name of the page to be edited from the list of pages
- Edit as required and click the Update button (don’t forget to do this!) – Update is equivalent to Saving and committing your changes to the live site!
Method 2 – from the Admin Bar
- Go to the page to be edited (on the live website and you must be logged in)
- Click Edit Page (top right of Dashboard Admin Bar)
- Edit as required and click the Update button (don’t forget to do this!) – Update is equivalent to Saving and committing your changes to the live site!

Writing Blog Posts
You must be logged in to create a blog post. Note that editing pages or posts is quite similar to working with a Word doc. You have a toolbar with which to edit your content (see page 7).
Method 1 – from the Dashboard
- Click Posts (left sidebar)
- Click Add New
- Add a title and post content and style how you’d like
- Select a relevant category from the Cateogory box on the right (if required)

The WordPress Toolbar
The following will explain the various options on the toolbar. Some you’ll use, others you’ll never need.
Color Key for button usage: Recommended, Sometimes useful, Usually avoid, Mostly avoid.
As in word processing, it’s essential to carefully select the text or to position the cursor rst. Note that some formats are applied to entire paragraphs only (e.g. button 15).
Toolbar Row 1
- Bold 2. Italic 3. Strikethrough (cross out) 4. Bullets – Recommended for lists (unordered) 5. Numbering – Recommended for ordered lists 6. Blockquote (applied to paragraphs) Primarily used to indicate a block of quoted text or similar. By default paragraphs will usually become indented. Special styles can be designed for this. 7. Left, (8) Centre & (9) Right Align -Should be rarely used as your website design should determine this automatically in most cases. 10. Insert/Edit Link – Use whenever possible to link text to another web page. 11. Unlink – use to remove a link 12. Insert More tag – Useful for shortening the display of long blog posts on the blog summary page, by displaying a ‘Read more’ link to view the full post. 13. Distraction Free Writing mode –enlarges the editing area to ll the browser window. Look for the ”Exit fullscreen” text link to exit this mode. Hover and move your mouse above your post if you can’t nd the Exit link. 14. Show/Hide Kitchen Sink – Simply turns on and o the display of the second row of buttons. We recommend keeping the second row permanently displayed.
8
Color Key for button usage: Recommended, Sometimes useful, Usually avoid, Mostly avoid.
Toolbar Row 2
- Preformatted styles – Use this button to switch between heading and paragraph styles. The resulting look of your headings will be determined by the styles set by your web designer. 16. Underline – Mostly avoid because underlined text often suggests linked text. (Linked text will automatically be styled by your website theme).
- Align full (justify) – Aligns text to both the left and right margins, adding extra space between words as necessary – a popular style used by newspaper columns. Usually avoid this button (as with 7, 8 & 9) as your website style usually determines alignment automatically. 18. Text color – use sparingly or you may damage the consistent look of your website.
- Paste as Plain Text – When pasting text from elsewhere, this button will strip out all formatting and extra code, resulting in plain text which you can then format yourself within WordPress. 20. Paste from Word – intended for pasting content from Microsoft Word (brings formatting too). Not always successful though!
- Remove Formatting – does exactly what it says. Handy for clearing all the formats from selected text in one go. 22. Insert Custom Character – handy for adding unusual text characters such as copyright symbols and letters with accents.
- Decrease Indent (Outdent) -decreases the indent level of a paragraph 24. Increase Indent – Increases the indent level of a paragraph 25. Undo – a very useful button! Whilst editing, actions can be reversed. Note that actions cannot be undone once the post or page is published or updated. As with other software packages, the invaluable keyboard shortcut CTRL + Z also works! 26. Redo – the opposite of 25 above. 27. Help – further explanation of how the editing feature operates, with a list of useful shortcut keys (hotkeys).
9
The Add Media button (above the editing toolbars). Use this for inserting images and PDF documents into your content.
Adding HTML Links
HTML links allow your visitors to easily navigate your site or when you want to allow them to download les from your site, such as PDF’s. Any link you create will automatically be styled according to your custom-built theme.
Inserting an html link in your Page or Post to one of your own pages or another site is extremely easy. Simply click and drag the cursor to highlight the text you want turned into a link and
then click the Insert/Edit link button ( ). A small inline link toolbar will display where you can enter your link URL (we recommend copying and pasting in the URL). If you enter a URL without including ‘http://’ in front of it, WordPress will automatically correct it for you. As an example, if you type ‘google.com’ it will automatically correct this to ‘http://google.com’. After you’ve entered your link url, hit your Enter key or click the Apply button ( ) to save your changes.
10
If you don’t select any text prior to clicking the Insert/edit link button, it will use the URL that you enter as the link text.
You can also insert a link to one of your existing Posts or Pages by simply typing the Post or Page name and then selecting it from the list that displays. As you type the Post/Page name, the list will re-populate based on matching results.
If you wish to display the pop-up window that previously displayed prior to WordPress 4.5, click
the Link options icon ( ). This pop-up is also useful if you wish to have your link open in a new tab/window when clicked as it gives you access to the “Open link in a new tab” checkbox.
If you’re displaying the pop-up window, simply ll in URL and the Title and then click the Add Link button.
- URL – URL of the page or website that you would like to create a link to
- Link Text – The text that you highlighted prior to clicking the Insert/edit link button will be automatically displayed
- Open link in a new tab – When someone clicks the link you can have it open in the same window (default setting) or have it open in a new browser window/tab Alternatively, if you’d like to add a link to one of your existing Posts or Pages, select the relevant page from the supplied list. If you have a large number of pages within your site, you can type the Page or Post name in the Search eld to make it easier to nd. As you type, the list will re- populate based on matching results. After selecting one of your existing pages, the link will be updated in the URL eld. Click the Add Link button to add your link.
11
Adding Links To Media Files
Adding a link to media les such as documents or PDF’s is just as easy as adding a standard html link. There are a couple of ways you can go about it.
Click the Add Media button ( ) and then simply drag your le from wherever it is on your computer, into the browser window. Your le will be automatically uploaded.
Alternatively, click the Select Files button and then select the le that you’d like to upload, using the dialog window that is displayed.
Once your le is uploaded, your Media Library, which contains all your previously uploaded les, is displayed. The le that you’ve just uploaded will be automatically ‘selected’ for easy insertion into your Page or Post.
Update the Title for your le. The Title will be used for the text link when it’s inserted into your content. From the Link To dropdown list, select Media File. The eld just below this will be automatically populated with the URL for the le.
Click the Insert into post button to insert a link to the selected le in your Post at the current 12
cursor position (when editing a Page, this button will say Insert into page). If you happen to know the URL for the media le that you’d like to link to or if you’d like to create
a link on some existing text, simply click and drag the cursor and highlight the text that you
want turned into a link and then click the Insert/edit link button ( ). Just like previously, when adding a simple HTML link, enter the URL to your media le and then click the Add Link button. A standard html link will be created that links to the media le that you speci ed.
Editing An HTML Link
To edit an html link, click the link within your Page/Post that you’d like to edit to display an inline
link toolbar. Once the toolbar appears, click the Edit button ( ) to display the edit eld. The pop-up window will be just like the pop-up that appeared when you originally inserted the link.
Alternatively, click the link to position the cursor somewhere within it and then click the Insert/ edit link button ( ) on the main Visual Editor toolbar.
13
After you’ve updated the link url, hit your Enter key or click the Apply button ( ) to save your changes. If you wish to display the Insert/edit link pop-up window click the Link options icon
( ).
Removing An HTML Link
To remove an html link, click the link within your Page/Post that you’d like to remove to display
an inline link toolbar. Once the toolbar appears, click the Remove button ( ) to remove the link.
14
Alternatively, click the link to position the cursor somewhere within it and then click the Remove
link button ( ) on the main Visual Editor toolbar. If you want to remove a link from an image,
simply click the image once to select it and then click the Remove link button ( ) on the main Visual Editor toolbar. If the html link is linking to an uploaded le or image, clicking the Remove link button won’t remove or delete that le, it will simply remove the hyperlink.
Editing Existing Content
To edit an existing page, navigate to Page or Post and simply click on the relevant Page/Post title, when viewing your list of Pages or Posts. Alternatively, click on the Edit link that appears beneath the title when hovering your cursor over each row.
Deleting Content
If you wish to delete one of your Pages or Posts, click on the Trash link that appears beneath the title when hovering your cursor over each row. This will move the Page/Post to the Trash.
15
To delete the Page/Post permanently or to restore the Page/Post, click the Trash link at the top of the screen. When the cursor is hovering over each item in the Trash, the Restore and Delete Permanently links appear. Click Delete Permanently to permanently remove a single Page or Post. Clicking Restore will restore the Page or Post.
If you would like to permanently delete or restore numerous items at once, click the checkboxes next to the items you would like to delete or restore and then choose either Restore or Delete Permanently from the Bulk Actions dropdown list at the top of the page. After selecting the appropriate action click the Apply button to make your change. Alternatively, click the Empty Trash button to delete all the items in the Trash.
Saving & Publishing Content
Once you’ve added all your content to your Page or Post you have the option of Saving the Page as a Draft or Publishing the page. Clicking the Save Draft button will simply save your Page/Post. This is handy if you would like to come back at a later date to add more content or if you’re simply not ready to publish yet.
16
Clicking the Publish button will save your Page/Post and publish it on your website. Clicking the Preview button will show you a preview of the current Page/Post.
There are also several options available when saving. By default the Status is set to Draft but this can be changed by clicking the Edit link just to the right of Status: within the Publish panel.
- Pending Review means the draft is waiting for review by an editor prior to publication.
- Draft means the post has not been published and remains a draft for you. You can also change the visibility of the Page by clicking the Edit link just to the right of Visibility: within the Publish panel.
- Public is the default and means the page is viewable to all. There is also an option to make the Post ‘sticky’. Sticky posts are placed at the top of all blog posts and stay there even after new posts are published.
- Password Protected allows you to assign a password to your page. Only people who have the password will be able to access the page.
- Private hides the content from the public completely. Normal users and visitors will not be aware of private content. You will only see the private content when you are logged into your site. Just below the Title for your content is the full URL for your Page or Post. Clicking this will take you to the published page, or if the page hasn’t been published yet, a preview of the page. Clicking the Edit button next to the URL allows you to change the Permalink (i.e. the URL) of the Page or Post. Most times, you’ll simply leave the default URL which WordPress automatically generates based on your Page/Post Title. By default, when you click the Publish button your Page/Post is published immediately. To change this, click the Edit link just to the right of Publish immediately within the Publish panel. You can then select the date and time that you’d like to schedule your Page/Post to be published. You must also click the Publish button when you have updated the date and time elds to publish at the desired date and time. *Note: We never recommend pre-dating posts (in the future). This can cause some hanky things to happen so avoid dating your pages or posts for future dates. Instead, save them as a Draft, and Publish them when you’re ready. You can change dates on previous posts as long as they are the current date and back with no issues.
17
Using The Text Editor
At the top right of the editor there are two tabs, Visual and Text ( ). These switch the editor view between the Visual Editor and the Text editor. The Text view will enable you to view the HTML code that makes up your content. For the more experienced users this can be helpful at times, but for those not familiar with HTML tags, it’s not recommended.
The Text editor is much like the Visual Editor, only not as intuitive. The numerous formatting buttons provide you with basic HTML formatting capabilities when editing your Page or Post content.
The buttons work in two ways. Clicking a button without highlighting any text rst, will simply insert the opening HTML tag relevant for that button. As an example, clicking the Bold button will insert the HTML tag into your text. Clicking the Bold button again will close the tag by inserting the closing tag. If you highlight some text prior to clicking a button, both the opening and closing tags will be inserted around that highlighted text. For example, highlighting the text, ‘bold text’, prior to clicking the Bold button will insert ‘bold text’.
*Note: If you don’t see your text in the Visual tab, it’s likely because the text is colored white making it blend with the editor background. Simply click in the editor and drag your mouse to highlight. If there is text there, you’ll see it and can now edit it.
18
Reviewing Past Revisions
When you’re editing your Post or Page, the number of revisions for that particular Post or Page is shown in the Publish Panel, if you have any.
Click the Browse link next to Revisions: in the Publish panel to browse through the various revisions for the current Post or Page.
Use the slider at the top of the page or click the Previous and Next buttons to navigate through your various Post or Page revisions.
Content that has been deleted will be shaded red and content that has been added will be
19
shaded green. If there is content that is shaded dark red and/or dark green, it’s highlighting speci c content that was removed or added. If the paragraph or line is simply light red and/or light green, then the whole paragraph or line was a ected by the change.
You can also compare two di erent revisions by clicking the Compare any two revisions checkbox at the top of the page.
If you’d like to restore a previous revision, click the Restore This Revision button.
Inserting Images
Using the WordPress media manager, it’s extremely simple to insert, align and link your individual images and image galleries.
To insert an image into your Page/Post, click the Add Media button ( ) and then simply drag your image(s) from wherever they are on your computer, into the browser window. Your le(s) will be automatically uploaded.
Alternatively, click the Select Files button and then select the le(s) that you’d like to upload, using the dialog window that is displayed.
It’s also possible to simply drag your image straight into the Visual Editor, rather than clicking the Add Media button.
20
No matter whether you’ve clicked the Add Media button or simply dragged and dropped your image into the Visual Editor, once your image is uploaded, your Media Library is displayed, which contains all your previously uploaded images. The image(s) that you’ve just uploaded will be automatically ‘selected’ for easy insertion into your Page or Post. Selected images are shown with a ‘tick’ icon in the top right corner of the image.
After uploading your image(s), you can then select other previously uploaded images by holding down the Ctrl key (Cmd key on Macs) and simply clicking on them. To deselect an image, click the ‘tick’ in the top right corner of the image.
At the bottom of the window you will see a count of the number of images currently selected.
There are several options within this Insert Media window to help make it easier to add images into your Page or Post.
By default, all previously uploaded images are shown, starting with the most recent uploads. If you’d like to narrow this list down, at the top of the window is a dropdown list that allows you to lter your displayed images by All media items, items Uploaded to this post/page, or Images, Audio les, Video les or Unattached les. You can also lter your media les by selecting a date, or alternatively, there is also a Search eld that allows you to search for speci c images.
21
The properties of the currently highlighted image (i.e. The image with the blue border) will be shown on the right-hand side of the Insert Media window. These properties include the lename, the date the le was uploaded and the image size. It’s at this point you can also change the image Title, Caption, Alt Text and Description for each image, as well as the Alignment, Link and the Size at which the image is inserted.
- Title – is displayed as a tooltip when the mouse cursor hovers over the image in the browser
- Caption – is displayed underneath the image as a short description. How this displays will be dependent on the WordPress theme in use at the time. You can also include basic HTML in your captions
- Alt Text – is displayed when the browser can’t render the image. It’s also used by screen readers for visually impaired users so it’s important to ll out this eld with a description of the image. To a small degree, it also plays a part in your website Search Engine Optimisation (SEO). Since search engines can’t ‘read’ images they rely on the Alt Text
- Description – is usually displayed on the attachment page for the media, however this is entirely up to the theme that is currently in use
22
For each image, you can select how you would like the image aligned, either Left, Center or Right aligned, using the Alignment dropdown list. You can also select None for no alignment which will mean the image will display using the default alignment setting for your custom site. *Note: we recommend leaving the alignment alone by the default setting.
You can also change what your inserted image(s) will link to using the Link To dropdown list. You have the choice of linking to the image’s attachment page by selecting Attachment Page, or you can link to the full size image by selecting Media File. You can also link to any URL by selecting Custom URL. When you do this, a new eld will appear that allows you to enter in the custom URL. You can also choose not to link to anything by selecting None.
When your image(s) are uploaded, WordPress will also create several copies of your le at various sizes. You can choose which one you’d like to insert into your Page or Post using the Size dropdown list. To insert the image at the exact size you uploaded, simply select Full Size. Next to each size listed in this dropdown will be the actual dimensions of the image, in pixels (e.g. 300 x 225).
Once you’ve selected all your images, click the Insert into post button to insert the selected image(s) into your Post at the current cursor position (when editing a Page, this button will say Insert into page).
23
If you’d like to change the order of your images, click the Edit Selection link at the bottom of the Insert Media window. The window will change so that only the selected images are shown. Alternatively, clicking the Clear link will deselect all images.
After clicking the Edit Selection link at the bottom of the Insert Media window, all the currently selected images are shown. You can change the order in which the images will appear in your Page or Post by clicking and dragging each image to reorder them. You can also update the image Title, Caption, Alt Text and Description for each image. To remove one of your selected images, click the small “ – “ that appears in the top right corner of the image when you hover your cursor over the tick.
Clicking the Return to library button will take you back to the previous screen that allows you to select or deselect your images.
When you’re editing your Post/Page, if you wish to insert an image that you uploaded earlier
(as opposed to uploading a new image), click the Add Media button again ( ). Once the pop-up window displays, click the Media Library tab at the top of the pop-up window rather than dragging a new le into the upload window. All your previously uploaded images will be displayed, with the most recent ones shown rst.
24
Select the image(s) that you’d like to insert into your Page or Post and then simply click the Insert into post button (or if you’re editing a Page, this button will say Insert into page). As mentioned earlier, you can also click the Edit Selection link at the bottom of the window if you’d like to change the order the images are inserted.
Widgets
Widgets are independent sections of content that can be placed into any widgetized area provided by your theme. Although these widgetized areas are commonly called ‘Sidebars’ and are quite often located in the left or right-hand column, they can be also located anywhere within your site and are entirely dependent on the current theme as to their location. Lots of themes use these widgetized sidebars in the footer area.
There are numerous widgets available by default which allow you to add extra content to your site, such as Recent Comments, Categories or Custom Menus, just to name a few. New Widgets can also be installed via plugins and again, depending what the plugin is used for, the extra functionality it brings to your site will vary.
25
The Available Widgets section contains all the widgets you may choose from. To populate one of your Sidebars, drag and drop a widget to the desired location. Once the Widget is dragged to a Sidebar, the widget will open up to allow you to con gure its settings. Click the Save button within the Widget to save your settings.
If you want to remove a widget from a Sidebar but save its settings for future use, drag it into the Inactive Widgets section. If you simply want to delete the Widget from your Sidebar, click the Delete link within the Widget.
The small arrow next to the Sidebar title will toggle the sidebar open and closed. If you drag and drop a widget onto a closed sidebar, the sidebar and widget will automatically open.
26
Cloning A Page
This section is only for those who have the Cloning plugin built into their custom theme. If you do not, you can skip this section.
This plugin allows you to clone a post or page, or edit it as a new draft, which can be very useful if you have a large site with a lot of posts or pages. It’s also very useful if you need the exibility to duplicate page structure without having to know how to code!
Find the post or page you’d like to clone. Hover over the post or page title to reveal the Clone option. Click Clone and an a new Draft page will be created with the exact name, only this time, “ – Draft “ will follow the name, as shown on the next page. Pages are listed alphabetically so you may have to search for your newly cloned page.
27
Now, hover over the title of your newly cloned page Draft to reveal the Quick Edit option. Clicking the Quick Edit link will reveal an editor window as show below.
- In the Title area, enter a title for you new page. You should make this new and di erent than other pages your site currently contains.
- Copy this new name and paste it into the Slug This will become the URL of your new page and is why it should match the page title.
- Click Update to update the Draft to re ect the new title and permalink.
- Click on the title of your newly named page to edit the conten as explained on page 14.
28
Adding A New User
To add a new user, click on the Add New link in the left-hand navigation menu or the Add New button at the top of the page.
Once the above page is displayed, simply ll in the various elds and click the Add New User button.
- Username – (mandatory) Enter the username of the new user here. This will also be used as the Login name for the user. Once saved, the Username can’t be changed
- E-mail – (mandatory) Enter a valid email address of the new user here. The email address must be unique for each user. If a published Post or Page is authored by this user and approved comments are made to that post or page, a noti cation email is sent to this email address
- First Name – Enter the rst name of the new user here
- Last Name – Enter the last name of the new user in this text box
- Website – You may enter the new user’s website URL in this text box but it’s not needed
- Password – Clicking the Show password button will show you the password that has automatically been generated for the new user
- Send User Noti cation – When ticked, WordPress will send your new user an email about their account
- Role – Select the desired Role for this user from the dropdown list
29
WordPress will now automatically generate a strong password when you create a new user. Clicking the Show password button will display the password that was generated and if you want, will also allow you to change it. The password strength indicator, shown just below the password eld, must indicate at least Medium before WordPress will allow you to save the new user. It goes without saying, the stronger the password the more secure the login so it’s advisable that the strength indicator shows your password as being Strong. To make a password stronger, use upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols like ! ” ? $ % ^ & ).
*Note: If creating a new user for someone else, it’s best to enter in a username that includes their rst initial and last name (e.g. jsmith). Enter in their rst and last name and their email, and then select the Role they will have from the drop-down menu. Ignore the password and click the Add New User button.
WordPress will send an email noti cation to the email address you entered for the new users. Within that email will also be a link to reset their password so they can set their password to whatever they’d like.
