Blogging Tips & Tricks
Some of us are new to WordPress, and some may be new to blogging entirely! On this page, we’ll collect some tips and tricks that will help us all enjoy our blogging more
. If you have a question or tip, please comment at the bottom of this page. Someone will find the answer to your questions, and we will incorporate the information into this page as we go!
Profile
When you log on, and have your dashboard open, look all the way to the right and you’ll see a link for “profile”. Click on the link and you’ll see your profile and personal options. You are completely in control of your own profile. Things you especially might want to consider: Add a picture, or some other icon to identify yourself – your avatar. This will avoid us having a bunch of empty silhouettes! If you need help creating a picture/icon, comment below and we’ll find you some help. Also – although you can’t change your username, you can change how your name displays when you write posts or make comments. You might consider using your first name, to make it personal, and because many of the folks here will know you. But, you should make your own decisions about identifying yourself. This blog is intended for our church members, but, in theory, anyone in the world can look at it.

So, I have never blogged before, but when I noticed this was on the BCC email, I decided to give it a try! Thanks, Resa for setting this up and I’m excited to participate in blogging more about the church and possibly get others interested so we can share our thoughts, especially in this time of exciting transitions.
Talk soon-Jessica
