Rockstar WordPress Designer Review

Posted by on Feb 11, 2009 in Uncategorized | No Comments

I am a WordPress fanatic and everything I’ve learned about WordPress has been from getting in there and playing with it. If I’ve ever wondered how to do something, I would look it up online and see what others have done. So, when I saw this book, Rockstar WordPress Designer, I was a little skeptical of purchasing it because I thought it would be a waste of money. What did this offer that I couldn’t find in some forum or online?
Well, I’m glad I did because it really helped me see the process of implementing WordPress on a site in a more practical manner. It helped me understand items that I have overlooked and thought I didn’t need to understand. It takes the hands on approach of teaching you, which I like. With the purchase of the book, you also get sample files and the themes that they cover.
I consider myself to be advanced with WordPress but I still found a lot of value in this book. Plus, It gives you some great tips on how you could use WP in different ways, such as a membership site, membership directory, e-commerce, and more.
If you are new to WP, this book is a must. If you have experience with WP, this book is also a must.
Here is a brief description of the book from their website.

Managing web content has always been tricky, but with WordPress, any web designer can have a flexible, free and powerful CMS to use not just on blogging projects, but on all sorts of websites. In How To Be a Rockstar WordPress Designer you will learn step by step how to take a straight HTML site and power it with WordPress.

During the course of the book you’ll build THREE WordPress themes, a blog, a portfolio site and a general site with menus and submenus. Each theme demonstrates different aspects of WordPress theming and all three are packaged in with the book so you’ll have Photoshop, HTML, CSS and WordPress PHP files to refer to.
