Of Wigits, Wotsits and Learning Curves


Grrrrrrrrr ! Grump ! Gurgh-umpf ! Sigh ! Fiddlesticks and Gross Exasperation !

Who Knows (and isn't telling) - but maybe the intricacies (even basics would do for a start) of Blog layout (ok - 'design') will one day be unravelled by ChickPea…….tho 'Not Yet', you already understand........
Maybe - just maybe - the ‘widgets’, ‘feedjits’, 'whodunnits', ‘howonearthyits’ and ‘wotsits’ will actually, eventually be understood, selected and published as intended (rather than happening as Explorations, appearing On Screen as unequivocal Accidents and Then Becoming Permanent and, like Japanese Knotweed, deep rooted and fixed here till everlasting…….)
Please - PLEASE - tell ChickPea - just HOW does an Ignorant Imbecillic Computer Nobody learn all this jargon, get a handle on what is possible, track down a ‘How The F To Do It’ guidebook and tools – and then…. p’raps…… manage to DO it ?

(By the way - answers do not need a postcard – post a ‘comment’ ……….)

I've just been introduced to Wordpress as a "background" to the Parish Site. Very confusing! I ignore what I don't understand, write my words, and in the end folk read them.

The days when this stuff would rive me demented are long gone. Enough is enough. What I know now will do me just fine!

Thanks to You, The Dotterel, for your visit and advice to my piteous plea - now equipped with tools I shall hope to get time later to have another bash at the basics.....

Thanks to you too, Kenny, for your encouragement.

Tweaks will appear as ability accumulates.......
