@idid Yes that can be part of the course too, it's easy to implement and you won't even need to know any code, just your username. WordPress makes this easy

@Geoffrey-Gordon
maybe also a little bit of scripting/coding for those programs, particularly if there is any cons/limitation of their scripting interface or scripting function. thanks much!

This is really cool! And well-organized! Thank you!

Griffin McPherson

@Geoffrey-Gordon I would definitely be interested in this!

Neha Rawat

I am very interested. I am considering re-build my portfolio with wordpress. Thank you for doing this and let us know when it is ready. Looking forward to this.

Hello!! The agenda looks fantastic ! I am highly interested!
I am more of a tourist here* (real amateur doing art on the side) but tried (and failed) to build my own website. Would I be eligible to participate? I can throw some dollar amount into the tip jar!

(*) well... touring for 2 years now!!

Geoffrey Gordon

Thank you all for your comments, there is definitely a need, so I have begun the process of creating this resource. @Julia yes this course will be available to all in the SVS community. I will update progress bit by bit as I create this course.

Coley

Absolutely! Sounds wonderful.

burvantill

Oh my gosh yes!!!! That would be unbelievably generous and helpful and so welcome!!

Geoffrey Gordon

@burvantill Thanks, as one of the moderators, I will need your help to notify all members on the forum that it is available once completed. This will be open to everyone here on the SVS forum.

Geoffrey Gordon

I am pushing hard to have it ready by the first of October.

Rachel Horne

Wow that's amazing and so generous!

@Geoffrey-Gordon Hi there, I currently have a website with Squarespace which I pay for but I really like my website address, do you think this is something I can take with me if I leave them? Thank you!

Heather Boyd

I use a free wordpress website and it still frustrates me from time to time, so I would benefit from it and would pay a little as I am sure it would be worth it and it help you. And maybe eventually I will get my domain name.

@Rachel-Horne Don't worry, domain transfer is a thing

I am super excited for this class, can’t wait.

Rachel Horne

@NessIllustration Oh brilliant - thank you

Geoffrey Gordon

@NessIllustration Thanks for answering this question, perhaps I need to add how to transfer a domain as part of the course too. We are definitely going to need a forum section so learners can ask questions...
