New Video Class: Build a WordPress Recipe Directory

WordPress can be used for a lot of things, including a directory site.

In this class, Topher demonstrates this style of site as he creates a recipe directory website using a plugin called Simmer and the Make theme.

Topher also covers how to take a local site you’ve built using Desktop Server and push it to the web. Finally, Topher talks about how you can add SEO and user-contributed recipes.
