Also, I do not plan on doing much if any php customization. The Wordpress track does cover some php functions specific to Wordpress. However, if you want to get into theme or plugin development, you are better off mastering PHP first. Good luck!

Treehouse Guest TeacherTechnically the WordPress Development tracks assumes you know PHP so I would suggest taking one or two of the basic PHP courses first. The whole track isn't really necessary although you may want to take some more advanced PHP courses when you get to the Plugin course.
