2,435 PointsShould i move onto the WooCommerce?
HI,
I did tutorial with Zac Bootstrap to WP and now i did practice it and understood it quite well, although comments and search isnt my storng side, but i qould make a simple blog remembering the stuff .
So, would be a good idea to move into WooCommerce so i can learn even more about WP and then do all the rest of the track? and parctice it , and practice.

Woocommerce is pretty easy to learn. One of the easiest carts to use. Just buy a skin. Then use visual composer done. Beautiful website. Then also buy a nivoslider plugin. You got yourself a page that looks like everyone else zero code. Just shortcodes and some coding.

2,435 Pointsxd i want to write the code and learn about it
Konrad Pilch
2,435 PointsI know PHP basics. I know little jQuery . But i take that in advice and id look at it after i finish with WP .
But what you said about the composer? etc..? if that would sell, then that would be alright xd me personaly want to be a good programmer, but anything i could make money now would super help me.

2,435 PointsMy plan is to make WordPress themes form scratch and earn from them for survivol and save as well. Get a part time job and while i can survive, learn e.g JS and Rails, i dont want to get into laravel now, id preffer Rails over it atm .
Im hoping i can make websites soon , and when i get the WooCommerce skill needed, sell that as well and make my mum one too whcih would be the first one thats good practice .
Hopefuly i would be ble to get a job since i would learn a lot form the seniors that are there.

22,831 PointsYeah well WooCommerce is really a good thing to learn to work with and to implement in your template's especially when your interested in making webshops with Wordpress :)
Konrad Pilch
2,435 PointsSound cool :) I have a plan to make a webshop as soon as i can .
Other than that, im trying to figure out if anything i learn there would help me here , i need to re-do this site , but im not sure about the login, rigsiter team, forgot password, and that stuff.

2,435 PointsOh right. So basically it has just some extra features and stuff ? I can make pretty blog and or so from skratch since i practiced it quite a bit , so i though if i move into WooCommerce , im gonna discover more and if i want to make soemthing else, like maybe login? or whatever, im gonna have mroe knowledge etc.. a lil messy but i hope you know what i mean. Ill deffo go for it and see.
