Theme Development

I’m currently working a simple black and white theme for this blog. While I’m working out the kinks, you may see some minor changes. Don’t fret, it will be finished soon enough!

WordPress Theme Development

Tuesday, February 5th, 2008

Recently I’ve spent some time delving into the innards of how WordPress works. Nothing too complex, just changing bits and pieces in the theme I use to make it a bit more personable. While editing the theme files I realised that I know very little about how a theme is constructed.

I had a look at the WordPress Codex, and while it gives some general information about how to build a theme, it doesn’t really provide step by step instructions that would help a novice such as myself to get started in theme development. With the help of Google, I found WPDesigner with a step by step tutorial on designing a WordPress theme.

I haven’t finished the entire tutorial set yet, but it looks very promising.
