In reply to: client adding blog postThank you all. Each response was helpful. May I clarify my question a bit?
I have a client who blogs. She and I are the only registered users. She wants to add blog posts without relying on me, but she is very intimidated by the WordPress dashboard.
So I guess my question is this: is there way to offer her a different avenue for blogging? Or does she absolutely have to go through the dashboard?
I’ve got follow-up questions if you all don’t mind.

In reply to: Adding custom code to on a per page basisThank you BC.
I see your point about not needing to use the <head>.
I should have been more specific when I first asked this question. What I want to do is display a different main navigation menu depending on what page is being viewed. I assume that what you and Joy have told me already still applies, but if you know of a more efficient way to do this, that would be great too.
Otherwise, it looks like I need to use a combination of if/then/else and the is_*() queries. I was just reading through the list of is_*() queries and I see I can use is_single() and is_home(). Can I query based on the specific name of a page – as I named it in the dashboard?

In reply to: Adding custom code to on a per page basisHello Joy and thank you.
I’m fairly new to WordPress and your response was a bit for me to digest.
Maybe I could approach it like this. Suppose I want to declare a PHP variable in the <head> and then echo it later on the page? What would you suggest?

In reply to: Add widgets to custom footerWell, I guess I’m trying to eliminate all (or as much as possible) reliance on the theme. Ultimately, I only want to use WordPress for the database and a few widgets. I would like to code all the rest of the site myself (or most of it).
Am I approaching this wrong?

In reply to: Add widgets to custom footerHi again. One last question. I hope I’m not going to the well to often here.
I’ve been studying these two pages:
https://developer.www.ads-software.com/reference/functions/the_widget/
https://developer.www.ads-software.com/reference/classes/wp_nav_menu_widget/I was hoping there would be one PHP line for the main navigation, something like this:
<?php the_widget( ‘WP_Nav_Menu_Widget’ ); ?>No luck. Is this possible?
Thanks-

In reply to: Add widgets to custom footerMan you’re fast! ??
I installed it through the WordPress dashboard –> Plugins.

In reply to: Add widgets to custom footerHello again. Can I ask one more follow up question on this topic?
Where would I find the PHP code for a custom widget that I installed – not a default WordPress widget?
Thank you again!

In reply to: Add widgets to custom footerThanks again Steven. I probably should have realized that.

In reply to: Add widgets to custom footerAhhh. That’s perfect. Thanks Alex.
If you don’t mind, is one method or the other considered better?
