I was just trying to be honest and give real answers. As far as you can’t learn to code from a book, no you can’t, but even the high end Ivy League Colleges still issue books.
A good book on how things work is a great way to get a feel for what and how coding works. Then apply that to what you are creating. Using the web will give you some good results on how to code a site, but you will have to bounce all over the place and save a ton of pages to favorites, then flop back and forth to get things right. Because a basic site with help creating your site will not explain the big issues i most cases. Sorry, but a few good books on coding will help ease that process as they explain in depth what each command does! You will not find what “li” does in the web! At least not in depth. If you just want the basics, use the “…For Dummies” books. Not the best, but they will give you easy to understand instructions on web design.

I am also trying to figure out what a “Programmer” has to do with web design? Are we trying to program our site to pick up ESPN? Or move the Queen to check? You don’t need to be a “programmer” to make a website. Now, if you wanna make a new MK game…….You do not need to program ( ehem..C++ anyone? ) a website, just learn to code it even if it’s just HTML.

Sorry Dustin, there is no software to make you a web designer. If you’re using WordPress things are much easier then other software to create sites. Best advice I can give is to get some good books on web design. As well as a few on coding with PHP, HTML, Java, and CSS.
Keep this in mind as well, if your a ‘web designer’, and you’re using pre-made templates for your customers ( especially free ones!!! ), you’re kind of ripping them off.
I was looking for a way to edit a PHP file safely last week, and came across this person asking how to add a banner/logo to his site, he included a link to his site in the post. I was floored when I clicked the link and it was to his “Web-Design” site. He was charging people to make their sites, and he couldn’t even add a banner/logo. What a scam!!
I am not trying to be judgmental here, but just because you can edit a theme, doesn’t mean you can be a web designer, and sorry no, there is no software that really teaches you how to code.

Thank You for the fast reply WPyogi. Noted and I edited the topic title. Sorry about that.

My host allows anything as long as it does not break my local and federal laws.
I just wanted to make sure I was not breaking WP.org rules.

On the other subject, I added an Age Verification plug-in, but it doesn’t seem to be working. For what it’s worth, I am pretty consciences about not having minors just be able to see the images. I have a static home page with a text warning, I would just like to have a little something extra.

Catacaustic couldn’t have said things any better! If you want people to visit your site, you have to write your own content. Simply leeching it from another site can be bad for your sites growth ( and illegal in some circumstances ), who wants to re-read the same story the same way.
Write it yourself and put your own spin on it.

I may be wrong here, and not to be a jerk, but knowing just a tad about coding, what you’re asking for would be a huge script to write, and would literally have to steal information from other web sites.
