Workshop on Wordpress CMS
WordPress is a free and open-source content management system based on PHP & MySQL. Features include a plugin architecture and a template system. It is most associated with blogging but supports other types of web content including more traditional mailing lists and forums, media galleries, and online stores.
More than 25 percent of the websites in the world are powered by WordPress CMS. While most SMEs will naturally choose WordPress as their choice of platform to build their websites, when developed properly, WordPress is a suitable tool to run large enterprises’ websites too.
