Masto pals, does anyone know of a good, but inexpensive resource to learn #HTML and/or #PHP specifically for their application to #WordPress?

I'm more looking for online courses or tutorials vs books and I don't have any prior #programming or #markup languages knowledge. I do have basic WordPress knowledge.

Suggestions appreciated.

@carolynaluna Codebar have some free introductory tutorials for HTML and PHP that could give you a basis to start from. They’re not Wordpress specific, they’re more foundational. https://tutorials.codebar.io

I’m also happy to help if there’s anything specific you’re working towards.

@garrettc Thank you, garrett! Grateful to have this resource. To your last point, my issue is that I outsourced my WordPress site creation to an overseas developer that I don't have access to anymore. It's a custom theme & there's code on the backend that plug-ins don't address that I'd like to learn how to do myself. But I have been vacillating on whether it might be best to just start from scratch. How much of a lift would you say it is to learn HTML for a person who has never used it before?
@carolynaluna not a huge lift at all. HTML (and CSS) are fairly simple in concept, and browsers are very forgiving. They will try their best to display something. PHP is slightly trickier in that the syntax has to be correct, but it’s all doable.
@carolynaluna Those tutorials start off from the position of the student not knowing anything, so you’ll soon get a feel for whether it’s something you want to dive into.
@garrettc This is super helpful, garrett. Thank you! I'm intimidated by the lift, but ultimately I think it makes sense if I want to be able to handle website things on my own.
@carolynaluna My
pleasure. And as I said, if you need any pointers feel free to give me a shout.
