I think in the last week I’ve changed almost everything on my website in such small ways that it’s barely noticeable but adds to a better overall look. I definitely spent too much time on little things that did not need them (my home page) but I’ve learned a lot more about WordPress so a win is still a win.
I decided to make things harder for myself so I placed my sidebar in the middle which my theme did not enjoy. I didn’t have too much to add to it just yet since the website was just made but I hope to populate it a bit more. For now, it just has the premade blocks to display your categories and recent posts. Then because I spent too much time looking at it I wanted to add some flare I learnt how to do some small HTML coding and added some border and background effects to the text.
For the plugins task, I chose to add the Accessibility Checker. I remember that we briefly mentioned it during one of our cohort meetings and thought it would be a good one to try out. I’m still working on fixing the entire website because there are a lot of small things that are easy to assume would be easily accessible and are very much not.
I think I’m most excited to learn more about graphic design because I enjoy creating. I already know how to use a few applications but I’ve always wanted to spend more time really learning about it so this would be fun for me.
