The category I created to start organizing my posts is titled “training updates”, as I hope to put all of the assigned training and activities into that category, and perhaps bigger projects into another. The new category is pictured below.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, my theme doesn’t come with a sidebar so I was unable to customize it at all. However, I was able to add the link to the training course onto the homepage (It’s linked into the menu page “DKC Training Page”).<\/p>\n

The plugin I activated for my site is the HD Quiz plugin because I thought it would be fun to test any of this site’s visitor’s knowledge on me. Go ahead and take it and see what you remember about me from my homepage!<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/h3>\n

While I wasn’t able to play around with the sidebar because the theme I have doesn’t have a sidebar, I was able to explore my options when it came to plugins and ended up finding one that lets me add interactable quizzes which I thought was really fun and interesting. The quiz is available on this post so feel free to give it a shot! Some things that I’m most looking forward to learning about (either by myself or through an appointment) are graphic design, infographic tools, and maybe 3D modeling? I have blender on my laptop and my plan was to teach me how to use it, so I might use that as an excuse to finally make the jump and do it. Either way, any kind of digital design I’ve always found interesting, and while it might not be something I want to go into in the professional world, I think having a proficiency in it will prove a good use of my time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
