I get tons of questions on a daily basis on Facebook regarding WordPress. Of course, there are a lot of groups on Facebook that are WordPress-related, but frankly, a lot of questions fall through the cracks, and some of the people I have run into just really have little knowledge about anything.
I am no elitist, but with millions of WordPress powered sites out on the Internet, there is a need for answering questions all about WordPress.
So, to direct people to asking their questions publicly, I have created a new Facebook group called All About WordPress. The group WILL have activities tied to Blondish.net and there will be a #WordPressWednesday issue started where I will share questions recently covered, and a little WordPress mashup.
If you use WordPress, design with WordPress, or develop with WordPress, please come on in. I have already started a Quick Reference document for anyone that may have a question that has been answered, or if they wish to jump into a discussion. There is also a document to list your WordPress site. One other document is topics you would like me to cover here on Blondish.net.
Again, please feel free to come over and join the Facebook group All About WordPress.
What other WordPress related groups are you a part of? What WordPress topics have you been wanting to hear about on Blondish.net?
Oh, I think, I should also join the group.
Do you think there will be a lot of useful things we can get in the new page they have created?
I definitely think anyone who wants to learn more about using WordPress can certainly learn from the group and even connect with other bloggers.
there is lots of option in wp thats why everyone recommend it!
Excellent and very important post. Thanks for such an useful information. It will be very useful for me and my site.Many thanks for this post.
I Visit many sites but This site article is very nice because this site content is very nice, thanks for good articles.
Your opinion is really beautiful, I wish you continued success. I hope your project is
What an excellent resource, Nile! I find the WordPress help facility useful, but often it gets into too much detail and can be hard to follow.
I also enjoy Terry Anglin’s sessions “WordPress/Blogging from the ground up” every Tuesday evening which you can access from http://alanjenkin.gvoacademy.com/#schedule. He is very patient in answering questions at all levels, from installing WordPress to the settings for the most useful plugins.
Thanks for forming this group – I’m looking forward to following it.

Nile, thanks for showing initiative and leadership! I can’t wait to be part of the group, and I already have a nice couple of questions ready to go! 🙂 I look very forward to joining!
I think most people who visit your article have really little knowledge about WordPress related Facebook groups. And I’m one of them. I’m glad I’ve seen this post, thanks for the link.
joined the group 🙂 Thanks 🙂
Very good group started by you Nile. I am on it. I think this group is good and precise for those interested in running smooth wordpress sites and get help from their pioneers. Cheers Nile.
Thanks Shalu! It seems to be going well and I hope to introduce some pretty cool activities that will only be available to the members of All About WordPress.
interesting information, I can learn a lot about wordpress .. thanks for share.
This should be an interesting group. See you all in the group…..time for me to go join it.
Most of the time I love WP but sometimes I hate it. Was trying to sort one of my contact pages out today and the text just wouldn’t go where I needed it to. Always the simple things that cause the most hassle.
Hi Nile,
I know of another blogger that did something similar on Facebook. He deals basically with blog theme design and I had a question about tweaks with my theme.
He answered my questions the same day.
Yes, I do that often, but I needed something more focused since it seemed to be a very common thing. I answer in many different places, but Facebook, I end up being contacted with a lot of questions…sometimes by the same people. This will at least give it that community feel so others can respond as well.
Great Information………Keep It Up…….!!!!
Great post. we use Adfly for advertising in eperiments but never used it as a publisher. After reading this and your other post we shall be looking into it and running a few more eperiments.
Nice idea Nile, I will join.
Thanks for accepting me in the facebook group. 🙂
You have said it right. We use wordpress but we don’t know much about it. Most of the times the people claiming to be seemingly all knowing don’t really know much. I for sure will definitely head out to clear my doubts in this all about wordpress group. Thanks for sharing!
Its amazing too see such tips and info here in this website thru help of Grravatar and thankx of wordpress.com too.
Definately i will surely join this website too.
Congratulations on creating a really useful resource group, I’ve just click through and joined, and now to spread the word 🙂
Awesome… glad to have you on board. 😀
A much needed group. It seems that each question I get an answer for three more questions pop up.
Well, bring those questions on. 🙂
nice job nile,
i have joined the group and enjoying the conversations. its really a great help for all of us having wordpress as platform
great blog.. i would definitely love to write guest post here..
I am curious to find out what blog platform you have been working with? I’m having some minor security problems with my latest site and I would like to find something more safeguarded. Do you have any recommendations?
I am using WordPress… and it is not just a blog platform, but a full CMS. 🙂
Sounds like a great idea Niles, I have no doubt you’re going to get plenty of takers and I’m happy to spread the word!
Starting this group is a great idea, as this makes the interaction easier.
Nile,
Nice to know there is a resource out there for when we get stuck with WordPress… and there are those times. So much more fun interacting with humans rather than in the WordPress Forum.
I’m in.
RICK
Nile, this a great initiative.. you will benefit a lot from yoru expert advice and for certain every one else will benefit as well at different levels.
I joined the group… may not ask any questions yet, but for certain I will learn from otehr people questions and answers.
Thanks again
nickc
Love it! Glad to see a WordPress group in such capable hands! You’re definitely one of the most qualified people I know so this is fantastic! Cya there!
Kim
I joined your group the other day 🙂 Yeah I know what your talking about some people don’t really know much in some of those groups…lol. I sent you a PM on Facebook asking if I could link drop one of my comp in WordPress. I will actually be giving away a free WordPress plugin shortly, again. Honestly I would like information on having someone build a custom plugin that would be useful for bloggers. Do you do that type of programming. I will probably need it later on down the road.
its really good when i join wordpress group its really helpful for me. thank you
Hi Nile. This is great info and I’m sure a great resource. I have been stuck on a number of occasions and not being particularly techie can get very frustrated with my lack of knowledge. I will look forward to joining your group and turning to it when I have questions…which is often:) Thanks.
Great idea, Nile! I’m glad you acted on it, and I just clicked through to join. I’m looking forward to more value from you, just as you always give!
Willena
Thank you Nile I am definitely joining the group. Not a week goes by that I don’t have a question about WP.
Hey Nile,
Your new group is a great idea. I have already used it and I am sure it will be a group I use and engage in moving forward.
Thanks for setting it up,
Beth 🙂
Thanks for the heads up, going to join the group now. We can never learn enough about WordPress. Seems never ending, but I try. Appreciate the info.
hi Nile,
this is great! You are obviously a go-to person with regards WordPress. I realize that as a wellness blogger, there is no way I can keep up with all the features and changes to wordpress.
see you there!
Best wishes
Clare
Nice idea, with this wp group i guess you can share better and faster, hopefully i can find useful stuff there
thanks mate
My website is based on wordpress ! Congratulations on creating a really useful resource group, I’ve just click through and joined, and now to spread the word. Thanks
Hi Nile,
Yeah WordPress can be a bit difficult to work with for new users who don’t have any technical knowledge. I’ve also had a lot of things I didn’t know how to configure or set up.
It’s good to have someone to give you directions, especially if you’re a DIY person. I always try to learn new stuff by experimenting with settings but unfortunately because of this I’ve managed to crash my blog a couple of times.
Now I always create a backup before I try something new.
Have a great day Nile, take care.

Hi Nile it is a nice job done by you. I have seen your page and joined it. It is really nice for newbies as well as pro. We can learn a lot from there.
WordPress and blogging is almost 80% of our external marketing and content marketing. Love it, Cant live without it. We’re either using it or teaching a business from Louisville how to.
Great post!
Thanks Jeremy! I missed speaking at WordCamp Louisville 2012, was at 2011’s event as a speaker. WordPress is 100%. You are welcome to join the community… we have a few active people that are big players in the WordPress community and always welcome questions, thoughts, and even love to see people participate and share their WordPress related articles.
Hi Nile,
great idea, creating a group for WordPress questions.
I see it has quite a few contributors, so it will have a great variety.
Thank you for taking the initiative in creating this!
Cheers,
Yorinda
