Where do I go from here?

Skip to episode playlist

Throughout this lab, you were introduced ever so gently to PHP programming and how WordPress uses it. You looked at the basic concepts and constructs in the language. Then you wrote some code to see it work for yourself. Then you went into WordPress Core, Genesis framework, and two different themes to see it in action. Whew, that’s a lot to take in.

Where do you go from here then?

That depends upon your professional goals. What do you want to do? If you want to learn more about PHP, go to the PHP Mastery Library. If you want to learn more WordPress, check out the WordPress fundamentals library where you’ll learn about post types, taxonomies, custom fields, hook events, and more.

And then as you grow, you can do more and more labs here. You’ll build themes and plugins while you learn. That’s the secret sauce here: build as you learn.

Congratulations for completing this lab!

In this lab, you are focusing on user-defined variables, the data they represent, how they are passed and assigned into function parameters' list, naming, and their scope. For Pro members, you learn more about the PHP internals, how variables are linked to their data, and how memory moves around under the hood.
