Miraz Jordan is a WordPress expert, and also writes the Mac Tips blog quoted here from time to time. She has 2 new ebooks available, at very reasonable prices!
First is How to backup your WordPress website, US$4.75. Backing up your WordPress blog or Web site is critical, as servers are not perfect and data can be lost. Yes, hosting companies say they backup and will restore quickly, but the real world is a little different.
The second book, How WordPress is put together is even more valuable, in my opinion, and it’s free! This is another example of Miraz’ generosity towards the rest of us, and I am grateful for it. This blog is a WordPress creation, so I am particularly interested in her new books.
How WordPress is put together

How WordPress is put together briefly explains what WordPress is, and then uses screenshots and concise text to show what files and folders make up WordPress, and what their purposes are. It refers to version 2.8 of WordPress.
The book also explains which folders contain unique files, and which shouldn’t be touched, except by experts.
